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

This is Anfield!

For decades, countless away team players have trembled at the sight of this sign.

The England team, in particular, is reminded of this every time they come here.

Liverpool is the dominant force in England, a heavyweight powerhouse!

Over the past 10 years, Liverpool have plummeted from the peak of the Istanbul night to the bottom, experiencing their lowest point.

"If you're feeling down, think of Liverpool!"

After Benitez's dismissal, the dark era of Hodgson and Dalglish began.

Liverpool seemed to see hope for a revival when Brendan Rodgers took over.

At Anfield Stadium, red flags fluttered, and before the final whistle blew, the stadium was already filled with Liverpool's famous anthem.

You Never Walk Alone

The massive chorus of tens of thousands of people made the Bayer Leverkusen players look up and around.

"Damn it, this scene is utterly awful!"

Son Heung-min couldn't help but curse inwardly, envying the home atmosphere at Anfield, while also feeling somewhat uneasy.

"Relax, bro, you'll be in these kinds of situations a lot in the future anyway."

"What do you mean?"

Son Heung-min looked completely bewildered.

Lu Xiao just smiled and didn't explain.

This "butterfly" of mine has already flapped its wings and rewritten the timeline.

De Bruyne even came to play for Bayer Leverkusen, Belgium reached the semi-finals of the 2014 World Cup, and Leverkusen won the title 10 years early...

It's still uncertain whether Son Heung-min will be able to play for Tottenham.

In any case, his market value has increased by at least 2000 million euros compared to the same period in the original timeline.

The original transfer to Tottenham was only 3000 million.

According to Transfermarkt, Son Heung-min is now worth €3500 million. It's unclear whether Tottenham can afford him.

In short, today's match against Liverpool relied not only on Lu Xiao's performance and De Bruyne's,

Sun Ge's threat on the left flank is equally crucial.

At that time, Liverpool's right-back was Glenn Jansen in his prime, with incredibly fast recovery speed and excellent performance in both attack and defense.

Son Heung-min needs to perform at an exceptional level to create a breakthrough.

"Lu?"

"no problem!"

On the other side, De Bruyne winked at Lu Xiao before kicking off.

Brothers understand each other instantly without needing explanations.

Lu Xiao and De Bruyne plan to use the kickoff to give Liverpool a "surprise"!

"10, 9, 8... 3, 2, 1—"

beep—

The entire stadium chanted a countdown, and the Hungarian referee, Kassai, sounded the battle cry.

"Dear viewers of LeSports, what you are seeing now is..."

After switching sports teams, Zhan Jun almost blurted out Sina Sports in his excitement.

Today's match is against his most beloved teams; they're both his favorites.

On one side is Liverpool, the home team that has been supported for many years. Zhan Jun's commentary is usually jokingly referred to by fans as having a "Merseyshire accent".

On one hand, there's Bayer Leverkusen, the team I've supported for the past two years, simply because of the presence of the rising Chinese star Lu Xiao.

Zhan Jun's voice trembled as he commented on this fierce battle.

"Liverpool are wearing their traditional red kits, while Bayer Leverkusen are wearing their away black kits..."

Zhan Jun was just about to introduce the starting lineups for both sides,

After Leverkusen kicked off, Firmino flicked the ball to Lu Xiao, who then passed it back to De Bruyne.

Then several people simultaneously surged forward!

De Bruyne feigned a back pass, fooling striker Sterling's pressing, and suddenly turned and moved forward!

Liverpool's overall formation maintained a clear forward push.

De Bruyne didn't even look closely before launching a long diagonal pass down the right flank straight into the attacking third!

"...Huh?! This ball! It's not offside!!"

Zhan Jun was shocked!

When the camera captured Lu Xiao, he had already perfectly controlled the ball in mid-air and created a 2-meter gap between himself and defender Lovren!

It looked like an obvious offside, but the Liverpool defenders hadn't even realized it before they all raised their hands to signal to the linesman.

At first, the fans didn't take it seriously, thinking that offside goals weren't a big deal.

However, the next second...

The linesman continued running forward, while the referee stretched out his arms to signal for the attack to continue!

That ball wasn't offside?!

While Liverpool's defense was complaining,

Lu Xiao, Son Heung-min, and Firmino have already charged into the penalty area!

Goalkeeper Mignolet just wanted to curse!

Facing three people alone, I'm going to be damned!

Lu Xiao, equipped with the "Bee Joy Return" template, displayed perfect ball control and gave Mignolet no chance.

"Lu Xiao... wants to pass it to Son Heung-min..."

"A feint!!! Fooled Mignolet, then another step!!"

"Lu Xiao—sinks into the empty net!!"

"Just 11 seconds into the game! Bayer Leverkusen launch a lightning attack and take the lead! 1-0 away to Liverpool!"

"Unfortunately, this goal didn't break the record for the fastest goal in Champions League history..."

"Because the fastest goal was also set by Lu Xiao, who scored in just 9 seconds during last season's Champions League group stage match against Real Sociedad!"

Zhan Jun knows Lu Xiao's data like the back of his hand!

Two of the fastest goals in Champions League history were scored by Lu Xiao!

Both were Champions League openers, both were lightning-fast attacks, and both scored in the same way.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers angrily threw a water bottle on the ground and cursed loudly!

I already warned you to be wary of this move!

What are the defenders doing?!

Liverpool defenders Lovren and Skrtel were also helpless.

They were indeed aware of the problem.

The initial plan was to use an offside trap tactic to resolve the situation.

Unfortunately, De Bruyne's pass was too insidious. He aimed to switch the ball to the left, but suddenly sent out a long through ball that was impossible to defend against!

De Bruyne – Lu Xiao

The connection between the Belgian duo dealt Liverpool a blow right from the start!

……

After the celebrations, Leverkusen had a one-goal advantage at the start of the game, allowing them to focus on counter-attacking.

"Leverkusen counter-attack!! Son Heung-min tries to break past Glen Jensen on the left... It's difficult for him to get past, Jensen is very aggressive in defense."

"Son Heung-min holds the ball, a good cross-field pass, Lassbender passes to De Bruyne, De Bruyne plays a through ball down the flank!"

"Firmino makes a run forward, then passes across!"

"Lu Xiao—"

boom--

Near the penalty spot, Lu Xiao withstood Skrtel's defense and unleashed a powerful shot towards the goal.

He's already paying close attention to the shooting angle.

Mignolet was in excellent form today, making a spectacular diving save to deny Lu Xiao's shot.

The away team's stands erupted in applause. Fans and teammates alike were very satisfied with Lu Xiao's shot, recognizing its threat and the creation of a corner kick opportunity.

Lu Xiao himself was still not very satisfied.

"Not enough!"

Lu Xiao brought the [Bee Joy Return] template to play a role in counterattacks.

With the fusion value nearing 100%, a victory against Liverpool in this match could potentially grant a fusion value boost, accelerating the growth rate.

Lu Xiao is already incredibly excited for the upcoming new template.

With their current abilities alone, they can certainly exert sufficient combat power.

But when a goalkeeper is in top form,

Lu Xiao's shots still don't always result in a goal.

Even Mignolet could stop Lu Xiao.

Facing Barcelona, ​​who were legendary during the MSN era, they might have a tough time.

Lu Xiao needs to improve his shooting and finishing ability as soon as possible!

Sorry, Liverpool.

In order to become stronger, I have no choice but to sacrifice you all.
