After signing with AC Milan, I will be the king of football!-Chapter 825 - 0295 High-Quality Human Team (Please Subscribe)_2

Pepe quickly fell to the ground and stretched his leg, blocking the ball.

"Hey hey, Pepe did it on purpose this time, leaving an opening for Messi, implying that he should pass. Messi saw the chance and indeed passed it. With Messi’s ability, he could totally take it himself, maybe because he failed to score twice from small angles on the right side in the first half, so he wanted to try passing to his teammates."

"Right, but Pepe’s defense this time is also dangerous. If Messi passes and Pepe fails to intercept, the entire right side will only have Ramos and De Jong facing three Barca players."

Pepe kicked the ball to Gago, who returned to the front of the penalty area.

Gago turned around and bumped into Toure, the ball left his control range.

De Jong rushed forward and tapped the ball with his right foot, Gago caught it, turned and then passed to Marcelo.

Marcelo quickly advanced with the ball along the left sideline.

Past the midfield line, he quickly passed the ball horizontally to Guti and continued to run forward.

Huang Kaiwen and Raul charged forward in the middle, attracting Barca’s defensive attention successfully.

Pop—

Guti used his left foot to scoop the ball underneath, sending an overhead pass.

Zambrotta caught sight of this ball in his peripheral vision, feeling delighted, he quickly rushed to the sideline, leaving Huang Kaiwen to Max.

Marcelo’s speed was good, but still a bit slower than the ball.

The ball bounced a few meters forward on the left side, Marcelo accelerated to catch up with the ball, quickly swinging his left foot.

Boom—

Zambrotta just reached outside the penalty area, the ball already quickly rolled diagonally past him, too close for him to even extend his foot.

Huang Kaiwen quickly rushed into the penalty area from the outside.

Max, Puyol, and Edmilson who had returned to the penalty area collectively blocked the middle.

Raul ran too far forward, already in an offside position, so no need to bother.

Seeing Huang Kaiwen lift his foot, Puyol finally revealed a smile.

No matter how many Ballon d’Ors you’ve won, it’s impossible to curve the ball past three people from this close.

But in the next second.

Puyol’s smile froze on his face.

Huang Kaiwen’s right foot swung and missed, the ball rolled past under his foot.

De Jong followed up, rushing into the right side of the big penalty area, showing his outer foot and pushed the ball.

Boom—

Valdes quickly pounced to the right post, but the ball flew diagonally to the left side of the goal.

He even misjudged the direction!

The ball went into the net without any obstruction.

The first counterattack in the second half, ten-man Real Madrid rewrote the score again.

"Kevin!!!"

"What is deterrence? This is deterrence!"

"As long as Kevin appears in the penalty area, he is the opponent’s primary defensive target."

"Although Kevin could easily take on three people’s heads and score a lob, he still chose to give his teammates more opportunities. His actions explained why almost no teammates spoke ill of him. The coach’s special treatment is due to his skills, but his teammates’ support comes from his charisma."

"Even after transferring away from Milan for nearly two years, Milan players still cannot avoid talking about Kevin in interviews."

"For a long time, there have been rumors about cliques like the Brazilian gang, South American gang, and native gang in Real Madrid’s locker room, and often conflicts between players would make headlines. But since Kevin transferred to Real Madrid, such news almost disappeared. Real Madrid’s last discordant voice also vanished completely after Van Nistelrooy transferred out."

"Often newspapers and pundits criticize Real Madrid as a violent team in the media, but they don’t see the deeper layers beneath the surface. Nowadays, Real Madrid is a united team. Even Capello, who often clashed with players, hasn’t made the headlines for conflicts since he’s been coaching."

"All of this is obviously thanks to Kevin."

"Raul wears just the captain’s armband, whereas Kevin has an invisible armband on his arm."

Huang Kaiwen turned around and hugged De Jong and said, "Nice shot!"

De Jong smiled and said, "Mainly because of your good cover."

This time he had no defending players around him and no one blocking in front.

As long as he suppressed it, it was a good shot.

Huang Kaiwen and Raul completely attracted Barca’s defense, allowing him to follow up and make the shot.

The excited Galbiati looked sideways.

Capello stood with his hands behind his back.

Standing on the sidelines.

The unbuttoned hem of his suit was blown by the wind, underneath the blue glasses the corner of his mouth slightly raised.

His face didn’t show too much emotional fluctuation.

Galbiati quickly restrained his smile, crossed his arms, and stood behind Capello.

Only the third goal, he really shouldn’t be too excited.

It seems that he should wait a few more years to be the head coach.

The Barca players who just got their spirits up, one by one akimbo, looked back.

Conceding another goal so soon after the start of the second half is a big blow.

Henry quietly walked back.

Watching Real Madrid players excitedly return to midfield, he suddenly remembered Wenger’s words.

In Barcelona, it seems they are really striving for second place.

This season, they are even not second. Villarreal is leading them by 7 points, if they lose this match, even theoretically they have no chance to be second.

Atletico Madrid and Sevilla are only 4 points behind Barca.

If they lose this match, and those two teams win their rounds, the advantage would be left to just one point.

If they don’t play well, they might not even qualify for the Champions League next season!

...

Barcelona restarted the match.

Messi’s breakthrough on the right side remained stable.

Gago was passed with one face-off, Marcelo and De Jong rushed together to the right side.

Messi, ball at feet, turned around trying to pass back.
