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

The controversy surrounding Lu Xiao and Cristiano Ronaldo lasted for a week before it subsided.

Fans and supporters from both sides are arguing fiercely online.

Many netizens, either just watching the spectacle, trying to gain attention, or simply unaware of the facts, followed suit.

These days, every time Lu Xiao opens his phone, the scene is comparable to a fierce online battle of words in the era of short videos.

As one of the main characters in this online feud, I actually did nothing at all!

It inexplicably became the center of an internet storm.

Fortunately, at least half of the people were on their side, and most fans of other teams were able to view the situation objectively.

Many rational Real Madrid fans are also well aware that...

Bayer Leverkusen's last-minute victory over Real Madrid was purely due to Real Madrid's failure to capitalize on their opportunities.

Cristiano Ronaldo is strong, but he also wasted a lot of shots.

Bale, Benzema, Modric, Kroos, Marcelo, Pepe—if they had just seized even one opportunity…

Real Madrid also have a chance to finish first in the group.

If you're not good at playing, you can't blame anyone else.

However, extreme fans are unable to accept defeat and their narrow-mindedness makes them prone to getting stuck in a rut.

At first, Lu Xiao was just watching the show.

After getting tired of seeing similar comments, Lu Xiao simply stopped paying attention to online discussions.

They focused entirely on training and the competition.

Just play your own game!

……

Bundesliga Round 10: Bayern Munich vs. Borussia Dortmund

Hamburg vs Bayer Leverkusen

Playing two consecutive away games will place high demands on the physical condition and form of Leverkusen players.

Only four days had passed, and the players' physical condition had not yet fully recovered.

Lu Xiao and De Bruyne are temporarily on the bench, while Son Heung-min, with his stronger physique and ample stamina, has temporarily entered the starting lineup.

Before the match, Son Heung-min was still showing off to Lu Xiao.

"Aigoo—I'm the starter, you're the substitute! This day has finally come!"

"No problem. Since you're already prepared to lead the team single-handedly, you're capable of performing well even if Kevin and I don't pass the ball, right?"

"Ani! Ani!! Don't do that, Lu! I was just kidding!"

Son Heung-min panicked.

Although Lu Xiao scores many goals, as a number 10, he is the tactical core of the attacking third.

He often draws defenders into key positions before passing the ball to them.

Son Heung-min thus received a lot of firepower from Lu Xiao.

De Bruyne goes without saying.

Since joining the team, De Bruyne's passing has been a joy for the entire team.

The "Belgian duo" have become the "de facto figures" who effectively control possession of the ball at Bayer Leverkusen.

Let's assume the two of them team up to be ball hogs, and can do whatever they want on the team.

Son Heung-min offended them both; he was just asking for trouble.

Therefore, they dared not even entertain the thought of mocking, and were in a complete panic.

"I was just kidding."

Lu Xiao is magnanimous enough not to get angry over a joke.

Anyone who gets angry easily lacks confidence in their own abilities and harbors deep-seated inferiority complex.

Lu Xiao's growth over the past two seasons, and his current achievements, have given him enough confidence to lead the team to good results.

Furthermore, with the system backing him, is there any problem with him securing a core position in the team?

Even if Sasha and Hypia kicked everyone else out, they wouldn't be willing to kick themselves out.

Lu Xiao simply wanted to tease him.

According to predictions, this guy will be the future number one player in Asia, and he once made a provocative 3-0 gesture towards Chinese fans during a national team match.

It's not wrong to bully Son Heung-min before he becomes famous, right?

"Alright, anyway, the first half really depends on your performance."

We can't expect Dortmund to step up their game.

Hamburg had previously defeated Dortmund 1-0, so they still have the strength.

The midfield maestro is Rafael van der Vaart, a former playmaker for Real Madrid, Tottenham Hotspur, and the Dutch national team.

His passing and playmaking can sometimes be deadly.

The key defender is Arsenal's "Crayon Shin-chan" Djourou, whose defense is very solid when he is in good form, making him a pillar of strength.

The forward line also includes former Bayern Munich player Olic and Croatian international.

Playing Hamburg away from home is no easy match.

And today's match between Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund,

Borussia Dortmund lacked the ability to prevent Bayern Munich from dropping points.

