Chapter 75 Beat Sun Xingmin Violently! Meet The Most Beautiful Athlete On The Surface?

Roger Schmidt is considered a top-level head coach. He excels at aggressive, high-pressure tactics that are full of passion and excitement. Even Guardiola has described his approach as "incredible."

Against Dortmund, Leverkusen managed a clean 2-0 victory. However, despite their beautiful play against Union Berlin, they struggled with their final pass and finishing, resulting in a low goal conversion rate. On the other hand, Union Berlin managed to score twice from just four shots, while Leverkusen's numerous attempts failed to threaten Fabianski.

Son Heung-min, who was highly anticipated, had a completely off game. Despite his efforts, he couldn't shake off Union Berlin's defense and often lost the ball due to impatience.

In the 62nd minute of the second half, Son Heung-min took the ball from the left. He could have crossed it into the penalty area to target Kießling, but he chose to try to break through on his own. Trippier and Richards intercepted him, quickly passing the ball to Quinin.

Quinin advanced a few steps and passed to the center. Sabitzer then played a through ball to Forsberg, who delivered it to Glarish on the left wing. Glarish, intending to set up Forsberg, noticed a gap and sent a half-high ball to the back post. The ball sped past the defenders, and just when everyone thought it would clear the penalty area, Su Luo appeared out of nowhere.

"Su Luo!!!" shouted Duan Xuan. "Flying kick in the air! Beautiful!!! The goal is scored!!!"

Duan Xuan's excitement was palpable as Su Luo executed a stunning aerial kick, reminiscent of the Bundesliga logo, to score a fantastic goal. Leverkusen's defenders were bewildered.

"Did he teleport? How was he at the penalty spot just moments ago?"

With this goal, Su Luo completed his fourth hat-trick of the season, boasting 18 goals in 7 games. Meanwhile, Son Heung-min hadn't even started his season yet.

The pre-game hype about the "Asia's No. 1 Player" debate now seemed ridiculous. Both South Korean media and netizens fell silent, with some even turning off their TVs in frustration. The once-vaunted Son Heung-min was now overshadowed by Su Luo.

After 65 minutes, Schmidt replaced the frustrated Son Heung-min with Derdiyok. Son's eagerness to succeed had disrupted the team's tactics, and Schmidt was visibly annoyed. Son's refusal to shake hands with the coach upon being substituted only added to the tension.

The "East Asian Derby" was now dominated solely by Su Luo. Chinese netizens quickly took to Twitter and South Korean forums to mock the situation.

"Is this Son Heung-min? He's not even as good as Shinji Kagawa."

"The undisputed No. 1 in Asia is Su Luo. Any objections?"

"Their performances speak for themselves!"

"What else is there to say?"

Sun's supporters were left speechless. After his substitution, the game entered garbage time. Neuhaus, keen on preserving energy and managing his young players, also subbed out Su Luo. Grealish then assisted Forsberg for another goal, sealing Union Berlin's 4-0 victory and their fourth consecutive win.

The entire Bundesliga was astonished by Union Berlin's performance. Though they were expected to be strong, a one-sided result like this was unexpected. Leverkusen had their chances but couldn't capitalize, while Union Berlin's efficiency was remarkable. Su Luo's ability to seize opportunities played a crucial role.

Post-game, Leverkusen coach Schmidt couldn't help but praise Su Luo.

"Although he's only 17, he plays with the experience of a 30-year-old striker," Schmidt remarked. "Yet, he also has the drive of a young talent. It's strange—China has such a player, why didn't they lead the team to the World Cup? Age and skill aren't the issues!"

Chinese netizens could only respond with a wry smile. Foreign coaches didn't understand the complexities of Chinese football. Su Luo's exclusion from the national team wasn't due to his age or skill but rather the politics of the sport.

Since being inexplicably expelled from the National Youth League and missing a major competition's final, Su Luo had become disillusioned with the stagnant environment. Even if he were to be called up, he would refuse. Unless the entire leadership was reformed, there was little hope for change.

After the win over Leverkusen, Su Luo just wanted to return to Berlin and relax at his favorite club, Berghain. The game had been more challenging than it appeared. His off-the-ball runs were instinctive, thanks to Inzaghi's influence, but he had begun to consciously read the game and make strategic decisions.

Physical fatigue was secondary; it was the mental exhaustion that wore him out, as if he had been solving complex math problems for hours. Despite this, Su Luo's football intelligence had grown significantly, enabling him to hold his own in top leagues and eventually aspire to become a key player for major clubs.

