Before the game, Lu Xiao and Hazard leaned against the wall of the player tunnel at Stanford Bridge.

They chatted casually.

The two did not discuss today's match.

Everyone tacitly avoided this area.

They talked more about their feelings about playing against Manchester City.

De Bruyne and Kompany are both Belgian teammates.

And their League Cup final opponent is Manchester City.

They naturally started chatting.

"They are indeed difficult to deal with. Even if I can break through Kompany, the others will quickly get on my heels."

The pattern splitting is done very well.

And their ball is really hard to get.

"Yes, that's Guardiola's team."

"Kevin has found his rhythm lately; he seems to have gotten a lot stronger than before."

Hazard was deeply moved.

He originally thought he was the number one player in Belgium.

After Lu Xiao arrived,

Hazard considers himself the second oldest in Belgium.

De Bruyne is still a bit worse than himself.

Following Orange's thoughts,

After being coached by Guardiola, De Bruyne has been performing better and better, consistently delivering high-quality matches.

If this continues, Kevin De Bruyne will be well on his way to becoming one of the world's top players!

Hazard believes that, apart from dribbling and shooting, he is inferior to De Bruyne in every other aspect.

In this way, I'll be relegated to the third-ranked Belgian...

This is quite a blow to Hazard.

After listening to his complaints for a long time, Lu Xiao just smiled and remained silent.

Finally, I couldn't help but remind him:

"If you continue to train lazily, you might not even be as good as Lukaku."

"impossible!"

Hazard was unconvinced, but his shifty eyes betrayed him.

"At least today, I can still eliminate you all."

Arsenal's defense was loose and disorganized; Hazard almost breached it last time.

I'm very confident I can take them down this time.

"Okay, then give it a try."

Lu Xiao's smile before leaving sent a chill down Hazard's spine.

"Does Arsenal have some secret weapon? No, probably not."

……

"Why is it you?"

Hazard was stunned!

Less than five minutes into the game, Chelsea launched an attack in the attacking third, and the ball was passed to Hazard.

He habitually attempts to break through by cutting inside.

Against Xhaka, Hazard only needs to change his rhythm continuously to easily shake off the Swiss giant.

Just as Hazard was about to accelerate and dribble along the flank,

A figure stood in front of him!

Lu Xiao!!

Lu Xiao, who is clearly a striker, is actually playing in the defensive midfield position!

Hazard tried to change direction to the left or right but to no avail. Before he could hesitate, Lu Xiao had already broken his leg with a kick!

The Premier League's "dribbling king" has gone silent!

"Beautiful!! Lu Xiao's interception!! He followed up with a long pass!! Finding Sanchez directly!!!"

"Sanchez cut inside and shot!! Courtois!!! A world-class save!!"

"Arsenal have a corner kick opportunity."

Lineker was thrilled.

The do-or-die match between Chelsea and Arsenal was intense from the start.

Lu Xiao's performance was incredibly decisive; his interception and counter-attack were swift and efficient.

This caught Chelsea's defense completely off guard.

Just look at Chelsea manager Conte's expression; he's sweating bullets.

"Today, Lu was surprisingly positioned as a defensive midfielder, even though he often played in midfield to help the team defend."

But clearly, Wenger has fixed him in the defensive midfield position today... to be precise, Lu can play anywhere!

He has the ability to dominate the entire central axis!

The concept originally developed during the later stages of Harry Kane's career

Lu Xiao revealed it ahead of time!

"Swinging waist"!

In this match, Wenger completely proved this tactical approach!

Make full use of Lu Xiao's understanding of the playing space and his ability to read the game.

Hopefully, Lu Xiao will play a role on both offense and defense.

Especially Hazard, Chelsea's sharpest weapon, was firmly locked down by Lu Xiao at the start of the game!

"Damn it!!"

Hazard was not convinced.

He abandoned his usual laid-back attitude and resolutely raised his hand to ask for the ball.

Chelsea attacked, and seeing Hazard constantly shouting, his teammates had no choice but to pass the ball to him.

"Here, here!!"

Hazard's voice was hoarse from shouting, but he finally received a direct pass from David Luiz.

Just as I was about to turn around,

Suddenly, I felt a familiar pressure coming from behind me!

