I Am Scouted by Real Madrid-Chapter 356 - 32: Eat My Cannon...
Then repeat it once more, only this time using two fingers on the right hand and three fingers on the left.
This action thoroughly enraged the Atletico Madrid fans.
Some even started throwing "big" items!
They shouted angrily!
"You damn monkey!"
"(Monkey screams)"
"I want the foreigner dead~~~~~~"
...
And Chen Zhong saw all of this as a reward...
Looking at the cracked Atletico Madrid fans, he smiled happily, even raised an eyebrow at Aguero while passing by, which also cracked Aguero...
Of course, it’s not like no one at Real Madrid was affected.
For instance, Pellegrini.
Real Madrid’s head coach was originally very happy on the sidelines, especially since the "parting in the middle" created space for Chen Zhong to use the "shake the tiger" tactic he designed outside the box.
However, when the Atletico Madrid fans really hit something on his head, Pellegrini quickly moved as close as possible to the edge of the field.
At the same time, he covered his head with one hand and used the other to complain to the fourth official, hoping they would maintain order at the scene.
"The referee temporarily suspended the match!"
"The players on both teams seem to be somewhat surprised."
"The Chilean head coach of Real Madrid, known as the ’Engineer,’ is holding his head on the sidelines."
"The Atletico Madrid fans are very excited and seem to have thrown something that hit this veteran coach."
"It’s clear that Chen Zhong’s actions have significantly stimulated them."
In intense football matches, it’s common for players and even referees to get injured.
However, it’s rare for a head coach, not running on the field or colliding, to get injured while directing the game.
The whole Estadio Vicente Calderón was like a volcano about to erupt, with the emotionally charged Atletico Madrid fans almost starting a riot.
And in these circumstances, Aguero was actually the fastest to move.
He was seen furiously waving his arms on the sidelines, loudly shouting to signal the fans to stay calm and not get agitated.
What’s 23 seconds!
We...
Even! 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
Were shattered by Ronaldo in 16 seconds! o(╥﹏╥)o
The emotions of the Atletico Madrid fans quickly calmed down, which is very rare in the entire football world, but understandable, as the Atletico Madrid fans were more ashamed than angry after being repeatedly teased, perhaps even the fan who started it all didn’t expect to hit Pellegrini’s head so accurately.
Pellegrini basically stood very close to the "warning line."
And Chen Zhong also received a warning from the referee, signaling him to tone it down and not provoke the fans.
On the sidelines, Atletico Madrid’s head coach Flores rubbed his temples as he looked at Chen Zhong, as if he had just come to his senses.
When he saw Real Madrid’s chaotic yet orderly attack, Flores realized the danger, and when he saw Chen Zhong’s powerful strike, his temples throbbed.
He finally realized something terrifying.
That is, this current Real Madrid seems to have no set attacking routine at all.
They can control the ball in the backfield to create space, break through on the sides, allow Chen Zhong to drive in with the ball, or make a long pass directly.
The offense is dazzling, as if everything follows one principle: whether Chen Zhong is happy or not.
Chen Zhong is like Pirlo during his Milan days, except with body contact.
Oh, speaking of which, Real Madrid even has an authentic Pirlo now...
Flores gathered his "wavering" thoughts and started shouting to encourage his players, still not changing his view, believing that he must turn passive into active.
Hence, he believed the team needed to quickly retrieve the ball after losing it.
Atletico Madrid kicked off, trying to "imitate" Real Madrid’s actions, attracting Real Madrid players to press forward, then a reverse charge followed by a long pass to break the opponent.
Unfortunately, Real Madrid didn’t fall for it.
A minute passed, then two minutes, and the sustained ball control made the fans on both sides somewhat restless.
Even online, fans started discussing:
[What’s going on?]
[Don’t Atletico Madrid know they’re behind now!?]
[I think they’re scared, especially since Chen Zhong’s shooting range is quite large!]
[Chen Zhong: I’m a bit large, just bear with me, taste my big...]
[I suspect the person above is making a joke, but I have no evidence.]
Atletico Madrid handled the ball cautiously, while Real Madrid remained steady, knowing they were ahead.
Finally, it was the Atletico Madrid players who couldn’t hold back.
In the cheers and encouragement from the home fans and the "provocation" from Real Madrid fans, they started moving forward tentatively.
Flores’ coaching style has gradually become known; he loves attacking from the wings, and Real Madrid is very diligent in shielding the wings.
Therefore, Atletico Madrid decided to try a different angle.
They aimed for central penetration.
This not only surprised the fans but even caught Real Madrid, including Chen Zhong, off guard!
Since Chen Zhong appeared in Real Madrid, teams facing them have preferred to play down the flanks rather than through the center.
Yet Atletico Madrid chose to play "under the lamp’s shadow!"
After some short passes, they attempted to pass the ball to the withdrawn Aguero.
"Atletico Madrid kicks off."
"Continuous passes trying to pull Real Madrid’s formation."
"Real Madrid’s players are very restrained."
"Still passing?"
"The formation is pressing forward."
"Again, pass to the middle?"
"Going to the tiger knowing it’s there?"
"The ball is given to Aguero!"
"Huh?"
Aguero got the ball near the center circle, strictly speaking, he was still in Atletico Madrid’s half.
Before receiving the ball, Aguero was excited, as if he saw himself catching Real Madrid unawares, like his Argentine compatriot Messi, charging directly from the center circle to the penalty area.
But the moment he got the ball, Aguero felt his hairs stand on end.
"This familiar feeling..."
"This is!!!"
Aguero’s confusion didn’t last long; the next moment, that familiar yet foreign impact appeared on his body, and Aguero lost balance and fell to the ground.
And the man who took the ball from him and crossed past him!
Was the very Chen Zhong he’s been thinking about for two years!
"Chen Zhong steals in the front field!"
"Real Madrid’s counterattack!"
"Aguero is down!"
"This is dangerous!"
"Quick advance."
Chen Zhong isn’t a player known for speed; after prying open Atletico Madrid’s formation, he needed to "distribute" the ball.
Because he believed Atletico Madrid wouldn’t allow him to do as he pleased.
Real Madrid’s transition from defense to attack was extremely rapid, with players actively running on both sides and upfront.
"Atletico Madrid rapidly returns to defense."
"They won’t let Chen Zhong carry the ball into the danger zone."
"Chen Zhong has great long-shot ability."
"Chen Zhong spins and controls the ball beautifully!"
"Then strikes the ball!"
