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

Li Xin walked through the campus, feeling refreshed.

"Hey, Xinzi, you look so energetic today!"

"Of course, people are in high spirits when they have good news!"

"What good news? Share it with the guys. Didn't you go back to the dorm last night...?"

"What are you thinking! I'm happy because Lu Shen won the game."

"Yeah, I watched the game against Mainz yesterday too. As expected of Lukashenko, it was so awesome!"

"Seriously, I wasn't even planning to watch since Lu Shen wasn't starting, thank goodness I didn't miss it!"

"You guys think it would be great if Lu Shen joined the national football team."

"Belgium is great; they might even win the next World Cup. The Chinese national team... they'll corrupt my Lukaku god sooner or later. Who's going to let you start if they don't pay you?"

"That's true."

When the topic of football comes up, the guys in the dorm chat about it with great enthusiasm.

Bayer Leverkusen staged a remarkable comeback to defeat Mainz 4-3 away from home yesterday, much to everyone's delight.

An ordinary league match even made it into the top 10 trending topics on Weibo.

Whenever Lu Xiao appears, regardless of the competition, he inevitably becomes a topic of discussion.

Everyone got into a good chat,

Li Xin chuckled to himself, keeping his achievements hidden.

Last night, we were indeed interrupted at a crucial moment by Lukaku's goal.

Li Xin's attention inevitably fell on football.

I thought Xiaoyue would be angry, but I didn't expect...

"Hey, Xinzi, your girlfriend, let's get out of here first."

Upon seeing Xiaoyue on campus, several male students in the dormitory gave the couple ambiguous looks, leaving them alone.

"Ouch!"

Seeing that Xiaoyue was having difficulty moving, Li Xin quickly stepped forward to support her.

"Hasn't it recovered yet?"

"You tell me, it's all your fault!"

Xiaoyue angrily punched Li Xin's arm, but Li Xin hugged her tightly.

I neglected her last night because I was watching the game, but Xiaoyue wasn't angry at all.

Instead, they were drawn to Lu Xiao's goal, and the two naturally put their arms around each other to watch the rest of the game.

Lu Xiao first scored a stunning long-range goal from outside the penalty area to pull one back for his team.

They then combined with De Bruyne to launch two textbook counter-attacks.

Lu Xiao and De Bruyne each scored a goal inside the penalty area, leveling the score at 3-3!

The fluid and unstoppable attack drew cheers even from Xiaoyue, who knew nothing about football.

In the final stoppage time...

De Bruyne took a short corner, and Lu Xiao suddenly unleashed a shot from the top corner of the penalty area!

The arc, seemingly a pass but actually a shot, caught the goalkeeper off guard, and nestled precisely into the corner!

3-4!

Bayer Leverkusen, the away team, pulled off a stunning comeback and won the game!

Lu Xiao came on as a substitute and was involved in 4 goals in 20 minutes! 3 assists and 1 goal strongly saved Leverkusen.

Continue to put pressure on Bayern Munich from their second-place position in the Bundesliga!

After the match, Li Xin excitedly kissed Xiao Yue several times. And so it went...

The two continued their previous activity.

Distracted by the exciting competition, Xiaoyue forgot about her nervousness and became completely absorbed in it.

……

Lu Xiao never imagined that he would only come on as a substitute and lead the team to a comeback victory against Mainz.

Unintentionally, he helped an ordinary sophomore complete an important lesson in his life.

"Lu, you came on as a substitute in the last Bundesliga match and helped the team come back to win. What does this victory mean?"

"Our goal this season is still to defend our Bundesliga title."

The entire Leverkusen team worked very hard, and we deserve to lift the salad bowl.

With three other fronts to fight, everyone is under a lot of pressure.

This victory might help relieve some pressure and allow everyone to be in better form for the upcoming knockout match against Real Madrid.

"As for tomorrow's Champions League quarter-final first leg at the BayArena..."

Are Bayer Leverkusen confident of avenging their loss to Real Madrid?

Pre-Champions League quarter-final press conference

Lu Xiao, representing the players, sat with Hyypia at the podium.

