After signing with AC Milan, I will be the king of football!-Chapter 1768 - 476: Have You Ever Been Kicked at Light Speed?
"Press up, press up directly!"
Ranieri urged urgently from the sidelines.
He was truly frightened.
Using the advertising boards on the sidelines as a reference, Huang Kaiwen’s speed was remarkably exaggerated.
Ranieri suspected that Huang Kaiwen was running at a hundred-meter sprint speed.
Damn, this was the first time he knew someone could do such a thing on the grass field.
Burdizzo gritted his teeth and rushed forward.
But saying he rushed wasn’t accurate, because he didn’t increase his speed.
Huang Kaiwen’s high-speed changing direction ability was there; if he sprinted fully, he’d probably be dribble past by Huang Kaiwen in a face-off.
But even though Burdizzo was cautious, Huang Kaiwen fiercely knocked the ball forward right in front of him, then squeezed through between him and the sideline.
The Roma fans in the stands fell into silence.
They even doubted if any player could stop Huang Kaiwen.
The Roma players couldn’t even make Huang Kaiwen slow down.
Just Huang Kaiwen alone attracted Hu An and Mexes, two center-backs, over to the left for extra defense; if not, they’d probably concede again.
Hu An stood inside the penalty area, watching Huang Kaiwen bring the ball down to the bottom line; he had no other ways.
After all, his turning speed couldn’t keep up, so he could only deliberately slow down a bit, to avoid being left behind abruptly by Huang Kaiwen stopping the ball.
But at that moment, Huang Kaiwen slipped on the grass right at the bottom line, his whole body flew out, almost crashing into the advertising boards before he could lift his foot to slow down and finally stopped.
"Heh, this time it was that patch of grass not laid properly. It just came up. Roma’s best defense against Huang Kaiwen so far has surprisingly been the home turf."
"That’s true, but there’s nothing we can do. Huang Kaiwen’s speed is too fast!"
"True indeed, today it seems like Huang Kaiwen has reached his fastest speed on the field. If it were a track event, I wonder if his current state could even beat Bolt."
The whole Roma team breathed a sigh of relief.
Luckily Huang Kaiwen couldn’t cut inside the penalty area.
Otherwise, a simple cut back could easily pass the ball out for Torres to form a strike.
Torres, standing outside the big penalty area, was wide-eyed.
Damn!
He always knew Huang Kaiwen was faster than him.
But today he realized how much faster Huang Kaiwen truly was.
Earlier, his position was more advanced, constantly waiting for a chance to connect with Huang Kaiwen.
Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Huang Kaiwen had already brought the ball forward, leaving Torres anxious to rush forward, yet unable to catch up with Huang Kaiwen’s speed.
Torres could only comfort himself internally, aside from Huang Kaiwen, there weren’t many players faster than him.
"Kaiwen, Kaiwen!!!"
Guardiola called anxiously from the sidelines.
"Coach is calling you."
Kaka pointed towards the sideline and said.
"Hmm, I got it."
Huang Kaiwen nodded and ran to the sideline.
Guardiola quickly handed him a water bottle, Huang Kaiwen rinsed his mouth and spat the water on the sidelines.
Guardiola then said: "Kaiwen, I know your speed is fast, but I hope you can slow down a bit. Jenny also mentioned that being too fast puts a great burden on your body; if you get injured just now, that would be bad."
"Alright, Coach!"
Huang Kaiwen nodded and replied.
With [Immunity Card], he wasn’t afraid of injury.
But he couldn’t explain this to Guardiola.
Guardiola finally breathed a sigh of relief after getting Huang Kaiwen’s promise.
Ranieri on the sideline rolled his eyes, Guardiola’s voice was loud.
He witnessed the development of things.
A coach persuading his player not to go all out while dribbling, to run slower, felt like showing off no matter how.
Though he didn’t regret rejecting AC Milan and continuing coaching his beloved Roma.
But not being able to work with Huang Kaiwen, Ranieri felt a bit regretful.
He understood that the chance to coach Huang Kaiwen might only come once in a lifetime, and it was also the best chance to win the UEFA Champions League.
