Chapter 1112 266: The Allure of That Fall (Part 3)

Kaint smiled slightly, indicating not to worry, he wouldn't do such a thing, he's a defensive midfielder and doesn't fight for stats.

This ball almost shattered the last bit of confidence Paris Saint-Germain had.

Except for Boe.

In the ninetieth minute, Boe was dribbling, attempting an inward cut on the wing.

He got past Canyes but was tackled by the recovering Lu Yang.

Without waiting for Boe to counter-tackle, Lu Yang booted the football directly towards the front field, without time to aim.

The football landed within the control range of Paris Saint-Germain's central defender Lande.

He waited for one or two seconds and then sent a long pass to the right wing.

Miguel received the ball in midfield, glanced at the penalty area, and delivered a forty-five-degree cross.

His unique angel curve sliced through the sky.

Inside San Remo's penalty area, Naji, Stiepelman, Bernulin, Sevajos, and Lu Yang, who had completely transformed into a defensive player after the big kick, were all fiercely contesting.

Finally, the football flew out of bounds.

Under the influence of Lu Yang and Naji, Stiepelman misjudged the header, the football posed no threat to the goal.

But due to the chaos, some players believed it was a corner kick.

The main referee's decision was very accurate, indicating it was a goal kick.

Boe was very dissatisfied, his emotions had already lost control.

He questioned the main referee why it wasn't a corner kick, claiming it clearly was.

The main referee stated he saw very clearly.

Logically, Paris Saint-Germain's players should have gone to pull Boe away at this moment.

But because of the wasted opportunity that just occurred, at least at this moment, the teammates were quite displeased with Boe and didn't feel like persuading him at all.

Moreover, what could persuasion achieve?

An extra twenty seconds of time.

Could this lead to scoring two goals in a row and reversing the match?

Not realistic.

In the end, the main referee handed Boe a yellow card for continuously questioning him.

The Parc des Princes was filled with booing.

But it seemed not directed at the main referee, but at their own player Boe.

Areola kicked off the goal kick.

Lam seized the landing spot and passed the football to Lu Yang beside him.

Lu Yang swung his leg, prepared to pass the ball to Talista up front.

Paris Saint-Germain players anticipated and ran beforehand, ready to encircle Talista.

Naturally, Lu Yang made a feigning action, moving the ball to the side, and began dribbling himself.

Wasting time is good, a long pass isn't necessary.

Moreover, his position was already near midfield, losing the ball wouldn't pose a fatal threat.

As the Paris Saint-Germain players wanted to turn around and tackle Lu Yang, Lu Yang already tapped the ball past them.

Lu Yang accelerated, sprinting swiftly along the right wing.

Facing Paris Saint-Germain's left-back, Lu Yang made a step-over feint.

The opponent defended against the cut-in, so Lu Yang continued down the baseline.

But suddenly, Lu Yang stumbled to the ground.

The football rolled out of bounds.

Afterward, Lu Yang held his ankle with one hand, staying on the ground without getting up.

Only then did he notice a red alert on his system interface.

It seems it had popped out earlier; he just hadn't noticed because he was focused on the match.

Presumably, it appeared when he scored that critical header.

"Ding! Your Achilles tendon has ruptured!"

"Ding! Ironman skill injury immunity effect activated; the injury will not affect your status in this match. After the match ends, the injury will still exist, but it will be randomly reduced to some extent. Meanwhile, your injury recovery speed is increased to two hundred percent!"

No wonder Lu Yang felt severe pain just now.

Turns out it was a ruptured Achilles tendon.

Although it doesn't affect status, the pain was the main reason for his fall.

After scoring the decisive goal, while running towards the corner flag area, he fell once.

Estimated similar situation as now.

Back then, Lu Yang was too excited, didn't pay attention to the system interface and his body's feedback.

Facts prove that the frantic secretion of adrenaline can really make a person temporarily stronger and reduce pain sensation.

This injury is largely related to Stiepelman's suppression.

But also a result of Lu Yang's long-term overload in matches.

If he didn't have injury immunity, his career might have ended two or three times already.

But with injury immunity, he appears more like a "normal" player.

Players not matching Lu Yang in match volume, match tasks, running distance each year aren't uninjured even once.

Many are even ruined early.

After confirming his injury, Lu Yang calculated.

As long as luck isn't too bad, this injury might not affect his next Champions League semifinal.

His worried heart settled down.

Then lay on the grass accepting the team doctor's examination.

Once the team doctor touched him, the person almost vanished.

Lu Yang's symptoms highly resembled an Achilles tendon rupture; it could basically be judged as a rupture.

Because a tear wouldn't cause Lu Yang to suddenly fall without opposition and with sufficient strength.

Paris Saint-Germain's players surrounded Lu Yang, expressions varied.

Initially, they thought Lu Yang was faking an injury to waste time.

This is too common, they can't help but overthink.

But looking now, Lu Yang was injured at least a bit, after all, the team doctor's expression didn't seem acted.

The team doctor was panicked.

For a moment, Miguel, Stiepelman, and others looked despairingly at the sky.

Even if Lu Yang wasn't injured, after eliminating Paris Saint-Germain, San Remo couldn't possibly continue in the Champions League.

Moreover, now Lu Yang seemed out.

Given the chance, might as well let us Paris Saint-Germain try, we at least have a thirty percent chance to reach the Champions League final.
