If you are a brother, come and play football

Chapter 336 The Biggest Rival for the Golden Globe Award (Please Subscribe)
Inzaghi never expected the hat trick to come so quickly.

More importantly, there's a vague feeling that he might not need to do much; he could simply be a pure poacher.

It’s so perfect.

As a striker born on the offside line, he has a natural instinct to beat the offside trap.

That's why he was able to start at just the right time.

Every startup is extremely demanding, and there are absolutely no problems.

Lu Deyang's pass was just that perfect.

If you send it quickly, he might not be able to get it immediately.

If the pass is too slow, he might have to wait for the ball, and there's also the risk of him being offside.

This is the perfect understanding between a top-notch offside trap specialist and a passer.

That's why Inzaghi felt that he might not need to do as much as he did in Atalanta, and could simply roam around the opponent's defensive line.

Nesta stood with his hands on his hips, looking somewhat helpless.

Lu Deyang didn't even have to do anything to Lazio himself before Lazio collapsed.

This feeling made him very unwilling.

After all, he had already simulated the possible one-on-one situations thousands of times in his mind long ago.

In reality, Lu Deyang never plays one-on-one with him.

His teammates made numerous mistakes under Lu Deyang's passes.

Can't say the same.

It was just a matter of one move short.

Inzaghi seized the fleeting opportunity.

Lu Deyang caught the pass.

A problem that wasn't a major issue has put Lazio in a difficult position.

Oh shit!

This feeling is quite bad.

It feels like you're endlessly charging up Ralf's super special move, only to have it easily dodged every time.

It felt like punching cotton.

All I can say is that this first head-on confrontation was completely different from what he had imagined.

The substitution board has been raised on the sidelines.

Davis replaced Lu Deyang.

Nesta kicked the air hard, knowing there was no chance to exchange blows.

But he accidentally got a cramp and collapsed to the ground in pain, clutching his leg.

While his teammates were massaging the soles of his feet, he could only watch as the number 7 player walked to the sidelines.

Alessandro Nesta silently vowed that he would definitely come back.

……

"come on."

After exchanging high-fives with Davis, Lu Deyang left the court and stood on the sidelines of the bench.

Keke glanced at Lu Deyang with a shifty look in his eyes.

When Lu Deyang noticed him, he asked in a low voice, "There's a party later. Filippo and I have already arranged it. Deyang, do you want to go? Manuel Acuri is there!"

Fearing Lu Deyang would refuse, Keke quickly said Manuel Akuri's name.

At this time, Acuri had not yet become entangled with so many star players, nor was she the later Juventus "godmother".

However, she was already one of the most popular young actresses at a young age, which shows that Italy still prefers this type.

Her face shape resembles that of Gong Li, which is not Lu Deyang's type.

However, Lu Deyang was still quite curious about this person, so he nodded and said, "Count me in, we'll go together."

"Okay, maybe inviting you wasn't a wise decision, the girls all like you."

Keke said in a pretentious manner.

Lu Deyang smiled in response.

This guy is popular for his looks, so he said that on purpose.

The main reason was to show off in front of the King of Land Balls.

However, AC Milan is now truly a team of male models; the players have no problem with their physique and appearance, and even Zieger, who joined in the summer, is a handsome guy.

There's something strange about it.

The German full-back may not be old, but he has quite a few wrinkles.

His facial skin looked somewhat loose, and his teammates said he had killed the real Sieg and was wearing a human skin mask.

The match ended with a score of 5-0.

Lazio were utterly humiliated by Milan's counter-attacking style.

The main problem was conceding the goal too early.

Sacchi did not make things difficult for Eriksson at the post-match press conference.

He's usually quite easy to talk to when he wins.

"Deyang!"

After parking the car, Keke waved and called out.

"You guys go first, Francisco and I will follow your car," Lu Deyang said, waving his hand.

His main concern was that Keke was a little worried.

Because that playboy seems to drink and drive.

Who knows if he'll take out a flask and take a sip when he gets in the car.

Why isn't Gigi here?

Lu Deyang asked.

Redondo, his good friend, went along to have fun with them.

"Haha, he's been upset for a long time now that he's seen me graduate high school," Totti, who was driving, grinned.

At least in the war on illiteracy, he has already taken the lead.

He will soon graduate from university in Argentina.

"That's actually a pretty good reason."

Lu Deyang said with a smile.

Having a competitive spirit is not a bad thing, especially when it comes to studying.

Even if you don't pursue further studies, it's good to learn more basic knowledge.

Just like in the era of paper money, some people, despite having a high level of education, still couldn't calculate the change they should receive when buying things.

The three of them followed the car to the northwest of Milan, a place not far from Lu Deyang's home.

There is no vacant land in the city; if you want a large area, you can only live in the suburbs.

After I got off the bus, someone came to greet me.

Coco immediately introduced, "This is the future famous director Leonardo Cosciardo, and my teammate needs no introduction, right? Leo."

Cosicado immediately shook Lu Deyang's hand and said, "I've always been a Milan fan, and your joining Milan is a dream come true. Also, I'm not some big director, I just like making movies."

Lu Deyang looked at his house and got a general idea of ​​the situation.

