The God of Football Starts With Passive Skills

Chapter 560: Chapter 110: Beating Four Men! Retrograde Domain, Activate! A Great Legend

For some reason, an image of Shen Qinghe immediately surfaced in Lina Gerk’s mind.

It was the only thing that made her feel threatened.

Because Shen Qinghe was truly beautiful—so much so that even as a woman, Lina Gerk was quite envious.

Moreover, she and Wang Shuo were both from China. She was also his personal assistant, helped him with so many things, and handled all sorts of matters for him.

The two of them were in contact far too often.

But she quickly shook her head hard, forcefully casting the thought aside.

’I have to keep reminding myself not to look for trouble where there is none, not to become a loathsome, unreasonable shrew.’

"Actually, even though I’ve been busy during this time, I’ve still come back often. And he occasionally comes over to Dusseldorf to be with me."

At this, Lina Gerk took a deep breath.

"Anyway, I love him. I’ve chosen him for life, and no one is going to snatch him away from me!"

After hearing this, Lisa Ritz gently patted the back of Lina Gerk’s hand in a show of support.

Some things were best not brought up too often, even between best friends.

Besides, in a circle like the European football scene, far more outrageous things happened all the time.

Not to mention, Wang Shuo hadn’t actually done anything wrong. He was the perfect ideal man!

...

Dortmund ultimately defeated Stuttgart 2-1 at home, securing their 19th consecutive victory!

After the match, Wang Shuo quickly became a top story on all of Germany’s major news portals.

The next morning, he was the front-page headline for all the major mainstream media outlets.

Dribbling past four players, making a long-distance run, single-handedly carrying the entire team—he had forcibly defeated Stuttgart on their home turf and preserved the winning streak!

Bild gave Wang Shuo the highest possible score: a 1.

"That goal he scored at Westfalen Stadium alone makes him worthy of being the player of the week!"

Kicker Magazine opined that Wang Shuo was leading Dortmund in what was shaping up to be a legendary season.

What did that mean?

So far this season, Dortmund had racked up 19 consecutive wins!

This brought Dortmund to 57 league points, placing them first on the league table.

In second place was Heynckes’s Bayer Leverkusen.

After losing 1-4 to Dortmund in the previous round, although Bayer Leverkusen had defeated Borussia Mönchengladbach 3-1 away this round, they only had 36 points.

In other words, Dortmund’s lead had already expanded to 21 points!

Kicker Magazine believed that there was little suspense left as to who would be the champion of this season’s Bundesliga.

Given Dortmund’s current momentum, winning the title was a foregone conclusion.

The real question was, how long could Dortmund’s winning streak last?

How many rounds early would they clinch the title?

After his spectacular long-distance goal against Stuttgart, Wang Shuo’s Bundesliga goal count for the season had reached 34, bringing him ever closer to Gerd Müller’s single-season record of 40 goals.

"We have every reason to believe that this season, Wang Shuo is leading Dortmund in forging a great legacy!"

...

「Afternoon of January 29th, Volkswagen Arena.」

In the 20th round of the Bundesliga, Dortmund was away to challenge VfL Wolfsburg.

It was another match played in the snow.

After a week’s rest, Dortmund came out aggressive right from the start.

Just as the match began, Diego created a free-kick opportunity for VfL Wolfsburg in the attacking half.

But he failed to score from the free kick.

Dortmund, however, quickly launched a counterattack.

After winning the ball in midfield, Shahin and Götze executed a brilliant combination.

Götze passed the ball to Kuba on the right wing.

The Polish winger quickly advanced down the line and sent a half-high cross toward the front of the goal.

Wang Shuo raced forward at top speed and, without trapping the ball, hit a volley with his right foot, sending it into the net from point-blank range.

1-0!

VfL Wolfsburg immediately launched a counterattack.

But just in the 11th minute, Dortmund won the ball in midfield again and launched another counterattack.

Shahin made a diagonal pass, once again sending the ball to the right side of the attacking half.

It was Kuba again, who successfully beat the offside trap and charged along the inside of the right penalty box line all the way to the byline.

As Wang Shuo rushed toward the penalty spot, he suddenly slowed down and shouted to Kuba.

Kuba cut the ball back, and Wang Shuo made an easy tap-in.

The ball shot between VfL Wolfsburg’s two center-backs and into the Wolfsburg goal.

2-0!

A brace!

Dortmund was off to a dream start!

This allowed Dortmund to play with more patience in the snowy conditions.

After play resumed in the second half, in the 71st minute, Dortmund seized a corner kick opportunity from the right side of the attacking half. Subotic headed the ball across, and Hummels nodded it in at the far post.

3-0!

But the most brilliant moment came in the 79th minute.

After Hummels made a tackle in front of his own goal, he launched a long ball directly to the center circle in their own half.

With his back to the direction of the attack and holding off VfL Wolfsburg’s center-back Friedrich, Wang Shuo trapped the ball with one touch and laid it off for the rapidly advancing Lewandowski, who had come on as a substitute for Kuba. Wang Shuo then immediately turned and ran.

Lewandowski took a powerful touch to knock the ball forward and accelerated after it.

The Polish striker dribbled all the way into VfL Wolfsburg’s 30-meter zone.

At that moment, the two Dortmund strikers were up against four defenders.

But in this fast counterattack, from the right side outside the Arc Top District, Lewandowski curled a diagonal pass, sending the ball directly in front of the left corner of the six-yard box.
