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

"Welcome to Migu Sports!! The Champions League final has begun!"

Let's take a look at the starting lineups for both sides!

While CCTV5's He Wei was excitedly providing commentary,

Migu Sports, an online platform, also broadcast this Champions League final that captivated the world.

According to incomplete statistics,

The number of people watching the Champions League final in Taiwan tonight will likely surpass that of the 2014 World Cup final!

The sheer number of people flocking to the streets and the intense focus on the final match are beyond words!

Zhan Jun was also very excited.

Unlike He Wei, he couldn't accompany CCTV to Kyiv and provide on-site commentary.

At least Zhan Jun can sit in the studio and participate in the game with Coach Zhang.

"First, let's look at Real Madrid! They are the reigning Champions League champions and the team that lifted the trophy last season."

The starting lineup remains unchanged!

"Goalkeeper, number 1, Navas;"

"Defenders: Carvajal (No. 2), Ramos (No. 4, captain), Varane (No. 5), Marcelo (No. 12)..."

"Midfielders: Casemiro (No. 14), Toni Kroos (No. 8), Modric (No. 10)."

"Up front, we have Isco (No. 22), Benzema (No. 9), and Cristiano Ronaldo (No. 7)!"

"The bench also includes Bale, Theo, and Ashraf."

After Zhan Jun calmly introduced Real Madrid's starting lineup,

There was nothing aggressive happening on the field.

Real Madrid took possession first, and it was clear they wanted to play it safe, not committing any players to attack at the outset.

Therefore, the opening was somewhat uneventful, which fits the impression that "the final has no famous games".

"For Arsenal, they have reached the Champions League final again after 12 years."

All 11 players from the previous starting lineup have left the team.

"This Arsenal team, after years without a trophy, has already won three titles this season and is unstoppable!"

"Goalkeeper, number 33, Cech;"

"Defenders: Bellerin (No. 24), Koscielny (No. 6), Mustafi (No. 20), Kolasinac (No. 31)."

"Midfielders: Xhaka (No. 29), Ramsey (No. 8), Lu Xiao (No. 10)!"

"The forward line includes Mkhitaryan (No. 77), Giroud (No. 9), Sanchez (No. 7)..."

According to the original timeline, Mkhitaryan was originally part of the Sanchez deal.

After Sanchez left the team, Mkhitaryan wore the number 7 jersey.

Since Sanchez was registered as number 7 in the Europa League, Mkhitaryan briefly wore the number 77 jersey, which aligns with his preference for the number 7.

Sanchez has not left the team, and Mkhitaryan also likes the number 7 jersey.

He simply put on the number 77 jersey, becoming the player with the highest number on the court.

Numbers may not mean anything.

But certain specific numbers are certainly not simple.

The broadcast director was very astute, immediately focusing the close-up shots on the number 10 players from both sides.

Modric, Lu Xiao!

"These two are currently the top midfield maestros in football."

"The absolute core players of both Real Madrid and Arsenal!"

Upon seeing this scene, He Wei's eyes reddened and tears welled up.

There was a time when Chinese players could only be relegated to the sidelines of the team.

When overseas players were the mainstays of the top five European leagues, it was still Sun Jihai of Manchester City.

That happened so many years ago!

There has never been a Chinese national team player in the Champions League final.

Lu Xiao, who plays for the Belgian Football Association but is a Chinese citizen with Chinese heritage,

Not only can he be compared to Modric, but he can even surpass Modric in terms of status in the football world.

He Wei felt like it was all a dream!

"Watch this ball first!! Real Madrid probes, then launches an attack!!"

As expected, Real Madrid couldn't hold their nerve.

As the reigning Champions League champions, they are the only team with the chance to break the curse and defend their title.

Real Madrid displayed the confidence befitting Champions League champions.

He delivered a long pass just 3 minutes into the game.

Cristiano Ronaldo receives the ball on the left wing, chests it down, and then accelerates to dribble it!

Right-back Bellerin underestimated Ronaldo's physical attributes and level of excitement.

He tried to squeeze into position, but failed to disrupt Ronaldo's balance; instead, he almost stumbled himself.

With a slight loss of footing, Ronaldo instantly pulled two body lengths ahead!

Arsenal's right flank defense was wide open!

"Cristiano Ronaldo!!! Extremely dangerous!! He's dribbling towards the penalty area!"

He Wei's voice rose eight octaves, and his fists clenched tightly.

Fortunately, Koscielny reacted quickly in the penalty area, seeing Ronaldo's dribbling falter, and rushed forward to block him.

Cristiano Ronaldo was overconfident and took a slightly too long touch, which was thwarted by Koscielny.

"That was close! Koscielny saved the day..."

Before He Wei could finish speaking, his clearance attempt was intercepted by Casemiro just outside the penalty area!

Real Madrid players have pushed forward into the halfway line, forming a high-pressing formation.

