Chapter 109 Super Bowl Champion! Huaxia Captain Became The Public Enemy Of The Bundesliga?

Su Luo's passing ability had caught Guardiola's attention long ago.

The Bayern Munich coaching staff analyzed all his game videos and finally concluded that Su Luo's passing is not consistently outstanding. Most of the time, it is mediocre. Only when he is in top form does he deliver a world-class pass that surprises everyone. More often than not, Su Luo chooses to break through or cooperate with teammates in one-two passes to create a breakthrough. After all, he is the core of the team's offense and the top scorer.

Bayern Munich and other teams also develop defensive tactics around this. Defensive tactics are not something that can be changed at will. The position coordination of each defensive player requires training and continuous strengthening. So, when Lahm and Alonso saw Su Luo's breakthrough, their first reaction was to close the door to prevent him from breaking through. They didn't step forward to press him, avoiding the risk of being passed by one-on-one.

Unexpectedly, Su Luo seized the opportunity when they hesitated, delivering a penetrating assist that made Bayern's defensive tactics look like a joke!

"Look at this pass! The vision and skill are perfect!"

"No wonder there haven't been any reports of Su Luo at nightclubs this summer. It seems he was practicing his passing skills instead!" joked the commentator Saul.

Klinsmann, who once played for Bayern and supported the team, looked serious. Seeing Su Luo make such a pass worried him.

"Generally, this kind of passing requires talent and inspiration. Even Xavi might not be able to make it every time. But from Su Luo's overall performance in this game, his vision and passing have significantly improved. He must have had special training during the summer break."

"It seems Union Berlin has great ambitions. Neuhaus hopes to diversify the team's tactics and have Su Luo play a role similar to Messi's—scoring goals and creating opportunities for his teammates."

"The game against Bayern might become difficult..."

Klinsmann believed these improvements were due to Neuhaus's demands. In reality, even Neuhaus himself was puzzled.

"Has Su Luo been practicing his passing in private? How has he improved so quickly?"

"I don't know. The training sessions have been the same as before."

In Neuhaus' view, Su Luo's passing was only at a basic professional level—not bad, but not as dazzling compared to his breakthrough and shooting abilities. However, in today's game, every pass he made was purposeful and thoughtful! His passing footwork had reached a world-class level, making Union Berlin's offense much smoother. The last pass nearly brought Neuhaus to tears.

"What a work of art."

"Should we adjust our tactics?"

"No, let Su play freely and see what surprises he can bring."

After the game restarted, Bayern Munich seemed uncomfortable. Every time they conceded the ball, Union Berlin counterattacked, putting their goal at risk.

"Su Luo breaks through from the ribs and suddenly passes to Maher Reiss!"

"Beautiful! A 1-2 play between them, and Su Luo enters the penalty area!"

"Small angle...oh? Passed! Sane hits the open goal!"

"Oh my god! He missed! Su Luo's pass was too stealthy, and Sane was a half-step too late!"

"This attack was quite threatening!"

"...Again! Keita steals the ball, it's Berlin's counterattack!"

"Kimmich, passes to Su Luo!"

"Su Luo's ball...beautiful! With his back turned, he volleys to the left!"

"Sane is completely open! Very fast! He outruns Boateng and enters the penalty area!"

"Sane!! Oh no! He shoots, but Neuer saves it!"

"Why didn't he pass to Maher Reiss? It was an open goal!"

Sane was frustrated by his missed opportunity and praised Su Luo guiltily. Since their 1v1 duel, Sane had become more respectful and didn't challenge Su Luo's authority. However, his withdrawn personality meant he didn't communicate much with everyone, leading to missed opportunities.

"Sorry, Su. My bad..."

"It's okay for a striker to shoot, but you need to know where your teammates are before you take the shot," Su Luo, though only 18, advised Sane wisely.

"Don't worry, just pay more attention next time. We still have plenty of opportunities!"

Indeed, Union Berlin had many opportunities. With Su Luo becoming more flexible, Bayern hesitated to attack, fearing Union Berlin's counterattacks. In the second half, Guardiola couldn't find a way to restrict him. Everyone focused on Su Luo, leaving his teammates wide open. With Su Luo's current passing skills, he could send the ball to any dangerous position. If they didn't focus on defending Su Luo, he became the most dangerous threat himself!

Guardiola kept scratching his bald head in frustration. If he had hair, he would have pulled it out by now. The hastily arranged defensive tactics during the intermission didn't work. In the 63rd minute, Bayern conceded a goal.

"Another counterattack by Union Berlin! Su Luo and Maher Reiss cooperate brilliantly!"

"Su Luo kicks an imaginative through ball, instantly bypassing Alaba!"

