Soccer: Maxed-out ball control, the skill is too overpowered.

"Lu Xiao, you bastard! You're something else!"

"What, haven't you always wanted to have a match with me? Come on."

"Damn it! Don't get cocky. We Koreans are very strong. Don't underestimate us!"

"Don't worry, we will definitely not underestimate our opponent."

The World Cup schedule is very tight.

We haven't even had a few days to rest after playing Algeria, and another big battle is looming ahead!

Belgium vs. South Korea!

In the players' tunnel, he looked at Son Heung-min, then glanced at the other South Korean players around him out of the corner of his eye.

Lu Xiao's lips curled into only two words—cruel!

Underestimating the South Korean team? Absolutely not!

He wished the game could go on indefinitely, scoring as many goals as he could until he could no longer play.

As a true descendant of the Yellow Emperor,

The resentment towards the neighbor's mundane life and the little stick is innate.

No mobilization is needed.

Just do it!

"hiss--"

Son Heung-min's bad premonition has come true once again!

As Lu Xiao's teammate, he was already very familiar with Lu Xiao's expressions.

Seeing him slightly narrow his eyes and a mischievous smile curl at the corner of his mouth, I knew...

Lu Xiao is definitely going to get serious!

In the league, Lu Xiao always had this expression whenever they fell behind or Leverkusen were dominated by their opponents.

The opponents are often in dire straits.

Son Heung-min never imagined that one day he would become this guy's opponent!

"Damn it!"

Son Heung-min still held onto a sliver of hope.

Hopefully, the Belgian team will be all show and no substance, a mere pretty face with no substance.

The team's performance against Algeria clearly showed that the entire team was not at their best.

If the South Korean team plays well, they might have a chance!

Led by the referee, the players from both sides filed out of the players' tunnel.

The moment I stepped onto the green field, I heard familiar cheers!

To hear such voices in a foreign land,

Lu Xiao's heart was stirred!

Thump thump—thump thump thump—

"Go Lu Xiao!!"

Thump thump—thump thump thump—

"Go Lu Xiao!!!"

Speak standard Mandarin with perfect pronunciation!

Looking up at the stands of the São Paulo Stadium, all I could see were five-star red flags fluttering in the air!

Many fans excitedly held up banners covered with Chinese characters to cheer on Lu Xiao.

"Lu Xiao! This is a blessing from our motherland!"

"I've traveled thousands of miles to see you! Go Lu Xiao!"

"We will definitely defeat South Korea! Lu Shen is awesome!"

Lu Xiao then remembered that he had come to the São Paulo Stadium before the match.

As one of the "image ambassadors" of the Belgian national team, he was once again interviewed by their partner, LeTV.

The intern reporter was the same pretty young lady I met last time.

Wearing glasses, Chao Yiwen appeared very excited:

"According to statistics, nearly 10,000 fans at the São Paulo Stadium today are from the Chinese community around the world, as well as fans who flew in from China. Everyone is here to cheer you on. Is there anything you would like to say to the fans in your homeland?"

Lu Xiao was in a hurry to warm up with the team at the time, so he only gave a brief reply.

"I won't let my country's fans down. I'll give it my all with my teammates and beat the bat..."

Fortunately, Lu Xiao had a flash of inspiration and changed his tune.

"To repay the wonderful fans of our motherland."

It's not convenient to say things like "beat up the Koreans" in the public media.

In particular, these interviews conducted by LeTV are often posted on external websites for publicity, which could easily lead to disputes and be used against them by others.

But netizens in China will definitely understand what Lu Xiao means!

Lu Xiao himself didn't expect that he originally drew inspiration from an interview with pole vault champion Xue Changrui.

The result was the Incheon Asian Games, which took place three months later.

In an interview, Xue Changrui also blurted out, "My next opponent is a Japanese player... a Japanese player who is living a good life."

