After signing with AC Milan, I will be the king of football!-Chapter 498 - 0217 Borrowing Arrows with Thatched Boats (Please Subscribe)_4

Raul gave a thumbs up.

"The newspapers always say that Huang Kaiwen getting on the field squeezes out other players’ opportunities to attack."

But they don’t see that Huang Kaiwen can score from just about any chance. If such a player were Spanish, those papers would blow him up to be the greatest player in football history, instead of nitpicking.

"Dude, pass me the ball if you get a chance, I’ve scored too few goals," Cassano said, approaching Huang Kaiwen.

"Sure, if there’s a good chance I’ll definitely pass it to you," Huang Kaiwen patted Cassano on the shoulder.

Recently, Cassano had been getting more opportunities and his performance on the field had improved, but he still hadn’t scored much.

Now that Cassano was ambitious, it was normal for him to be anxious.

"Great, if I score, I’ll treat you to a night out," Cassano said with a smile.

"Let’s skip going out," Huang Kaiwen shook his head.

In today’s derby, that penalty kick made Barca fans itch with hatred.

Even with the "Golden Prison Award," Barca fans wouldn’t lay a finger on him, but it’s still unpleasant to be cursed at for no reason while out.

If it were a home game, he could have gone out to celebrate with Cassano, but not for an away game.

As the second half progressed, Barca’s disadvantage of being one man down grew increasingly evident.

Even if Eto’o, not affecting the defense as a forward player, wasn’t feeling it today, his running between the lines was still important, often drawing Real Madrid’s defenders away.

Without Eto’o, the midfielders had to push forward more to play Barca’s style of constant attacking with passes around the box, but this increased offensive involvement by midfielders inevitably weakened their defensive capabilities.

In the 64th minute, Iniesta received the ball and immediately passed it forward, but Salgado stretched out his foot and successfully intercepted it.

Iniesta chased after it to recover the ball, wrapping his arms around Salgado from behind. As Salgado fell, he passed the ball back to Ramos.

Ramos received the ball and swiftly kicked it long down the left flank.

Huang Kaiwen and Xavi grappled their way towards the ball’s landing point, jumping almost simultaneously. Neither jumped very high, but Huang Kaiwen’s height advantage allowed him to successfully head the ball to Guti in the middle.

After landing, Huang Kaiwen quickly sprinted forward; Guti’s pass was a bit too soft, and Huang Kaiwen turned with the ball, dodging Thuram’s foot.

Max charged up behind Huang Kaiwen. Huang Kaiwen raised his right foot as if to do a backheel pass, Thuram quickly closed his legs, but when Huang Kaiwen’s foot came down, it didn’t hit the ball. Instead, he nudged the ball forward and then turned with a tight control to run towards the center.

Guti and Raul, pushing forward, were both watching Huang Kaiwen, ready to coordinate with him.

Seeing Silvinho rushing up, Huang Kaiwen looked towards Guti and then rubbed the underside of the ball with his right foot.

Smack—

The Barca players quickly charged towards the center, but the next second they realized they had been deceived, as the ball flew over their heads straight to the right side of the penalty area.

Villa was a player with no weaknesses.

His ability to organize and pass was also quite exceptional; this kick flew precisely ahead of Cassano.

Puyol was positioned far forward, and by the time he turned to run back, he was already two strides behind Cassano.

Cassano stretched his leg to poke the ball into the box, and as he started to accelerate, Puyol’s right arm was already bracing in front of him.

Cassano didn’t take off on the first attempt, and as the two ran into the box, Puyol quickly slid to the ground and cleared the ball out to the sideline.

"Ah, what a wasted opportunity."

"Puyol is still impressive. Most defenders in this situation would have chosen to clear it beyond the baseline. Despite the danger, he manages not to give Real Madrid a corner kick and sends it to the sideline, truly worthy of a top defender."

Salgado threw the corner from the right sideline, and Cassano received the ball but was immediately blocked by Puyol from behind. After trying to turn around twice unsuccessfully, he suddenly backheeled the ball, sending it between Puyol’s legs.

Guti wasn’t expecting Cassano to pass the ball like this, allowing Silvinho to take the ball and clear it from the penalty area.

Max quickly passed straight to Deco. Deco took the ball past the midfield, under pressure from De Jong, flicked the ball with his left foot towards the right flank to find some space, and instantly passed to Ronaldo in the center.

Ronaldo passed the ball to Messi on the right wing and continued to run forward.

