The Purple Lily’s parked bus, this time without reservation.

Even if Lu Yang wants to take a long shot, they won’t go out.

If you have the guts, knock down all of our players, otherwise someone will always step forward to block your shot.

Bam!

Unable to break through the Purple Lily turtle shell, San Remo grew anxious, Lu Yang took a long shot, hitting Versachi.

Versachi fell to the ground immediately.

Lu Yang sighed, then ran over to check on Versachi’s condition.

Versachi lay on the ground for a while, but eventually stood up resiliently.

Being hit by the football, you need a moment to recover.

Then, applause rang throughout the stadium.

”We won’t give you any chances!” Versachi stood up and gave Lu Yang a high five, ”Long shots can’t produce much curvature, all of us will use our bodies to block your goals.”

When a player plans to use their body to stop a goal, their defensive area expands significantly.

And the only way around the player’s body is a curved shot, such as a bending or slicing strike, which Lu Yang can also do, but the threat is diminished.

The shots that truly make Lu Yang seem unbeatable, like Carrel, are violent long shots.

Straightforward, with extremely fast speed.

Hard to defend while running.

But in a static battle, as long as you’re willing to take the hit, you can defend.

Next, two other Purple Lily players demonstrated this point with their actions.

Lu Yang took two consecutive long shots, both blocked by their bodies.

One used his leg, thankfully.

One used his head directly, making Purple Lily fans’ hearts skip a beat.

Even Lu Yang, honestly, was a bit hesitant to shoot.

in shooting.

in foot power.

Plus Batigoal!

A blow to the head could indeed result in serious injury.

Football is just a game, it can’t be placed above life.

Florence players risking their lives for victory was truly shocking.

Lu Yang himself had done such things, but this was his first time viewing it from the opposing side.

To be honest, he felt... he couldn’t bring himself to shoot.

He could risk his health for victory but couldn’t jeopardize others’ health for the same.

He’s not a saint, but he doesn’t want to see anyone fall on the field because of him, or even... fall forever.

The crux of the matter is, such shots have little effect, the scoring chances are slim, and the blocked ball can lead to counterattacks.

At this point, continuing with long shots feels more detrimental than beneficial.

Time passed, roughly five minutes left in regulation play.

The entire San Remo team started becoming restless.

”Talista!” Lu Yang called Talista and looked at him.

Sometimes, eyes can speak.

What’s more, Talista, as a top central forward, could understand Lu Yang’s feelings at this moment.

So, in an instant, Talista understood Lu Yang’s intention.

Talista: No!

Lu Yang: It has to be this way!

Talista: Brother, it’s not necessary!

Lu Yang: We have no other options.

Talista: This isn’t a joke, lives are at stake!

Lu Yang: If something happens, I’m responsible.

Talista: MMP!

No one knew what the two communicated.

In the eighty-sixth minute, San Remo conducted play outside the Purple Lily’s penalty area.

Morici passed to Delarre.

Delarre passed to Talista.

With someone behind him, Talista didn’t try to turn, even if he turned, there were several Purple Lily players.

He dribbled horizontally twice.

The Purple Lily players didn’t attempt to intercept.

The core of positional defense is to refrain from rashly extending your foot.

The moment you extend your foot, your center of gravity commits to a desperate shift.

If you fail to intercept the ball, you’ll be stuck for about a second.

At this point, if the opponent makes a move, you can’t keep up.

To block Lu Yang’s long shots, all Purple Lily players must maintain their body’s agility.

Thus, they’ve completely given up on intercepting.

Besides, what if they intercept?

Launch a counterattack?

Wouldn’t that require players running toward San Remo’s side?

If the counterattack fails, it would lure them out?

They are already at five to four, and six to four would still be the same result, they don’t need to score anymore.

They just need to defend the last four minutes.

Due to these reasons, Talista’s horizontal dribbling didn’t encounter much trouble.

Of course, the Purple Lily players were closely following Talista, not giving him much space.

During this, Lu Yang also adjusted his position, swapping places with Morici.

Talista made a back pass, kicking the ball to Lu Yang.

Then he made an unexpected move.

He instantly shrunk his neck, and his whole body crouched down.

This...

Bam!

Facing the ball, Lu Yang didn’t stop it, directly taking a powerful shot.

The entire Purple Lily team went into heightened alert.

A long-range strike!

Everyone watched their surrounding spaces with their peripheral vision, ready to block these paths with their bodies at any time.

If this scene were frozen, one could see densely packed red and yellow areas.

The red areas are the spaces occupied by Purple Lily players, indicating impassability.

Yellow areas are enveloped by these players; even if blocked, the ball would hardly pass through.

In the entire middle area, there is almost only one green channel.

That is...

The position occupied by Talista.
