Chapter 1185 - 282: The Test Has Begun, But Not Fully (Super Long - —I’m Exhausted, Please Support with Monthly Tickets)

It’s not when Lu Yang is holding the ball with his back turned, he can use his body and small movements to disrupt Lu Yang’s dribbling.

This is a face-to-face duel, the attacking side is the one with initiative.

In the stands, Zhang Linyan suddenly froze.

He looked at the figure in front of Bayern’s penalty area facing off against Apple, and felt a sense of familiarity.

"Marseille Turn! Lu Yang pushes the ball to the right, then uses Fried Meatballs to the left, then uses Marseille Turn midway to forcibly change direction and once again to the right!"

"Lu Yang’s real breakthrough direction is to the right, he pushes the ball and accelerates, his explosive power is fully displayed!"

"This step could possibly bypass ninety-nine percent of the center backs in the world!"

The commentator speaks extremely fast, unaware of why he’s so smooth.

His commentary speed almost reaches synchronized levels with Lu Yang’s actions.

This means he’s barely thinking, not even waiting for his brain to process the information his eyes see and then convey it to his mouth and tongue.

This is quite unusual.

This indicates...

"Oh dear! Apple is too fast! And his legs are too long! He actually kept up with Lu Yang!"

"Damn, Lu Yang has completely lost his shooting angle now!"

"Wait, these series of movements, I feel like I’ve seen them somewhere?"

As soon as the commentary began, fans all over the world froze.

Then, everyone remembered the viral clip on the internet in the past two days of an eleven-year-old Chinese girl completely dominating San Remo’s main center-back Naji.

Pushing the ball to the right... Fried Meatballs to the left... Marseille Turn again to the right... pushing the ball to the right to bypass the defender... afterward is... the heel kick to change direction to the left, pulling back the direction, then a step to push the ball to the left, and following it up with a shot!

In Zhang Linyan’s eyes, Lu Yang’s figure became clear, exactly the same as her figure in front of Naji earlier.

In a flash, Lu Yang and Apple’s gazes met.

Lu Yang is much stronger than Zhang Linyan, this push of the ball was almost unstoppable.

But Apple is also much stronger than Naji, this step-up ability is rare for any player to break free from.

Without Apple, Lu Yang would be unbeatable in this match!

Without Lu Yang, Apple would be unrivaled in this match!

Strongest against strongest!

"I’ve seen that video!" Apple laughed, "Open-book exam, I always score full marks!"

After saying this, Apple shifted his focus in advance to the opposite direction.

If Lu Yang was going to use a heel kick, he would push the ball away before Lu Yang could catch up with it again!

Approximately half a second faster than Lu Yang!

No one expected Lu Yang to replicate a girl’s technical moves.

But no one expected that Apple would watch the video so closely.

Some people become the world’s number one for a reason, not just luck.

Moreover, when Apple shifted his weight, it was when Lu Yang’s feet were off the ground, just as he was preparing to execute the heel kick move.

So in this round, he was certain to outmaneuver Lu Yang.

Lu Yang, after all, was too young!

At this moment, top players around the world were watching the screen.

Izalelt: "If it were me, I would push the ball faster than Lu Yang, maybe I could get a shooting opportunity... but the scoring probability is small, without the heel kick change, the shooting angle is too small."

Gutierrez: "I’d shoot from distance facing Apple as soon as I received the ball, I trust my shooting skills!"

Mike Loring: "I’d crash into Apple... or be crashed by him!"

Lima: "I wouldn’t change direction left or right, I’d just stride past Apple."

Moreira: "If I were Lu, I wouldn’t use heel kick to change direction, I’d try a lob over the top, but Apple is a bit tall."

Mateo: "I would nutmeg Apple during a spin!"

Nelka: "I can’t perform Lu Yang’s set of technical moves, I don’t have a good solution."

Jelando: "Such a pity!"

Ancelotti: "Extra time... San Remo is in trouble."

Carrel: "There’s no way out, this match is tense!"

Perrotta: "If I were five years younger, maybe I could withstand him for a shot!"

Everyone knew Lu Yang’s shot would be intercepted.

Only Zidane smiled slightly.

Everyone seemed to have forgotten what Lu Yang’s move before the heel kick change was.

It was a push!

Before that, it was a Marseille Turn!

In fact, with Lu Yang’s dribbling skills, there’s no need to add that push!

His understanding of the Marseille Turn is no less than Zidane’s.

They can interrupt the Fried Meatballs directly with the Marseille Turn, and certainly can use the final pull of the Marseille Turn to accelerate, achieving the effect of a pushing ball, skipping a step.

This is something Zhang Linyan couldn’t do.

But Lu Yang did not simplify the steps.

Why?

Because the pull in the second half of the Marseille Turn is actually hard to control the strength.

By comparison, pushing the ball is easier to control the speed, distance, and direction.

The simpler the technical move, the easier it is to manage the details.

This is why Lu Yang previously chose Cycling and Fried Meatballs instead of the Rabona.

He wants everything within his control.

"Open-book exam?" Zidane smiled, "Indeed it’s open, but... not fully!"

As soon as the words left his mouth.

Lu Yang’s left foot landed successfully on the right.

The right foot swept to the right and back.

Indeed it’s a heel kick change...

Wait!

No!

It’s not a heel kick change!

It’s... Rabona!

Lu Yang’s right foot touched the ball, but not with the heel, rather with the instep!

He connected the front half of the heel kick change with the Rabona.

It’s challenging but achievable.

And the difference between the two is that the latter is half a second faster than the former!

Lu Yang predicted Apple’s prediction!

Bang!

The ball flew out from between Apple’s legs.

Rabona shot!

Prior to this, Bayern goalkeeper Bauer had no view.

Or rather, he had actually repeatedly watched Zhang Linyan’s dribbling video too.

He knew Apple would solve Lu Yang.

Even if Apple failed.

The ball would only come flying over half a second later.

Rhythm... this is extremely important for a top expert.

Bauer, as one of Germany’s best goalkeepers, had already reached the level of saving based on match rhythm.

This is why top goalkeepers can often stop many incredible goals.

They might not see the ball, but if you judge the opponent’s rhythm correctly, some problems become simpler.

Whoosh!

A streak of white light emerged.

Just passed by Bauer’s side.

Bauer remained motionless.

He watched the ball with open eyes, but his own rhythm had locked him in place, turning him just like Apple, into a wooden stump.

Beep!

The main referee pointed to the center circle, indicating the goal was valid.

The score on the big screen changed.

Four... five!
