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

"Cheers!!!"

"Cheers!!"

In the pub next to the Atlético Madrid Wanda Metropolitano Stadium,

Lu Xiao, Julian Brandt, Kissling, Lars Bender

Also, Griezmann, Torres, Saul, and Koke.

Two distinct groups of people,

They were just battling it out on the court.

Now, however, they sit together, drinking and celebrating.

Anyone who didn't know better would think the two sides were playing a fixed match.

They deliberately eliminated Benfica.

In reality, anyone with a discerning eye can understand what's going on in the competition.

Both sides gave their all in the match.

Especially Lu Xiao,

This kid really wants to win; he desperately wants to score another goal to turn the game around.

The Leverkusen fans were terrified.

Fortunately, everything turned out alright in the end, and both sides advanced to the round of 16.

Spaniards and Germans have absolutely nothing in common.

Kiessling and Torres were previously rivals and had no friendship whatsoever.

But it was Lu Xiao who became the link...

After drinking, the two put their arms around each other's shoulders and became sworn brothers.

Lu Xiao was secretly astonished by the scene.

Griezmann, the key midfielder for the French national team,

Surprisingly, he had a very pleasant conversation with Julian Brandt.

Torres and Kiessling,

A world-renowned former striker, a key player in winning the 2008 European Championship final.

A low-profile center forward who has remained unnoticed at Bayer Leverkusen and only has a certain reputation in the Bundesliga.

The two then embraced.

This section explores ball control and dribbling techniques within the penalty area, as well as key shooting skills.

Lu Xiao rubbed his eyes.

The scene was indeed a bit eerie.

In truth, the link between the two groups was Lu Xiao himself.

After the match, I wanted to celebrate qualifying with my Atletico Madrid teammates.

I happened to run into my former teammate who was out for a walk in the tunnel.

After discussing it, the two sides decided to simply drink together.

"By the way, Lu, why don't we call it a day?"

Lars Bender kindly reminded him.

"You have to play Barcelona in a few days, so try to get plenty of rest."

The last time they faced Barcelona in Leverkusen,

Everyone was disgusted by Barcelona's off-field tactics.

Although UEFA took action to punish referee Cakir after the match,

Due to "inappropriate" officiating, there were multiple instances of missed calls and incorrect judgments during the match, violating refereeing regulations.

Cakir was banned for one year by UEFA.

A fine of 3 euros.

However, the investigation into La Liga's Barcelona team raises questions about whether they bribed referees and whether any improper transactions occurred.

The behind-the-scenes stories sparked discussions among netizens worldwide.

Since there is no clear evidence that Barcelona bribed the referee.

The "Camp Nou incident" was ultimately characterized as a "problem with the referee's personal ability."

Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

The time is still under investigation.

Lu Xiao didn't expect to find anything out.

It's definitely going to fizzle out.

Bayer Leverkusen ultimately won, defying unfair refereeing decisions to decisively eliminate Barcelona.

The fans didn't pursue the matter.

This matter is now in the past.

But the Leverkusen players are still disgusted by the unfair treatment they receive on the field.

They were the first to witness the event.

I truly experienced Barcelona's numerous misjudgments regarding fouls.

I truly understand how disgusting referees can be.

therefore,

Bayer Leverkusen players still deeply dislike Barcelona.

Especially Lars Bender, he was absolutely righteous and hated evil!

"We must teach Barcelona a lesson they deserve! Crush them!"

"Don't worry, I won't show any mercy."

Lu Xiao was full of confidence.

……

The Champions League group stage has concluded.

The result of finishing first in the group and advancing to the knockout stage has given everyone at Atlético Madrid a sense of reassurance.

Although everyone knew during the draw that Atletico Madrid would definitely advance.

But I only felt at ease when we actually qualified.

The knockout stage will be held in February next year.

During this period, everyone can finally devote all their energy and wholeheartedly to the league championship.

They have won all 14 rounds and are currently ranked 1st in La Liga.

That's really a bit of an exaggeration.

Lu Xiao had never even dreamed of seeing this scene.

It's probably the butterfly effect that changed history.

2014-2015 season,

Original timeline,

After winning the championship, the whole team lost their ambition.

The top-tier, god-like lineup is gradually collapsing, with Neymar and Suarez showing signs of decline.

Xavi is nearing retirement.

The Champions League title became the swan song of Barcelona's "Dream Team" era.

However, they are, after all, world-class forces capable of directly confronting adversaries.

Leverkusen's interference

This caused Barcelona to miss out on the Champions League title they should have won.

Their defeat spurred them to greater efforts.

The team's cohesion was unprecedented, which led to a surge in fighting power that was not present in the original timeline.

They seem determined to win back the Champions League title.