This director, who isn't very famous, probably has a good father.

Star athletes like to hang out with directors, and Lu Deyang strongly suspects it's because they have connections.

Any director can call up a few pretty girls.

Kosicado introduced Lu Deyang and others to other guests, including some film industry professionals, among whom were actresses, such as the future Juventus godmother, Acuri.

There are also several models, including Michelle Henzel and Elizabeta Canaris.

Lu Deyang recognized them all.

Just like girlfriends in the e-sports circle might switch teams, there's only a small group of girls who like to hang out with players.

Lu Deyang felt somewhat saddened by Vieri and Inzaghi's aesthetic preferences, as both men favored women with square faces.

It was possible that Coco would get involved with Gisele Bündchen in the future, but unfortunately it didn't last long.

Koko and Inzaghi went to curry favor with Akuri; the two were rivals.

Lu Deyang simply found a place to sit down, and Redondo and Totti followed suit.

"Aren't you going to talk to the director or screenwriter, Fernando?"

Lu Deyang asked.

"Come on, I've seen their movie. If the screenwriter didn't drink while writing it, then he must have forgotten the meaning of the title 'The Graduate.' All I saw was a female psychopath with a lot of inner monologues going from an onset of illness to a temporary cure," Redondo complained.

Lu Deyang silently gave a thumbs up.

My good buddy has seen a lot of movies.

"So how do you think we should handle the female lead's inner thoughts?" Someone holding a wine glass raised his glass in greeting when he saw Lu Deyang and the others looking over. "I'm the screenwriter who drinks while writing."

Redondo blushed; it was the first time he had been caught speaking ill of someone.

Lu Deyang said with a smile, "Fernando has always loved movies and has a deep understanding of them, but that's not necessarily all right. After all, everyone has their own Hamlet."

The newcomer pulled up a chair and sat down, smiling as he looked at Redondo.

Redondo was somewhat annoyed and said, "The film should be an ensemble piece based on its title, not just about one person. Even if you're going to film female students, there should be three or four people for comparison. Each person's situation and difficulties are different. In the end, the group overcomes the difficulties together and plays in the sea at the beach. The shots should capture the feeling of youth."

“You’re talking about Hollywood movies,” the screenwriter said.

“I’m talking about movies that make money,” Redondo said somewhat bluntly.

The other person looked somewhat embarrassed.

After all, his movies don't do well at the box office.

Lu Deyang was reminded of the movie "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants".

My good brother really has good taste.

He could tell what a movie should be like just by looking at it.

After all, your name is there, it's "The Graduate".

That must be aimed at young men and women; serving the target group well is the most important thing.

Lu Deyang chose to get up.

The Little Prince, however, remained seated there.

This guy can be incredibly stubborn sometimes.

Let him listen to scriptwriting; who knows, maybe one day the Little Prince will be able to write something himself.

I must say, this courtyard is very well done.

The roses, whose names Lu Deyang couldn't recall, were in full bloom, almost covering the entire wall of the manor.

Just taking care of these flowers and plants costs a lot of money.

For example, Lu Deyang's family doesn't have a full-time gardener. They come twice a week and charge hundreds of euros each time. It's like in the movie "Goal!" where the father drives a pickup truck with his children and workers to do the work. Mowing the lawn is the cheapest service, while things like annual soil turning and winter pruning are more expensive.

Sometimes, when the flowers get sick, they need to come to our homes to treat them.

To make it visually appealing, you need to spend a lot of money.

"Aren't they beautiful flowers?"

Someone walked up from behind and said that.

"I look at them mainly because these flowers originated in China."

Lu Deyang said with a smile.

The Rosaceae family consists of East Asian flower species. Roses are drought-tolerant and cold-resistant, making them quite easy to grow.

In Italy, you need to water your plants more in the summer, but the temperature is fine at other times.

"Oh, I see. That explains why there are so few flowers."

Lu Deyang turned his head, saw the other person, and said with a smile, "You're a model, right?"

“Michel Henzell, I hope you’ll remember me next time, King of Milan,” the girl said, raising an eyebrow and extending a hand.

Lu Deyang reached out and shook her hand.

"I thought you would kiss my hand, Your Majesty."

Michel Henzell joked.

"Let's start over."

Lu Deyang said.

Henzell did not reach out his hand, but instead sat down at Lu Deyang's feet.

Lu Deyang simply sat down as well.

"Is the party boring?"

"Michel Henzell asked."

"It's alright, I just came with my teammates to see what it's like," Lu Deyang said. "I've played football in Italy for many years and haven't participated in many gatherings outside of the football circle."

“I thought a superstar like you lived like Maradona,” Michel Henzel said.

"How can it be."

Lu Deyang said speechlessly, "If I liked playing so much, how come I've never been in the newspaper?"

"That's true."

Michel Henzell nodded.

She immediately changed her tone and said, "I've met Sophie Marceau before. After I told her I liked watching you play, she said some things that surprised me. You might not be as honest as you say."

Lu Deyang: ...

Oh shit.

Why are you showing off to others?

"so?"

Lu Deyang asked.

This girl is obviously interested.

