<European Under-21 Championship The death group meets in the final! England is not unjustly eliminated!>

<Two teams in the finals, one team with the highest call for winning the championship before the game, what exactly happened to Poland?>

<Poland scored one point, even though they lost, it was an honor because they defeated three championship-level opponents!>

<Blue Rise! Italy reached the finals of European Under-21 Championship, setting the best record in international competitions in the past 12 years!>

<Miracle on Germany European Under-21 Championship! Italy revival!>

<Three to zero! The championship is won! Spain European Under-21 Championship has a probability of winning as high as 79%!>

<Three games, six goals and three assists, Lu Yang is chasing Enriquez, striving for the European Under-21 Championship golden boot!>

<The assist hat trick locks European Under-21 Championship as the assist king in advance! The legendary life of Italy midfielder Moric!>

<San Remo Twins, don't leave Lu! Lu Yang is simply a shooting machine that can get assists!>

European Under-21 Championship has finally reached the finals, and media from all over the world are excited.

No matter how exciting other games are, the final will always attract the most attention.

Of course, during this European Under-21 Championship, there were actually many transfers of young players.

Their performance on European Under-21 Championship was almost immediately reflected in their worth and suitors.

Poland Forward Pavlovsky was European Under-21 Championship's top scorer in the group stage. As soon as Poland was eliminated, more than five giant clubs made offers for him.

But it is a pity that whether it is Lyon of Ligue 1, Napoli of Serie A, Wolverhampton Wanderers of Premier League or Villarreal of La Liga, their quotations did not exceed 20 million euros.

This is obviously a tentative offer, but it makes Werder Bremen very distressed.

How can I explain to Bayern Munich if you don't give me a price of more than 2,500?

What's more, the brand influence of the above-mentioned teams is obviously not as good as Bayern Munich.

The player's personal intention is to play for a bigger club.

Therefore, Werder Bremen rejected all offers, indicating that Pavlovsky is not for sale.

But in fact, it is almost certain that Pavlovsky will go to Bayern Munich next year.

And what is certain is that the transfer fee will never be higher than the teams that made tentative offers this year.

This is Bundesliga.

At the same time, many players are transferring.

But as the top young player in this transfer period, Mancini's transfer has already happened.

Therefore, few people can steal the limelight from the final of European Under-21 Championship, another top card, Enriquez.

Before the final begins, the media from both sides naturally want to build momentum.

But now Spain's media is very embarrassed.

They finally realized the situation England Media was in before.

What situation?

Naturally, he was in the situation of being stabbed in the back by Lu Yang!

Before European Under-21 Championship started, England media trumpeted the excellence of Lu Yang.

Because in the Champions League finals, Premier League team Liverpool borrowed the experience of San Remo, completed the ultimate comeback on the night of Istanbul, and won the long-awaited Champions League trophy!

Liverpool captain Gerando unabashedly said "Thank you Lu Yang" after the game.

At that moment, Lu Yang was almost the savior England was called by the media!

Be a perfect player!

But European Under-21 Championship starts playing, and the match between Italy and England will depend on whether England can appear.

At this time, the England media naturally can no longer brag about Lu Yang.

But because they boasted a lot before, now they want to belittle Lu Yang and slap themselves in the face, so they can only start from the Maniero, Italy Youth National Team lineup and other issues to belittle Italy.

But this is not enough after all.

Because Italy Youth National Team's de facto number one, Lu Yang, has never been attacked by public opinion.

This makes other accusations made by England media weak.

Now, it's time for Spain media to experience all this.

Italy Youth National Team defeated England Youth National Team, sending Spain to the first place in the group and allowing them to qualify.

After that game, Spain Youth National Team watched the game between Italy and England before leaving. When Italy won, they were also celebrating crazily for Italy.

Afterwards, Lu Yang's classic images such as the heel pick and back pass, as well as the news that Italy defeated England, also appeared on the homepage of Spain's major football media.

As a result, in less than a week, Italy became the only obstacle standing between Spain and European Under-21 Championship championship trophies.

Even if you say that Lu Yang is a rookie and Italy is extremely weak, no one will believe it.

Who made you so involved in the publicity before?

On the contrary, Italy Media does not have such trouble.

At most, <la Repubblica>, who has a dirty butt, is still publishing news such as "Spain could beat Italy three to zero before, but there is an insurmountable gap between the two."

