Crazy!!!

  For FC Schalke 04 fans at this moment!

  Even more so for the hundreds of thousands of people across Gelsenkirchen!

  No adjective describes them better than "crazy"!

  The moment Su scored Schalke 04's third goal was like the detonation of a nuclear bomb.

  Amid the hysterical shouts from the stadium DJ, the entire city trembled.

  Not just the fans—even the commentators on live sports channels lost their composure!

  Duan and Wang jumped up frantically.

  Despite his aching hands, Wang gripped the desk with both hands and yanked upward desperately!

  The expansion screw even seemed to loosen slightly under the force of the excited Wang!

  In the stands!

  Magath forgot about his back injury.

  Like an ecstatic child, he lost his usual composure and dignity.

  Raising both fists high, Magath chanted Su's name wildly alongside the fans.

  Seeing Su's goal, all the Schalke 04 players rushed toward him in a frenzy.

  Neuer!

  That was his assist!

  Neuer began sprinting straight from his own goal.

  But he only made it a few steps before stopping.

  Because he saw Su—who had just scored the crucial goal—push away his teammates, who were ready to celebrate with him.

  Instead, Su dashed into Bar?a's net, grabbed the ball, turned, and sprinted back toward the center circle.

  Holding the ball in his left hand, he waved his right hand upward, urging the home fans to roar even louder!

  Him!!!

  He was the one who scored that unbelievable goal!

  And it was against Bar?a!

  Rather than celebrating, he was calling his teammates back to their positions!

  Yes!

  They were still behind. They needed another goal!

  Just one more goal, and Schalke 04 could truly work a miracle!!!!

  They could upset that invincible "Cosmos" team!

  Neuer shouted for his teammates to regroup.

  Not just Neuer—Raul also began urging his teammates to hurry back to their half.

  Courtside!

  Guardiola finally lost his stoic expression.

  He shouted to his team, pointing at Su—clearly instructing Bar?a to focus their entire defensive effort on him.

  The game resumed shortly after!

  Su’s goal seemed to inject new life into FC Schalke 04!

  The team was everywhere at once!

  Facing Bar?a’s trademark passing game, every Schalke 04 player pressed like a rabid dog!

  "Broken!"

  "Su’s goal has ignited the entire Schalke 04 squad, launching a final assault against mighty Bar?a!"

  Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

  "Xavi with the ball!"

  "Hao marking him tightly!"

  "Xavi drags the ball back, spins, and shakes off Hao!"

  "Su!"

  "Su charges in!"

  "Xavi doesn’t recklessly dribble past his opponent—instead, he slips the ball to Iniesta!"

  "Su turns and chases back!"

  "Su is unbelievably fast!"

  "Iniesta! Feints left, cuts right! Su can’t dispossess him!"

  "Raul!!!"

  "Raul sprints back from the attacking third!"

  "Slide tackle!!!"

  "The ball is won!!!"

  Schalke 04’s aggressive, physical pressing finally wrestled possession away from Bar?a!

  Unbelievable!

  Su’s insane goal has rattled even the mighty Bar?a this time.

  They never expected to face such resistance at the Veltins-Arena—especially from that madman of a Chinese player!

  Raul, having won the ball, quickly lays it off to Klaas-Jan Huntelaar!

  Huntelaar surges forward at full speed.

  Dani Alves closes in.

  This time, Huntelaar doesn’t back down!

  Facing Alves, he pivots sharply, trying to blow past him with pure pace!

  But Alves is in peak form today.

  He’s never been one to struggle against speedsters.

  Turning his body sideways, Alves sticks to Huntelaar like glue.

  Meanwhile, Busquets cuts off the angle!

  Trapped in a two-man press, a desperate Huntelaar has no choice but to slow down and look for support.

  Raul appears to the right of Klaas-Jan Huntelaar!

  Klaas-Jan Huntelaar sees this and immediately passes the ball to Raul in the center.

  Huntelaar himself quickly drops deeper to create space and draw defenders away from Raul.

  Busquets is the first to react, closing in aggressively.

  Facing Busquets!

  The moment Raul receives the ball, he nudges it slightly forward with his right foot—

  Then makes a sudden darting run!

  Busquets immediately shifts direction, attempting to cut him off.