At the same time, Real Madrid, after years of turmoil, has now entered a golden age of steady growth.

According to the original timeline, Real Madrid was about to win their third consecutive Champions League title.

Besieged by wolves in front and tigers behind

Atletico Madrid have no reason to relax.

They only had a short break after the match.

The team quickly returned to intense preparations.

……

The Champions League group stage victory seems insignificant.

It was only briefly mentioned by various media outlets.

Whether on the internet or in traditional media, all the attention is focused on this La Liga "top-of-the-table clash," "El Clásico 2.0"!

It's often said that Real Madrid and Barcelona are the El Clásico.

After Atletico Madrid's rise

Their battle against Barcelona is equally captivating.

Moreover, there's Lu Xiao, a controversial figure with a deep-seated feud with Barcelona.

This season's El Clásico 2.0 saw even higher viewership than version 1.0.

According to incomplete statistics from Marca,

The anticipation level for Lu Xiao vs. Messi and Lu Xiao vs. MSN is high.

Far surpasses Ronaldo vs. Messi.

The Messi-Ronaldo rivalry has been going on for years; I'm tired of it.

Luis Scola looks better against Messi.

Spain, England, Germany, and other countries have already begun to hype up the match.

Topics related to the East are also gaining popularity.

Preview of the pivotal La Liga Round 15 match: MSN in top form, Lukaku full of fighting spirit!

Messi: I'm so glad Luka came to La Liga, it makes revenge much easier.

Neymar reveals: Barcelona will always remember the pain of being eliminated from the Champions League and will definitely win it this year.

According to Dongqiudi News, with the La Liga title match approaching, Messi revealed in an interview with Mundo Deportivo that...

He has been hoping to face Lu Xiao again since the Champions League semi-final defeat last season.

Therefore, Messi was looking forward to this match when Lu Xiao joined Atletico Madrid.

Messi said, "Our entire Barcelona team is eager for revenge..."

"Tencent Sports reposted: With the La Liga key match approaching, Neymar recently said in an interview on Catalan television..."

The pain of being eliminated by Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League semi-finals last season still looms large in the hearts of all Barcelona players.

Everyone remembers that feeling.

Therefore, the team is currently very united.

Hopefully, this match will help me overcome my mental block and defeat Atletico Madrid head-on, as well as Lu Xiao's team.

Neymar firmly believes that Barcelona will definitely stand on the highest podium in Europe...

The four days flew by.

Lu Xiao seemed to be drinking with Lars Bender and Keithling just a moment ago.

Next second,

Same hotel, same street scene.

Atletico Madrid's entire team has checked into a hotel outside their home stadium, preparing to rest and recharge for the tough battle the following day.

"Lu, why aren't you upstairs sleeping? The lights will be out soon."

Simone had wanted to come out for a smoke.

I saw Lu Xiao standing quietly at the entrance of the hotel lobby, gazing at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium not far away.

Atletico Madrid has a strong sense of discipline.

They are particularly attentive to pre-match management.

Simone couldn't help but come over and remind him.

"Coach, it's time to go to sleep."

Lu Xiao just wanted to go downstairs for a walk to clear her head.

The Atletico Madrid teammates seemed a bit nervous; none of them could sleep, so they gathered in Lu Xiao's room to chat.

Lu Xiao found them too noisy, so she decided to go for a walk.

Just then, Chloe made a video call.

The two got so engrossed in their conversation that they didn't notice each other.

More than 40 minutes have passed.

Lu Xiao was stunned when she saw the call duration on her phone.

They didn't talk about anything profound.

It was Chloe rambling on and on, sharing her daily life at university in Munich.

Let me vent about the professor, complain about the classmates around me, and tell you about the interesting things that happened on campus.

Lu Xiao wasn't interested in these mundane family matters.

But it's surprisingly catchy.

Looking at Chloe's Barbie-like face, he was happy to listen to whatever she said.

The tension before the big match against Barcelona was greatly relieved by this chat.

After the two went into a long-distance relationship,

It seems the relationship is about to break down.

But video calls gradually became their daily routine.

Lu Xiao is already looking forward to winning tomorrow's game.

I immediately video-called Chloe to share my joy.

"Am I in a relationship now? Is this what love is all about?"

Lu Xiao, who had no practical experience, didn't know what this was.

The only certainty is that

In the video, Rick Roy's lips, which were red and luscious, were talking animatedly.

Lu Xiao couldn't wait to kiss him right now.

Just as I was about to go inside after returning to the door, my phone rang again.

Chloe: [Wishing you the best of luck in tomorrow's match! Goodnight, Your Majesty]

Lu: [Wait for my good news. Goodnight, my princess.]