Other media predict the results based on the food chain rules such as England defeating Spain and Italy defeating England.

For a while, Spain, who should have been trumpeting the championship, did not make much noise, and did not create much pressure on Italy in terms of public opinion.

They lost the advantage they originally had.

"Ding! You led the team to the European Under-21 Championship finals and received a random gift package and a basic point."

"Ding! You opened the random gift bag and obtained the ball star skill, Bergkamp's Knock-and-Run!"

Lu Yang looked at the system panel and almost lost his breath for a moment.

Bergkamp's Knock-and-Run?

This... isn't it an exaggeration to say that it's a superstar skill?

Ice Prince Bergkamp's Knock-and-Run, that is simply a work of art.

To be fair, although Lu Yang played Cristiano Ronaldo's classic man-ball match against England.

But anyone who has watched that game knows that Cristiano Ronaldo's heel pick this time is impossible to say without any surprises.

Judging from Cristiano Ronaldo's own reaction, he had anticipated this move, but he used a little too much force to pick the ball.

And in the subsequent stop, Cristiano Ronaldo actually made an obvious mistake, so that Pique had time to move to a defensive position.

However, due to the luck of the ball king and Cristiano Ronaldo's shooting skills, his shot hit the goalkeeper's heel and bounced through the crotch into the net, creating this classic scene.

It can be said that this goal cannot be copied because there are too many coincidences.

But Bergkamp is different.

Bergkamp's Knock-and-Run can be copied, which is a kind of control that is unique to him.

Just like every time Neymar makes a pass, he is dancing on the edge of a knife. The scene is stunning but the result is unknown. Even Neymar himself does not know whether the football will be at his feet after this pass.

Most of Messi's excellence is his absolute control of football. No matter whether he can pass someone or not, the ball must be at his feet anyway.

This is a different art of football.

Affected by this, the properties of Lu Yang have changed.

Offensive movement 82-83

Tight ball control 80-81

At the same time, he also increased his arc from 78 to 80.

At this point, Lu Yang's strength has definitely reached the star level.

However, the system cannot be updated in real time and will only be updated after the end of the season, so his star barrier still exists, and 85 is still the limit of his abilities.

Considering that Serie B will play in the next season, Lu Yang is relatively accepting of this.

It's not a bad thing to take this opportunity to comprehensively strengthen yourself.

If the foundation is not strong, the ground will shake!

After entering Serie A next season, it will be too late to get better.

After all, his current defensive ability may be adequate at Serie B, but it will probably be weak at Serie A.

To borrow a sentence from <la Repubblica>, the gap between Top Five Leagues and other leagues is insurmountable.

Beep beep beep!

Lu Yang's cell phone rang.

"Hey, Lu Yang, we've arrived at Berlin, and we're on our way to the hotel now." Tang Yuqin's voice sounded.

"Okay, I'll be right over." Lu Yang replied.

Afterwards, Lu Yang tidied up his appearance a little, and called and asked, "Sophia, have you packed up? It's time for us to set off."

"Of course, I will behave very appropriately." Sophia said that he knew the importance of this invitation and chose an elegant and conservative black dress.

Soon, Lu Yang and Sophia left the team's hotel together.

Half an hour later, in a distinguished suite of a hotel, Lu Yang and Sophia knocked on the door.

All entrances and exits on this floor are guarded by men in black wearing Chinese tunic suits.

The people in the house are precious beyond words.

"Are you here? Grandpa, let me introduce to you, this is Lu Yang, this is Sophia..." Tang Yuqin is very sensible, what should we do at this time.

Girls from big families always know the rules.

Rules seem to be a constraint.

But when the relationship has not reached that level, it is a kind of existence that allows both parties to feel freedom, respect and nature.

"Hello, young man, I am your fan." The old man was very humorous and extended his hand.

He has white hair, but it is not messy.

He is very old, over eighty.

Tang Yuqin should not be his oldest grandson. I heard that some of his grandsons can be regarded as feudal officials!

"I am also your fan!" Lu Yang communicated with the old man in fluent Mandarin. He shook hands with the old man and bowed slightly.

It is said that football is the war of modern society.

Football stars are, in a sense, also war heroes.

But this old man is a real war hero!

"Don't curse, I know fans are a curse word in your football world." The old man said that he also knew football very well.

Lu Yang said with a smile, "You can't say that, team fans are not nobler than human fans. Team fans themselves may even start by falling in love with a player, right Manchester United, right? And in modern commercial football, team fans are actually far more pathetic than human fans."

