I AM the Football Star

Chapter 165: Chapter 64: I Wasn’t Cheated On, But You Really Are Miserable

In the player tunnel, players from both teams lined up, preparing to enter the field.

Everyone was chatting with each other.

The players from Gubbio were laughing and joking, not feeling much pressure.

Because San Remo wasn’t enough to make them take it seriously.

They only won two games, it was just luck, they aren’t a traditional powerhouse of the Italian Third Division, so why act so timid.

This is ”momentum”!

The cultivation of momentum is not achieved in a day or two.

Just like the Premier League Manchester City being unbeatable in recent years, it wasn’t achieved by winning once or twice, but by leading strongly season after season.

San Remo is far from reaching that step.

”Hey, did you guys hear? Sofia has a new boyfriend.” Gubbio’s number five player was sharing the explosive news he just heard, now the news was all over the place.

Not just in Italy, but across all of Europe’s entertainment sections, there were reports about Sofia’s rumors.

Sofia’s influence covered the whole of Europe.

”Really? Wasn’t Sofia’s boyfriend supposed to be... that kid from San Remo?” a player responded.

”Just think about how old he is, his little buddy is probably not even fully developed, how could Sofia be interested in such a rookie?” The number five player’s words lacked basic respect for Sofia and Lu Yang.

Lu Yang couldn’t pretend he didn’t hear that.

”Hey, buddy, if you don’t want to enter the field, you can just tell me directly, I can send you to the hospital right now,” Lu Yang walked towards the back of Gubbio’s lineup.

The Gubbio number five player was initially surprised that Lu Yang dared to come over directly, often times when opposing players heard bad things being said about them, they would pretend not to hear.

After all, what can you do after hearing it?

Besides, this is a shy Eastern guy!

”Oh, oh, oh, did I hit a nerve? What’s up, from the looks of it you want to fight me? Rookie, are you sure?” Although the number five player said this, why did his body take two steps back?

Honesty or physical honesty.

”I’m asking you now, do you still want to play the game, answer me, coward!” Lu Yang wasn’t much taller than the other party, but when his hard chest slammed into the opponent, his figure suddenly appeared much taller.

This is a suppression of aura.

Lu Yang is a well-known tough guy in Italy.

Every time he walks on the field with an upright chest, it reminds people of scenes where he stitched wounds on the sidelines and fought back bravely.

Meanwhile, the players from San Remo gathered around Lu Yang, quickly surrounding the number five player from Gubbio.

And some of Gubbio’s teammates were isolated outside, not knowing what was happening here.

”What are you doing, mate? Are you sure you want us to prove who is stronger in ways other than football?” Morici was the first to act, and if the 1.74 meters tall guy wasn’t being held back by the big guy Naji, he might have rushed in to start the fight.

In Sunshine City, ask around who’s the boss!

As long as it’s not 1v1, Morici is number one in a brawl!

These are famous titles.

It’s unknown how much Morici pays Naji to hold him back every time in these situations.

In response, Naji said no money was needed as Sotu specifically talked to Naji about this, saying he hopes Naji would stop Morici, otherwise after Morici gets there, he would soon have all the players kneeling and begging him... begging him not to die.

At this time, the referee also arrived, intervening in time, advising both parties to calm down.

Although the Gubbio number five player never verbally admitted defeat, his expression betrayed him.

He was definitely scared.

This scene was noticed by the field director and put on the big screen.

The field roared with boos.

It’s unclear if they were booing San Remo’s players for breaking the rules, or Gubbio’s players for being too cowardly.

In the stands, several reporters felt that they did not come in vain.

Without a doubt, the conflict between Lu Yang and the opposing player must have been because of the news about Sofia.

After the game, interviewing that number five player would grab the headlines.

...

Beep!

A whistle blew, and the game officially began.

Gubbio took the kickoff at midfield, and the opposing team started passing in the backfield without rushing to attack.

But on the San Remo side, one person rushed out like a mad dog, without following the normal kickoff routine or taking initial positions.

This person was unexpectedly... Lu Yang.

Lu Yang charged at Gubbio’s player with the ball, and the opponent passed the ball away.

But soon the opponent found that Lu Yang didn’t let go and followed the ball over.

At this time, Gubbio wanted to launch a fast attack.

They intended to exploit Lu Yang’s position, which must be empty.

However, when Gubbio’s central midfield core looked up after getting the ball.

Although no one was in the left-back position of San Remo, Latu Yidi’s position was very far back, transforming from left central midfield to a defensive midfielder, effectively covering Lu Yang’s lost position.

This quick attack couldn’t succeed.

At this point, Lu Yang already rushed over.

Lu Yang’s speed exceeded this central midfield core’s expectations.

He quickly returned the ball to their number five player.

That was their defensive midfielder.

Indeed, Lu Yang once again dashed towards the ball, looking as if he wouldn’t stop until he got the ball.

Such behavior seemed reckless.

If Lu Yang was up against top-tier passing and control teams like Barcelona, Spain, or Manchester City, then this rash challenge wouldn’t have yielded any gains, but rather would have been penetrated by the opponent.
