No matter how excited the Italian fans are, the match is not over yet.
There are still ten minutes left.
For the next ten minutes, England fought desperately.
They still had no reservations.
But at this moment, they discovered Lu Yang’s dominance.
"Lu Yang’s sliding tackle! Beautifully disrupted Mike Loring’s ball control!"
"Block! Mancini’s shot bounced off Lu Yang’s body out to the sideline."
"Lu Yang clears the ball with a long kick!"
"Intercept, then brought down, Lu Yang secured a set-piece in the backfield."
"Oh! Key interception! If it weren’t for Lu Yang’s foot destroying it, Walter would have been one-on-one with the keeper!"
"Jeland’s long shot, Lu Yang stretches his foot to disrupt it!"
"Redkrap tries to break through, but Lu Yang swoops in to steal the ball!"
"Lu Yang, everywhere on the field! His energy seems endless! His form is excellent! It’s like he just came onto the field, never tiring!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have to tell you an exaggerated statistic, Lu Yang’s running distance in this match has exceeded sixteen kilometers! That’s four kilometers more than the second-highest runner on the field!"
"The Italy Team is practically up an extra man, they are simply a Copper Wall and Iron Wall! Some were unhappy with Neville’s yellow card, thinking it should have been red, but now it seems, it doesn’t matter what card Neville gets. Because as long as Lu Yang is on the field, Italy is equivalent to having one more man than England!"
"Mancini, Mancini receives the ball, this is a great counterattack opportunity!"
In the 119th minute of the full match, Mancini launches a high-speed counterattack.
The ball is ultimately kicked out of bounds by Chiavich.
England wins a corner kick.

Score one, then a swift kickoff for another.
Anything is possible, right?
Bang!

The ball falls in the penalty area, chaos ensues.
Suddenly, Rashim pokes the ball into the Italian goal.
4-5!
England has miraculously pulled one back!
Does England still have a chance?
England’s players crazily rush into the goal.
They don’t want to lose.
They cannot let the match end like this.
Of course, the Italian players try their best to stop it, almost sparking another clash.
The main referee quickly controls the situation.
The Italy Team kicks off.
Morici passes back, English players muster up their last bits of energy to charge at the ball.
Bang bang bang!
The ball is passed in succession, with Lu Yang around, Italy never lacks a passing point.
After Italy’s twelfth consecutive pass.
Three whistles blow.
England’s players instantly collapse, falling on the green field, covering their faces in tears.
They lost.
They were sent home by Italy.
They were ranked in the top five on FIFA’s standings but were sent home by a team ranked outside the top twenty!
Watching the blue jerseys rush onto the field to celebrate, the Englishmen are incredibly envious.
Italy, has entered the semifinals?
Have they really, revived?
...
"Miracle comeback against England! This Italy is creating a miracle!"
"European Cup, San Remo miracle arrives!"
"Wolf King fully revived! Perrotta’s hat trick assists Italy in overturning the match!"
"Two passes, two assists! Once again awarded Man of the Match, young Lu Yang leads Italy to glory!"
"Continuous outbreak! Veterans never die, nor do they fade!"
"Anyone can be king! Everyone underestimated this Italy!"
"Italy’s consecutive hat tricks! Lu Yang, Perrotta, who’s next?"
"Another point giveaway! This young player is extraordinary!"
"Nine goals, five assists! Dominating both the European Cup goal and assist charts by the same person!"
"Young player outshining Robben and Zidane! After seeing his resume, you’ll realize it’s all justified!"
"If not for giving away points, his goal count would have doubled! He’s Italy’s biggest secret weapon!"
Stumbling into the semifinals, Italy causes a stir in the European Cup.
The team they eliminated had been highly favored by many to win the championship: the all-star England!
Many expressed disbelief at this.
Even the usually composed Zidane was shocked by Italy’s performance: "The most terrifying thing about this Italy is that any player can step up and take over the game. I don’t know who’s next, but I know there will be a next."
"This team isn’t just fighting for honor, they’re fighting for their dignity!"
"In recent years, due to factors like league competitiveness, age, and viewership, the strength of Serie A stars has been severely underestimated. I’ve played in Serie A, I know how strong these stars are."
"Now, they are all stepping up, because this is likely their last European Cup."
Robben: "I admit I’m a bit desperate when it comes to scoring goals, because Lu Yang is too prolific. And you know, he’s facing top teams like Portugal, England, and France!"
"Of course, if we meet again later, no matter how they perform, we will unapologetically take the victory."
The defeated England players also accepted interviews after calming down.
Jelando: "We’re feeling desperate, you can’t simultaneously deal with the world’s best central forward and still defend against the incredible Lu Yang! Plus, these two aren’t the only ones in their team."
