Chapter 29 Must Score Buffs Are Full! I Want To Kill!

When Su Luo won his second star, he thought, "Can I fuse the abilities of two players in a possessed state? Combining Haaland's physical strength with Ronaldo's technique?"

It's not that Ronaldo couldn't handle physical confrontations; at his peak, he often advanced while carrying two or three defenders. But in terms of pure physical strength, Haaland has the edge. After all, Ronaldo has had his share of injuries, and getting hurt in a possessed state would be very uncomfortable.

Combining the two could create a powerful 1+1>2 effect. However, after several attempts, Su Luo found it difficult to fully integrate their abilities. He could only switch between stars during the possession time.

So, he first used Haaland's strength to resist the opponent's collisions, then quickly switched to Ronaldo's technique and speed to complete the pass and score the goal. This strategy seemed effective, as Su Luo completely dismantled Cologne's defense!

Cologne's lineup could hold its own against lower-tier Bundesliga teams. They even defeated mid-table Mainz in the recent second round of the cup. If Su Luo could easily break through Cologne's defense, it meant...

"Uwe, I think Su Luo has the potential to establish himself in the Bundesliga, or even among the giants. We might not be able to keep him," Hofstadter remarked.

Neuhaus smiled, "We're still in the middle of the second division. The Bundesliga is a long way off. Why worry now?"

"Yeah, let's win this game first and think about the rest later."

On the other side, Cologne coach Storger couldn't sit still. He made two substitutions at the 75-minute mark, bringing on an offensive winger to replace a defensive one, and forward Thomas Poldi replaced Rahman.

The 30-year-old Rahman had initially had the upper hand against Su Luo, but Su Luo quickly turned the tables, making Rahman look like a mere spectator for the next hour. Rahman couldn't match Su Luo in technique, strength, or speed.

Storger replaced him with the 24-year-old single midfielder Adam to guard Su Luo, while the others focused on attacking to equalize the score.

Cologne, cornered by Su Luo who had scored twice, stepped up their offensive, displaying terrifying fighting power. They bombarded Union Berlin's goal with relentless attacks.

In the 83rd minute, Union Berlin couldn't withstand the pressure, and Cologne scored! They took advantage of a corner kick, with the new striker unmarked, heading the ball into the net!

"Ooooh! Thomas Poldi!! Clean header!"

"Cologne used their strong home advantage to launch a fierce attack, which eventually led to Union Berlin conceding a goal!"

"The score is tied at 2:2!"

Cologne's home fans erupted in excitement. The giant goat mascot was brought out again, its sharp horns seemingly piercing Union Berlin's net.

Union Berlin's players were demoralized. Despite their hard work, Cologne's midfield was too strong, making it difficult to gain an advantage. Captain Matuschka tried to rally his teammates.

"It's just a tie. We're still in an away game, and it's our advantage! Cheer up and defend! Don't let them score again!"

However, pure defense wasn't enough. They needed a threatening offense. Coach Neuhaus replaced striker Trod with the strong defensive midfielder Barış Özbek to fortify the midfield. He also subbed out the exhausted Silvio for the 22-year-old winger Christopher Quinen, and due to a previous muscle strain, made a final substitution.

Union Berlin had no more substitutions left!

"Can Su hold out?" Hofstadter worried about Su Luo's stamina.

"Let's see his potential," Neuhaus replied thoughtfully.

...

Su Luo was exhausted. For the first 80 minutes, he had constantly battled against the opponent's midfielders and defenders, running back and forth, creating space through hard work. This game was the most tiring for Su Luo since his debut, even more than the semi-finals of the World Youth Championship.

At this moment, Su Luo wished he could collapse on the green grass, relying solely on his strong willpower to stay upright. Even with the 10-minute experience card used sparingly, it was already depleted. Everything now depended on him.

"By the way, there's also the must-goal buff. How many times has it been stacked?" he wondered, but dismissed the thought. Every time his mind trembled, his body and mind united, signaling that the next shot would be a goal.

With injury time included, there were 10 minutes left. Cologne continued to attack fiercely. Union Berlin's defensive midfielder temporarily stabilized the backline, but everyone was exhausted, making it difficult to support Su Luo. Even he struggled against the opposing defenders' double-teams.

As the game time ticked away, Su Luo tried to conserve energy by walking, waiting for the right moment to strike.

During a dead ball, Su Luo approached Quinen, who had come off the bench. "Christopher, if there's space on the wing later, charge down it and cross the ball. Leave the rest to me."

"But... alright, I'll try," Quinen replied. His primary task was to use his energy to defend Cologne's side attacks, but seeing Su Luo's confidence, the young winger couldn't help but want to try. After all, an assist bonus was 1,500 Euros, enough for the latest iPhone or several PS4s. Motivated by money, Quinen was driven.

Finally, in the 86th minute, he saw his chance!
