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

"Hurry! Hurry!"

"Vamos! Vamos!!"

"Wait a minute, Iniesta, Rakitic, Sergio, Messi, you guys come here for a moment."

La Masia training base.

Head coach Enrique quickly called over Barcelona's midfield trio, as well as the team's soul, Messi.

"The pass was a bit slow just now, making it difficult to break through Atletico Madrid's defense."

"Coach...Atletico Madrid is missing Godin, shouldn't they be less cautious?"

Rakitic couldn't help but ask.

"Aren't you feeling smug?"

Enrique glanced at Rakitic.

It was this guy's tackle that crippled Atletico Madrid's key defender, Godin.

Rakitic is usually a very down-to-earth and unassuming young man with an introverted personality.

Why are you so smug after shoving someone?

How can someone with this kind of mentality become a midfield maestro?

He was originally chosen to replace Harvey, but it seems that Harvey's successor is still nowhere to be found for the time being.

If Xavi were there, Barcelona would definitely beat Atletico Madrid 100% of the time, even if Lu Xiao had a breakout performance.

Unfortunately, Xavi has been plagued by injuries and has barely played a few games this season.

I'm afraid he'll have to retire in less than two years.

Rakitic is a good defender, but he can't make up for Xavi's role on the offensive end.

Others are even less suitable.

If Neymar leaves again, Messi will be the only player the team can count on.

Enrique increasingly felt that submitting his resignation was a wise choice.

Regardless of whether they win the championship this season

Enrique has no intention of staying at Barcelona any longer.

Like a dynasty on the verge of collapse, it cannot be saved no matter how hard you try.

The only option is to demolish and rebuild.

Enrique could even assert that,

It will be difficult for Barcelona to win the Champions League title for at least the next 10 years.

"At least, let's get a King's Cup before we leave, okay?"

They just missed out on the league title the day before yesterday, and were also eliminated from the Champions League by Atletico Madrid.

If we don't even get the King's Cup...

Enrique felt like he could take Red Nose and go to Gotham City to fight Batman.

Several players were still staring at him.

Enrique quickly composed himself.

To be honest, after being pushed to the brink by Lu Xiao, Enrique has recently come up with many ways to deal with Atletico Madrid.

"Keep implementing what I told you last time. Move around more, and be even more decisive with your high-pressing!"

Your running was too sloppy today.

Enrique simply called the whole team to the sidelines, had the assistant coach pull out a tactics whiteboard, and explained the tactics to the players in detail on the spot.

With less than a week to go before the Copa del Rey final, last-minute cramming may not be very effective.

However, this tactic is inherited from Barcelona's system, a routine the players have been playing for many years.

Adapting to new tactics won't be too difficult.

"Suarez, your role is crucial. Keep dropping back, make runs like this, and then like this..."

Suarez's original position was to be positioned in front of the goal, assisting Messi by setting up passes or making runs into the box.

As a result, the new tactics forced Suarez to constantly step out of position, creating a false 9 role.

This creates more opportunities for Messi and Neymar to make runs into the flanks.

Suarez's dropping back can also create a numerical advantage in the attacking third, putting more threatening high pressure on Atletico Madrid.

With Godin absent, Atletico Madrid, having lost their key player, are even more afraid of this kind of physical challenge.

Barcelona were able to pin Atletico Madrid firmly in their own half.

Suarez, who is usually responsible for scoring goals, may rarely get scoring opportunities, but Messi and Neymar's shooting is not bad either!

Messi received a through pass from Suarez; his left-footed shot might be more threatening!

Practice while speaking

Barcelona is constantly familiarizing themselves with new tactics and trying them out.

They really put up a beautiful attack.

When Messi curled a left-footed shot into the net, Enrique nodded and smiled with satisfaction, giving a thumbs-up to the players on the field.

"Yes, that's it!"

Barcelona players truly deserve to be called the strongest group in the world.

Enrique's vision has now been initially realized.

Suarez, Messi, Neymar – none of them are the core of the attacking line, but they could all be the core!

Messi can also play a supporting role, creating opportunities for his teammates.

This kind of flexible movement and high pressing in the attacking third is best suited to dealing with counter-attacking teams like Atletico Madrid.

"Lu, if that's the case, can you still crack it?"

Enrique couldn't help but think of Atlético Madrid's Asian youth.

An 18-year-old football monster.

What will his expression be when facing Barcelona's new tactics?

……

"Take a 5-minute break!"

Madrid.

At Atlético Madrid's training ground, the players are also actively preparing for the match.

Compared to the bitter and resentful expressions on the faces of the Barcelona players,

Atletico Madrid were clearly still basking in the joy of winning the La Liga title; everyone was all smiles, and the atmosphere was quite relaxed.