This means that if Leverkusen drops points, Bayern Munich will further widen the gap between them.

If the gap widens to 8 or 9 points, it will be difficult to contend for the championship this season.

We must win today, no matter what!

"Don't worry, leave it to me!"

Before Son Heung-min entered the game, he gave the two men a thumbs-up and smiled confidently.

……

"Damn it!! This is too hard!"

When Lu Xiao and De Bruyne were not present

Son Heung-min seems to have returned to the helplessness he felt during his time in Hamburg.

Facing his former teammate and old teammates, Son Heung-min tried hard to break through, but he was unable to get past Hamburg's defense.

Dickmeier, who is matched up against Son Heung-min, averages 1.9 tackles per game in the Bundesliga and is very familiar with Son's dribbling patterns.

Son Heung-min couldn't gain any advantage at all!

"Damn it!!"

Son Heung-min's breakthrough was intercepted again, almost leading to a counter-attack by Hamburg. He then fell to the ground and angrily slammed his fist on the grass.

So here's the question:

Son Heung-min's performance has made him the most useful offensive player on the team.

Neither Kiessling, Julian Brandt, nor substitute midfielder Castro made any impact in the attack.

If it weren't for the outstanding performances of center-back Rudiger and goalkeeper Leno...

They might have already been kicked to death by Hamburg's 2-0 victory.

"Bayer Leverkusen, this is a team of young people."

Zhan Jun shook his head helplessly.

"The last match was a classic battle, a comeback against Real Madrid at the Bernabéu, showcasing high-level football and unwavering perseverance to the world."

"I never expected them to play like a Bundesliga relegation team against Hamburg today..."

The difference between the upper and lower limits is really quite large.

German fans are also wondering,

Does the fact that Lu Xiao and De Bruyne aren't present mean that these guys won't attack?

Sasha finally couldn't hold back any longer until the 70th minute of the second half.

"Lu, Kevin, change your clothes... so fast?!"

Sasha turned around and saw that Lu Xiao and De Bruyne had already changed into their away red jerseys and were ready to play.

"Of course! I can't wait to kick their goal down!"

"Yes, it's necessary to strengthen the attack."

"Alright, let's leave the rest aside for now. Go up there and see how things go. There aren't many adjustments to the offensive tactics for now."

After briefly explaining some details, Leverkusen requested a substitution.

Fusion Value: 91%

Huh?

It's grown again?

Before he could think it through, Castro and Julian Brandt had already left the field.

"Lu, it's up to you now."

Julian Brandt was a bit frustrated; he finally got a starting opportunity, but his performance was less than satisfactory.

He still had to be kept on the bench by De Bruyne.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Lu Xiao patted him on the shoulder and ran onto the field with De Bruyne.

It just so happens that left-back Nathan Ake throws the ball in from the far post; the young players have a lot of fancy tricks up their sleeves.

He quickly gave Lu Xiao a wink, signaling him to run towards the restricted area.

Lu Xiao reacted quickly and understood instantly!

The moment he stepped onto the court, he rushed towards the opponent's territory.

"Alright, Lu Xiao and De Bruyne, the Belgian duo, have come on as substitutes. Leverkusen has 15 minutes left. Hopefully..."

"Ouch!! That ball!!"

Even Zhan Jun didn't react in time. After Nathan Ake got permission from the referee, he threw the ball out of bounds!

A grenade flew into the restricted area!

Lu Xiao practically sprinted from the substitutes' area all the way to the penalty area, received a throw-in from Nathan Ake, and with a divine touch of the outside of his left foot, bypassed Djourou.

He dribbled past the ball to create a shooting angle, then volleyed it into the net!

Swah——

The entire audience erupted in uproar!

"The thief's ball is here!!! Lu Xiao!!!"

"Remember the game-winning substitute from last season?"

"Lu Xiao came on as a substitute and broke the deadlock for Bayer Leverkusen in just 5 seconds!"

"Away team leading 1-0!!"

Hamburg midfielder Rafael van der Vaart was stunned and questioned his existence!

No?

Is that correct?

Son Heung-min's legs went weak and he knelt down on the spot.

"Damn it!! Does it have to be this intense?!"
