Football Should Be Played Like Me

Chapter 158: If anyone can save Italy, it's Lu!

"Oh! What happened?"

"It's the Italian bench! Drake and Vincent seem to be arguing about something!"

"We know that there have been rumors of discord before the Italian team. It is said that there were some verbal conflicts between the players in the team and the coaching staff. But..."

"But now it's in the game!"

"Drecchi, as one of the captains of the Italian team, is diligent and diligent. He is not a person who plays with privileges. Even if Vincent took him to other players, Drake has never complained."

"The sound was getting louder and players came over, but they didn't pull the two apart."

"Drecchi was saying something, and his words seemed to infect the Italian players. The coaching staff was stopped by the Italian players, and things didn't expand further, but the conversation between the two continued."

"Drake's voice is so loud, we can already hear what he's screaming!"

On the TV, Drake's angry voice came.

"I'm on the court? Why do I go up? Why do you want me to go up?"

"Do you think I can score for Italy? What the **** are you thinking?"

"Victory! We just want victory now, you know?"

"Italy needs to attack, not to defend!"

"It's him who should play!"

"The top scorer in Serie B! Sixty goals this season! The Coppa Italia and the European Youth Championship double golden boots!"

"He, Lu! Let Lu play! Let him play football!"

"If anyone can save Italy, I believe that person is Lu!"

Drake was hysterical, and the fourth referee was confused by this situation.

This... should we intervene?

This seems to be the family business of the Italian team?

And... there was no physical conflict.

To be fair, the referee shouldn't care.

But... this scene is a bit worrying.

Will Drake suddenly go wild, sanction Vincent and do what every Italian wants to do?

Vincent turned pale.

He had never experienced such a scene.

This is a battle of life and death in Italy. Under the watchful eyes of fans from all over Italy and even all of Europe, his replacement arrangement as a head coach was not only directly rejected by the person who was replaced, but he was even reprimanded and instructed by the other side.

Is he still the head coach of this team?

Do these players still want to play?

There is no doubt that any player who goes against the will of the head coach, in any case, the road ahead will only get narrower and narrower, with few exceptions.

This kind of violation does not mean fighting with the head coach, etc., but a direct and public rebuttal.

For example, when Sarri was coaching at Chelsea, Kepa refused to replace goalkeeper Kepa.

This thing can be said to be a lose-lose.

Sarri lost his reputation and prestige, and finally had to leave the game.

But in the same way, Kepa is also considered a thorny player within the industry, and his worth has plummeted in the transfer market, and no one cares.

And Drake is now similar to Kepa.

It's just that Kepa is unwilling to come off, which is somewhat understandable.

But Drake is reluctant to play, which is even rarer.

This incident is destined to affect Derekki, and even if he will never be called up by the national team again in the future, Derekki still made such a relatively extreme choice.

Because he knew that this might be the last hope.

And Vincent, after experiencing Drake's anger and rejection, his future coaching career is also difficult to improve, because he can no longer maintain the most basic authority as a head coach.

This is the player's problem, but also Vincent's own problem.

What's more, he has never won any excellent championship awards before, unlike the champion harvesters such as Mourinho and Guardiola, no matter how ruthless they are, they can change their bodies and start all over again.

In any case, substitutions must continue.

The referee will not give Italy too much time.

If Pellegrini is injured, he must come off the court. If your Italian team does not make a substitution, then you will be in the top ten and eleven. The Swedish team will not be too happy.

At a critical moment, Manello, who had been silent on the coach's bench, came over, let Drake let go, and said to the fourth referee in front of Drake and Vincent: "We're sure, use No. 22 player Lu Yang, replace No. 8 player Pellegrini!"

The fourth referee looked at Vincent and found that Vincent did not shake his head.

So, the substitutions began.

Before he warmed up, Lu Yang was ordered in danger and appeared on the court dramatically.

The Italian fans who broke out at the scene cheered wildly, and they shouted Lu Yang's name together, as if the game had been won.

This is the home stadium of Italy, and the Italian stadium has a large capacity, so the number of Italian fans here exceeds 50,000!

When 50,000 people chanted the same name in unison, the shock was unimaginable for those who did not go to the stadium to watch the game.

Lu Yang!

Lu Yang!

Lu Yang!

The fans of the Swedish team were completely bewildered by this posture.

What does it mean?

Is the Uranus Superstar coming?

Is there any big killer in Italy?

"It's that Lu! The player who just won the Puskas Award!" The Swedish fans who had done their homework began to explain the existence of this Lu.

In fact, around this time period in the last game, the Italian fans of the Expeditionary Army were also calling this name.

However, in the end, Vincent insisted on being deaf, playing with illness, and being physically and mentally strong, which is respectable.

"Is he strong?"

