I Am Scouted by Real Madrid-Chapter 414 - 58: Heroic Moment: Golden Boot

"It looks like Real Madrid is going to lose this match."

"No way, how does Chen dare to be the captain of Real Madrid? I think Cristiano Ronaldo is more suitable!"

"I believe it won’t be long before everyone realizes that Chen is just an ordinary player!"

Real Madrid got a free kick opportunity.

Cristiano Ronaldo stood firmly in front of the ball!

This match for Real Madrid was terrible. They gave the opponent two excellent chances in the first three minutes, and within less than ten minutes, the opponent broke through their goal.

Earlier, the Madrid media were still promoting the glorious record of Real Madrid creating a streak of 12 matches without conceding a goal this season, a feat achieved only four times in Real Madrid’s history.

The most recent such performance was 17 years ago, but this so-called best defense, praised by the media, was broken by the opponent in this match in less than ten minutes.

"C. Ronaldo is standing in front of the ball!"

"He can choose to shoot directly from this position!"

"This season, Real Madrid is one of the teams with the fewest goals conceded in the league."

"In fact, they rarely concede a goal within 30 minutes, or even in the first half."

"But this time at San Mames Stadium, their performance didn’t live up to their data."

"Of course, what happened last night also affected them to some extent."

In the stands, Athletic Bilbao fans were using all sorts of words to disturb C. Ronaldo, who took a deep breath and slowly backed away, as if measuring the ground.

The camera focused on Cristiano Ronaldo, and everyone thought he would shoot directly.

Athletic Bilbao’s goalkeeper, Iraizoz, loudly called out his teammates’ names, asking them to line up the wall properly. His command ability is undeniable as he’s the top-ranked Door God in saves.

"He’s measuring the ground step by step!"

"His gaze is firm!"

"Approaching, striking!"

C. Ronaldo’s run-up had everyone’s heartstrings on edge; the wall jumped high, yet they didn’t see the ball flying towards them. Instead, it was a cross passed to the side, to Chen Zhong.

The free kick was taken, but Cristiano Ronaldo chose not to shoot, passing the ball out instead!

Caparros had studied Real Madrid’s tactics, and he thought he understood C. Ronaldo to an extent. But he never imagined C. Ronaldo would pass the ball within his scoring range!

Was it because he felt out of form today?

What a joke!

He’s Cristiano Ronaldo! 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

So it’s...

He trusts Chen Zhong?

On the field, Athletic Bilbao players, following their tactical deployment, also realized something was wrong. At that moment, their once orderly defense appeared momentarily disordered.

Just as the nearest Athletic Bilbao player was waiting to tackle the ball when Chen Zhong would receive it!

Chen Zhong had no intention to stop the ball at all. An excellent player, when he charges forward, is already prepared to shoot!

In his mind, he had already mapped the ball’s path. He strode forward and struck the ball hard!

"Boom!"

Shooting power!

Long shot value!

Arc!

Chen Zhong was no longer what he once was. His ball quickly ascended, then plummeted rapidly! The arc in the air made it difficult for anyone to judge accurately.

With an explosive sound, the ball shot like a meteor towards the goal!

At that moment, in front of Athletic Bilbao’s goal, the top-ranked Door God Iraizoz sensed the danger. He quickly adjusted his balance, knowing what he had to do, but the erratic trajectory caused his balance to sway back and forth.

Thump thump thump thump...

His heart pounded violently in his chest as Iraizoz cheered himself on in his mind. He made the final judgment, slightly bending his legs, but the ball’s strange arc in the air threw him off.

"Beep beep beep~"

The referee blew the whistle, pointing to the center circle, signaling the goal was valid.

Real Madrid fans in the stands raised their arms in cheers, while Athletic Bilbao fans booed and looked incredulous!

"GGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLL!"

"It’s a goal!"

"The 20th league goal!"

"This is his 20th league goal for Real Madrid this season!"

"As a midfielder, his scoring stats are terrifying, even far surpassing Messi and Villa, who are in second and third place."

"Until this round, Messi scored 16 goals for Barcelona, and Villa scored 15 goals for Valencia."

"In terms of shooting attempts, Messi has made 51 attempts, ranking 7th in the league, while Villa has made 69 attempts, ranking 1st in the league."

"Chen Zhong, on the other hand, has made 65 attempts, ranking 2nd in the league for shooting attempts."

"He’s now the top scorer in the Champions League, the league, and the King’s Cup!"

"He’s also the first Asian to score 20 league goals in La Liga!"

"In years to come, others might also score 20 goals."

"But he has already left his mark at this point in time, in this era."

"Whenever people look back at the trajectory of Asian football in the 21st century, or world football, they will inevitably see one name."
