I AM the Football Star

”On the contrary, Atletico Madrid’s rare counterattacks almost always posed a threat, leaving Bar?a flustered. Judging by this match, we have reason to believe that no matter how many times Atletico Madrid and Bar?a play, Atletico Madrid is likely to be the winner.”

”Additionally, Atlético’s new central defender Fim Santos had an outstanding performance today. Atletico Madrid indeed got a bargain; his worth far exceeds ten million euros!”

”As everyone knows, in last season’s Champions League, Santos caused a severe injury to Lu Yang, who is still on crutches. If Lu Yang had played in this match, the result might have been different.”

Bar?a lost!

A losing streak in the league!

Actually, this game wasn’t a crushing defeat, as Atletico only managed to snatch a goal at the eighty-seventh minute.

But unfortunately, Mebarak’s previous words were too full of himself.

Bar?a doesn’t need Lu Yang!

The team won’t rely on just one person!

And now?

Lu Yang’s fans are leaving comments on Mebarak’s social platform.

”Yes, Bar?a may not need Lu Yang, but the other nineteen teams in La Liga sure do. Otherwise, they find it hard to break through Bar?a’s goal!”

”You’re the slowest turning player I’ve ever seen, bar none!”

”Turning an aircraft carrier! How did such a player infiltrate Bar?a?”

”By the time you turn around, I’ve gone through five hairpin turns on Mount Qiuming with my kid, even taking my hands off the wheel to light a cigarette! And even then, I’ve descended the mountain, and you still haven’t completed your turn!”

”To be honest, Domenguez hadn’t even accelerated, and you’ve already been left behind!”

”Truth be told, he’s not as good as Naji!”

What level are Lu Yang’s fans?

They’ve stuck with him from the Italian D Division to the Italian Third Division.

What level of doubt did they endure before?

They all survived it.

Now, Mebarak’s sarcastic remarks really seem a bit childish to them.

They could insult Mebarak in ten thousand ways without using any foul words.

Naji, far in Italy, looked at his brothers’ attack and felt something odd?

When did not as good as Naji become an insult?

From then on, Bar?a fans began to worry about Lu Yang’s injury.

Gudiola was being surrounded daily and finally had no choice but to announce Lu Yang’s recovery status: ”Lu Yang is doing very well; he might be back on the field in about a month!”

As soon as these words came out, fans were both happy and sad.

Happy that it could be by the end of October at the latest?

This was two or three months earlier than everyone’s most optimistic expectations!

But sad because, after another match, Bar?a will face the Galaxy Battleship.

And this time, in El Clásico, Lu Yang obviously won’t make it.

September 29th.

The second round of the Champions League group stage commenced as scheduled.

Dortmund drew 3-3 with Ajax.

Lu Yang’s fans impressively showcased their abilities, almost dominating the match.

Robin Fan scored two goals and made one assist, shining throughout the game.

Hanlanda scored twice and made one assist, earning the Man of the Match!

Peterk made several crucial saves, completing world-class defense, and he deflected an inevitable goal by Hanlanda with a header, which caused him to fall on the field, temporarily halting the match for five minutes.

Currently, it seems that Dortmund, ranked fourth in Group C, not only is not weaker than Ajax, but may even be slightly stronger!

In this way, Bar?a’s previous loss to Dortmund was not entirely unexpected.

Ajax one point, Dortmund four points.

On the other side, in the match between Bar?a and AC Milan, Mateo made a brilliant assist, and midfielder Burgos scored a long-range shot from outside the penalty area to take the lead against AC Milan.

But soon, Praxedes completed a breakthrough on the flank, crossed past Canisell, and Sogel outmatched Clement, scoring with a header!

Tie the score 1-1.

In the eighty-first minute, Mateo entered the penalty area but had no shooting chance, so he passed to the flank.

Ortiz, advancing forward, swept a cross in from the edge of the penalty area.

Defensive Andrés touched the ball, and it flew into his own goal.

Own goal!

2-1!

Barcelona took the lead and maintained it until the end.

Bar?a won their second European match.

But in this match, Mateo still couldn’t score.

He was still heavily marked by AC Milan.

This put a lot of pressure on him.

In the Champions League, Ajax, AC Milan, Barcelona, and Dortmund, surprisingly, the team ranked in the last pot, Dortmund, currently has the highest points.

After winning, naturally nothing happened.

Even if they lost, the match wouldn’t have had too many headlines.

Because from this day, all of Spain was buzzing in anticipation of El Clásico between Barcelona and Real Madrid.

”Zidane says he’s confident of taking three points from Camp Nou in the next match”

”Lima says it’s been a long time since he scored a hat-trick at Camp Nou!”

”Izalelt said last season’s 5-0 win at Camp Nou against Bar?a felt like a dream, and he’d love to do it again!”

”Enriquez hopes to continue his streak of scoring against Bar?a!”

”Young Real Madrid midfielder Collette hopes to play in El Clásico and help the team win the match!”

Real Madrid was buzzing with excitement.

But at Bar?a, players were reluctant to stand up for interviews.

Because if a player says something but fails to deliver, it would significantly affect their reputation and credibility.
