He felt much more relaxed not having to play as a defensive midfielder.

After the halftime break, Huang Kaiwen ran into Guardiola as he was heading back out.

Guardiola said, "Kevin, at the start of the second half, Inter Milan’s attacks will definitely be more aggressive. Once we get through this period, I’ll consider making substitutions. Even though we’re leading Chelsea 4:2, there’s still a chance for them to turn it around."

"Got it, coach."

Huang Kaiwen nodded and said.

After this match, it’s the UEFA Champions League again.

With this kind of grueling schedule, Guardiola will definitely need to rotate players.

Seeing Huang Kaiwen agree, Guardiola breathed a sigh of relief.

Back in Barcelona, he had had unpleasant disputes with some players over substitutions, most notably Eto’o, who is starting for Inter Milan today.

Luckily, Ramos’ defense was solid today, giving Eto’o little to no opportunities.

Not long after the second half started, Inter Milan replaced Pazzini with Milito.

"Pazzini himself doesn’t really fit Deschamps’ tactics."

"Yeah, he’s a typical poacher, not particularly strong physically, and his footwork isn’t very refined. It’s hard for him to provide more support to his teammates in the center. Clearly, Milito does a better job at this, while Pazzini is more suited as a finisher inside the penalty area."

"After the substitution, Inter Milan’s center has become more flexible. Maicon received a back pass from Milito and sent a through ball, Pandev reached the byline and crossed... but it was blocked, Nesta is still strong, sliding to block the ball in front of the goal, it’s also skill and bravery, if it were Carragher, ha."

Nesta’s slide blocked the ball, and Thiago Silva quickly turned and kicked the ball away.

This clearance was quite high, but the ball didn’t leave the penalty area.

Ramos, standing on the right of the penalty area, headed it directly to Eto’o.

But Eto’o miscontrolled the ball, sending it straight to Buffon’s hands.

Deschamps turned around and kicked the air hard to vent his frustration. This chance was so good, and they couldn’t even take a shot.

He felt that if this Inter Milan couldn’t earn points away at Milan, that would be insane!

"You guys better pay attention, seize every opportunity!!!"

Deschamps shouted towards the field.

This missed opportunity really got to him.

If it were during his playing days, he might have wanted to kick Eto’o.

Eto’o walked back with his head down.

He was already considering leaving the team.

He always had a stronger sense of pride than others, which is why he hates his old club Real Madrid so much.

After transferring away, every time he faced Real Madrid, he was like a man possessed.

Deschamps’ attitude today made him very unhappy.

A few minutes later, Inter Milan organized another attack, Milito received the ball in the penalty area, turned, and shot. But because of Nesta’s decisive tackle, he tried for an angle and ended up kicking the ball out of play.

The successive attacks posed no threat to the goal, and the Nerazzurri in the stands fell silent.

They could accept losing, but today’s performance from the strikers was just awful.

The shots were 17:4, shots on target 10:2, and those two shots on target were both Sneijder’s long-range shots.

If things continue like this, they might as well not field a striker, add more midfielders to strengthen the defense.

While defending, Milan didn’t give up on attacking either.

But today, Inter Milan’s defense was really tight against their attacking players.

Kaka got the ball again in the front and was immediately pressured by Motta, and passed back to Kroos, who Cambiasso rushed at.

Kroos controlled the ball with a touch, turned, and passed it back to midfield.

Huang Kaiwen received the ball, carrying it forward himself. When he reached near the center circle, the Inter Milan players didn’t react much.

But they soon realized something was wrong, and Cambiasso hurriedly sped up towards Huang Kaiwen.

Cambiasso timing his tackle, but Huang Kaiwen slightly sped up his footwork, easily dodging Cambiasso’s foot without making any other moves.

Motta, marking Kaka near the penalty area, decisively left Kaka.

But by this time, Huang Kaiwen had already swung his right foot and fiercely struck the ball.

Bang——

With the sound clear as day to the fans in the second tier of the stands, accompanied by a loud noise, the ball transformed into a streak of light.

What made it even harder for Cesar to accept was that the ball had a curve.

He jumped and extended his arm at the first instant, but in mid-air, he realized the ball’s curve was larger than he expected, the ball circumvented his arm, and almost hugging the inside of the post, it slipped into the net.

Guardiola on the sidelines was wildly pumping his fists in excitement, rapidly shouting in Catalan.

"I knew Kevin is the best defensive midfielder in the world, he’s the best number four, a better number four than I was..."

Huang Kaiwen’s performance on both ends today gave him hope.

If they’re going to play three defenders next, having Huang Kaiwen as the midfielder would definitely be no problem.

Guardiola immediately called Rakitic to warm up as quickly as possible.

"Huang Kaiwen, today’s hat-trick by Huang Kaiwen is truly amazing."

"Yes, and Huang Kaiwen’s shot was incredibly powerful, I can feel the speed of the ball even through the broadcast."

"Huang Kaiwen has been substituted off, and fans of both Milan clubs are applauding him."

"Receiving standing ovations from the entire stadium for two consecutive games shows just how good Huang Kaiwen’s performance is."

As soon as Huang Kaiwen stepped off, Inzaghi immediately came over and asked, "Do you want to go out for a celebration tonight?"

"A celebration sounds fine, but let’s not go out."

Huang Kaiwen said.

Inzaghi could only look around, trying to find someone to accompany him to go out and have fun.

Unfortunately, none of the young players in Milan are much into those kinds of places.

Even by the end of the match, he hadn’t found anyone to accompany him.

After the press conference ended, while walking to the parking lot, Huang Kaiwen saw someone — Federica Fontana.

A TV host like her could easily get into the stadium.

Evidently, Inzaghi hadn’t noticed his ex-girlfriend.

Still speaking loudly: "None of the girlfriends I’ve had in Milan City were meaningful. Since then, I don’t really date much, especially Federica, she clings to me every day, I almost felt like I had another mom."

Federica Fontana’s face turned pale as she walked swiftly towards Inzaghi.

Suddenly seeing her, Inzaghi froze on the spot, and before he could react, Federica Fontana’s stiletto heels struck him between the legs.

Huang Kaiwen shivered, thinking, the Holy Roman Empire might just have no heir.
