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

"Time is running out for Bayer Leverkusen!"

He Wei uttered the line that made domestic fans suffer from PTSD.

Bayer Leverkusen's midfield and defense were in relatively poor form against Manchester United today.

Perhaps affected by the tight schedule of two matches a week, or perhaps due to a lack of Champions League experience,

I always felt that these players' performance in the Champions League was not as consistent as their performance in the league.

Only 16-year-old Lu Xiao and Son Heung-min on the left, two Asian stars, are still trying their best to perform.

The score of 2-1 had been dragged out to the 85th minute by Manchester United.

The chances for Leverkusen to equalize or even take the lead are rapidly slipping away!

Lu Xiao knew that everyone wasn't actually under much pressure.

The management had low expectations for this year's Champions League and therefore did not issue any specific battle plans.

As long as they can advance from the group stage, both the club and the fans will be satisfied.

Losing to Manchester United is no big deal; we can just settle for second place in the group...

But Lu Xiao didn't think so!

There's still time, why not strive for victory?

Isn't it good to finish first in the group?

Even though his physical strength was gradually being exhausted, Lu Xiao still stood on the field, running and pressing frantically, trying to create an opportunity.

Lu Xiao's performance made head coach Sasha reluctant to substitute him.

Despite the low morale, Lu Xiao might still have a chance!

With this in mind, Sasha made a substitution.

He had already used two of his roster spots to replace players in the midfield and defense who were struggling with fatigue.

Then, they brought on the tall, strong, and effective pivot player, Derdiyok, to replace Kiessling.

Finally, Sasha decided to make a final push, replacing the underperforming right winger Robbie Kruze with Julian Brandt.

Like a golden retriever, he rushed onto the field and found Lu Xiao immediately.

"Lu, the coach said to conserve your energy and stop playing defense. Leave the defense to us."

"And what about me?"

"You're in charge of finishing; we'll all set up the ball for you!"

Julian Brandt is on the left, Son Heung-min on the right, and Derdiyok is supporting from the pivot.

The three forwards all had only one tactical objective.

Create an opportunity for Lu Xiao!

His teammates are all willing to pass the ball to him, the new Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao has proven himself worthy of trust in these few matches!

"Julian Brandt was very active after coming on, and tried to use his speed to break through on the left wing."

"Leverkusen have a hard time breaking through Manchester United's central defense, but they can create openings on the flanks."

With the time already reaching 87 minutes, He Wei couldn't help but feel anxious for Leverkusen.

Manchester United have started to play defensively, retreating to set up a tight defensive formation near the penalty area.

Many Bayer Leverkusen fans couldn't help but feel despair upon seeing this.

Lu Xiao, however, saw an opportunity in it!

The team finally had a chance to control the ball and launch an attack! As long as they have the ball, there is always a possibility!

Rage level: 100%

Having maintained his rage for some time, Lu Xiao didn't rush to unleash his full power.

He was waiting for the right moment to strike a fatal blow!

"Leverkusen midfielders gain possession; Rolfes, Lars Bender, and Lu Xiao proactively drop back!"

Given Fellaini's constant close marking, Lu Xiao decided to take him down!

His teammate had the ball in the center circle, and he quickly went to meet him.

Fellaini instinctively stuck close to Lu Xiao, and just as the kid was about to receive the ball, Fellaini tried to use the same trick again, pulling on his jersey to stop him.

But this time, Fellaini underestimated Lu Xiao!

"Beautiful!! That was such an imaginative shot!"

The moment Lu Xiao received the ball with his back to goal, he feigned stopping it with his right foot, then suddenly stepped forward! He then delivered a diagonal pass to the left with his left foot using a fancy footwork move!

Without turning around to observe, the transmission is purely based on intuition!

This ball completely caught Fellaini off guard; he didn't manage to interfere at first, and Lu Xiao had already passed it away!

On the left, Julian Brandt displayed excellent teamwork, rushing forward to receive the ball and sweeping it across with his left foot before Rafael could intercept!

Lu Xiao has turned and made a run! He successfully received the ball!

This is the result of the two of them often staying behind for extra practice!

Countless times they sweated profusely on the training field.

