The first major exam.

May 14th, the final match of the 2015-2016 La Liga season.

Atletico Madrid's home stadium, Wanda Metropolitano Stadium.

Lu Xiao is a little nervous about defending his La Liga title.

"Lu, what are you so nervous about? You've already won the league championship."

"That's different. Bayern weren't a match back then. This time, Barcelona are quite strong."

"..."

Lu Xiao's casual remark left Griezmann feeling frustrated.

What does it mean that Bayern Munich is no match for them?

They don't take the Bundesliga's top team seriously?

Griezmann thought about it carefully and realized that it made sense.

During his time at Bayer Leverkusen, Lu Xiao was dubbed "Bayern's nemesis" by the German media.

Bayern Munich has only defeated Lu Xiao once, in a cup competition.

In every other match, Lu Xiao led his team to victory against Bayern Munich.

The nickname "Bayern's nemesis" was so well-known that even Spanish players recognized it, and the kid was famous throughout Europe back then.

If Barcelona hadn't been so exceptional this season, only losing 3 games, Atletico Madrid wouldn't have had such a difficult time.

The final match of the 38th round of the league will begin simultaneously for all teams, according to the official league schedule.

So before the match, Atletico Madrid players sat patiently in the locker room waiting for the game to start.

The TV in the locker room is playing a special program from the Moviestar+ pay channel.

Commentator José Ángel, along with La Liga legend Figo and Barcelona legend Deco, discussed the madness of this season.

Former Barcelona and Chelsea player, Portuguese international Deco couldn't help but sigh:

"In the past, Barcelona would have won the championship 100% even with 100 points, let alone 103, without any surprises."

But this monstrous Barcelona encountered an even more monstrous Atletico Madrid!

If Atletico Madrid wins this match, they will gain 105 points! That would be the highest points total in La Liga, securing their league title!

And Barcelona will set a record, becoming the second-highest-scoring team in La Liga history with 103 points! That's insane!

"Yes," Figo couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

"Look at Real Madrid. Just a few months ago, Real Madrid was competing for the title, just like Barcelona and Atletico Madrid."

As a result, they lost two important matches, one to Atletico Madrid and one to Barcelona, ​​and subsequently fell into a slump, dropping 10 points behind Barcelona.

The screen displayed the live La Liga standings, which were almost finalized.

The original "Three Giants of the Western Conference" have become a two-horse race for supremacy.

Both Barcelona and Atletico Madrid performed at a monster level, representing the ultimate T0 teams in this version.

Real Madrid is considered T0.5, but they missed a crucial opportunity and are now focusing all their efforts on staying in the Champions League.

The remaining strong teams, such as Athletic Bilbao, Villarreal, and Sevilla, have fallen behind by nearly 30 points!

In Figo's words:

"This is absolutely the craziest season I've ever seen, bar none."

"That's right, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona have a healthy rivalry, and both sides have brought out the full potential of each other."

Everything hinges on tonight's game!

Deco is already quite eager to see the finale of this La Liga season.

Did Barcelona come from behind to pull off an incredible comeback?

Will Atletico Madrid hold onto their victory and deny Barcelona any chance?

In the final round, Barcelona will face Granada.

Real Madrid vs Deportivo La Coruña;

Atletico Madrid vs Celta Vigo;

None of the three teams are particularly strong; it remains to be seen who will suffer an unexpected defeat.

If I had to say, Celta Vigo is slightly stronger.

Celta Vigo are currently 7th in the league, and if they beat Atletico Madrid, they will have a chance to qualify for the Europa League!

Granada has secured their place in the league and has nothing left to play for.

"In comparison, Barcelona's game is easier, while Atletico Madrid's game is still a bit suspenseful."

"Yes, especially since Atletico Madrid lost their most trusted defender, the news that Godin will be out for a month is very unfortunate."

Although he has a chance to play in the Copa America in June,

But he definitely won't make it to the club's last three crucial matches.

Stop talking, stop talking!

Atletico Madrid fans watching on TV were practically sweating with tension!

Why do people feel so uneasy even though they are not very strong opponents?

What if Celta Vigo pulls off an upset?

Wouldn't that mean falling before the dawn?

That would be so frustrating!

He Wei from CCTV5 was also very nervous. He couldn't put on his in-ear monitor several times in the studio and had to ask Xu Yang for help.

"No, you're nervous?"

"There's no other way, today's match is very important. It's about the championship."

"Trust Lu Xiao."

Compared to He Wei, Coach Xu Yang was much calmer.