"He is currently the top scorer in Serie B, but he usually plays in midfield. Many people say that he is a bit like England's Gerondo, a player who won the golden boot in the midfield position."

"Hey! Serie B? Talk about wool! Serie A stars are rubbed on the ground by our Sweden, okay?"

"Yeah, so this group of Italians is confusing."

"And the funniest thing, do you know? This Lu is a Chinese!"

"What's so funny? There are already many foreign immigrants in developed countries in Europe."

"The funny thing is that after the European Youth Championship, Lu Xing's team won the championship, and the flag he waved was Italy on one side and China on the other."

"Watt? Did I hear it wrong? What did he mean? Wasn't he afraid of being abandoned by Italy?"

"This is what I have to say. He was criticized to a certain extent by public opinion at the time, and even some Chinese did not understand his approach. But... After the Italian European Cup play-off defeat this time, some Italian fans publicly stated that if Lu can play and score for Italy, then they will never again object to the colours of the flag that Lu Yang is waving."

"Hahaha! This group of Italians is really awesome, are they so dignified?"

Swedish fans mocked some of the remarks made by Italian fans before.

But an Italian fan next to him countered: "Really? If you can't enter the European Cup or the World Cup, and there is a player who can help you achieve your goals, he is also willing to fight for you, but he still loves his homeland at the same time. How will you choose?"

"Can you give up his support?"

"Besides, I don't think there is anything wrong with his behavior. Even if I go to a big city, I will not forget the small village that raised me. Besides, China is only stronger than Italy in all aspects."

The Swedish fans were completely incomprehensible and ridiculed: "So, do you think this Lu came from China to help the poor with football in Italy? Hahaha! This is the best joke I've heard this year!"

The Italian fan was not irritated, and he took off his Italian national team jersey to reveal the Sanremo shirt inside.

Obviously, this is a San Remo fan, so it makes sense for him to say anything, especially the kind of impossibility.

Because in the past two and a half years, everything that happened in Sanremo was impossible!

The fan said: "Okay, then I hope that after the Swedish team misses the European Cup, you don't envy Italy for having such a land!"

"Lu Yang, come on!"

"Lu Yang, rise up!"

"Lu Yang, you are awesome!"

The fan started shouting because Lu Yang, who was on the field, had already received the football.

boom!

After Lu Yang came on, he appeared in the left midfield, replacing Pellegrini.

Candreva, who is in the middle, has moved from the midfield position to the midfield position, so the performance is not so disastrous.

Lu Yang knew that his biggest task was to attack, so he didn't rush to change positions with Candreva, going to the middle and ready to become a midfielder at any time.

Candreva gives the ball to Lu Yang.

This is Lu Yang's first appearance for the Italian national team.

After catching the ball, he flicked the bull's tail beautifully, swayed past the defender in front of him, and then dribbled the ball forward.

This move is very beautiful, so that all Italian fans will shine.

This feeling is... long-lost in Italy... impact?

That's right!

impact!

In the past, Italy had wonderful defense, organization and goals.

But what they lack most is a player who can attack the opposing defense.

Such shocks may have a high probability of failure.

But at the same time, it is also a kind of consumption for the opposing defensive players.

No matter how many times he guards you, the next time, everyone will be open.

Probabilistically, neither his successful defense nor your failed breakthrough will affect the probability of your next breakthrough.

This kind of mental exhaustion is hard to see with the naked eye, but it is real on the field.

Once the opponent's mental state is not good, even if you pass the ball casually, it will tear the opponent's defense line and make the opponent's defense fall short.

But Italian football in the past, because it was too mature and complete, inhibited the birth of impact players.

The short-sightedness of the national team aggravated this situation.

So Lu Yang only touched the ball for the first time, and many Italian fans have already reached the peak of their emotions.

This ox's tail made them see the light!

After ten seconds.

"Alas!" The commentator sighed, "This is a wonderful breakthrough. Lu Yang's first touch of the ball showed great power. But he and Perotta still lacked a tacit understanding. The football was passed to Ancarelli."

"Ancarelli gave Perrotta the ball for the first time. Although there are rumors of disagreement between the two, they are both very professional. In official games, they will never do anything against Italy."

"Perrotta waited for a moment after holding the ball, and then sent the ball behind the Swedish defence with a through ball. It was a beautiful through ball!"

"Lu Yang started a long time ago. He appeared behind the Swedish central defender, and he rubbed a kick against the football. The football passed the Swedish goalkeeper's ten fingers!"

"The Swedish defenders were all focused on Ancarelli, they didn't expect a midfielder to stick firmly into their box!"

"But unfortunately, Perotta wasted some time by watching, which led to Lu Yang being offside when he played the ball. So the goal was invalid and was blown by the referee."

