I AM the Football Star

And among them, the player most deserving of scrutiny is—Lu Yang!

The King of Last Minute Goals! Young Lu Yang has scored the most last-minute goals in this year’s European Cup!

The Golden Boot Battle! Who will ultimately emerge as the winner of the European Cup Golden Boot battle between Robben and Lu Yang?

Champion Bloodline! Lu Yang has won every final he’s participated in so far! He is Italy’s super lucky charm!

More than a lucky charm! Five games, ten goals, five assists, the perfect player template has emerged!

King of Injury Time! Lu Yang’s efficiency in injury time is the highest in all of Europe!

Last-minute? Injury time? His most accurate title should be King of Clutch Goals!

A commentary titled ”King of Clutch Goals” has garnered widespread attention.

This article comes from China, and the author ”Yao Youguang” believes that Lu Yang’s performance at crucial moments is phenomenal... unprecedented.

In the last ten minutes of each of Lu Yang’s five European Cup matches, he scored a total of five goals.

Among these, two were equalizing goals, allowing Italy to earn a point or enter extra time, making an indelible contribution to subsequent victories.

Another two were match-winning goals, directly securing victory for Italy.

This includes the recently concluded, highly important European Cup semi-final!

In these five matches, the only one where Lu Yang didn’t need to step up as a savior was the Italy VS Russia match.

Because in that match, Russia faded too early, leaving no need for Lu Yang to save the day.

This performance is unprecedented!

But for some reason, the European media had an improper attitude when scrutinizing this article.

They had previously always praised Lu Yang generously.

However, after seeing domestic media reports, they were not at ease.

They could praise Lu Yang, but they couldn’t accept Lu Yang being praised by the mainland.

Does it sound absurd?

Yet that’s exactly how they think and act.

French media seized on this point and began to focus on writing about this issue.

French Football: Italy’s victory is a team victory, we can’t just attribute the win to the one with the best-looking stats, that’s unfair!

Under this headline, French Football listed ”the ten decisive moments of life and death for the Italy Team in this European Cup.”

They picked ten players, claiming their contributions were crucial for the team.

The reason being that if at these ten moments, they hadn’t made miraculous goals, passes, tackles, or saves, Italy would have gone home long ago.

From a reader’s perspective, there seems to be no issue with this claim.

Because if you follow their logic, you naturally see the scenery they want you to see.

Yet seasoned and relatively professional fans could counter with ”Lu Yang’s determination of Italy’s life and death in this European Cup in twenty moments”!

You don’t need ten people.

Lu Yang alone could make up twenty such moments.

This is the truth.

However, French Football, leveraging their enormous influence in the football world, promoted it with those ten moments.

”Praxedes is forever the god! An all-round performer in both defense and offense! He is Italy’s biggest contributor! That Lu Yang is merely a thief of success!”

”Are you sure? Go watch Lu Yang’s games for yourself, whether it’s his performance or stats, he is not inferior to Praxedes! He also excels in both offense and defense!”

”Perrotta is invincible! Five goals and three assists, every statistic is more precious than gold! The Wolf King crowned Italy National Team’s current top scorer! He is a more daunting presence to opponents than Lu Yang!”

”Ancelotti had an epiphany, he stands still on the pitch and can still create threats. Such a player cannot be described by statistics alone! In comparison, Lu Yang is still too young!”

”Ha! Isn’t it Lu Yang who can’t be described by statistics? If you’ve watched his games, you’ll know his impact is far greater than his stats suggest! While Ancelotti is impressive, Lu Yang shouldn’t be belittled!”

Such opinions have appeared in many places, even sparking debates among Italy fans themselves.

Indeed, some fans are intent on resolving this issue definitively.

This infuriated Lola, who was replying condescendingly to those comments.

But what comforted Lola was that she found two ”comrades”!

These two people, just like her, argued against the news belittling Lu Yang with reason and evidence.

It seems Lu Yang’s charm is immense, he already has such devoted male fans.

Indeed, due to personal habits, Lola was using a male account.

But she believed the other party had no need to disguise their gender like her.

She had already greeted them on social media, and they formed a very united ”Protect Lu Yang Front.”

They aimed to become the first die-hard fan team within the Lu Yang fan organization.

Of course, through exchanges, they also realized the other party was very clear about the purpose behind this French Football narrative guidance.

French Football intended to replicate the German Team’s internal strife incident, causing Italy Team players to lose their heads in the face of immense glory.

If a conflict arises between Lu Yang and the aforementioned players, Italy would fall apart without needing an attack from others.

Moreover... behind this, French Football actually has a deeper implication.

But Lola didn’t mention it, as it would seem too far-fetched to others, even for Lu Yang’s die-hard fans who might find it hard to accept.

One of the two most prestigious awards in the football world, led by French Football, the Golden Ball Award, hasn’t had a player under twenty-two years old in the top thirty shortlist for thirty years.

Does this mean there hasn’t been a player under twenty-two with a top thirty performance?

Of course not!

But... as the most authoritative award at the competitive level, the Golden Ball Award is now becoming less pure.

The invisible age restriction is just one of the manifestations of their lack of purity.

Cutting Italy’s honor cake of reaching the European Cup final in advance is part of French Football’s strategy to solve problems early.

Because Italy hadn’t achieved such a result since Maniero and Sotu retired from the National Team.

It’s been ten years!

If certain trends become tides, arranging it later would inevitably cause many disputes.

Thus...

This is called planning ahead!

French Football can live vividly by wielding the Golden Ball Award, not without reason.

Although they are the award that focuses most on competitive strength, the microphone can sometimes determine a player’s competitive strength!