"Maher Reiss times his run perfectly and breaks into the box!"

"He selflessly passes it back to Su Luo!"

"Su Luo's explosive shot from near the penalty spot pierces Neuer's goal!"

"2-1! Union Berlin takes the lead!"

This goal shattered Bayern's confidence. They seemed lax, not taking the Super Bowl seriously. Their attacks were powerful but lacked real threat. Pickford's excellent performance blocked Bayern's seven shots on target in the second half! Without scoring, Bayern's defense was constantly tested. No matter how brave Neuer was, it was difficult to save one swift strike after another!

As a result, Union Berlin scored two more goals in the 70th and 85th minutes through simple, quick counterattacks initiated by Kimmich and Keita from the backcourt, with Forsberg tandem, and Su Luo completing the final rush or pass to create a goal.

Su Luo first assisted Maher Reiss, who scored his first goal for the team. Then, at the end, Su Luo sealed the victory with a long shot!

"4-1! Can you believe it?"

"Union Berlin has beaten Bayern so badly!"

"Last season, Union Berlin was relatively passive, relying on Su Luo's exceptional individual ability to complete the reversal. Now, they seem to play effortlessly against Bayern!"

Commentator Saul was shocked, as no one could have predicted this outcome.

From a possession standpoint, Bayern had 70% of the ball but never posed a real threat. Union Berlin, with only 30% possession, hit Bayern hard, beating them decisively on the spot!

The score was finally settled at 4-1!

Union Berlin claimed a resounding victory in the German Super Cup!

"The game is over! Union Berlin continues to make great strides in the new season!"

"They've won the German Super Cup!"

"Of course, Bayern Munich shouldn't be discouraged. The Bundesliga is the real challenge!"

The next day, pictures of Su Luo leading his team to victory in the Super Cup were featured on the headlines of major social media platforms and newspapers.

"The youngest captain in history leads the team to win the Super Cup! The new season is off to a great start!"

"2 goals and 2 assists, 'Huaxia Captain' has evolved again!"

"Bayern Munich lacks fighting spirit and was completely defeated by the Chinese star!"

Su Luo, the youngest captain in the top league, demonstrated incredible personal ability, often turning the tide like a superhero. With "Captain Liberty 2" hitting theaters recently and "Avengers 2" about to be released, the media began dubbing Su Luo as the "Huaxia Captain."

Ironically, Su Luo didn't play for the China National Football Team and was unlikely to become its captain. But that's beside the point. What Su Luo showcased in this game shocked the entire Bundesliga once again!

Coaches who considered him an imaginary enemy now had to hold emergency meetings to devise new tactics!

The formidable Su Luo was already terrifying, but now he seemed to be evolving into an unstoppable force. He loomed over the Bundesliga like a titan, casting a huge shadow.

The impact of overturning Bayern 4-1 was significant. However, some Bayern fans claimed this game didn't indicate any major issues. For instance, the famous German football star Sammer wrote:

"The defeat in this Super Cup doesn't mean there's a huge gap at Bayern.

"Actually, for most of the game, Bayern were in control.

"The opponents were simply better at seizing opportunities.

"Bayern players didn't look excited or active upfront.

"This is due to the nature of the game; the Super Cup is just a big warm-up match.

"In the next league opener, I believe Bayern will go all out and be able to beat their opponents."

Sammer's remarks gained support from many Bayern fans and even some other fans.

In the first season, Berlin overturning Bayern was a joy to witness. However, if Union Berlin wants to dominate in the new season, they'll face united opposition from the Bundesliga.

Whenever a new force challenges an old one, it faces the same situation. Other established strong teams would rather have only Bayern as an enemy than see a new challenger emerge. A more intuitive example is that with Union Berlin's rise, there's one less Champions League spot available. So, other powerful Bundesliga fans are also uniting, forming a coalition against Union Berlin.

"I look forward to Bayern crushing their opponents in the Bundesliga!"

"Who takes the Super Cup seriously? Winning a trivial event means nothing."

"Bayern was just playing for fun. Did you really take it seriously?"

"It doesn't matter if they're arrogant; the opening game will bring them back to reality in the Bundesliga!"

Discussions about the new Bundesliga season intensified online. Even Union Berlin players couldn't believe the number of fans supporting Bayern.

After training that day, Quinonez grew angrier as he scrolled through his phone.

"What! What's the point of boycotting us? Obviously, Bayern is the real problem in the Bundesliga!"

He was truly upset by the fans of other teams.

Su Luo glanced at the news and finally just patted him on the shoulder.

"The louder the enemy's cries, the more frightened they are. That's a good sign!"

"For the game the day after tomorrow, let's turn up the heat and give them a real show!"

"Let them face despair!"
