Chapter 777: Just A Little Bit Different
🕑 Added 2025-06-10 11:17:33 +0000 UTCBecause he knew that only through continuous improvement and challenging himself could he become a truly top player, Su Luo sprinted hard once more, weaving between Real Madrid's defensive lines. The roars and applause of the audience echoed around him.
With sharp eyes, he searched for an opening, ready to strike again.
Lukaku closely followed behind, using their unspoken chemistry to create space for him.
Suddenly, Real Madrid’s defense fell into disarray.
They failed to withstand the impact of Su Luo’s sharp offensive push, leaving a gap in the back line.
Su Luo felt his heartbeat accelerate—a mix of anticipation and nervous energy.
Receiving Lukaku’s pass, he volleyed!
The ball soared off Su Luo’s toes in a graceful arc, fast and precise, drawing a beautiful curve through the air.
Everyone held their breath as the ball flew toward the goal.
Time seemed to slow.
The Real Madrid goalkeeper gave everything in his effort to defend.
He tracked the ball flying toward the upper-right corner, stretching his body to its limit in an attempt to block this much-anticipated strike.
But at the last moment—clang!—the ball struck the goalpost hard.
The echo reverberated across the stadium, and the crowd let out a collective sigh of disappointment.
Still, they were not discouraged. They responded with warm applause and cheers, showing appreciation for Su Luo’s brilliant effort.
The commentator quickly seized the dramatic moment.
Standing on the platform, eyes shining, he exclaimed:
“Su Luo showed incredible shooting technique and exceptional body control! If that ball had been just a bit more inward, it would have been a stunning goal! Such strength is truly impressive!”
The game quickly resumed, and Su Luo silently returned to his defensive position.
He could feel the crowd’s encouragement and expectations pressing on him.
Though he was slightly disappointed by the missed opportunity, he did not let it defeat him.
Instead, he raised a clenched fist toward the stands—firm and determined.
Su Luo reminded himself to stay focused and composed.
The next chance would come, and when it did, he would strike with even greater precision and resolve.
He knew he had to believe in himself, his abilities, and his team.
As long as he didn’t give up, he would find the path to victory.
Silently, he returned to his position, still thinking about the earlier shot...
He hadn't scored, but he wasn’t discouraged.
He knew it was time to shift his attention to the rest of the match—to contribute more on both offense and defense.
His teammates, Lukaku and Javier, came up beside him.
No words were needed between them. With mutual understanding, they launched a coordinated counterattack.
Su Luo sprinted forward once again, with the two following closely behind.
The opposing defenders quickly recognized the danger and began tightening their defensive structure.
Lukaku used his strong frame to battle an opponent, creating a vital opening for Su Luo.
Then Su Luo suddenly spun, deceiving another defender and snatching the ball away.
In an instant, the field erupted into chaos.
Su Luo darted past Real Madrid’s formations, leaving defenders in his wake.
Within seconds, he had carved out enough space and time to go for goal again.
As they charged ahead, Su Luo could hear the electric energy of the stadium—cheers, shouts, applause—all for them.
The atmosphere brought pressure, but it also lit a fire in his heart.
His will to win only grew stronger.
