Star Card System

Standing on the sidelines of Old Trafford, Xia Xing felt as if he was dreaming.

He has dreamed of becoming a star like them since he was a child, running on the green field, scoring goals, and enjoying the cheers and applause of the audience.

However, this football path is too difficult.

His father is Chinese and his mother is a kind-hearted British girl. Although Xia Xing grew up in China, he followed his mother and became a British citizen.

My father had some objections to this, but my mother insisted. Unexpectedly, this matter would become an extremely important decision in Xia Xing's life.

Xia Xing has been training at a football school in the city since he was a child, receiving Chinese football education. Becoming a football player is his biggest dream.

However, Xia Xing's parents passed away due to illness a few years ago, which completely ruined Xia Xing's football career.

The Xia family's economic conditions are average, and a large amount of expenditure is spent on football school tuition.

The death of his parents completely deprived Xia Xing of the opportunity to continue playing football.

You know, in China, you can't play football if you don't have money.

After suffering a huge blow, Xia Xing made a bold decision.

Go to England and continue to pursue your football dream!

His mother is from Manchester and there is an old house there. Xia Xing successfully flew to Manchester with his British nationality and settled in Manchester. With the help of his mother's former friends, he studied in a high school in Manchester alone.

In his spare time, he never gave up his football dream and tried to try out with many football clubs.

But his age has long passed the appropriate training period. In addition, the training in Chinese football schools is not professional enough, and the basic skills are far from those of European football teenagers.

Even though his skills are far ahead among his peers, considering the upper limit of player growth, no professional team's youth academy is willing to accept him.

In the eyes of professional European clubs, a Chinese-American who looks good but has not received professional football training and is no longer young has no room for growth or development value.

Even though he ran into obstacles everywhere, Xia Xing still did not give up. He played amateur football while going to school and looked for opportunities.

And the opportunity finally came.

A month ago, during an occasional wild ball game, he was spotted by Ferguson who happened to be passing by and invited to join the Manchester United youth academy for trial training.

Here, he received the most top-notch guidance and his horizons broadened greatly.

The closer it is to reality, the crueler it becomes. He finally understood why he had been rejected by many clubs before.

Xia Xing's experience in the Chinese football school is not worth mentioning here at all. It is simply wild and unprofessional.

It's difficult to continue to score goals now.

But even if there is only one percent chance, he will go all out and fight for it!

In this game, he was loaned to Mourinho by Sir Alex Ferguson and became a substitute player.

But instead of sitting on the bench, he kept warming up on the sidelines.

On the one hand, he is waiting for opportunities that may arise at any time, and on the other hand, he also wants to observe the playing methods of the stars more closely.

Not long after the game started, Xia Xing, who was standing on the sidelines, suddenly saw darkness and almost fell down!

[The star card system is being launched! 】

[Special reminder: This system is not a free point-adding system. The host needs to undergo more diligent training to achieve the card effect! 】

[Currently, only the "Information Platform" is available, and functions such as "Card Synthesis", "System Taskbar", and "Virtual Arena" will be gradually unlocked! 】

[You have two new tasks, please check them! 】

[Task 1: 1. Receive Zidane’s pass and complete the goal; 2. Assist Zidane to score; 3. Win Zidane’s praise. 】

[Task time: Before the end of this game, complete the 3 conditions in the task. 】

[Mission reward: Zidane card, SS level. 】

[Task 2: 1. Assist Thierry Henry; 2. Win Henry’s praise. 】

[Task time: Before the end of this game, complete the 2 conditions in the task. 】

[Mission reward: Henry Card, S level. 】

[Excuse me, host, do you accept the mission? 】

Xia Xing’s eyes lit up!

Having read many online novels, he is no stranger to the system!

Now, the system has come into reality, and I finally have the system!

The sentence in this system that excited him the most was the second sentence, "Special Reminder."

"This system is not a free point-adding system. The host needs to undergo more diligent training to achieve the card effect!"

There is also the "virtual arena" mentioned in the third sentence, Xia Xing has already guessed it.

Xia Xing is full of fighting spirit at this moment!

So much the better!

I am very confident in my football talent!

The only reason why he failed to realize his talent is because he did not receive top-level football education since he was a child!

If I had played in a place like Manchester United's youth academy since I was a child, I would have become a rising star in international football by now!

I have this confidence!

I don’t need brainless cheats, I just need God to give me a fair chance to work hard!

If you can win without any effort, then what's the point of passionate sportsmanship?

Struggling to control the excitement in his heart, Xia Xing answered the system's questions without hesitation!

"I accept the mission!"