"What fans may admire are the spiritual qualities of certain stars, such as not admitting defeat, etc. But what team fans admire are also the spiritual qualities of certain teams, such as never walking alone, etc."

"But the will and quality of the stars are real, and the will and quality of the club will actually change dramatically as the people in charge of the club change."

"So, the home team that many fans support has actually disappeared a long time ago, but they just don't know it or are unwilling to admit it!"

"From this perspective, I prefer to be a fan. If the stars I like stop working hard to win and no longer respect my hometown, then even if I am heartbroken, I will stop loving them as soon as possible."

"But if I were a team fan, then I would think that this is just a problem for some people, not a problem for the team I love. Therefore, I would tolerate all their mistakes and become a puppet for what they want. In fact, this is an escape from facing the cruel reality."

"Only by self-respect and self-love can you gain the respect and love of others, and the same goes for fans."

The old man raised his eyes, listened to Lu Yang's words, and motioned for Lu Yang to sit down, with a smile on his face.

After Lu Yang finished speaking, the old man asked, "Then where is your hometown?"

Lu Yang looked at the floor-to-ceiling glass window of the living room, which was to the east.

"China!" Lu Yang said firmly.

"Okay!" The old man's voice suddenly became louder, startling Tang Yuqin.

"This is Europe, the famous actress Sophia, your new movie is very nice." The old man greeted Sophia appropriately, without neglecting anyone.

"It's an honor for my work to be recognized by you." Sophia acted very well-behaved, without any aura of a big sister in the entertainment industry.

She knows what qualities to show in what situations.

She has come into contact with many senior officials and even leaders of Europe countries, so she has figured out a way to get along with these people.

Of course, this old man has another identity for Sophia.

That is...Lu Yang Fang's elder!

Although the other party and Lu Yang have only just met, there is no doubt that these heroes are the elders of all the young people from the East.

Whether a woman is decent or not depends on whether she can handle various situations appropriately after being taken out.

This kind of "family situation" is obviously something Sophia needs to adapt to.

"Okay, okay, I'm here to watch football, don't make it too grand." The old man said, "By the way, Xiao Lu, you said last time that Italian Football Federation wanted to hold some games in our country. What's the progress now?"

Lu Yang said, "It seems that China Central Television is mainly responsible for following up on this matter, and some domestic clubs are also actively participating. But the Football Association seems..."

The old man frowned.

Those losers are causing trouble again?

If you're full, you'll feel exhausted.

"Xiao Chen." The old man waved, and a secretary-looking person next to him came over, "You can follow up on this matter. I hope there will be a competition in China this year... Of course, it is not the kind that wastes people and money, but is a normal, formal, mutually beneficial and win-win type of business cooperation."

The secretary nodded, then took out his cell phone and walked out the door.

Let's not talk about letting China National Football Team break into World Cup, establish a football youth training system, and strive to be the top of Asia. At the very least, it can allow domestic fans to watch one or two high-level top football games. This is always possible!

Otherwise, when China National Football Team rises, I am afraid that countless people born in their 80s, 90s, and 00s will die, let alone eighty-year-old fans like the old man.

In fact, this conversation did not involve too much official content, but rather some trivial matters, such as Lu Yang's injury recovery, prospects for next season, etc.

Even after Chairman Italian Football Federation, Chairman Martivni, Chairman German Football Association and others learned that the old man was coming, they also wanted to visit, but they were all rejected.

The old man just came to watch a game.

For this reason, German Football Association has arranged super safe and luxurious private rooms.

Lu Yang couldn't use the game tickets he prepared for the old man.

This is also a good thing, after all, the old man is so old, and he seems to be an ordinary person, like Xianyun Yehe, but if you really think that the old man is an ordinary person, then you are really too ordinary.

July 28th.

European Under-21 Championship The day before the final day.

Tuttosport announced the latest ranking of this year's Golden Boy Award.

Among them, Spain star Enriquez once again won the first place, beating Mancini, the record holder for transfers of players under the age of 22.

England star Mancini ranks second.

Obviously, European Under-21 Championship has a greater impact on their ranking this time.

Poland star Pavlovsky's age is stuck at the selection limit, ranking fifth.

Germany star Melkan's ranking soared from 18th to 7th!

This has something to do with him leading the team to the semi-finals of European Under-21 Championship!

