After signing with AC Milan, I will be the king of football!-Chapter 722 - 0272 Warm-up Expert Higuain (Subscribe please)_3

Santana moved forward and quickly threw the ball in from the touchline.

Aguero received the ball on the right and was immediately stuck to by Miguel Torres from behind. Aguero nudged the ball forward with his right foot, quickly turned around, and with a Cruyff turn, he got past Torres.

Ivanovic rushed up quickly, but he still underestimated Aguero’s agility.

Before he could adjust his center of gravity, Aguero pulled the ball back again, successfully dribbling past the lunging Ivanovic within a small area. Immediately afterward, the ball was kicked towards the left of the penalty area by a sliding tackle from Pepe. Casillas rushed up, stopped the ball with his foot, and swung his arm for a big clearance.

Snap—

In his own half, Kevin spotted the trajectory, started from the middle, and quickly dashed towards the right wing.

Antonio Lopez once again felt the disparities of this world; he was positioned behind Kevin, but was quickly caught up and matched in pace.

Shortly after crossing the halfway line, Kevin had already completed the overtaking.

In front of the penalty area, Kevin uncharacteristically misjudged the distance. The ball was too close, so he hurriedly lifted his foot and nudged the ball forward. Rushing to the top corner of the penalty area, Kevin swung his arm and lifted his right foot.

Lopez, trailing on Kevin’s left rear side, directly kicked out at Kevin’s supporting leg.

Kevin’s right foot switched from kicking to pulling back, and he turned narrowly avoiding the tackle and after pulling the ball back into the penalty area, he moved laterally along the penalty area line.

Whether it was cutting inside from the left or the right, Kevin, with his two-footed skills, could shoot at the first opportunity.

The Atletico Madrid players knew this, and Mario Peña, who had rushed back to the edge of the area, had nearly exhausted all his strength, his legs were giving out as if he was about to kneel. Using the last bit of his energy, he lunged at Kevin who had run to the middle.

The unprepared Kevin was taken down by Peña and pressed onto the turf.

Full of energy and having followed Kevin for a counter-attack from behind all the way, Robben powered up at his feet, changed direction quickly, and made it into the penalty area, bending down to grab Peña by the collar and the hem of his shirt, flinging Peña off Kevin.

Then, like Pepe possessed, he let loose two consecutive kicks at Peña. Before his third kick could connect, Ramos squeezed him aside.

"Wow, a fight has finally broken out!"

"Peña has once again provoked a standoff between the two sides. This time he is certain to be sent off with a red card. Teammates are shielding him as he walks towards the sideline, but the Real Madrid players are relentless."

"Kevin seems alright, but this time the altercation can’t be calmed. Real Madrid’s players simply won’t let Peña leave the field."

Without any hesitation, Capello directly pushed Marcelo to the sideline to replace Kevin.

Referee Fernandez got tough this time. Apart from Peña who got a second yellow leading to a red, several Real Madrid players also received cards.

Ramos, Robben, and Guti all got sent off with red cards, and substitutes Cassano and Sneijder were also thrown out for running onto the pitch and attacking the opposing players.

Even so, the situation remained out of control.

Blocking De Jong and Torres, Ramos roared, "If you motherfuckers dare get another red card, having too many players sent off will lead directly to a loss by default. If anyone dares to cause Kevin to suffer his first defeat of the season, I swear I’ll take your lives!"

You have to say.

Ramos had more deterrent power than the main referee.

Or perhaps Kevin was more of a deterrent.

In any case, once Ramos shouted, he controlled the situation on the field.

Kevin and Marcelo high-fived before leaving the field.

At the sideline, Kevin yelled, "Let Gonzalo take the penalty!"

Gago, who wanted to take the penalty, had to step aside.

He thought that with the forward players sent off, he would take the kick. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Higuain hugged the ball and walked up to the penalty spot again.

It was now 8 players against 9, with Atletico Madrid having the numerical advantage on the field.

Higuain still felt some pressure.

But with Kevin’s confidence in him, he had to try it out.

After several adjustments to his breathing, Higuain took a run-up and kicked the right side of the ball with his right foot.

Abbiati dived to the left immediately; he got the position right and his palm even touched the ball, but the kick was so powerful, Abbiati couldn’t fend it off with one hand. After hitting his glove, the ball bounced into the left side of the net.

Kevin applauded with a smile at the sideline.

After the goal, Higuain rushed to the sideline and hugged Kevin tightly with both arms.

If it weren’t for that penalty goal, he probably would have lacked confidence for a long time.

The Meringues in the away fans’ stand applauded the solidarity of the Real Madrid players.

As Higuain turned and walked back onto the pitch, Capello turned and said, "Kevin, you head back to the dressing room to rest. It’ll be good to see how they are doing as well. You need to attend the post-match press conference."

Kevin nodded and headed towards the player tunnel.

Ramos, who had been craning his neck in the tunnel, followed Kevin back to the dressing room.

"I’m telling you, back when I fought on the streets, I could beat anyone taller than me. It was nothing unusual to fight in the neighborhood where I lived."

Upon entering, Kevin saw Cassano gesturing and telling stories.

He had already heard Cassano’s voice in the player tunnel.

"Is that so? But it looked to me like you were the one who got beaten up."

Ramos said disdainfully.

"Nonsense, how is that possible!"

Cassano shouted back, annoyed.

Ramos pointed at Cassano’s shoulder blade, and Cassano immediately went out yowling.

During the scuffle, he had been elbowed on the shoulder by Raúl García.

Seeing his teammates were all spirited, Kevin smiled and said, "Tonight, I’m hosting a party at my place to celebrate the victory and to thank you guys for standing up for me!"
