After signing with AC Milan, I will be the king of football!
Chapter 1921 - 507: Love Song 1999
Sure, here’s the translation:
"Ahhhhhhh!!!"
"Kevin!!!"
"Kevin Goal!!!"
"GoalGoalGoal!"
"Wembley, Wembley, we are the Red and Black Army on our way to Wembley... After adapting the famous Manchester United team song, it has become popular throughout Italy, on the Apennine Peninsula, even the dogs know the final teams are Milan and another team."
"In this world, in this year, only Milan possesses two Ballon d’Or Winners in decent form. Even though Kaka and Kevin are not at their peak, we see the result, their play against Real Madrid is no different from Lyon’s play against Real Madrid."
"Mourinho’s super defense was directly dismantled under the impact of Kaka and Kevin, the Frenchman might find this scene very familiar. Only back then Dunkirk was luring the enemy, while Kevin directly broke through Real Madrid’s defense."
"Any extra action in the face of absolute strength is just illusory and futile. Only by recognizing your position and striving for your goal tirelessly, tirelessly, tirelessly, will you realize that actually, being runners-up is already the highest honor in football."
"UEFA might soon make the runners-up award ceremony incredibly grand, because the championship will be directly awarded to the team Kevin belongs to!!!"
A counterattack, a goal.
Real Madrid pressed forward in large numbers, Milan countered with only a Trident, missing one forward, but the impact was still incredibly strong.
Carvalho stood with hands on hips in place.
Actually, he still had a little chance this time.
But after fouling Huang Kaiwen before, he became much more cautious in body contact.
In less than half a second of hesitation, he lost the opportunity.
But Carvalho quickly accepted it.
Even if he had the chance, he felt he couldn’t intercept the ball.
Giving Huang Kaiwen a free-kick at the arc top, what’s the difference from directly scoring? He’d have to take another yellow card.
With this thought, he still made the best choice.
Mourinho put his hands in his pockets, but didn’t give the players more pressure verbally.
Though he really wanted to ask what Albiol and Carvalho were doing.
But swapping them with Nesta and Stam wouldn’t make things much better.
Bored, Mourinho kicked the turf, pouting and mimicked Guardiola’s tone in a low voice: "The score can’t well illustrate the gap between the two teams... Real Madrid is a strong team... Kevin is great, but it’s the whole team’s merit... I never believe in mysticism, I only believe in equivalent exchange..."
The fourth official hurriedly moved two steps to the other side.
Mourinho’s mental state made him very worried.
Real Madrid restarted the match.
Adebayor received on the wing and quickly returned the ball.
Xabi Alonso tapped with his right foot, taking small steps forward with the ball.
Rakitic quickly approached, after all, he was on the same side with Huang Kaiwen, he wasn’t prepared to let Huang Kaiwen chase.
Alonso still wanted to dribble and tease Rakitic while waiting for the formation to spread.
But Rakitic had no intention of getting close.
He doesn’t like entanglement and tackling in defense, preferring to predict the route of the ball.
Seeing Di Maria advance, Alonso finally realized the problem when he wanted to pass.
Rakitic, with his body sideways, was clearly waiting for him to pass.
Alonso, not daring to take risks, chose to return the ball; Abeloa directly passed to Pepe, who quickly passed forward to Alonso again.
Seeing an opportunity in the front field, Alonso immediately launched a big pass.
Nesta on the wing defense was overtaken by C. Ronaldo with explosive power.
Then Lars Bender was also overtaken head-on.
C. Ronaldo, during his run, distributed the ball to the side, Di Maria’s trivela cross was too close to the goal and was easily caught by Buffon.
"Oh, this chance was a shame."
"Nesta leaving his position to assist Bender, there’s no other way, C. Ronaldo and Di Maria both operating on the left wing, Bender can’t hold up alone."
"Yes, but Nesta’s speed has clearly declined; he had quite a few injuries this season."
"Indeed, I think Nesta should stay on the left with Zambrotta; he actively swapped positions with Thiago Silva, but now his speed probably doesn’t match Silva’s, and Real Madrid’s left wing is very fast."
Thiago Silva worriedly asked, looking at Nesta: "Should we swap positions?"
"Hmm?"
Nesta immediately replied: "No need!"
He’s not yet at the age where he needs anyone’s pity.
Watching Huang Kaiwen already run back to their own half, Nesta nodded and clenched his right fist and lifted his head.
When the teammates are striving hard, he can’t be the one dragging behind!
Both sides continuously creating opportunities made both teams much more cautious.
Even Real Madrid, trailing by one goal, aren’t in a hurry at the moment.
There’s still a lot of time left in the match.
Both sides’ wings are constantly attacking the opponent’s penalty area.
Di Maria once again sprinted out a through ball, C. Ronaldo adjusted too slowly after taking the ball, directly getting tackled out by Nesta.
Guardiola, holding his arm, was constantly stroking his chin with his right hand.
The outside world keeps saying Mourinho parks the bus, but his view isn’t so superficial.
Mourinho actually values the transition between attack and defense heavily.
Whether it’s the previous Lampard, Modric, or now Xabi Alonso, they’re all midfielders who can advance and retreat, have excellent off-ball movement abilities, and can quickly release the ball.
During the time Lampard left, and Modric hadn’t gone to Chelsea yet.
Mourinho had been trying to let Joe Cole do this job at the attacking midfielder position.
Though Joe Cole’s attendance rate was very low, Mourinho had no choice but to let Cole on the left wing and Huang Kaiwen assume this task.
