I Am Scouted by Real Madrid-Chapter 505 - 8: The Celebration

Sevilla’s head coach seemed to have lost all strength and means.

Facing Real Madrid’s offensive, they were like a small boat in a storm, ready to capsize at any moment.

The team’s coach, Alvarez, was also caught in a dilemma.

Real Madrid had already scored two consecutive goals, leveling the aggregate score, and in the remaining time, should I choose to lose without an ugly score, or continue to fight back?

On the shaky coaching bench, Alvarez was caught in the same predicament he faced countless times last season, unable to quickly and decisively make the right choice when needed.

Meanwhile, on the sidelines, Mourinho and the Real Madrid players were united, launching an aggressive pressing against the disorganized Sevilla.

Sevilla had completely fallen into internal chaos.

Some of their players wanted to attack, unwilling to admit defeat like this, some wanted to stabilize first, while others wanted to see what their coach would direct.

"Sevilla kicks off."

"This through ball had an idea."

"But Chen Zhong intercepted the ball."

"Too rushed."

"The passing route was read."

"Chen Zhong intercepted the ball, and Real Madrid launched a counterattack."

Sevilla appeared somewhat anxious, as they tried to open up the middle, but that direct through ball was intercepted by Chen Zhong, who stretched out a leg.

After intercepting the ball, Chen Zhong advanced it forward, and Sevilla’s players were drawn to his action, converging on him from all sides.

It was a helpless choice.

If they didn’t close in, Chen Zhong would be in his shooting range just outside the penalty area.

If they did close in, Chen Zhong would comfortably control the ball and pass it to a teammate at the right moment.

"Sevilla tries to encircle Chen Zhong."

"Currently in La Liga, the two most threatening players."

"One is Barcelona’s Messi, the other is Real Madrid’s Chen Zhong."

"They both are players who threaten anywhere they have the ball on the field."

"Of course, Cristiano Ronaldo is also a top player, but some defenders, in interviews, have said that he only causes worry when in the attacking area."

Messi can perform dribbles and take on half a team after getting the ball at half-field, while Chen Zhong’s long shots, long passes, and short passes are very threatening.

Someone once said: It’s not Chen’s long passes, short passes, long shots, or body that’s most frightening. It’s his broad vision and calm mind.

He always makes the right choice, every single time, whether in defense or attack.

On the field, Chen Zhong was constantly moving his head to observe the positioning of players around him.

When Sevilla’s players gathered around, outsiders might think they surrounded Chen Zhong, but in his view, he had drawn Sevilla’s attention, creating space for his teammates to attack.

"A chipped pass."

"Right wing."

"Kaka!"

Several consecutive Real Madrid attacks were focused on Cristiano Ronaldo, although they knew they should guard Kaka, their actions invariably showed slack.

Kaka’s ability to evade on the spot is extremely excellent.

Chen Zhong’s pass was perfectly timed, avoiding physical confrontation with the nearby defenders for Kaka.

In the stands, the Real Madrid fans created a roaring wave of support, and after shaking off the defenders, Kaka, without any intentions of stopping the ball, tipped the ball forward with his forehead and chased the bouncing ball towards Sevilla’s penalty area.

Seeing this, Di Maria, sitting on the bench, turned somewhat green.

Last season, Kaka was out for three months due to surgery, and his form wasn’t the same after his return, with his World Cup performance also not outstanding.

Di Maria came here, having discussed somewhat with the coaching staff.

If Kaka wasn’t fit, then Di Maria could take the position.

Of course, Mourinho wouldn’t give up on Kaka; he also had a plan for Kaka to play as an attacking midfielder, on the premise that Kaka’s well-known ability to evade on the spot and explosiveness were still there.

Otherwise, Mourinho also had a Plan B, involving the outstanding Big Eyes or Chen Zhong from the World Cup.

Mourinho never had just one plan; he always had alternatives, he always had a way.

When he saw Kaka had broken away from the defenders, creating a brilliant opportunity, Mourinho’s eyes were gleaming.

"One-on-one!"

"Kaka rushed into Sevilla’s penalty area!"

"Shoots!"

"A cool finish to the far corner!"

"The ball’s in! Kaka! Kaka!"

"3:0"

"Aggregate score 3:2"

"Real Madrid completed the turnaround in just 15 minutes of the first half!"

"With Chen Zhong substituting in, Real Madrid transformed completely."

"It’s now clear who the true core of this team is!"

Kaka beamed a radiant smile upon scoring, first raising both hands to the sky to thank God, then ran to the corner flag, sending dazzling smiles to the fans.