"This is bad!!"

Hazard instinctively lowered his shoulder to the right, making a move to turn and break through to the right.

In reality, he used his right heel to subtly flick the ball to the left!

"How was that move?"

Hazard flashed forward and quickly tried to break through from the left!

however……

and many more!

Where's the ball?

Looking down, I realized there was nothing beneath my feet!

Turning his head again,

Lu Xiao has already launched an attack with the ball!

Another successful steal!

"Shit!!"

Is Lu Xiao's defense really that strong?

For the first time, Hazard felt powerless.

"Beautiful!! Lue's accurate anticipation!! Successfully intercepted Hazard!!"

"He dribbles forward, Arsenal's counter-attack is very fast!!!"

"Özil moves up on the right, Lu, Özil, Lu!!!"

"A fluid one-two pass! Lu, accelerate and squeeze into the penalty area!!!"

Although Gary Cahill is a top-class center-back, physically strong and experienced,

But he couldn't push Lu Xiao aside!

The Chinese are still holding them back!

"How is that possible?"

It's said that Lu's weakness is physical confrontation.

But he's incredibly strong in his own right!

Lu Xiao was almost grinning from ear to ear.

With this level of intensity, does Gary Cahill really think he's a skinny bamboo pole?

These years of consistent exercise, coupled with a scientifically balanced diet, have been key to my success.

Lu Xiao doesn't look fat.

He has actually trained to become a "muscle monster"!

Take off his shirt, and Lu Xiao's muscle definition is no less than Cristiano Ronaldo's, and he's just as good as those dark-skinned, muscular men!

"Stop him!!"

Captain Azpilicueta screamed in terror and rushed over from the other side.

Young center-back Christensen was stunned, blocking Lu Xiao's path to intercept.

But Lu Xiao easily bypassed it, making him look like a wooden stake.

Azpilicueta could only make a desperate tackle to try and intercept Lu Xiao's shot.

How could Lu Xiao possibly get his wish?

Create some angle, then unleash a powerful shot with the instep into the top corner!

[Powerful Shot]!

boom--

The impact, like a white rainbow piercing the sun, left Courtois with no time to react!

"Gooooooooal!!!"

"Lu!! What a powerful shot!! Dribbling, awareness, skill, power—this Chinese player is simply too well-rounded!"

Arsenal are leading 1-0 away from home, making the aggregate score 4-3!

"Look at this play. From the moment of the interception, Lue's positioning and ball handling were top-notch!"

Even from God's perspective, it's impossible to achieve such perfection.

Lu was surprisingly on the field during the intense competition.

In a rapidly changing situation, they found the only opportunity!

How did he do that?

Conte's three-center-back system might be very effective against other teams.

But when faced with Lu Xiao, they crumbled!

While Lineker was still praising Lu Xiao, the BBC director suddenly switched to the live broadcast!

It's Lu Xiao dribbling the ball and attacking again.

Less than a minute after scoring, Arsenal have already intercepted the ball again?

But then Lu Xiao deliberately pulled off a "rainbow dribble" in front of Kanté, taking advantage of Kanté's short stature.

Kante, a top-class defensive midfielder, anticipated Lu Xiao's run and attempted to block him.

To everyone's surprise, Lu Xiao's lobbed shot wasn't far at all; the ball was a fraction of a second too slow and landed behind Lu Xiao.

Just as Kant was wondering how to handle Lu Xiao,

Everyone was stunned!

Lu Xiao actually used his heel, with his back to the ball, to complete a lob pass with no visibility!

The ball flew over Kanté's head for the second time and fell into the penalty area!

Giroud held off Christensen and slotted the ball into the net with his left foot!

"OHHHHHH—Lu's brilliant assist!! It's simply a masterpiece of God!"

"2-0!! Arsenal score two goals in one minute away from home!!"

"The final score is 5-3!"

"Chelsea are completely stunned!"

Just look at the expressions on the Chelsea players' faces.

Their last shred of confidence was shattered by Lu Xiao.

Arsenal are heading towards the final!

"Since the last time we were tied by Chelsea..."

An enraged Arsenal exacted their revenge at Stamford Bridge!
