Chapter 1907: Chapter 504: Ingenious Strategies Are Born Only in Dire Straits

"Sergio, tell us why you kicked your national teammate today?"

The Canale5 reporter squeezed to the front and asked.

Seeing the logo on the microphone, Ramos said, "There’s no particular reason. Kevin is the Da Vinci of the football world. As a normal person, I hope to see more masterpieces. Anyone who wants to destroy a masterpiece is my enemy. I have no idea what national teammate you’re talking about."

"Are you suggesting that Kevin is leading a football renaissance?"

The reporter asked.

"A renaissance? Who else but Kevin?"

Ramos retorted, "Go ask Albertini or Pirlo, do they have the qualifications to compare with Kevin? The past few years have proven that Zidane plus Pavon cannot succeed because Zidane isn’t strong enough. Kevin doesn’t care who’s around him, whether it’s Pavon, Palacio, or Papastathopoulos."

"By the way, Papastathopoulos hasn’t had many opportunities lately; is he being sidelined?"

The reporter asked.

"There’s no such possibility in Milan; his Italian is too poor. The coach had him play with the reserves to learn the language."

Ramos had lost interest in continuing to answer questions.

But they found another good candidate.

"Toni, tell us about today’s match."

The reporter asked.

Kroos smiled and said, "We won."

"And then?"

The German reporter asked impatiently.

This wasn’t Kroos’s usual style.

"Do you think Milan defeating Barça needs any special explanation?"

Kroos said with a frown, "Their rival is Real Madrid, but they are not in the same class as us."

Here it comes, finally!

The nearby reporters were ecstatic.

After waiting so long, Kroos finally spoke.

"So how do you categorize the teams in the football world?"

A British reporter asked eagerly.

"Milan is in a class of its own, then Manchester United, Inter Milan, Barça, and Bayern in another, the rest in a third class."

Kroos said without hesitation.

"Didn’t you just say Real Madrid competes with Barça? Why aren’t they in the same class?"

The reporter pressed.

"Idiot, a team that can’t even win the Europa League wants me to group them? They’ve performed well this season. I’ve heard Kevin say Mr. Mourinho is a capable person, so Real Madrid will move up a class in the future."

Kroos said.

"What about Juventus?"

An Italian reporter asked.

"You’re asking about the eighth-place in the Italian league, how do you expect me to answer?"

Kroos said irritably.

He turned and left the interview area.

But the reporters were still satisfied with his comments.

Post-match press conference.

Huang Kaiwen, having completed a urine test, sat next to Guardiola.

Enrico was beside Puyol.

Before the reporters could speak, Enrico said directly, "I take a large part of the responsibility for losing today’s match. I don’t want to say anything else; the players tried their best, but AC Milan is a better team."

Guardiola immediately added, "I know Barça well, so it helped me prepare for the match."

"Pep, do you know why Barça couldn’t win before?"

A reporter asked.

Guardiola looked down at the reporter.

The reporter straightened up and introduced himself, "Luis Garin from Avant-Garde Newspaper."

Guardiola’s heart skipped a beat.

This newspaper has the largest circulation in Catalonia but is published in Spanish.

The newspaper’s views are somewhat radical.

After some thought, Guardiola said, "Many reasons, but Kevin is the biggest one among them."

"So Kevin, do you think the victory is thanks to you?"

Garin turned and asked.

"Do you think you standing here is thanks to yourself?"

Huang Kaiwen retorted irritably.

He has never had a good impression of Avant-Garde Newspaper, as they especially like interfering in other countries’ internal affairs.

"Kevin, talk about today’s match. Once again, Milan players were involved in a brawl. Was it caused by Barça players’ fouls?"

"AS Newspaper" reporter Mahesus Garcia winked at Huang Kaiwen and asked.

This was an old friend of Huang Kaiwen’s.

Huang Kaiwen tilted his head and said, "I’ve said this over and over again: in this world, there is cause and effect. You’re hungry, so you go to a restaurant; you’re bored, so you go fishing by the river; you want to get married, so you go out and meet girls, right? If they didn’t foul, my teammates wouldn’t have been so agitated.

You all know Sergio isn’t a bad person; he already has a master’s degree, which is quite rare in the football world. As a high-caliber talent, he never hits people casually. As for Zlatan, many people like him. Although he has a bad temper, he’s not a bad person. He even supports some kids who can’t afford school through my foundation long-term. Compared to some people, they are kinder. You can’t just put a label on them for fighting on the field, just like you can’t discriminate against someone based on their ethnicity. Am I right?"

"Yes, which is why the fouls by Barcelona should be punished more severely."

Garcia said.

"Bullshit!"

Puyol slammed the table and said, "My teammate’s ribs are broken, and he should be punished more severely? What are you thinking?"

"But he’s Busquets. Who knows if it’s real or not?"

Garcia countered.

Busquets’s acting skills are world-renowned.

Puyol, extremely angry, stood up and pointed at Garcia, saying, "Anyway, I hope to see a fair result."