"Italian fans are so excited! Italian players are also complaining and they think it's a good goal."

"But by slowing down, we can see that Lu Yang was indeed offside. Although not many, it was an offside kick."

"It's a pity, but from this ball, we can also see the difference between Lu Yang and the traditional Italian midfielder. He is very aggressive, he is very bold, and he is the X factor of Italy!"

"Hopefully he can score goals for Italy next!"

Of course, there are bulls and there are bears.

Some commentators also said: "Lu Yang missed his best scoring opportunity of the game. He just came on the court and is not easy to be noticed, so he stole a chance."

"But then, the Swedish defenders won't give him that chance again!"

"The presence of Ancarelli and Perrotta took most of the attention of the Swedish defensive players, but after that, Lu Yang will also enter their defensive vision."

Both statements have certain truths, and they are purely the difference between the thinking modes of optimistic idealism and pessimistic realism.

For the next few minutes, Lu Yang continued to perform brilliantly.

He got the ball in midfield and faced pressing from two opposing players.

Normal people would send it back, and Lu Yang did exactly that.

Including Candreva are ready to catch the ball.

However, Lu Yang quickly adjusted the direction with a V-shaped pull of the ball, then took the fried **** and passed between the two defenders.

Drive forward with the ball in the middle!

Unfortunately, at the end of this attack, Perrotta was surrounded by the opponent and Ancarelli didn't get in in time, and finally lost his threat. Under Ancarelli's long-range shot, it became a goal kick. .

After this attack, Lu Yang found Perotta and exchanged a few words with him.

Lu Yang: "Perrota, you don't need to pay special attention to my movement. If you sometimes see an opportunity and hope that someone can hit the wall with you, I will cooperate with you."

"My insertion is very firm, and my physical strength is enough for me to run all over the court, so if you want to pass the ball to me, you can give a little more advance or throw the ball with one kick."

Lu Yang and Perrotta were talking about the last pass.

If Perotta didn't pass the ball to Lu Yang at the first time, Lu Yang would easily be offside.

The prudence of the pivot center is necessary, but he will know better how to deal with the football at his feet if he knows that there is someone who will always plug in when he drops back.

Perrotta nodded.

In any case, Lu Yang's words made him feel very comfortable.

Lu Yang didn't ask Perrotta to do anything, but tried to do it from Perrotta's point of view as much as possible.

It's a hundred times better than saying "you catch the ball and go straight, don't miss the opportunity".

Similarly, Lu Yang went to Ancarelli again.

Lu Yang: "Ancarelli, no matter whether there is a chance or not, in every attack, I will stick to the front and pull away at least one defender for you."

"I will also pay attention to your movement. As long as you have a chance, the football will definitely come to your feet!"

Look how nice it sounds.

Ancarelli nodded and smiled.

This is the little helper he needs most.

Impact is something, does Ancarelli have it?

have!

But not much!

Even if Ancarelli in his thirties can still run, he can't sprint many times. He is old after all.

At this time, he not only needs a fulcrum center to help him pull, he also needs a player who is good at forward insertion to help him push out.

Under this kind of double pull, Ancarelli can maximize his shadow edge ability.

Although Lu Yang and Ancarelli didn't have a tacit understanding, if Lu Yang was willing to step in at every opportunity, Ancarelli would be able to find a good opportunity from it.

The only hard work is Lu Yang. Sometimes, if he jumps in front of the team, he may not always attack. This is a waste of his physical strength and offensive enthusiasm.

But in terms of physical strength, there are not many other players, but a lot of Lu Yang!

And offensive enthusiasm... Lu Yang is very enthusiastic now.

Because this is his Italian national team debut.

One goal to become famous will always be the script that inspires young players the most.

In this game, Lu Yang will never admit defeat!

Seventy-seventh minutes of the game.

Sweden got a corner kick.

Lu Yang should be prepared to enter the penalty area to participate in the fight for the top.

But he noticed that there were two players in the opposing corner.

There is also a Swedish player in the front and outside of the Italian penalty area.

Because they are far from the core threat position, they do not have close defenders around them.

If this ball Sweden is going to play a tactical corner, then...

Thinking of this, Lu Yang rushed out and went straight to the corner flag area.

"what are you doing?"

"go back!"

"Get back!"

"Defend who you're supposed to be defending, **** it!"

Vincent cursed in the coaching area, this is not his corner kick defense tactics.

Lu Yang didn't follow his tactical arrangement at all.

Including Lu Yang's infinite number of forward thrusts before, Vincent is not happy to see it.

Indeed, this makes the Italian strikers more threatening to some extent.

But it also left a defensive loophole in Italy's midfield.

Vincent didn't pay attention to Lu Yang's always being able to return to his defensive position in time, he only looked at the points he wanted to see.

boom!