Julian Brandt could tell Lu Xiao's passing and positioning habits even with his eyes closed!

Leverkusen's attack continues!

Lu Xiao received the ball and immediately passed it to Son Heung-min on the right!

Mirror learning has cooled down!

Lu Xiao's pass mimicked Rooney's, delivering a brilliant through ball using his passing technique!

It immediately penetrated both Carrick and Evans' defensive lines.

Son Heung-min overtook Evra on the right and plunged straight into the heart of Manchester United's half!

"Wow!!! Beautiful! Beautiful!"

Coach Zhang Lu almost fainted from excitement.

Lu Xiao's ball handling in these few instances was comparable to that of a midfield maestro!

Technique, speed, awareness, and passing skills are all top-notch!

Manchester United's defense was in immediate danger!

Lu Xiao's pass was too perfect; Son Heung-min had already dribbled diagonally into the penalty area!

Fellaini knew he had made another mistake, failing to contain the kid immediately.

Just as I was about to rush forward and grab his jersey to slow him down,

Unexpectedly, Lu Xiao suddenly activated his nitro boost, creating a two-body-length gap between himself and Lu Xiao!

"WTF?"

Fellaini was completely stunned.

Rage level: 100%

S-level templates are now fully available!

Speed, physical fitness, and technique all improved!

Lu Xiao transformed into a white lightning bolt and charged towards the restricted area!

At this moment, Son Heung-min had already reached the byline. Despite Evans' defense, he delivered a lob pass with his right foot, finding Derdiyok's head!

However, Derdiyok was in a difficult position to head the ball with his back to goal in order to block Phil Jones.

Seeing Lu Xiao rush in,

Derdiyok didn't care about anything else and immediately headed the ball to Lu Xiao!

"Kid, please!"

"This is bad!"

Manchester United midfielder Carrick felt a chill and immediately changed direction to charge straight at Lu Xiao!

If I lunge forward in a stance reminiscent of Iron Mountain Leaning, I'll definitely be able to stop this kid from catching the ball.

Regardless of whether it's a foul or not, at least it can disrupt his shot!

"Oh dear! Lu Xiao has gone upstairs!"

He Wei was a little nervous; this ball was difficult to handle!

The Leverkusen fans at the stadium were too scared to watch; Lu Xiao was likely to suffer a severe punishment.

David Moyes stared intently at the field, his fists clenched tightly.

"Hit him! Hit him!!"

Lu Xiao faced a header pass back and intended to volley the ball directly with his right foot.

Just moments before the two collided, he suddenly sensed the attack coming at him with a gust of wind.

With his right foot already raised to shoot, he pulled the ball back from an incredible distance!

Using your left foot as a pivot, turn around and avoid Carrick!

"What?"

"impossible!!!"

The surrounding Manchester United players' pupils dilated in shock!

Lu Xiao's rapid counterattack, calm handling, and exquisite footwork completely overturned their expectations!

What kind of monster is this 16-year-old?

They're already in the opponent's penalty area, and they're still showing off?!

"Should we turn around and open the door?"

The brilliant goalkeeper De Gea was ready to receive Lu Xiao's shot after he turned around.

He conceded a goal in the first half.

I absolutely cannot allow myself to concede the second goal!

But the next second, De Gea was dumbfounded!

Lu Xiao didn't even turn around completely before kicking the door.

Instead, just as he turned to avoid Carrick and turned his back to the goal,

The ankle holding the soccer ball gently lifted upwards.

Using a spinning back kick

A fatal kick with the heel!

boom--

De Gea didn't even have time to make a move; everything went blurry before his eyes!

The football grazed the post and flew into the goal!

"Jesus!! What the fuck?"

"Lu Xiao!! Wow!"

He Wei's eyes popped out of their sockets.

He had never seen anyone score such a magnificent and daring goal when the game was about to end and the team was behind!

Just when you think Lu Xiao is amazing enough, he still manages to surprise you!

"Goal!!"

"In the 88th minute, Lu Xiao helped Bayer Leverkusen secure a last-minute equalizer away from home!"

"2 to 2!!"

"Manchester United's fighting spirit is certainly tenacious, but Bayer Leverkusen, and Lu Xiao, are no less resilient in dire straits!"