However, in this list, Ceballos, the highest-ranked young player of European Under-21 Championship final team Italy, is only ranked ninth.

It's a few steps ahead than before, but not by much.

Because although Ceballos has scored three goals this year, he has also participated in the instigation of several goals, and is one of the main contributors to Italy's success today.

But compared to Lu Yang, who scored six goals and three assists in three games, and compared to Moric, who scored two goals and six assists in three games, he is undoubtedly not the real core.

There is one thing to say, Moric with Lu Yang, its dominance in the midfield is simply unique.

He has basically locked in the assists leader position in advance.

But even with such an abnormal performance of Moric, he only rushed from being nowhere on the list to Golden Boy Award being in the forties.

It's a dozen places lower than Canyes.

Lam rested on his laurels, ranking in the 70s without much gain or loss. His performance this year, European Under-21 Championship, was not outstanding. He may have hit his own bottleneck. Everyone can see this.

Lu Yang, the undisputed number one hero of Italy Youth National Team, only ranked twenty-fifth on this list.

To be fair, in a list, it is impossible to move a player from over 90 to the top ten just because of his sudden performance in a few games.

The ranking of Lu Yang has jumped directly from the top 100 to the top 30. It can be said that it has already jumped up.

But why Italy fans are not satisfied.

Mancini is very strong?

So why is Mancini outperformed by Lu Yang in terms of goals, assists, or team record?

You know, Mancini was kicked out of European Under-21 Championship by Lu Yang!

Not to mention the top three, but you still have to give me the top ten, right?

There are also Melkan and Pavlovsky, both of which are in the top ten.

I, Lu, am the only one who co-authored it, so I'm over twenty?

Don't forget, Golden Boy Award was selected by Italy media!

Tuttosport Is this a personnel matter?

Lu Yang Sixty goals in a single season can't win over your hard-hearted hearts?

Are you really taking Serie C out of a football match?

Why don't you go to Serie C to score sixty goals and see?

Even Ceballos posted the ranking of Golden Boy Award through social media and followed it with a question mark.

Brother Lu is twenty-fifth, and I, Xiao Sai, are ninth. Are you messing with me?

I can't carry this pot!

After seeing the news posted by Ceballos, Lu Yang nodded with satisfaction. Xiaosai is a good Xiaosai. This kid can handle it and he can look forward to his future as a star!

Golden Boy Award The selection party is really confused.

This year is definitely the most difficult year since the establishment of this award.

At first, because of their stance, they stood decisively opposite Martivni.

Therefore, Lu Yang is quite unfavorable.

But later, Lu Yang kicked out horrible data when Serie C was alive, so they had to put Lu Yang into the top 100.

As a result, now, Lu Yang is killing people like crazy on European Under-21 Championship again, and its ranking has skyrocketed.

I still remember they said before that Lu Yang will not take Golden Boy Award anyway.

But if...Lu Yang really beats up all the kids in the top two picks of Golden Boy Award, no matter how scientific models you use later to analyze and prove that they are more qualified to win Golden Boy Award than Lu Yang, the fans can deny it.

Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second.

For most of its history, football awards have been less controversial.

The ones that are more controversial are the ones that anyone can take.

If Lu Yang defeats Mancini and Enriquez, this prize will become a situation that can be given to anyone.

Give it to Lu Yang because his record with the National Youth Team is invincible.

But for Enriquez and Mancini, because they have been famous for a long time, are extremely popular, and have excellent data and records in high-level competitions, they have advantages in the club.

Therefore, although all Italy are supporting the National Youth Team, Tuttosport really hopes that Italy will lose cleanly.

In this way, this year's golden boy is revealed, Enriquez, without any controversy.

How nice!

But this idea of Tuttosport was shattered in the first minute of the European Under-21 Championship final on July 29th!

Berlin Olympic Stadium.

Spain VS Italy.

Thirty-seven seconds after the game started, Lu Yang, who had been dribbling horizontally near the midfield line after receiving the pass from Soguer, found the opportunity and lobbed a shot from the circle, successfully catching the Spain goalkeeper off guard.

One to zero!

Italy Youth National Team has a dream start, entering the field with one to zero!

The entire stadium was silent for several seconds, and then exploded instantly, with cheers filling the sky.

"LU LU LU!"

Those who couldn't figure out the uniform cheers thought that the League of Legends S series finals had begun.