Pepe stopped at the edge of the penalty box, ready to help defend against Messi. He was afraid that Torres would be beaten. Spotting an opportunity, Messi quickly started a horizontal dribble for two steps and then sent a through pass with his left foot. Ronaldo received the ball and shot, hitting the side netting.

The referee’s whistle sounded only after Ronaldo’s shot.

At the moment Messi passed the ball, Ronaldo was in an offside position.

After taking a run-up, Casillas kicked the ball long. Huang Kaiwen looked up to find the landing spot, only to feel a pain in the back of his head as he stumbled forward.

"Foul, that’s definitely a foul!"

"Xavi’s attempt to head the ball this time seemed like he wasn’t going for the ball at all. His elbow was raised and hit Huang Kaiwen in the back of the head. Man, that was not light. Could Huang Kaiwen be injured?"

Zhang expressed his concern.

Huang Kaiwen’s career was full of misfortunes, having been hit in the throat before, and now in the back of the head. Each time, he worried that Huang Kaiwen was truly sacrificing his life for football, fulfilling Xiang Keli’s famous saying.

"Real Madrid’s team doctor has entered the field, the players from both sides have had a major confrontation, and the referee’s card issuance was very decisive this time. Xavi received a yellow card. De Jong and Guti, who went after Xavi, both received yellow cards. Cassano and Ramos couldn’t squeeze in, and this time Raul got hit again while restraining his teammates. During the last Madrid Derby, he was hit several times by Pepe. Hehe, when Real Madrid players get hot-blooded, they really don’t distinguish between friend and foe."

"Huang Kaiwen is up, he doesn’t seem to have any serious problems. There’s a lot of rumors about Huang Kaiwen in Real Madrid, saying he has caused dissatisfaction among his teammates in the locker room. From Real Madrid’s matches, it seems to be false. Whenever he is fouled, the Real Madrid players get very excited; they are afraid that a key player will miss important matches due to injury. But that he enjoys privileges, I think it’s true. Capello hands him a towel at every match during halftime, which is unprecedented in Capello’s coaching career."

"Hehe, what can I say about Huang Kaiwen? His decisiveness in matches is too strong. Sigh, with such a player in hand, a coach will definitely treat him well. Ancelotti had a special regard for Huang Kaiwen before, and how about that? Milan achieved 5 championships in 2 years with only the league not as prominent, but in all three finals, it was Huang Kaiwen’s brilliant performance that decided the championship. Although the league is not a cup competition, Huang Kaiwen’s performance in the points-scoring stage was also very important, especially since Milan were deducted points due to the Calciopoli scandal last season, they might not have won the championship without Huang Kaiwen."

"That’s right, the key issue lies here. Huang Kaiwen has a long career ahead, and even if other coaches take over his coaching in the future, they will look at Huang Kaiwen differently; this is determined by his strength on the field."

[Huang Kaiwen this time] huh.

"Fuck, Xavi did that on purpose, didn’t he?"

"It looks like it, the way he hit the back of the head, if he’s unlucky, he could even die on the field."

"Why is Huang Kaiwen always targeted by malicious fouls?"

"No brainer, normal defense can’t stop him. After being beaten and scored on too much, the losing team has to think of other ways."

"This bunch of fucks is disgusting, just play the game. If you could win against Huang Kaiwen within the rules of football, I’d even cheer for you, but always wanting to play killer football is too much!"

"Fuck, look at De Jong!"

After the game restarted, Guti dribbled the ball and was pressed hard, resulting in the ball being poked away.

Two players rushed for the ball, and it ended up at the center circle. Xavi ran up looking at the landing spot, and De Jong went in with a kick that landed on Xavi’s chest.

The kick was solid, and Xavi was left rolling on the ground, gasping for air.

Once again, players from both sides confronted each other in the midfield, with Huang Kaiwen running up to protect De Jong.

These were his good brothers; he couldn’t let them be at a disadvantage with the Barca players.

Raul, standing in front of the Barca players, tried to mediate, "He’s already got a red card, what more do you want?"

Iniesta, seeing that it was Spain’s former captain, didn’t dare to speak up.

Max didn’t care about that and pointed at De Jong, cursing, "That kick was retaliatory!"

"You fucking say it was retaliatory. If you hadn’t foul maliciously first, would he retaliate?"

Ramos asked, standing his ground.

The Barca players fell silent.

"Are you okay, Kevin?"

Capello asked from the sideline.

"I’m fine."

Huang Kaiwen shook his head.

Him choosing to use the "Immunity Card" was indeed wise.

No matter if Xavi did it intentionally or not, that hit was very harsh.

Without the "Immunity Card," at the very least, he would have had a concussion.
