Talking about the rising stars of soccer, we have to mention the talented 18-year-old striker Liu Chengyu. He is not only regarded as the future star of the Shenhua team because of his amazing skills and performance, but also plays a key role in the National Youth Football Team. Despite his young age, Liu's technical style is unique. His incredible dribbling skills and sharp shooting have been the killer feature of his U21 League average of 5.3 shots per game and 30% goal percentage, making him stand out among his peers and become an indispensable attacking weapon for Shenhua's U21 youth team.
In terms of ball control and dribbling, Liu Chengyu also showed remarkable flexibility and precision. He can quickly turn around in a small space and use his delicate footwork to get rid of his opponents, opening up gaps for his team's offense. This ability to create threats from the side not only allows him to penetrate into the opponent's penalty area, but also creates countless scoring opportunities for the team. As for shooting, Liu Chengyu has become a nightmare for the opponents with his strong shooting power and precise angle, which makes the opposing goalkeepers unable to defend.
Liu Chengyu's individual ability is unique in the Shenhua U21 team, and has become more and more important in the national youth team. He has repeatedly shown outstanding talent in international matches, especially in the Four Nations Tournament against South Korea, where he became a star, helping the national youth team to a 2:0 win in two matches.
However, why is such a promising starlet unappreciated in Shenhua's first team? Coach Slutsky seems to have turned a blind eye to his talent, making him an invisible man in the team. In Europe's top five leagues, many of his peers have been able to play on their own, but we are watching such a good seed being buried, sitting on the bench and silently suffering the audience's sigh of relief.
