This forced Millwall’s number eight player to move towards Lu Yang.
Sevajos instinctively wanted to receive the ball because he felt Lu Yang should pass now, otherwise Lu Yang would be facing a brutal collision from the number eight player.
However, Lu Yang didn’t pass the ball; he began a frenzy of cycling moves, denying the opponent any chance to close in on him.
Once an opponent nears the ball handler, the player can attempt a breakthrough.
Hence, when the opponent shows signs of preparing for a breakthrough, the defensive player often keeps a bit of distance to judge the direction and avoid being passed with one step.
If the distance is opened, there’s no chance to use physical advantage.
The opponent’s right-back was therefore ready to cover; if Lu Yang broke through the number eight player, the right-back would charge at Lu Yang.
Lu Yang held off two players alone, giving Sevajos an unexpected opportunity.
Finally, the number eight player couldn’t hold back.
He couldn’t put up with Lu Yang’s arrogant dribbling.
He directly collided into Lu Yang with a foul action.
But unexpectedly, Lu Yang didn’t dodge, nor did he fly off like Sevajos when hit.
Instead, he began a physical confrontation with the number eight player.
Bang!
Lu Yang kicked at the football, passing it out, then because he exerted the effort on the ball, he was knocked over by the number eight player.
On the surface, it seemed he suffered a loss.
But in terms of the game, Lu Yang had gained an advantage.
Because the ball had already been passed out.
The referee didn’t stop the game; even though there was frequent physical contact between the two, it was reciprocal.
Only then did Sevajos realize Lu Yang’s intention.
He sprinted towards the ball, his eyes slightly reddened.
Lu Yang intentionally controlled the ball for a while longer to attract the opponent’s defense, thus easing the defensive pressure on his side.
Sevajos caught up with the ball, Millwall’s right-back was somewhat out of position and chasing back.
Finally, the right-back caught up with Sevajos.
Then Sevajos made a beautiful backheel flick, instantly passing Millwall’s right-back and unexpectedly cut inside!
Millwall’s players were completely caught off guard.
On one hand, Canyes over there only goes to the bottom line, making the inside cut vanish from their world.
On the other hand, Sevajos previously exhibited a clear fear of physical confrontation, so how could he dare to cut inside?
Who gave him the courage?
Near the penalty area, Sogel pulled back, Parrot pushed forward, and the two made a cross run.
Sogel withdrew from the left front to the right rear.
While Parrot pushed forward from the right rear to the left front.
The moment the two crossed each other could create trouble for the opposition’s center-backs.
But Millwall’s center-backs were quite solid, preventing any mistakes.
However, Sevajos had already cut inside to the left side of the outer part of the penalty area, preparing to shoot.
The center-back in Millwall’s penalty area immediately raised his foot to block Sevajos’ shot.
The angle wasn’t ideal, and the chance of Sevajos scoring with the shot was very low.
However, Sevajos didn’t shoot but pushed the ball towards the top of the penalty arc.
Meanwhile...
When Lu Yang was knocked down by Millwall’s number eight player, he didn’t entangle but charged forward.
He was sprinting all the way, this sudden insertion left Millwall’s midfield unable to block him in time.
When he reached the left side of the top of the penalty arc, a black and white ball rolled over from the left.
The position was extremely comfortable!
Lu Yang didn’t stop the ball but took a powerful shot!
Boom!
The football didn’t rise sharply, nor did it drop sharply, but directly shot into the net at ultra-fast speed.
Star Skill, Heavy Cannon perfectly triggered!
"GOAL! A powerful shot, Lu Yang’s long shot is incredibly stable!"
"Sevajos made a perfectly timed pass, finding the only opening!"
"Oh my god! Lu Yang’s recent long shot speed reached an astonishing 128 kilometers per hour, a number familiar to English fans."
"Just last season, Manchester United’s superstar Danny Best scored a heavy shot at 128 kilometers per hour to help them win the FA Cup! And at that time, he defeated none other than Millwall!"
"At this moment, Lu Yang seems possessed by Best, using the most English explosive shot to penetrate the English goal and equalize the score!"
