Lu Yang’s stats have slightly improved.

This is indeed an unexpected surprise.

Moreover, he can feel that his rapport with Praxedes, Perrotta, and Ancelotti has also been enhanced, much stronger than before using the Peak Card.

This will be a huge help in the next final match.

The next day, the day before the European Cup final.

Many football legends have highly praised Lu Yang’s remarks.

Mr. Winter didn’t hold back his words of praise: ”Such great vision! He is the most selfless player I’ve ever seen! On the field, he can yield a penalty. Off the field, he’s willing to share the credit with his teammates!”

”In fact, regardless of how the media evaluates, we cannot overlook the tremendous help Lu Yang has provided to this Italy Team.”

”For the championship, Lu Yang gave up personal honors. This kind of behavior is even more impressive in the eyes of a head coach like me. I can responsibly say that there isn’t a head coach who doesn’t want a player like Lu Yang!”

Gudiola: ”Yes, I once said I prefer Morici over Lu Yang. I definitely wouldn’t spend big money to buy Lu Yang, but that doesn’t mean if Lu Yang were in my team, I wouldn’t like him!”

”As Mr. Winter said, there’s no head coach who wouldn’t like a player like Lu Yang in their team.”

Chelsea head coach Felish: ”If I hadn’t already asked too much from my boss, I would definitely request him to bring Lu Yang to Chelsea! This player is exactly the type I appreciate the most! He can handle all tasks, and he doesn’t even seek credit!”

Sir Manchester: ”Few players can stay rational in the face of such great honors, let alone willingly give up part of the glory! This is akin to after Izalelt led AC Milan to win the Champions League, saying that the credit belongs to the whole team, not him. But even Izalelt couldn’t do it, yet Lu Yang did!”

Real Madrid’s Old Buddha: ”Without a doubt, a player as excellent as Lu Yang is already on Real Madrid’s radar, and we will bring him to Bernabéu Stadium at an appropriate time! We will bring fans every star they are interested in!”

Such a climax made the flow of this European Cup reach its peak.

Until this afternoon, when the Copa America champion emerged!

Yes, the Copa America!

This year’s Copa America and the European Cup were held in the same year.

But as we all know, the Copa America doesn’t hold much weight, at least it falls short by three-quarters of a European Cup.

The reason is not just that there are far fewer strong teams in America than in Europe, fewer teams overall, no qualifiers, etc. It’s also because the views on the European Cup among European countries and those on the Copa America among South American countries differ.

European countries generally consider the European Cup the highest honor in European football.

Conversely, in South American countries, especially in football powerhouses, the Copa America is seen as just a regular major event.

Because some tournaments lack challenges, the king of South American football, the Brazil Team, even takes this event as a venue for training young players.

This situation is not what the South American Football Association wants to see.

Look at how much UEFA earns.

What about the South American Football Association?

They’re really envious!

Moreover, the South American Football Association does have talented people, and they also wish to expand the influence of the South American Football Association to a level that can rival FIFA and UEFA.

Even if they might not achieve it, if you don’t try, you’ll never succeed.

From the perspective of the South American Football Association, they are genuinely prepared to contribute to South American football.

So, this year’s European Cup, the South American Football Association took a very strong stance, demanding that Brazil must send their real main lineup to participate, or they would set obstacles for Brazilian football in all aspects.

Considering that the next World Cup will be held in Brazil, Brazil was afraid of disruptions from the South American Football Association, so they agreed to the request.

Let’s all contribute to South American football together.

And Brazil showed everyone in the subsequent Copa America why they use it to train new players.

Because their main lineup really cannot be contained by the Copa America!

In six games, they scored 25 goals and conceded only two, with an average of more than four goals per game!

The Brazil Team, in an invincible manner, won the Copa America championship with six consecutive victories!

The others simply had no chance to play.

Besides Brazil, the runner-up Uruguay, and the top four Argentina and Chile seemed genuinely to be on the same level; they are a notch above other South American countries, but the Brazil Team is two to three levels above them!

With Brazil’s full main lineup, the Real Madrid superstar Alien Lima scored twelve goals, winning the tournament’s Golden Boot!

The Barça superstar football elf Moreira had seven assists, becoming the top assist provider of the Copa America!

And Brazil’s new nucleus, Real Madrid’s new transfer, and the new Champions League champion Izalelt scored five goals and provided five assists, being named the tournament’s best player!

The Brazil Team is invincible!

Izalelt, winning another intercontinental championship, is very likely to lock in this year’s Golden Ball Award!

The reason we say ”likely” is that if France Team wins the European Cup, then Robben will be more competitive than Izalelt.

European Cup champion + Champions League runner-up is definitely greater than Copa America champion + Champions League champion!

While the Champions League might have the highest level of competition, the European Cup is definitely more important than the Champions League. After all, the Champions League is held annually, but the European Cup and Copa America only happen every four years, well... the Copa America almost happens every year now, ha.

From this perspective, if France wins, Robben can suppress Izalelt.

But given Izalelt’s popularity over the past two years, even if Robben wins the European Cup, Izalelt can still rely on personal charm to gain an advantage in the selection, competing against Robben.

Additionally, if France wins, Zidane also has a small chance to counter these two.

The France Team is Zidane’s own turf, and if he fully goes for the Golden Ball, the entire French media would rally for him.

But in doing so, Robben would be severely split in votes, making the Golden Ball unattainable.

For a moment, after Brazil won the Copa America, it was actually the France Team that was most troubled.

They faced the exact same situation as Italy did yesterday.

Does Zidane retain his chance to compete for the Golden Ball, or does he make way for others, attributing the credit to Robben, assisting Robben in his final showdown with Izalelt?

What will Zidane choose?

”If I were you, I definitely wouldn’t give away what’s mine!” Zidane’s words still echoed in Lu Yang’s mind, with past events vividly in view.

But that very night, Zidane posted his personal opinion on social media regarding the Copa America and the Golden Ball Award: ”If this year the France Team can win the European Cup, Robben will undoubtedly take the Golden Ball Award!”

”He is the greatest contributor to why the France Team has come this far this year!”

With these words, there were no more disturbances in the France Team, and everyone united with one goal, to prepare for the battle against the Italy Team!

And Lu Yang almost burst out laughing!

Oh Zidane!

You sneak!

And you say yesterday’s call wasn’t to sow discord within our Italy Team?

Then why aren’t you competing with Robben now?

You sly Mediterranean, so crafty, you’re bound to go bald sooner or later!
