I AM the Football Star

Chapter 451: Chapter 126: Returning Home to Italy? (9,700-Word Chapter)

Do you really think just having a foot to shoot is enough?

The shooting posture of countless top players can be slightly off, and any slight impact during the shot can cause them to miss the ball.

Not to mention a young player from the Italian Third Division?

But in the next moment, the center-back’s eyes widened.

Because he felt Lu Yang’s force leaning against him suddenly increase.

This sudden increase in force left him no time to react.

In the next second, Lu Yang, with his back against him using him as a pivot, completely lifted off the ground, striking the falling ball mid-air from outside the penalty area with a sideways volley!

Without the center-back for support, Lu Yang wouldn’t have possibly leaped so high with his body inclined to this degree.

At this instant, the center-back and Lu Yang seemed to become one, and he actually served as the main point supporting Lu Yang’s center of gravity.

Bam!

The ball shot forth like lightning, turning into a streak of white light!

The England goalkeeper didn’t have time to react at all.

The ball rushed into the net, tirelessly rumbling as if it were roaring madly.

Batigoal!

Unstoppable!

”Roar!!”

Lu Yang glanced at the ball in the net, full of awe!

Then he turned and ran towards his teammates in the backfield.

”It’s in, it’s in, it’s in! Lu Yang finally scored!”

”Equalizer! Italy has equalized the score!”

”Who dares to believe it, I ask who dares to believe it? Who dares to believe this goal!”

”If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have imagined that football could be played like this! What imagination, what an amazing heel flick over in the run!”

”Chaloba is like a wooden post, he doesn’t even know what happened! When Lu Yang shot, Chaloba was still looking around aimlessly for the ball!”

”The England Youth Team’s tall center-back defended diligently, but Lu Yang was even more aggressive!”

”Lu Yang perfectly utilized his body strength; amidst such fierce competition, he completed a super shot!”

”When Lu Yang shot, his body was almost parallel to the ground! This sideways mid-air volley is simply incredible!”

”I have to say, Morici understands Lu Yang the best! His passing is always so astonishing!”

”Indeed, the pass before this goal was exceptionally brilliant! Especially before the free kick, Morici’s push towards Lu Yang going to the frontfield might become the turning point of this match!”

”Morici is so magical! Can he foresee the future? This isn’t just a midfield brain, it’s practically a prophet! Draft him, it will certainly not go wrong!”

”Areola contributed a divine save and also initiated an attack! He wasn’t crushed by England’s three goals, and did not disappoint Maniero’s call!”

”Oh! This goal is a link between players of the same club! San Remo linkage emerges! Players of the Italy National Youth Team have won respect for themselves! They defended the dignity of Italian football!”

”Redemption! Cortino completed self-redemption! He earned a great red card! He retained a glimmer of qualification hope for the Italy National Youth Team!”

”Cortino’s foul was too valuable! His red card stopped an opponent goal and indirectly led to our subsequent goal; he’s an absolute hero! I think he must already be going wild in the locker room!”

”Long live Cortino!”

The commentators went utterly wild!

On the field, Lu Yang celebrated intensely.

He was almost unlike himself!

”Celebrate with me, quick!” Lu Yang said to the surrounding teammates, ”Keep celebrating, don’t stop!”

As he spoke, he was already running towards the Corner Flag Area at England’s baseline.

Morici instantly understood.

Why celebrate?

Instead of fishing the ball out of the net?

Bear in mind, with Lu Yang’s character, as long as the match hasn’t ended, his primary goal is victory!

Meanwhile, ensuring victory aside, his goals include scoring further goals, making more assists, and such.

A draw was never a pursuit of Lu Yang.

Yet this time, after equalizing the score, Lu Yang didn’t immediately pull the ball out from the opponent’s net; instead, he vigorously encouraged everyone to celebrate to delay time.

This...

Already employing military tactics, it seems!

Until the England Team players complained to the Main Referee about the Italian’s prolonged celebration, only then did the Main Referee remind the Italian players to return to their half ready to continue the game.

Only then Lu Yang smiled and accepted the Main Referee’s reminder.

Equalizing the score, who should be anxious?

Obviously, it’s England.

Because, with a draw, England only has five points.

If Spain takes the lead, England will be extremely passive.

No, the Spanish have already taken the lead.

Of course, it’s said the situation over there is still unstable; the Polish are still striving to equalize the score, hoping to earn more points, even if unable to qualify, but at least showing those supporting them that the Polish never stop moving forward!

Just now, Pavovsky scored another goal, but it was ruled out for offside.

The Spanish circumstance isn’t stable.

Nevertheless, to grasp the limited time, the English must actively attack, even push forward heavily.

While the Italians can counter English attacks from a defensive posture.

The coaching team of the England Youth Team also saw through Lu Yang and others’ scheme, they cursed, envying the opponent players’ cleverness.
