Name: A Thirty-Year-Old Football Veteran Takes the Field with a System
Author: Little Xingyu from Shenzhen

Synopsis

This is a passionate sports story with a female lead. It follows a veteran striker as he fights his way out of adversity and takes Europe by storm, from Ajax to Milan, with stories of the Asian Cup and the World Cup along the way. The author is a longtime football fan, and the book features vivid descriptions of tactics and match action, along with some fresh perspectives that offer readers a new experience. Overall, it is a tightly plotted, intelligent story with steadily building emotions, a focus on growth, and a commitment to realism.

Let this book pay tribute to the youth we once had!

Adjusting his footing, he took a deep breath, planted his left foot, and drew back his right leg...

Lin Yuxing unleashed a thunderous shot, and the ball rocketed forward like a cannonball. Perhaps he wanted to vent his pent-up frustration, perhaps he wanted to lift his teammates' spirits, or perhaps he was simply playing for the love of the game! In a rare move, Lin Yuxing struck the ball with the instep of his foot, putting all his power behind it.

GOAL!!!

The ball flew into the net! It was so powerful and fast that the opposing goalkeeper could only make a token attempt to save it.

Roar...

In that instant, the entire stadium erupted! The crowd burst into thunderous cheers and shouts. They chanted Lin Yuxing's name, their voices deafening as they soared into the sky.

Looking for Soccer Stories

Looking for a soccer novel, but preferably not one set in the Big Five leagues. It can be any Chinese Super League club. The protagonist should always come through at crucial moments, but shouldn't be ridiculously overpowered. One last thing: Wuhan Three Towns has disbanded.

Any Good Soccer Novels?

I don't want an invincible team with no brains! It's more interesting when the team faces setbacks. A team that's invincible all the time gets boring.

Looking for Good Soccer Novels. Don't Recommend Any Where the Protagonist Is Lu Bu

I read these stories because the national soccer team is so bad in real life, and I want to get some satisfaction from fiction. Don’t recommend stories where the protagonist changes citizenship to play for another country. If all I cared about was the World Cup, why would I need the protagonist to compete for it in a virtual world? I could just change my own citizenship.
