Chapter 1049 The Best Su Luo

Su Luo stood in the center of the square, gazing up at the massive display screen on a nearby high-rise. It was replaying highlights from today’s match.

He could feel the weight of countless eyes on him. There was admiration in some, but also mockery — a faint air of schadenfreude that made his chest tighten.

Still, he understood — this was both a challenge and a test of his leadership.

“Hey, look at that!”

A young fan suddenly shouted, “That Su Luo made another stupid mistake! He’s not that good anymore!”

Laughter rippled through the crowd, echoing through the square.

A sharp pain flickered in Su Luo’s heart, but he quickly steadied himself.

Robert and Hagen immediately noticed Su Luo’s restraint — how he refused to react impulsively despite the sting of ridicule. They stood firmly beside him, quietly clapping in support.

Their gesture caught the attention of nearby spectators, and gradually, the mood began to shift. Some people started giving Su Luo approving and sympathetic looks.

Feeling the genuine support from his teammates — and even drawing strength from the mixed emotions around him — Su Luo straightened his back and turned to face the crowd.

“It’s okay!” Su Luo said loudly, his voice carrying through the square. “Everyone makes mistakes — I’m no exception. But we can’t give up because of them. I believe in our team’s strength, and we’ll only grow stronger from here!”

Robert and Hagen joined him at the center of the square, applauding.

Moved by his confidence, the surrounding fans began to clap and cheer as well. The mood in the square became charged with positive energy.

Su Luo raised his voice again. “The most important thing is to believe in ourselves and in the team! We’ve already proven we can defeat strong opponents — and I promise you, in the future, we’ll face even greater challenges… and we’ll win!”

Robert and Hagen exchanged proud glances. They knew then that Su Luo was no longer just a rising star — he had become a true leader.

“We’ll always be by your side, supporting you!” Robert said, patting Su Luo on the shoulder.

Hagen nodded with a smile. “That’s right! No matter what happens, we’ll fight with you. Believe me, Su Luo — you’re the best!”

Su Luo felt their sincerity and encouragement deeply.

He knew that within this Dortmund team, a strong bond and unspoken understanding had already formed. With that unity, they could create miracles — and dominate the world of football.

Later, Su Luo’s crucial follow-up goal reignited the fans’ passion. The stadium erupted in cheers, his name echoing through the stands.

Moments ago, many had been disappointed by Dortmund’s struggles — but that goal transformed their despair into pure exhilaration.

However, just as the crowd was basking in joy, controversy began to stir.

Some voices accused Su Luo of stealing a goal that should have belonged to Robert.

The accusations made Su Luo uneasy. He glanced back at Robert and saw the faint flicker of frustration and disappointment in his eyes.

Up in the stands, Emily watched nervously. She knew Robert had been eager to score, and now, being overshadowed might wound his pride.

She could sense the potential tension brewing within the team — something that could threaten their hard-earned unity.

Su Luo felt the cheers ringing around him, but his heart wasn’t light. He understood — a real team wasn’t just about winning. It was about trust, understanding, and standing together even when emotions ran high.

Meanwhile, Hagen stood silently off to the side, observing it all, his expression thoughtful.