After the incident, Xue Changrui said that he had a sudden inspiration and thought of Lu Xiao's interview, but fortunately he changed his tune in time.

……

Back at the San Paolo Stadium, the epic battle between Belgium and South Korea is about to begin!

Domestic media outlets have already given this battle extensive coverage.

The number of spectators was almost double that of the previous Belgium vs. Algeria match!

Everyone wants to see how Lu Xiao "beats up the Koreans"!

Today, Liu Jianhong is the commentator.

I'm envious that He Wei and Duan Xuan can frequently commentate on Bundesliga matches and Lu Xiao's games.

He can finally commentate on Lu Xiao's football games himself!

Liu Jianhong has worked at CCTV for so many years, and when he was commentating on a World Cup group stage match, his hands were trembling a little from nervousness.

"...South Korea and Belgium have faced each other twice in history."

In the 1990 World Cup group stage, Belgium defeated South Korea 2-0.

In the 1998 World Cup group stage, the two sides drew 1-1.

In this World Cup, Belgium had a tough first match against the relatively weaker Algeria.

Belgium faced a deficit at one point.

The starting lineup struggled to break the deadlock until Lu Xiao came on as a substitute in the 80th minute.

This remarkable young player revitalized Belgium's attack, ultimately contributing one goal and one assist with an outstanding performance.

A last-minute winner against Algeria secured their first victory in the World Cup.

The South Korean team showed great resilience in their match against Russia, ultimately drawing 1-1.

Belgium currently leads their group with 3 points.

South Korea and Russia both have 1 point, tied for second place in the group.

Algeria is at the bottom of the group...

"Today's battle between the two sides is crucial and will directly determine the qualification situation in Group H of the World Cup."

If Belgium can defeat their opponents, they will advance to the next round and have a chance to finish first in the group.

With the match ended in a draw, Belgium has a relatively high chance of advancing from the group stage.

If South Korea wins

The situation in Group H is about to become chaotic.

Therefore, Belgium's head coach Wilmots attaches great importance to today's match.

Lu Xiao will be included in the starting lineup!

He also became the youngest starting player in World Cup history!

A 17-year-old's World Cup debut!

And he's a Chinese player!

The sense of accomplishment that fans can't get from the national team is only found in Lu Xiao.

That's amazing!

In fact, when the Belgian Football Association officially announced Lu Xiao's inclusion in the national team,

There are still many dissenting voices within the East.

According to relevant regulations, Lu Xiao can choose his nationality or become a naturalized national football player after turning 18.

If he wants to join the national football team, there is indeed a lot of room for maneuver.

Since Lu Xiao became famous, the Chinese Football Association has contacted Mendes several times, hoping to discuss the naturalization of Lu Xiao.

But Lu Xiao knew all too well how the national football team developed and how deep the waters ran.

In particular, the Chinese Football Association has spent a lot of money to train many star players.

Elkeson, Luo Guofu, Serginho, Goulart...

is that useful?

Even those who are naturalized can't get a chance to play!

Even if they watch the team lose the game and play extremely poorly, they are unwilling to let these naturalized players play.

Tiezi explained the ins and outs of the matter after he went in.

It's simply a matter of shared interests.

It's obvious that Lu Xiao has no vested interests with them; even if he were naturalized and became a national team player, it would be pointless.

Even if their abilities surpass those of the national football team players by many levels,

He'll still be stuck on the bench.

Instead of doing that, Lu Xiao might as well play in the World Cup in Belgium.

He performed well in the last game, so he will have a starting opportunity in this game!

More and more fans are realizing this, and they all hope that Lu Xiao can ignite a spark in Belgium and in Europe.

At least preserve a trace of the Chinese bloodline on the World Cup stage!

At least one Chinese player can thrash the South Korean team on the World Cup stage!

"Here we go! In this battle, victory is the only option; defeat is not an option!"

Standing in the center circle, ready to kick off, Lu Xiao's eyes were incredibly sharp!