Their opponent is Barcelona, ​​who have won four consecutive matches this season. They will face them for the fifth time next season.

Atletico Madrid has no psychological burden.

People have even started discussing the Champions League final, completely disregarding the Copa del Rey.

"Let's focus on the Copa del Rey."

"Relax, Luis. It's just a small Barcelona team; their mentality has already collapsed."

Saul didn't care.

Even his teammates like Griezmann and Torres weren't too worried, making Lu Xiao seem a bit mature for his age.

Lu Xiao could only look at Simone.

Inside the training ground, only Simeone and the coaching staff didn't seem to have much joy on their faces.

It seems the coach still values ​​Barcelona, ​​but the teammates underestimated them.

This is not a good sign.

After a day of training, the teammates were all quite tired and went home.

Lu Xiao wants to practice free kicks more on the training field.

While they mastered David Beckham's muscle memory, it wasn't a fusion of an S-level template, so the muscle memory couldn't perfectly replicate Beckham's abilities.

Lu Xiao needs to continuously improve his abilities through countless practices.

Only in this way can we truly integrate and apply our knowledge, allowing the real "crescent moon blade" to appear on the field.

"Lu, he's still doing extra training."

Simone was already used to Lu Xiao's extra training sessions.

"Yes... Coach, is this kind of mentality really a good thing for everyone?"

Lu Xiao couldn't help but voice the hidden concerns in his heart.

But he wasn't the captain; he was just a key player in the attacking play.

If someone were to stand up and criticize this kind of thinking based on their seniority...

On the surface, the Atletico Madrid players would agree with Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao wasn't quite sure what he thought in private.

We are all living, breathing human beings, not NPC characters in a story. Everyone has emotions and desires, and feelings of jealousy and resentment.

This is unavoidable.

Lu Xiao led everyone to victory, and everyone was in good spirits.

Whenever they lose a game or the team performs poorly...

Then let's wait and see.

Atletico Madrid may also experience some cracks.

Lu Xiao isn't stupid; of course he wouldn't be the one to spoil the fun or become the first to stick his neck out.

The head coach should definitely take the blame for this!

The head coach is someone who specializes in this.

"Lu, actually, although everyone is afraid of me, very few people actually listen to me."

105 La Liga title win

Some people at Atlético Madrid have become incredibly arrogant.

With the world's media praising it, even the head coach's intervention was of no use at this point.

Simeone can only strengthen team discipline, keep everyone's training attitude, and prepare tactics as well as possible.

But the specific mindset on the field

Only each player can make adjustments themselves.

"What if it's the Copa del Rey final..."

Lu Xiao didn't continue.

Both of them are intelligent people; they understand what they're talking about.

Some of his teammates don't care about the Copa del Rey. If they lose the final, can Simeone just sit idly by and watch that happen?

I thought Simone would find it hard to stand by and do something about it, and would call a meeting to say a few words.

I never expected Simone to be such a ruthless person.

"All I can say is that if someone doesn't want to win, then they don't deserve to win."

Losing this championship is fine; perhaps it will teach everyone a lesson.

Lu Xiao was taken aback.

No, bro?

He's a champion, after all! I want a triple crown!

Others may not want to win, but I do!

Simone could also see Lu Xiao's desire for victory, and simply grinned:

"So, you'll need to shoulder more responsibility in the finals. Like that line from Spider-Man, with great power comes great responsibility..."

After saying half a sentence, Simone smiled faintly, turned and left.

Lu Xiao was left standing on the training field, stomping on the ball in a disheveled state.

"Damn it, that old fox."

This is just like an unscrupulous boss in the workplace who takes advantage of anyone he can use.

You want to win the championship, right?

Then it's up to you!

The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.

Simeone's only goal is the Champions League title, and he would accept sacrificing the Copa del Rey to win the Champions League.

Lu Xiao couldn't stand it.

This is the closest I've ever come to winning the treble!

Missing out on the treble last season remains a regret in my heart!

Admittedly,

If he continues playing football,

Next year, the year after, and every season thereafter, I have a chance to win the treble.

If they can't get into La Liga, they'll go to the Premier League.

With the world's highest market value, he enjoys the kind of treatment that all the elite families would fight tooth and nail to get.

Lu Xiao isn't worried about not being able to assemble a super team.

The triple crown is definitely within our grasp.

But why not this year?

"The Copa del Rey, right? You haven't won it yet. Shouldn't you try before leaving La Liga?"

boom--

A high-quality, curved kick, imbued with Lu Xiao's obsession with winning the championship.

It swooped into the net!