Feeling too exhausted to dance, Su Luo sat drinking in a booth. His teammates, including Grealish and Quinin, were surprised.

"Su, you're not hitting the dance floor? Finally want to chat up some girls?" Grealish teased.

"Need a wingman?" Quinin offered.

Su Luo playfully kicked them away. "Leave me alone. Go enjoy yourselves."

"Okay, but call me if you need backup," Grealish winked.

Grealish hit the dance floor and effortlessly charmed the crowd with his moves. Su Luo, though often seen in nightclubs, couldn't match Grealish's mastery of the dance floor.

"It's a shame you play football," Su Luo thought, watching Grealish command the dance floor.

Su Luo listened to the music and drank wine, watching his teammates' movements on the dance floor from his booth. He enjoyed the tranquility silently.

Unfortunately, Josephine had left for the Milan Prada show. She was quickly becoming one of the strongest new supermodels in Germany, and her popularity was catching up with world-renowned supermodels. The Prada show was an important event, and she wouldn't be back before Thanksgiving.

Su Luo found himself alone in his mansion of a few hundred square meters, feeling a bit lonely. As for Taylor, she had left Berlin after watching the match against Bayern. They kept in touch online but hadn't met again. Su Luo didn't expect to form any relationship with the international pop star. Maybe she saw their time together as just a fun night, not something serious. She had many ex-boyfriends and probably didn't need another one. Being her boyfriend would be troublesome, especially if she wrote a breakup song about him. Keeping a certain distance was better.

Su Luo was sitting alone in the spacious booth drinking when he caught the attention of several beautiful women nearby.

"Look over there, that young guy from the East is quite handsome, probably under 18," one of them said.

"Wait, I know him. He's the main striker for Union Berlin," another replied.

"Huh? A Bundesliga professional player?" a third exclaimed.

"Should we go over and meet him? We're all in sports," suggested the first.

"Sure, the other tables are too crowded. Let's go," agreed the second.

Su Luo noticed three slender but fit Caucasian girls with well-proportioned figures approaching him. One of them, with bright eyes and a warm smile, greeted him.

"Hi, are you Su Luo?"

"You recognize me?"

"Of course, I'm a big Mainz fan."

"And you are...?"

"There are a lot of people here tonight, and our spot isn't great. We saw you drinking alone and wondered if we could join you."

Su Luo smiled lightly. These girls were young, probably just out of high school or college. They looked like athletes, not wealthy club-goers. They probably just wanted a place to sit and drink.

Having spent a lot of time in nightclubs, Su Luo wasn't surprised by this situation. Many beauties came for a free drink, including female college students and even high school students in Berlin. Grealish and the others never refused. As professional players, spending thousands of euros a night was nothing. If they saw someone they liked, they'd take them home.

Su Luo motioned for the youngest blonde girl to sit next to him.

"Come on, my teammates are friendly. Have a seat."

"Thanks!"

The three girls sat down excitedly. Su Luo opened a bottle of wine and handed it over. They all toasted.

"Prost! Cheers!"

After drinking, they began chatting. Su Luo learned that the girls were college students and track and field athletes from the Bavarian Comprehensive Sports Club. They might represent Germany in world athletics competitions, including the Olympics. The girl next to Su Luo was one of the best.

"Wait, what's your name again?"

"Erica, Erica Schmidt," she replied with a bright smile.

The name sounded familiar to Su Luo. He recalled the 2021 Olympics in Edo, where Erica Schmidt competed in the German 4×400m relay team. She became famous for her appearance, earning titles like "the most beautiful track and field athlete" and "the sexiest athlete in the world."

"Scared?" Erica teased.

"No, let's keep drinking," Su Luo said, pushing aside his thoughts of the past.

Soon, Grealish and the others, tired from dancing, joined them. Seeing the beautiful women, they immediately perked up. Grealish raised his eyebrows at Su Luo, who ignored him and rolled the dice. They all started chatting and drinking, quickly becoming acquainted.

That night, Su Luo did not retreat into his usual solitary illusion. In the early morning, the smart electric curtains opened automatically, letting sunlight stream through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

This time, there was no hangover. Su Luo usually controlled his alcohol intake or didn't drink at all, aware of the damage alcohol could do to a professional player. He didn't want his physical condition to decline by age 30.

But despite not having a hangover, the same scene as before unfolded. He turned his head to see the blonde girl from last night sleeping peacefully beside him.

He had to admit, athletes really did have great bodies and stamina. For once, Su Luo was wide awake, feeling quite content.
