After signing with AC Milan, I will be the king of football!
Chapter 2053 - 534: Kevin and I Soar Together
But Lucio clutched between his legs and knelt on the ground.
"Sorry, I didn’t mean it, buddy."
Maicon explained with some concern.
Lucio looked so painful.
If he really can’t play, no matter how good the relationship is, it will lead to a fallout.
Lucio was in too much pain to speak, Huang Kaiwen waved to the sideline.
AC Milan’s medical team immediately entered the field.
Instead, Inter Milan’s medical team still sat on the sidelines preparing.
The faces of the Nerazzurri didn’t look good.
They can’t win at soccer, and even the medical team is inferior.
Their self-belief of being on the same level as Milan was hit again.
Feeling that the team is behind the cross-town rival in every aspect.
"It’s best to go off for icing, but there’s no major issue."
Giovanni Nanni said after checking.
By this time, Lucio had eased his pain and stood up and walked a few steps with difficulty.
Lucio waved his hand and said: "Thank you, but I won’t go off."
Giovanni Nanni shrugged at Huang Kaiwen and walked towards the sideline.
"Thanks, Kevin!"
Lucio said gratefully.
Huang Kaiwen patted his arm and said: "Be careful, if you can’t take it, go off."
Seeing that there’s no problem, Maicon quickly jumped to the sideline.
He mainly didn’t want to interact with Lucio, at least not now.
Lucio realized Maicon didn’t look him in the eye, threw the ball past him, feeling exasperated yet amused.
Maicon tossed the ball to Cambiasso.
Huang Kaiwen immediately rushed forward, with Kaka behind Cambiasso.
Cambiasso quickly pushed the ball forward.
Milito barely received the ball, and Van Bommel was already on his back.
Today AC Milan’s pressing is fiercer than before.
But Milito’s ability to hold the ball with his back is decent.
With Van Bommel pressing from behind, he felt somewhat reassured.
At least he knew the opponent’s position, Milito pulled with his right foot, feigning a turn.
He immediately turned in the opposite direction, tricking Van Bommel.
The disadvantaged Van Bommel pursued relentlessly, but Milito’s physical quality was good, giving him no advantage.
The two tangled all the way to the front right.
Pazzini actively went to support, but was tightly marked by Godin.
Zambrotta hovered between the two Inter forwards, ready to cover anytime.
"Sneijder’s absence is really impactful."
"Yes, Cambiasso specially goes to help organize, it’ll surely affect the defense, Motta doesn’t have that outstanding ability yet."
"The ball went to Pazzini, who couldn’t break through, and called for a corner."
Messi came back to half-field, wanting to join the defense.
Huang Kaiwen, laughing-crying, pulled the zealous Messi, saying: "You don’t need to defend, our heading ability is probably the strongest in Europe, leave it to the defenders."
Messi nodded with a smile, also feeling he was overly eager.
Inter Milan values this chance heavily.
Today they already feel that the internal competition in AC Milan is impacting the field.
The star players at Milan, under Huang Kaiwen’s influence, each pressing as if they were Gattuso.
Set pieces are their best chance to score.
Maicon deliberately wiped the ball clean, placed it solemnly at the corner flag, and started retreating.
"Run forward, I’ll give you the ball later!"
Huang Kaiwen signaled to Messi.
Messi quickly ran to the halfway line.
Huang Kaiwen shook his head.
Once they’ve played together more, Messi will understand.
The time it takes for Milan to get the ball to the opponent’s penalty area is only the time it takes for the ball to move.
Maicon kicked the ball into the penalty area.
Players from both sides jumped up en masse.
In the front, Lucio under Godin’s influence only grazed the ball, yet it also changed the ball’s trajectory.
The ball charged straight for the near post.
Buffon was positioned nearby, but with too many players in front, he could only push the ball with one hand.
The ball’s drop point was still inside the penalty box.
Diego Milito turned wanting to shoot, Thiago Silva rush tackled the ball first and swept it to find Ramos on the right.
Ramos flicked with his right foot, evading Maicon.
But immediately got pushed down by Motta.
"Tactical foul, Motta seems to mutter something, he’s trying to intentionally waste time, but Ramos ignored him, directly held the ball to pass to a teammate."
"Ramos was still calm at this moment, proving he’s not a simple reckless player, the ball went to Ramos on the right again, after Ramos broke through he sent a straight pass."
"Messi got the ball! But this position isn’t great, Inter’s retreating players are just in the vicinity, Messi!!! Messi squeezed out from between Yuto Nagatomo and Motta, his footwork was indeed agile, and he passed!"
Inter pushed too many players forward in this attack.
Their defense was quite empty.
Messi’s pass was highly penetrating, directly behind Samuel.
Samuel desperately chased back, but Huang Kaiwen’s speed was truly too fast!
The moment Messi passed, Huang Kaiwen was already off.
Before the ball reached its spot, Huang Kaiwen successfully overtook Samuel and left him more than a meter behind.
The next second, the ball came.
Huang Kaiwen directly formed a one-on-one.
Damn!
Cesar knew something wasn’t right at this sight.
Rushed out of the small penalty area.
This Brazilian goalkeeper even planned to rush out of the box for a sliding tackle, after all, facing Huang Kaiwen, hands were not much use.
But he overestimated himself and underestimated Huang Kaiwen’s speed.