Now, he just needs to get a chance to play!

I kept looking for him on the sidelines and finally got the chance to perform.

Xia Xing did the two show-off passes just now on purpose.

He knew that if he wanted to get a chance to play, he had to seize the opportunity to show himself.

The applause of the fans in the stadium made him feel excited and full of expectations!

"Chinese boy, come here!"

"Hmm?"

Xia Xing looked back and saw the proud Portuguese walking towards him.

"Your two passes just now were good and remarkable. You are a good seedling."

"Thank you for your compliment!"

"Now Inzaghi is injured, I am going to let you come on the bench."

"Okay coach! I will definitely implement your tactical arrangements without reservation!"

"No, no, no, you are wrong."

"Am I wrong?"

Xia Xing was stunned, and he looked at Mourinho with some confusion.

Mourinho still had a cold expression, and he pointed in the direction of the court.

"This is just an exhibition game, no one is too serious about the result of the game.

"I can see that you really want to show your strength.

"Well, I'll satisfy you.

"From now on, until the end of the game,

"Play however you want.

"Try your best to give your best performance and conquer everyone here!

"If you can conquer Moyes, you will definitely have more opportunities in the new season!

"Even if you can conquer me, maybe one day you will become a superstar under my command," who knows!

"Chinese boy, come on stage!

"Go up and play for a while!"

Looking at Mourinho again at this time, he had a slight smile on his face.

That smile was full of expectations.

"Thank you!"

Xia Xing turned and ran to the court, welcoming his first official game in his green career!

A month ago, he was just a high school student who occasionally played amateur games.

Now, he is competing with countless superstars!

Thank fate for the gift!

It was Manchester United's goal kick at this time, and De Gea made a short pass to Ferdinand in front of him.

Ferdinand passed it to Vidic, and Vidic passed it to the left.

Philip Neville received the ball and dribbled forward.

Zidane appeared in front of him.

Neville's footwork changed frequency, he planned to pass the French star.

Continuous shaking, accelerating sprint!

Zidane calmly kicked the ball and the ball was intercepted!

The counterattack of the World Stars Team started!

Although the ball was intercepted, the ball was not under Zidane's control and rolled to the left front.

Carrick in the middle was sprinting quickly to make up for the defense.

But just when he was about to touch the ball, the ball was instantly controlled!

It was Xia Xing!

He just came on the court and appeared in the right forward position of Inzaghi just now!

Before Zidane intercepted the ball, he had already begun to actively retreat and prepare for the response!

Now, he got the ball first!

Carrick didn't get the ball, he collided with his body, trying to get the ball again!

In front of the younger generation, Carrick didn't want to lose face!

However, he failed to knock away the oriental boy in front of him!

Xia Xing stood still and protected the ball!

At this moment, Giggs also assisted from the left and wanted to steal the ball together!

Sandwiched between two Manchester United players, Xia Xing tapped the ball with his feet several times in a row...

Suddenly, his right foot drew a semicircle with the ball!

The center of gravity of the left foot accelerated forward!

Accelerate the sprint!

This is a Marseille turn!

Xia Xing successfully passed Carrick and Giggs!

Wonderful passing!

Amid the admiration of the fans, it is not over yet!

Ferdinand is waiting for him in front!

Xia Xing has no chance to break into the penalty area!

But looking to the left, Henry is accelerating!

It's a good opportunity!

Pass the ball!

Everyone follows his eyes...

However, the ball did not fly to the left!

Instead, it went straight to the right side of the penalty area!

Who is there?

Zidane!

After just stealing the ball, Zidane has been running forward!

At this moment, he appears accurately on the trajectory of the ball!

Receive the ball on the penalty area line!

Calmly kick!

Shoot into the far corner of the goal!

Wonderful outside-of-the-foot shot!

De Gea jumped up desperately and made a full-scale save!

But he still couldn't stop the ball from entering the absolute dead corner!

The ball went in!

2 to 1!

The World Stars Team took the lead again!

What's more important than this goal is the wonderful process of scoring!

The stands were filled with applause and cheers!

The commentator in the live broadcast room also exclaimed in amazement!

"Wow! What did we just see!

"The young man who played fancy football moves twice on the sidelines a few minutes ago,

"Just came off the bench and created a goal opportunity!

"Wonderful Marseille turn!

"Very Zidane-like!

"Using the opponent's signature move in front of the master, this young man really has a big heart!

"And the last pass assist, this is Ronaldinho's signature move!

"Feint to the east and attack in the west!

"Highly concealed!

"Zidane's last shot was even surpassed by his passing and passing!

"This young man is amazing!"