In the corner area, the Swedish team sent a corner kick.

Sure enough, it was a tactical free kick.

Lu Yang jumped towards the corner kicker immediately.

But the other side gently knocked the football to the side.

Another Swedish player made a cross.

As we all know, after the corner kick is issued, there will be a wave of card positions and a fight for the top in the penalty area.

But the tactical corner kick is a little too long for a second or two, and the players who are in the first wave of cards and headers will actually miss the best opportunities and opportunities.

At this time, the players who are inserted in the back row to grab the point are very advantageous.

And a player outside the penalty area arranged by the Swedish team launched an impact on the penalty area at this time, and after getting ready, jumped in and attacked the goal.

However…

boom!

boom!

Lu Yang made a defensive fake.

It appeared to be heading towards the corner kicker, but halfway through, he changed direction ahead of time and headed towards the corner kicker.

Therefore, when the opponent made a cross, Lu Yang appeared on the path of the ball.

Lu Yang stretched out his right foot and touched the football in less than 0.5 seconds after the opponent passed the ball.

The football flew high and rolled down the flanks to the midfield.

Without hesitation, Lu Yang ran over to the football.

The two Swedish players who took corner kicks also responded.

This is a counterattack belonging to Italy!

The opponent pulled Lu Yang for the first time, but it was not even close to Lu Yang's jersey.

"Oh! Lu Yang completed a wonderful gambling defense! He predicted the opponent's free throws and completed a wonderful interception."

"Now that the football is flying towards the midfield, Lu Yang's speed is very fast, and he has a chance to touch the ball first."

"Swedish players tried to pull Lu Yang, but there was no chance, Lu Yang was too fast!"

"I can't tell at all. Lu Yang's profile has entries about being good at defense, but he has never been quicker. I think it's time for the scouts to update the data cards that belong to Lu Yang in your hands."

"It was too late for the Swedish central defender to retreat. His speed put him at a disadvantage in the return defense, so instead of retreating, he advanced and rushed towards the football."

"Lu Yang speeds up! It's getting faster and faster!"

"Lu Yang hit the football first! Be careful!"

"The Swedish central defender came in front of Lu Yang with a sliding tackle!"

"Beautiful pick of the ball! Lu Yang leapt over the Swedish central defender with football!"

Boom!

The scene broke out into very enthusiastic cheers.

Italian fans are excited.

Lu Yang actually avoided the opponent's tackle and continued to maintain control of the football!

This is incredible!

In the entire Swedish half, in addition to the goalkeeper, there was also a right back in front of Lu Yang's right.

In front of Lu Yang, there is almost a flat river!

Lu Yang glanced at the opponent and kept dribbling on the wing.

Counterattack Vanguard!

Hurry on the sidewalk!

Kaka's stride meteor!

Lu Yang's speed completely exploded!

He is like a supercar and can't stop at all!

Seeing that the situation was not right, the Swedish right-back could only choose to move closer to Lu Yang.

He slammed into Lu Yang and had a violent physical collision with Lu Yang.

Can Lu Yang beat the opponent?

He may not lose!

But if he really collided violently with the opponent, it would be difficult for him to maintain his continued control of the football, and it would be difficult to maintain such a high-speed advance.

So Lu Yang made a choice.

He kicked the football sharply forward.

At the same time, Lu Yang was knocked off the sideline by the opponent.

The cheers of the Italian fans came to an abrupt end.

Instead, there was a vengeful celebration from the Swedish fans.

But the next moment, everyone's voice disappeared.

As if the throat was strangled by the hand of fate.

Bell's perimeter overtaking, start!

"My God! Incredible! Lu Yang was running fast outside the sideline, and he didn't stop!"

"Exceeded, really surpassed! Lu Yang is surpassing the Swedish right-back!"

"It's over! Lu Yang is overtaking on the outside! He even surpassed the Swedish right-back!"

"Cut inside! Lu Yang was the first to encounter football. His intention is very firm. He wants to cut inside!"

"It's over! Lu Yang went around a big arc, but in the end he ran in front of the Swedish right back!"

"Between two o'clock~lightnovelpub.net~Lu Yang is the shortest!"

"Lu Yang entered the restricted area, single-handedly!"

"The Swedish goalkeeper stood at the door, he blocked most of Lu Yang's shooting angles with his body. He was very calm, he..."

boom!

Lu Yang shoots furiously!

The Swedish goalkeeper's foot touched the football, but it did not prevent the football from entering the net.

One to one!

Italy equalized the game!

Teenager Lu Yang, who played for less than ten minutes, shot two goals, scored two goals, one was called offside, and one was undisputed!

At this moment, Italian fans finally see the light they need!

Lu Yang, YYDS!