  But Raul abruptly extends his right foot to drag the ball back!

  At the same time, as he pulls the ball back, he pivots on his right toe and flicks it left.

  His left foot follows through, pushing the ball further forward.

  "Beautiful!!!"

  "Raul is in phenomenal form today!"

  "That dazzling move completely fools Busquets!!!"

  "Raul goes for a long-range shot!"

  "Raul winds up!!!"

  "Is this a goal-bound strike???"

  After leaving Busquets in his wake—

  Raul sweeps the ball forward with his left foot, then violently swings his left leg through—

  CRACK!

  A powerful left-footed strike!

  "BEEP!"

  Just as Raul is about to unleash his shot—

  The referee's whistle pierces the air.

  Messi—having tracked back frantically from the right—slams into Raul at the exact moment he shoots!

  "Messi!"

  "A rare defensive effort from him!"

  "The referee shows a yellow card!!!"

  "Messi hardly ever gets booked for defensive fouls!"

  "This position—!"

  "Hiss... Su now has a free kick!"

  "Was Messi's decision a bit reckless???"

  Courtside!

  Guardiola grows visibly anxious seeing Messi concede a foul in such a dangerous area.

  That Chinese player is infamous for his free-kick prowess.

  Messi, realizing the risk of his foul, begins to look concerned.

  His frustration shows—clearly still affected by the earlier penalty incident.

  Taking several deep breaths, Messi finally regains his composure after these emotionally charged minutes.

  However, even more than Messi, it was Valdés - currently positioned in front of the goal - who was cursing a million times in his mind!

  You're a six-time championship-winning super goalkeeper!

  Yet you've conceded four goals to some teenage brat across two matches!

  The humiliation was already unbearable, and now this free kick in such a perfect position!

  How terrifying is Su's free kick ability? He's taken 18 free kicks in the attacking third this season!

  And scored six goals from them!

  That's a conversion rate of one-third!

  This is a frightening statistic, especially considering the highest free kick conversion rate in world football is only about 20%. This kid Su is like a madman, exceeding that benchmark by over ten percentage points!

  Even for a six-time championship-winning super goalkeeper, this moment fills him with panic!

  In Veltins-Arena, even the Bar?a fans are finally showing worried expressions!

  Those supporters who came to Gelsenkirchen expecting an easy victory now find themselves genuinely concerned for their Cosmos team!

  And they're only playing against FC Schalke 04!

  It's unbelievable that the mighty Cosmos might actually lose to such an ordinary team.

  But even more striking than Bar?a fans' anxiety...

  At this moment, the Veltins-Arena crowd has erupted as if they've already scored!

  "SU!"

  "Bang Bang Bang!!!"

  "SU!"

  "Snap!!!"

  "SU!!!"

  "Snap!!!"

  The entire Veltins-Arena - no!

  The entire city of Gelsenkirchen!

  Every fan is screaming Su's name in frenzy!

  Right now!

  The Chinese youngster they're chanting for stands before Bar?a's six-man wall, football in arms, determination etched on his face!

  29 meters from goal!

  Slightly to the right!

  But!

  This is absolutely within range for his Crescent Moon Curved Shot!!!!

  "Su!!!"

  "He's locked onto Bar?a's goal!"

  "This is FC Schalke 04's final opportunity!"

  "The match has reached the 80th minute!"

  "From our footage, we can see most Schalke players are already gasping for air!"

  "The players are hitting their physical limits after such intense defending!"

  "It's practically impossible for them to mount any more threatening attacks!"

  "Last chance!!!"

  Su takes a deep breath!

  "Beep!"

  The whistle blows!

  Su begins his run!

  One step!

  Two steps!

  ...

  Just before the ball, he plants his left foot firmly!

  Simultaneously, his whole body leans violently to the left!

  Right leg tenses!

  His right foot sweeps outward powerfully!

  First contact: the inside of his foot meets the lower edge of the ball!

  Then, as if wrapping around the ball, his foot snaps forward!

  At the exact moment the ball leaves his foot, his toes flick inward slightly!

  "BANG!!!!"

  A explosive sound!

  The ball rockets into the sky!

  Bar?a's wall leaps simultaneously with the shot!