With such speed, no player could block him.
Ranieri didn’t even have the mood to remind the Roma players; even if he did, the Roma players couldn’t defend.
It was like playing football with light.
No matter how fast a human’s speed is, can it be faster than the speed of light?
The entire Roma team was terribly frightened by Huang Kaiwen; yet after kick-off, they still maintained an offensive posture.
This was the Red Wolf Legion.
They often played with large scores, and also got played against with large scores.
As one of the four swans born in ’87, Mené’s talent was unquestionable.
He was still the youngest hat-trick record holder in Ligue 1.
Mené’s speed wasn’t slow, and he had good technique and flexibility; most importantly, his ability to face off wasn’t bad, and he was a two-footed player.
The only issue was injuries had hampered his development.
After Mené actively pulled to the side, Gattuso immediately marked him closely.
Brighi supported promptly, Mené hurriedly made a back pass, and quickly charged forward himself.
After Brighi received the ball, he wanted to continue passing back to Mené, completing a one-two.
But Ramos’s marking speed was extremely fast, leaving him with no target.
Brighi held the ball upfield, also closely marked by Gattuso.
As a player better at defense, Brighi quickly felt Gattuso’s tenacity.
Too agile!
Gattuso had a very low center of gravity.
Don’t be fooled by his often messy appearance; in reality, he did it deliberately.
Gattuso engaged upper body contact while following the ball handler with his footwork, so he often appeared on the verge of falling over.
Brighi tried twice in succession but failed to pass the ball.
He could only turn and face his side’s half, if it didn’t work, pass back to a teammate.
From the corner of his eye, he saw De Rossi’s figure.
Brighi opted to pass.
Then suddenly, Huang Kaiwen charged out, intercepting the ball in front of De Rossi.
"Beautiful!!!"
"Huang Kaiwen, sensing the right flank of his side’s attack was crucial, decisively lingered around the center circle waiting for a chance, which he has now gotten!"
Huang Kaiwen received the ball, diagonally charging forward in front of De Rossi.
De Rossi instinctively reached out and grabbed Huang Kaiwen’s left hand, but Huang Kaiwen brushed him off instantly.
Riise chose to run straight back, wanting to return to the penalty area.
Mexes dashed towards Huang Kaiwen, intending to coordinate with Hu An and De Rossi to steal the ball.
Huang Kaiwen dribbled from the center circle, surrounded by Mexes, Hu An, and De Rossi on his right.
While on his left was Burdizzo.
This Roma’s defense compressed aggressively for this attack; several defenders operated near the center circle.
Burdizzo hadn’t even managed to react before Huang Kaiwen sped past him with the ball, charging right by his side.
Just a few simple accelerations, and he effortlessly broke through Roma’s entire defense.
Mexes realized the danger, circled around Hu An, and lunged at Huang Kaiwen.
Yet.
The speed gap between the two left him without even the chance to commit a foul, leaving Mexes with the sole option of chasing back Huang Kaiwen.
Running behind Huang Kaiwen, despite using all his strength, he still couldn’t close the gap between them.
Watching Huang Kaiwen get closer to the penalty area.
Frustrated, Mexes even contemplated a slide tackle.
But he knew he couldn’t even accomplish that; the moment he gave up chasing at full speed, Huang Kaiwen would leave him far behind.
In this scenario, Mexes could only grit his teeth and kept pursuing.
Fortunately, he saw Doni coming out, which was good news.
Though Doni ran up to the edge of the goal area but stopped advancing further.
Mexes wanted to ask what on earth Doni was doing.
Wasn’t he aware how ridiculously powerful Huang Kaiwen’s shots inside the penalty area were?
Indeed!
Huang Kaiwen’s right foot was now stepping onto the big penalty area line, and he’d already lifted his left foot.
Doni quickly dropped to the ground, reaching out; but in the next second, he realized his misjudgment.
Boom—
A low, mid-air ball!
Huang Kaiwen didn’t aim at the ground at all with this shot; the ball flew right over Doni, plunging fiercely into the right side of the goal!