She didn't answer, but simply turned to the side and lowered her head.

……

"Dejan, was there a girl sleeping on your lap just now?" Totti asked on the way back.

Redondo almost burst out laughing.

"Yes, yes, she said she likes watching you play football, so we chatted for a while."

Lu Deyang said, glancing down at his pants, "I'll need to wipe them with a damp towel later."

"Really? I also feel like I'm quite popular lately."

The little prince said excitedly.

Since leaving Rome, his career has skyrocketed.

Both the club and the national team are doing very well.

Barring injury, he will definitely be a starter for the Italian national team this summer.

Totti hummed an unknown tune.

Redondo said in a low voice, "Sometimes having simple thoughts makes you happier, which is really enviable."

Lu Deyang rolled his eyes in annoyance.

After playing Udinese, the Champions League season is about to resume.

Interestingly, AC Milan and Real Madrid were drawn into the same group, with Feyenoord and Košice as the other teams. It's basically a foregone conclusion that Manchester United and AC Milan have secured their spots in the knockout stage from this group.

Group A consists of Parma, Borussia Dortmund, Galatasaray, and Sparta Prague.

Group C consists of Dynamo Kyiv, PSV Eindhoven, Newcastle United, and Barcelona. The qualification situation in this group is unpredictable and can be described as a group of death.

In Group D, Manchester United only has Porto as a decent opponent. Rosenborg and Olympiacos are of average strength, and without Lyon, Real Madrid is basically guaranteed a win.

Group E consists of Bayern Munich, PSG, IFK Göteborg, and Besiktas.

Group F consists of Monaco, Bayer Leverkusen, Sporting Lisbon, and Belgium's Lilles Club.

The Champions League has expanded, and this season's format is exceptionally brutal.

Only the group winner is guaranteed to advance, while the remaining two quarter-final spots are given to the two best second-placed teams, leaving very little room for error. Even the powerhouses could be upset.

This competition format effectively eliminates the possibility of dark horses.

After all, with four rounds of group stage matches, strength and consistency are more important.

They couldn't even make it to the quarterfinals, yet they claim to be a dark horse comeback.

The existence of six groups makes this season's Champions League exceptionally brutal; if a top team is eliminated in the group stage, it will certainly become a laughing stock.

There has been a significant increase in discussions about the Champions League.

Gazzetta dello Sport wrote: "The Champions League group stage draw this season is quite interesting. Real Madrid didn't have enough UEFA coefficient points, so they were drawn into the same group as Milan, which is their biggest misfortune. Although Real Madrid should be second in the group, anything can happen in the Champions League, and it wouldn't be surprising if Real Madrid didn't advance. Manchester United, currently the team with the second-most UEFA coefficient points, was drawn into an easy group, and Manchester United's striker Ronaldo is Dejan's biggest competitor for this year's Ballon d'Or."

If Ronaldo can score a hat-trick in every subsequent match, he should have a chance to beat Dejan in the Ballon d'Or voting. However, the FIFA World Player of the Year award is unlikely, as his fame is far less than Dejan's.

Lu Deyang almost burst out laughing when he saw this.

Italians can be really sarcastic and unpredictable.

Ronaldo scored 41 goals in a season, which is definitely a lot.

However, he lost the direct confrontation, and even lost the goal he created. Considering their different positions, it's not surprising that he couldn't beat Lu Qiuwang.

It's understandable that Gazzetta dello Sport insists on calling him their biggest rival, but the gap between second place and the King of Lu is quite large.

Next year, he or the bald guy might be more competitive.

We'll have to see who the biggest winner is in the 98 World Cup.

The Italian sports newspaper "La Gazzetta dello Sport" focused on analyzing the key players of the two group's top teams and made some transfer recommendations for Italian teams.

Italian teams are so willing to spend money that even Hierro has been on their recommended list.

As for Raul? Sorry, the "Lord of the Rings" is not yet worthy of being recommended by the Italian media to a top club, and smaller teams can't buy the young Bernabéu prince.

The media recommended players of Ronaldo and Rivaldo's caliber to Italian powerhouses, since Italy's previous attacking players were Klinsmann, Zico, and Maradona.

Generally, top-tier players don't deserve important positions in elite clubs; only superstars do.

That's how arrogant they are; even the English have to watch the faces of the Italian media.

Gascoigne's failure in Italy gave the Italian media more reason to look down on English players. Alan Shearer? That kind of player might not be able to adapt to the brutal Serie A.

In the first round against Košice, Milan easily defeated their opponents 3-0 away from home.

The best striker in this round was Newcastle's Fastino Asprilla, who scored a hat-trick against Barcelona, ​​outshining big-name stars such as Luis Enrique, Rivaldo, Luis Figo, and De la Peña, helping Newcastle defeat their opponents 3-2.

Although the media raved about him.

However, this Colombian international still finds it difficult to gain people's trust.

Aside from his time in Colombia, he only scored double-digit goals in one season after moving to Europe.

Interestingly, he seems to be a big-game player. If it weren't for Lu's influence, Milan would have had a 58-game unbeaten run, and the one who broke that record was Fastino Asprilla, who was in Parma at the time.