Everyone at Arsenal is keeping a close eye on Modric, Kroos, Ronaldo, Isco, and others.

Casemiro is completely out of the game!

"Oops!"

Lu Xiao immediately sensed something was wrong and rushed over.

He knew all too well how terrifying "Gian" was.

The brilliance of players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Modric, Kroos, and Bale seems to have overshadowed the hardworking Casemiro.

Casemiro, one of the "three midfielders of the ceremony," also seems to be ranked last.

But only future Manchester United fans will know just how amazing Casemiro is.

boom--

With no one around, Casemiro unleashed a powerful shot that sent a scare through the crowd!

"Long-range shot!!"

He Wei watched in horror as the ball became an immense threat.

Fortunately, Lu Xiao covered in time, stretching out his leg to slightly block the force of the ball.

The football bounced off Lu Xiao's foot, forming a slightly soft arc.

Cech made a diving save to tip the ball out of bounds!

Crisis resolved!

"A very high-quality shot attempt, Real Madrid's first shot on goal, Casemiro's long-range effort was saved by Cech."

"Lu Xiao's blocking was also crucial."

Real Madrid are awarded their first corner kick of the match.

Arsenal players wiped away a cold sweat.

Cech's heart was also racing.

Wearing a tank helmet, he quickly directed his teammates to position themselves for corner kicks.

"Over here!! Hey, keep an eye on him!"

"Over there, keep an eye on Ramos!!"

"Hey!! Zaka!! Mark him, mark him!"

Ramos, Varane, Ronaldo, Benzema...

Numerous header experts crowded the penalty area.

Arsenal is still in considerable danger.

Lu Xiao looked around, watching Real Madrid's aggressive opening attack gradually unfold.

He himself is also trying to find a way to break the deadlock.

"This is the decision for you! Legendary Maldini!"

In order to prepare for this Champions League final,

Lu Xiao specially brought two templates.

Lu Xiao has basically enhanced and integrated the muscle memory into the templates of other characters that can be fused.

Only the templates 【Gouenji Shuya-S】 and 【Paolo Maldini-A】 were equipped in the card slots.

Previously, Lu Xiao had intended to fuse the [Paolo Maldini-A] template together.

However, other guard templates were successfully integrated at that time.

The template enhancement for the legendary Maldini failed.

Fortunately, the character cards were not destroyed and are still kept in their character library.

In this Champions League final, Lu Xiao considered the attacking prowess of Real Madrid's players.

Considering Arsenal's overall defensive strength, after much deliberation, I decided to bring Maldini.

really!

Real Madrid took a corner kick, and chaos ensued in the penalty area.

Ramos suddenly took a step back, bypassing Mustafi to prepare for a header!

Cech was too slow to react and could no longer run to the other side of the goal.

Sergio Ramos, the attacking defender, is already envisioning himself lifting the trophy!

With such a wide-open goal, this ball is almost guaranteed to go in!

Real Madrid fans immediately stood up and cheered.

Arsenal fans covered their heads in disbelief.

Just at the critical moment,

A black-haired, black-eyed boy leaped high into the air.

He appeared like a ghost on the goal line and cleared the ball!

"Lu Xiao!!! A crucial goal-line save!!"

He Wei let out an excited roar.

It felt like I had been resurrected from the dead, my heart was pounding wildly!

Cech was also terrified and rushed over to catch the ball.

Arsenal's defensive crisis has been averted!

"A very experienced anticipation move! Lu Xiao anticipated the far post's position before Rams headed the ball and ran there in advance!"

"As expected of Lu Xiao! His awareness is top-notch on both offense and defense."

Watching the replay of Lu Xiaomen's clearance, Zhan Jun and Coach Zhang praised him repeatedly.

Arsenal gained possession and it looked like a counter-attack opportunity was on the horizon.

Before Real Madrid's defenders arrive, launch a quick counter-attack.

Cech is already preparing to throw the ball.

Benzema was lying in ambush nearby, ready to rush over at any moment.

Lu Xiao originally turned and rushed towards the midfield, intending to receive a pass from his teammate and launch a counterattack.

The moment I suddenly turned around and saw Benzema,

A chill ran from Lu Xiao's feet straight up to his head!

"Maru-la!!"

Benzema, a Real Madrid legend who gets better with age.

His most magical aspect wasn't the back-to-back hat tricks he later performed.

Benzema's most outrageous point,

It's an "intelligence-lowering aura" for the opposing goalkeeper!

It seems that every goalkeeper facing Benzema makes some basic mistakes that get caught out.

Karius is not alone!!

It looks like Cech is in trouble because he didn't notice Benzema's position when he threw the ball!

really,

It's time to come.

As Cech was about to throw the ball to Xhaka...

Benzema suddenly accelerated forward and stretched out his leg to block...

Shocked the world!
