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

So far, aside from the first big win, there's only the maxed-out ball control template for [Nagi Seishiro].

Lu Xiao currently uses [Feng Le Hui] the most.

He is very well-rounded in dribbling, ball control, and supporting play.

Combined with [Hyuga Kojiro]'s fierce tiger-style long-range shot,

Lu Xiao is one of the strongest attackers in football right now, capable of posing a threat on all three lines: left, center, and right.

It's modeled after Kaká and Cristiano Ronaldo, but with a weaker emphasis on off-the-ball movement and passing.

This has always been Lu Xiao's playing style.

But the recent Copa del Rey quarterfinals gave Lu Xiao a new perspective.

Number 9 and a half.

The ball is passed from the backfield to the first target man in front, who can then attack and create a goal inside the penalty area.

At the same time, they can also drop back to support and assist their teammates.

When Lu Xiao draws all the attention, he can create the perfect opportunity for his teammates.

Athletic Bilbao has already proven this.

Even with a reserve team, they managed a 3-0 away victory.

Not to mention leading the main force!

Griezmann, Torres, and Saul are all excellent attacking players for Atlético Madrid.

Previously, Lu Xiao's number 10 jersey was basically played as a traditional number 9, solely responsible for scoring goals.

Even if they drop back to the attacking midfield or central midfield position, they can participate in some attacking organization and coordination, or cooperate with each other.

But the football, after many twists and turns, eventually came to Lu Xiao's feet.

He has the "unlimited right to fire" granted by Simone.

If this continues, both Bayer Leverkusen and Atletico Madrid will gradually become reliant on Lu Xiao's scoring ability.

However, the teammates' own scoring ability will also be weakened accordingly.

This led to teammates instinctively passing the ball to Lu Xiao even when there were open opportunities.

No wonder the World Sports Daily subtly mocked Lu Xiao as a "team bully" some time ago.

"After joining Atletico Madrid for the world's highest transfer fee, Lu Xiao's role is equivalent to Cristiano Ronaldo for Real Madrid."

His possession of the ball is unquestionable, but Griezmann and Torres' tactical role is not as significant.

One is a key striker for the French national team, and the other is a former Atletico Madrid legend and a world-class striker.

Their individual shooting abilities are all world-class, so why would they give way to an 18-year-old Chinese player?

There may be Chinese capital involved behind this.

This led to Lu Xiao gradually becoming Atlético Madrid's "team bully".

Everyone says Cristiano Ronaldo is the team bully, but I believe Lu Xiao is the real hidden team bully…

Articles like these by Catalan media criticizing Lu Xiao,

Mundo Deportivo produces at least one or two articles every week.

Lu Xiao himself and the majority of fans have long been used to it, so they have never taken it seriously.

As long as the atmosphere within the Atlético Madrid team remains unaffected, that's fine.

Everyone should continue to pass on Lu Xiao's information.

What others say doesn't matter.

However, Lu Xiao's performance today has given Mundo Deportivo a boomerang-like response.

Marca was the first newspaper to launch an attack after the match.

Lu Xiao's hat-trick of assists leads Atletico Madrid to a three-man away victory, putting them one foot in the Copa del Rey semi-finals.

Subsequently, pro-Atletico Madrid media outlets followed suit and published similar reports.

"Team tyrant? Doesn't exist! A detailed analysis of Atletico Madrid's new tactics reveals that Lu Xiao's strongest form lies in fitting the number 10 position."

"Able to pass and shoot, the terrifying Lu Xiao is still evolving! 3 assists shone throughout the game."

"It turns out that Lu is not the dictator rumored! Griezmann reveals that the atmosphere within the Atlético Madrid team is good."

On Twitter, Lu Xiao once again topped the trending topics list.

#Lu Xiao assists hat trick

"I told you, Lu didn't not want to pass; it was just a tactical arrangement."

"Lu Xiao's passes are sometimes absolutely mind-blowing! Who could possibly predict his passing routes?"

"Either don't pass it on at all, or pass it on a fatal one!"

"I was completely stunned by the second goal!"

This match significantly changed the public's impression of Lu Xiao.

He previously broke scoring records in the league and the Champions League, dominating the top scorer list every year.

I thought Lu Xiao's peak had ended there.

And you're telling me he's also a passing maestro?

