I AM the Football Star

Chapter 684 176: Champions League Semifinalists, Sanremo Music Festival (Part 2)

The Serie B season has not yet ended, but Lu Yang has already scored thirty-nine goals.

He hasn't failed to score despite the increased competitiveness of the league.

If last season he was a future star many people were interested in glancing at,

then this season, he has started making numerous top clubs ponder whether they should take a gamble on this player and spend a substantial amount of money to buy him.

To date, he hasn't even turned nineteen.

After this match, San Remo is preparing to fly to Amsterdam to face Ajax in the second leg of the Europa League quarter-finals away from home.

But before that, this year's Champions League semi-finals lineup has already been decided!

AC Milan strongly defeated Blue Army Chelsea over two legs, with Izalelt once again gaining the upper hand against Gutierrez.

Of course, this is related to Chelsea's lack of complete cohesion.

Chelsea, having been acquired by Russian tycoons, is still in the process of restructuring, and after this season ends, they are very likely to further strengthen their midfield, particularly the defensive midfield position.

Once the strengthening is complete, they will become a fully realized team next season.

They might not have achieved honors yet, but their strength should match that of top clubs.

Meanwhile, under the leadership of new coach Gudiola, Barcelona has achieved a breakthrough in the Champions League, advancing to the semi-finals!

This is the best result in the Champions League so far for the Argentine Emperor and the local Barça players.

In reality, they have already reached their full potential this season.

However, Gudiola's exacting standards for tactics have somewhat slowed their eruption progress, which to some extent has affected their combat effectiveness.

Of course, this point is difficult for the average person to notice.

But once they complete Gudiola's tactical requirements, their ceiling will be higher, and other stars will also have the potential to integrate.

In the showdown between Manchester United and Juventus, Manchester United ultimately emerged victorious.

Juventus ended with one draw and one loss over the two legs, regrettably being defeated.

But in both matches, only a single goal was scored between the two teams.

Juventus's attack faced the same issue as the Italy National Team.

Lack of frontline power!

Ancelotti didn't seem to exhibit the grandeur expected of an Italian in critical battles.

At least, not as prominently as his six-million-euro salary.

Bayern also managed to crush Paris Saint-Germain, which is still being assembled.

In the past two years, the Bundesliga has ultimately been much stronger than Ligue 1.

This match wasn't considered an upset.

Thus, from the Four Major Leagues, each has one team in the Champions League semi-finals, as if it were prearranged, completely excluding Ligue 1.

And the subsequent draw left Sotu dumbfounded!

Because the only team ranking not that high in the league, AC Milan, was indeed drawn against Barcelona.

Although the probability of drawing any team is the same, with Lu Yang present, Sotu inevitably used the word "allocated."

And according to Lu Yang's prediction, the current Barcelona will not be AC Milan's opponent.

This... no matter how you look at it, doesn't seem right!

Because AC Milan has not displayed dominant combat strength this year, whether in the league or the Champions League.

Adding last year's Champions League reversal, AC Milan is actually looked down upon by many teams and fans.

Whereas Barcelona has already secured first place in the league.

In the Champions League, they've repeatedly delivered explosive stats, like three to zero, five to one, playing joyfully.

For a time, rumors ran rampant.

"Real Madrid wants to buy Izalelt? That can't be! Izalelt is Brazilian, and we at Barcelona have a tradition of welcoming Brazilian players!"

"Why doesn't Izalelt just join us at Barça then?"

"Yeah, coming as a substitute to enhance squad depth isn't a bad idea."

"Anyone Real Madrid wants, coming to Barça, would indeed only serve as a substitute! Apart from Zidane, none of the so-called stars they've bought have any real skills!"

"Haha, Barça fans are really bold in their claims. Even if Izalelt were to leave, it wouldn't be to Barcelona!"

"Izalelt will destroy you, just you wait!"

"Even if your Argentine Emperor arrives, it's impossible to push Izalelt to the bench, too arrogant!"

"At least Real Madrid's stars are globally recognized, while your stars are self-proclaimed, can you even compare? It's laughable!"

AC Milan and Barça fans began to clash.

In comparison, there wasn't much discussion between Manchester United and Bayern supporters.

Although there were also confrontations and controversies between them, football clubs rarely develop grudges just because of some matches. More often, ordinary fans are artificially led, entering a fandom-like state.

But in recent years, fandom culture hasn't been in vogue.

After the heated discussion about the Champions League semi-finalists,

everyone was originally waiting to see the Europa League semi-finalists.

And then England's Sun Newspaper lived up to expectations, once again diverting the football world's attention.

Sun Newspaper: Breaking news! Sofia has accepted an invitation to the Sanremo Music Festival and might make a spectacular appearance with Lu Yang!

This news, once exposed, triggered widespread attention in the entertainment industry.

Because everyone knows Sofia's new movie "Gone Girl" seems to have wrapped up filming.

Her participation in the Sanremo Music Festival this time is very likely to be for promoting the movie.

The Sanremo Music Festival is indeed one of Italy's renowned musical events.
