At the age of eighteen, Lin Tian was kicked out of the youth training of a wealthy Chinese Super League club. Lin Tian stood at a crossroads in his life. No talent, no background, just ridiculed "hard work" and a pair of worn-out Falcons football boots.
Just when he was about to give up, the "Legend of Green" system arrived - it did not provide invincibility, but only turned efforts into visible growth. Starting from CD Roda, the Spanish fourth-tier league, he will spend ten years proving that Chinese players, who are underestimated by everyone, can also reach the top of the world.
Aspen reporter Emma Rodriguez initially only regarded this Oriental boy as news material, but in the follow-up report, she witnessed every touch of the ball, every counterattack, and every goal he made with sweat. From being questioned to being recognized, from professional relationship to soul attraction, there are no miracles in this relationship, only companionship.
There is no fantasy, no shortcuts, this is a real football journey. Injuries, troughs, discrimination, struggles... Lin Tian will experience everything that a professional player goes through. But when he scored the winning goal at the Bernabeu and won the Ballon d'Or, those who had laughed at him were not even qualified to look up to him.