I don't know if Real Madrid and Barcelona have peed their pants yet, but Sevilla has definitely peed their pants first.

Three days later, before the start of the 21st round of La Liga matches,

Sevilla coach Unai Emery gave a wry smile at the press conference:

Good news, Lu Xiao is not in the starting lineup today.

The bad news is that he's on the roster and might play.

We had previously made some tactical deployments against Lu and were fully prepared.

However, judging from our performance in the Copa del Rey the past two days, perhaps our preparations were not thorough enough.

We can only hope the players perform at their best and try to secure a point away from home.

Unai Emery, who will later become Arsenal manager and is now leading Sevilla in their quest for a third consecutive Europa League title, deliberately showed weakness against Atletico Madrid.

Lu Xiao is like a nuclear weapon; he is a huge threat whether he appears on the scene or not.

But Simone was also showing weakness.

"After listening to the opposing coach's comments, I feel he went a bit too far. Atletico Madrid isn't as invincible as they make it out to be."

We are currently ranked 3rd in the league and need to catch up with Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​while also preventing ourselves from falling behind.

Every match was like walking a tightrope, with lava on both sides.

Moreover, playing two games a week is very stressful, and frequent midfield rotations put a lot of pressure on the team's teamwork.

Facing the challenge from Sevilla will be a tough battle; Sevilla is a very strong team.

After the press conference,

Emery and Simeone shook hands and interacted amicably in front of the media.

"You guys are very strong, we need to be more careful playing at home."

"No, no, you are the real strong team, we are the challengers."

Both sides seem to respect each other.

The reporters present knew that both coaches were cunning and manipulative, using this as a smokescreen to appear weak.

Simeone and Emery, each with their own ulterior motives, shook hands and left.

The two sides are about to engage in a life-or-death struggle.

Sevilla are currently ranked 5th in La Liga, having been defeated by Atletico Madrid once before.

With Athletic Bilbao ahead and Celta Vigo, Malaga, and Real Sociedad close behind, the points difference is very close.

If they lose, Sevilla will not only fail to qualify for the Champions League, but also risk falling into the Europa League zone.

Both sides have reasons why they cannot afford to lose!

……

"It shouldn't be a big problem, right?"

"Probably, let's see."

Sitting on the bench, Lu Xiao's young Uruguayan center-back, Jiménez, looked very nervous.

The two played the entire Copa del Rey match in the last game.

Today is a temporary day off.

Lu Xiao has secretly drunk some regular Red Bull, and his stamina is gradually recovering; he can go on the field at any time.

Jimenez will probably need some time to recover.

Godin is also temporarily sidelined due to a minor ankle injury.

The current central defensive pairing is a substitute rotation, and it's uncertain whether they can withstand Sevilla's attack.

"My God, that ball!"

At the start of the match, Sevilla bared their fangs and launched a surprise attack on Atletico Madrid.

Winning three consecutive Europa League titles is enough to prove that Sevilla has a certain level of skill.

Midfield maestro Banega and attacking spearhead Vitolo performed brilliantly, constantly posing threats to Atletico Madrid.

"Ouch!!"

"Nooooo——"

"Jesus!!!"

Jimenez's exaggerated reactions made Lu Xiao nervous.

"Dude, you're really into it."

"I was a little too personal about it," Jimenez said with an awkward laugh.

Lu Xiao still believes in his teammates.

With Griezmann and Torres ahead of them, if they can't even handle Sevilla, how can they be expected to deal with Real Madrid and Barcelona?

As expected, the two sides remained deadlocked for 40 minutes before Griezmann gradually displayed his peak form.

He was fearless in a 1v2 situation on the left flank, changing his rhythm to sway his opponents before suddenly cutting inside.

It instantly attracted three bidders, and the unexpected transmission tore open the cracks.

"Torres!!"

"Gooooooal!!!"

Former Golden Boy Torres, still got his touch!

Lu Xiao also jumped up and cheered along with the substitutes!

"pretty!!!"

"Fernando!!!"

Lu Xiao was really happy when his teammate scored and launched a beautiful attack.

If Griezmann and Torres can both perform at their peak.

This season I'm not fighting alone.

I have a strong, capable partner by my side!

The treble that Bayer Leverkusen missed out on might really be their chance this year!
