Chapter 1024 - 248: Explosive! Football’s Nemesis of Ten Thousand
Luo Cheng shook his head: "Maybe it won’t take that many chances?"
Guan Zeyuan was speechless.
In Europe, I’m already quite an exaggerated Lu Chui.
Didn’t expect that after returning home, I’d almost become a Lu Black.
Isn’t this too ridiculous?
Do you believe in Lu Yang’s abilities that much?
The next moment!
"Holy crap!"
Guan Zeyuan, after all, hadn’t cultivated good commentary habits yet, directly swore, deduct fifty bucks.
But at that moment, countless people were just like him.
Because less than a minute into the kick-off, Bernulin completed a beautiful defense in the backfield and passed the football to Moriba.
And the young player Moriba didn’t hesitate, sending a long ball towards the left side.
Bai Zhami had a moment of inspiration, breaking out for a single opportunity.
Bam!
Bai Zhami frowned as he shot.
His ankle hurt a bit!
Although a flesh wound doesn’t hurt fundamentally, it does hurt when it should.
Bai Zhami is quite carefree, but he has nerves, and the pain caused his movement to unconsciously transform.
So the curvature wasn’t enough.
Sure enough!
Sporting Lisbon’s goalkeeper successfully saved the single chance.
But the next moment, the football flew back, heading straight towards the open goal.
Lu Yang, like a ghost, charged into the box for a successful follow-up shot.
Two to one!
San Remo took the lead.
Lu Yang scored twice!
When a player scores only one goal in a match, you can say he squandered many opportunities.
But if he scores twice in a match, no matter how many chances he squandered, you can only say he’s awesome.
Because in football, scoring is this challenging.
One goal is a bit mediocre, but two goals give anyone a get-out-of-jail-free card.
At this point, Lu Yang’s performance has upgraded from lame to top-tier.
The eightieth minute.
Lu Yang’s performance continued.
Morici and Delarre continuously coordinated down the middle, breaking through Sporting Lisbon’s defense.
Then Morici sent a direct pass, penetrating all defenses.
Lu Yang had long exchanged positions with Talista, residing within the penalty box.
The box is my home, goals rely on everyone.
Bam!
The force of Morici’s pass was strong, and under normal circumstances, even Lu Yang would miss the ball.
This is the only downside of Morici’s passing, demanding too much from the forwards.
Insufficient shooting skills, explosive power, concentration, can’t handle his passes.
But Lu Yang’s brain works well.
He immediately went to ground, making a slide shot chasing the football.
Bam!
The football hit the net, Sporting Lisbon’s goalkeeper had no response to the quick pass and quick shot.
Three to one!
Lu Yang’s ten-minute hat-trick showcased explosive scoring ability once again.
"Cool!" Morici ran over to give Lu Yang a big hug.
Finally, an assist.
As a fellow Golden Boy Award winner, it would look bad if he had no performance in this match.
Without knowing, some might think he was overshadowed by Averro.
"Lu Lu, your state recently seems off." Morici leaned on Lu Yang and said, "When you play now, there’s more build-up, but the actual scoring time is only five or ten minutes..."
"Isn’t your performance on the field and in relationships the same style?"
"Not enough time, so make up with the build-up?"
Whack!
Lu Yang slapped Morici to the ground: "People who like saying others are quick are usually quick themselves!"
Morici was thunderstruck.
Did he get exposed?
Whole game, eighty-seventh minute, Averro scored again.
He played flamboyantly in the penalty area, forcing a foul from Bernulin.
The main referee actually gave a red card and penalty combo.
The match which seemed to have ended early now had suspense again.
Averro stood on the penalty spot, taking a deep breath before stepping back.
Areola was fully focused.
A whistle sounded.
Charge.
Shot.
Averro completed the move smoothly.
Bam!
The football flew out.
Bam!
Areola dove to his right.
Accurately saving the ball.
He judged correctly!
This ball lacked extreme power and angle, playing it safe.
If the goalkeeper chose the right direction, there was a high probability of saving it.
Averro became nervous.
He didn’t dare to take it to the extreme.
Because this penalty could largely determine Sporting Lisbon’s fate in the Champions League this year.
Under immense pressure, Averro was still too young.
The match score thus froze at three to one.
San Remo defeated Sporting Lisbon once again.
Thus, San Remo, at ten points, secured early advancement, and locked the first place in the group ahead of time.
If Sporting Lisbon wins the next round, regardless of Arsenal’s results, Sporting Lisbon will advance as group second.
But if Sporting Lisbon doesn’t win, then they are in danger.
At that time, Sevilla and Arsenal both would have the chance to advance.
This is definitely not good news for the young Sporting Lisbon.
Facts have already shown they lack experience in key matches.
Their team’s Golden Boy Averro is no exception.
However, the only comforting thing for Sporting Lisbon stars is that Lu Yang praised Averro during the post-match interview.
Lu Yang: "Averro is excellent. As a young player entering the Champions League for the first time, his performance has been outstanding and stable. If I remember correctly, in every Champions League match he’s participated in so far, he’s scored goals, which is an incredible achievement."
"A penalty is about luck. Averro wasn’t lucky this match, that’s all. But I believe he’ll seize the opportunity when it comes next time."