I wanted Hypia to answer that question.

As a result, coach Hyypia winked at Lu Xiao, signaling him to answer himself.

Press officer and club PR manager Hannah Moir also gave Lu Xiao a thumbs-up, signaling him to answer boldly.

Lu Xiao flashed his signature handsome smile at the reporters present:

"Of course, being eliminated in the semifinals last year was a regret for both of us."

Compared to being eliminated in the beginning,

Falling short of the final is even more unforgettable.

Therefore, we will go all out tomorrow to show Real Madrid a different side of Leverkusen.

I believe we won't have any regrets this time.

Half an hour later, in the same spot.

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti and star player Cristiano Ronaldo sat in front of the media.

A reporter from Marca deliberately raised a pointed question.

"During the press conference just now, Leverkusen's Lu Xiao stated that he wants to avenge his loss to Real Madrid tomorrow. Ronaldo, what's your response to that?"

Cristiano Ronaldo's expression immediately tightened at the mention of Lu Xiao.

revenge?

I still want revenge!

Leaving aside the fact that they were defeated twice by Bayer Leverkusen in the group stage,

Cristiano Ronaldo still harbors resentment towards Lu Xiao for Portugal's elimination by Belgium in the World Cup.

How many World Cups can a player participate in during their professional career?

Cristiano Ronaldo debuted very early, starting in 2006, and has played in three World Cups to date.

He has also reached the decline stage of his career at the age of 30.

I don't know if I'll be able to continue leading the team in 2018.

It's all that awful Asian's fault!

"Real Madrid is the most successful club in the world. We have the best coach and the best squad in the world."

I believe these two knockout rounds will be similar to last season...

No, it's not the same.

We will play even better than last season!

No matter how you analyze it, the advantage is in my hands!

This time, we will absolutely not give them any chance!

Bayer Leverkusen is a strong team; reaching the round of 16 is enough for them.

It was clear that Cristiano Ronaldo was very aggressive during the press conference.

The pre-match war of words has begun!

Only Ancelotti stood by, looking rather helpless.

You've said everything, what else can I say?

Real Madrid is not invincible, and Bayer Leverkusen is not as weak as everyone thinks.

It's hard to say what will happen in the two rounds.

Cristiano Ronaldo, however, seemed to have Bayer Leverkusen completely under his control.

Appropriate self-confidence can help performance in a competition, but excessive self-confidence is arrogance.

"Cristiano...actually, we should pay more attention to our opponents, that Lu..."

"Carlo, stop talking."

Cristiano Ronaldo waved his hand to interrupt Ancelotti.

No matter how world-class a coach is, he doesn't really have much authority in front of Cristiano Ronaldo, the "leader" of Real Madrid.

"You can leave it to me tomorrow."

Cristiano Ronaldo left without looking back, leaving Ancelotti with a helpless sigh.

Cristiano Ronaldo in his "Golden-edged Ronaldo" form this year is certainly strong.

I'm afraid he'll be blinded by "revenge" tomorrow and make some rash decisions on the field.

Unlimited firing rights are a double-edged sword; while killing the enemy, they may also hurt yourself.

"God bless."

Looking back at the empty stands of the BayArena, Ancelotti made the sign of the cross.

……

The stands, which were quiet the day before,

The venue was packed by the second day!

More than 5 fans dressed in black resembled a massive army of tens of thousands in black armor, their momentum overwhelming!

"Leverkusen Allez!!!"

"Leverkusen Allez!!!"

"Leverkusen Allez!!!"

Champions League knockout stage matchday!

Bayer Leverkusen host Real Madrid!

Lu Xiao and his teammates lined up and shook hands with Real Madrid's "Galácticos" star players.

Tensions are high, and a major battle is imminent!

At the same time, at least hundreds of millions of people around the world were watching the game.

In the broadcast footage, the absolute core players of both teams,

Lu Xiao shakes hands with Cristiano Ronaldo!

The moment when the two were locked in a fierce confrontation was clearly captured by the on-site photographer!