In the past, Xu Yang might have been a little worried, but ever since Lu Xiao awakened his off-the-ball movement, long passing, and free-kick abilities, and incidentally strengthened the team's tackling and physical play in the attacking third...

Lu Xiao doesn't seem to have any major weaknesses anymore.

He is fully capable of leading the team to victory under any circumstances!

No matter how many goals we're down in the backfield!

"They're here!"

I received a 30-second countdown to the live broadcast in my earpiece, and the camera could switch to the stadium at any time.

He Wei and Xu Yang adjusted their mindset and greeted Lu Xiao's first La Liga title battle with the utmost professionalism!

……

beep—

Game start!

At the same time, whistles blew simultaneously at stadiums across La Liga.

If the director could cut to different shots, you could see close-ups of Messi, Ronaldo, and Lu Xiao, and their eyes are almost identical!

It's an almost pure will to survive!

They have let go of everything and are ready to bring the league to a perfect close in top form!

As for CCTV

Of course, we'll be streaming Atletico Madrid vs. Celta Vigo live!

Who are Messi and Ronaldo? I don't know them!

Fans only watch Lu Xiao!

"Celta Vigo are playing quite aggressively in their pursuit of a Europa League spot, targeting the right flank with through balls!"

"The pass was a bit too long and was caught by goalkeeper Oblak."

"Celta Vigo on the counter-attack again! And they're attacking down this side!"

"Shot!!! Just wide!"

These two attacks made He Wei break out in a cold sweat.

Tens of millions of fans are also in high spirits.

The final match of the league was at a rather ominous 3 a.m., and many fans got up in the middle of the night to watch the game.

I was feeling a little sleepy, but now I'm instantly wide awake!

"Let's hope nothing goes wrong later."

"No matter how good Lu Shen is, the defense has to hold up."

"Without Godin, things are still unstable."

"What about the Champions League final?"

Celta Vigo are a formidable team, ranking 7th in La Liga, which shows they have a certain level of skill.

Atletico Madrid, lacking Godin, played a more cautious defense, focusing more on their own half.

The two sides remained deadlocked.

Meanwhile, Barcelona have already scored the first goal!

On the coaching bench, several assistant coaches were wearing headphones and listening to Barcelona's updates.

"Messi scores!! 1-0!"

"Wait, another one! Two goals in 3 minutes, 2-0 now!"

Barcelona lead Granada 2-0!

This team hasn't given up yet; they're still fighting for the La Liga title with a last-ditch effort!

Especially after hearing that Atletico Madrid hadn't scored yet and Celta Vigo was threatening Atletico's goal repeatedly, Barcelona became even more motivated.

The score remained 0-0 between Atletico Madrid and Celta Vigo until the final whistle in the first half.

Barcelona are already leading Granada 3-0, and the outcome of the match is no longer in doubt.

The only suspense now is the Atletico Madrid match!

Can they defeat Celta Vigo?

"Lu, is everything alright?"

Even Griezmann seemed a bit nervous.

Celta Vigo's defense is very aggressive, and the referees are relatively lenient.

Griezmann was tackled and knocked down by his opponents several times, but didn't receive a single yellow card.

Lu Xiao was also fouled multiple times. After only 45 minutes of playing, Lu Xiao's red and white striped shirt was covered with grass clippings and mud marks.

"It's okay, we'll put in more effort in the second half."

"I hope nothing unexpected happens."

"You little brat, so lacking in confidence? How are you going to lead the French team to victory in the future?"

"Honestly, did you really dream that I led the French team to win the World Cup?"

Griezmann still can't believe that Lu Xiao had such a beautiful dream.

"Yes, you are the midfield maestro of the French team."

Lu Xiao smiled.

Anyway, nobody believes in prophetic dreams if you tell them.

Any resemblance to actual persons or events is purely coincidental.

Therefore, Lu Xiao can joke around with Griezmann without hesitation.

To be fair, the 2018 French national team championship seemed to be largely due to Mbappe's brilliance, with Pogba being hailed as the midfield maestro.

Griezmann was actually the officially voted MVP.

His abilities are beyond doubt.

At this stage, however, Griezmann has not yet evolved to his full potential.

"It's up to you in the second half."

"Since you put it that way, then I'll help you!"

Griezmann patted Lu Xiao on the shoulder.

When Lu Xiao is frequently targeted by Celta Vigo, he definitely needs his teammates to be more active so that he can have more space to run off the ball.

Otherwise, if Atletico Madrid's attacking players don't run, even having the [Jie Shiyi] template won't help.