Because the history of European Under-21 Championship is only forty or fifty years ago, this goal should be the fastest goal in the history of European Under-21 Championship finals.

Lu Yang has set another record!

So far, Lu Yang has caught up with Enriquez in this year's scorer list of European Under-21 Championship, also scoring seven goals!

"Oh my god! It's too fast! Lu Yang is too fast!" The words of the on-site commentator almost made many fans watching the live broadcast almost burst into laughter.

Moric If you know, you will definitely feel comforted in your heart.

After all, although he only has one to three minutes, Lu Yang only has more than thirty seconds.

The advantages are still huge.

In the private room.

"I thought he would get to know the other party for a period of time before implementing his wild ideas." Martivni was so proud that he now wanted to ask his competitor, I, Martivni, have made both Italian Cup and European Under-21 Championship so prosperous, how should I lose?

"I also thought he would be a little reserved." Tang Yuqin was also in the private room, and she looked at her grandfather.

The old man said, "It's normal for people with high skills to be bold! When we fought, we didn't have time to get familiar with the enemy. It would be a life-and-death battle!"

"Lu is very outstanding. He is destined to become a legend of San Remo. No matter where he goes in the future, San Remo will always be waiting for him." San Remo Chairman Mr. Russell also came.

When he learned that the old man was coming, he immediately flew over on his private plane, for no other reason than to meet the old man and say a few words.

In a circle of Europe aristocrats like them, this is also a talking point worth showing off.

After all, ordinary people may not understand the development and progress of the East, and their impressions of it are still in the 1980s and 1990s, but how could they, who stand at the top of the world's wealth building, not know it?

The old man looked at Russell and Martivni and said, "A truly great eagle is willing to let his children fly outside. I am just like you. No matter what color jersey he wears in the future, he will always be a player that must be mentioned in China football history."

Hearing this, Martivni breathed a sigh of relief.

If Martivni has any worries after Italy reached the finals of European Under-21 Championship, then it is whether Lu Yang can successfully join Italy National Team in the future!

The national team and the national youth team are still different.

If Lu Yang insists, if the lion over there insists, then Lu Yang can theoretically switch to China National Football Team. Otherwise, Lu Yang may be harmed by public opinion over there.

But luckily.

After the old man spoke, it became natural for Lu Yang to play football in Italy.

This... I'm afraid this is the real purpose of the old man coming to watch the European Under-21 Championship finals in person, right?

In order to protect this football budding talent, domestic football lovers can be said to have really tried their best.

Martivni looked at Tang Yuqin, and he believed that this little girl also played an important role in it.

"Ms. Tang Yuqin, I wonder if you are willing to take charge of the next friendly cooperation project between Italian Football Federation and China football?" Martivni said, "Italian Super Cup and some Serie A teams' pre-match training, Serie A Serie B Broadcasting cooperation, youth football talent training program, etc.?"

Tang Yuqin was stunned, does this... have anything to do with her?

Can she... be a bridge between Chinese and Italian football?

"Don't worry, there will be professionals to assist you with specific matters." Martivni smiled, saying that you don't have to do anything.

At this time, Luo Cheng, who was still commentating in the China Central Television studio hall, did not know that his program partner would soon become one of the important symbols of China football.

If he knew, he... of course would bless Tang Yuqin.

People are inherently different.

Some people do things just for the sake of it.

But some people do things just to lay the foundation for the next step.

But for those who have every step in their life resume just right, without any mistakes or detours, believe me, it is definitely not because they have walked this way by themselves, but because someone has arranged this path for them from the beginning.

If Luo Cheng is a very talented and hard-working person.

Then Tang Yuqin is the kind of player who can upgrade at any time as long as he has enough experience.

There is no need to compare with such people. Social anxiety is caused by comparisons that should not belong to the same level.

In fact, Tang Yuqin is not the standout among people with the same background. There are people who are far more successful in business and politics than she is.

Tang Yuqin just chose football because he loves football.

Luo Cheng is very happy, Tang Yuqin is equally happy, Lu Yang is very happy, Sophia is also very happy.

Choosing your passion and sticking to it is a kind of happiness in itself.

Comparative happiness is not real happiness, and it is also unreliable happiness.

At present, it seems that among those who insist on doing their own things, only Moric is not so happy.

Because he has been worried that his almost three seconds incident will be widely circulated on the Internet.

Damn it!

I will never go out to vote for women again!
