Chapter 100: 0096 Kevin Returns (Please Subscribe, Monthly Pass, Recommendation Tickets)

"Grateful prayer to our dear Lord, in the face of heathens, we muster our courage and sing Your name, and now we’ve encountered a crisis, we ask for Your mercy to vanquish all evil, Amen."

Fat Ancelotti took out the cross given by the Pope.

Mumbling under his breath.

Then he handed the cross to his assistant coach and instructed, "Place it on the chair of the coaching bench; as long as it does not fall, there will be no problem."

"Leave it to me, Carlo."

Assistant coach Tassotti assured, patting his chest.

Originally, Tassotti was not one to believe in these things.

But with the UEFA Champions League final approaching and both managers’ moves being widely reported in the newspapers as supernatural events, Tassotti had begun to believe that supernatural forces existed in this world.

Just at this moment,

an unexpected development occurred on the field.

Gattuso pushed Gerrard from behind.

The referee penalized AC Milan with a penalty.

Assistant coach Tassotti quickly found a spot to place the cross on.

"AC Milan has been awarded a penalty." "We can see Milan’s coach and assistant coach fiddling with a cross, they seem not too concerned about the penalty."

"You can’t say that; maybe Ancelotti believes that this could bless Milan."

"To disregard the people and ask the gods for help, isn’t this nonsense?"

Zhang chuckled.

But the next second, his smile froze on his face.

Xabi Alonso’s penalty was saved by Dida.

Could Ancelotti’s gesture actually be effective?

Of course, the twist came once again.

Xabi Alonso rushed to follow up his shot and sent the ball into the goal.

"Xabi Alonso!"

"It’s a goal!!!"

"Liverpool scored another goal, now the score is 4:3, with only one goal away from equalizing."

"Liverpool really has found their form."

"Hamann coming on has liberated Gerrard, they should continue to attack. AC Milan also has a problem now, which is their unified thinking."

"Some want to attack, some want to defend."

"Yes, after conceding 3 goals in 6 minutes, AC Milan players’ thoughts have seriously diverged. To safeguard the championship trophy, they need to have a unified approach first."

"Ancelotti is making a substitution."

"Kaladze is replacing Inzaghi, and Rui Costa for Gattuso."

"This substitution is probably meant to strengthen the defense, right?"

Zhang asked with some uncertainty.

"Hard to tell; Kaladze coming on should be playing defensive midfield to protect Pirlo, especially since Kaladze can play center back, left back, and defensive midfield."

"Ancelotti just instructed something from the sidelines, he probably wants the team to fall back on defense."

"Now let’s see if AC Milan can hold onto their one-goal lead."

Huang Kaiwen stood on the field.

Looking utterly bewildered and questioning his life.

Because Liverpool’s goal followed the same trajectory as the original.

But in this case, Liverpool shouldn’t score another goal, right?

Now, he wasn’t so certain.

After all, Sheva popping the champagne was just a joke.

Now it was truly happening.

After the restart, he charged at Gerrard.

Liverpool’s captain performance in the second half was too good; now he was determined to restrict Liverpool’s captain.

Your defense was all over me in the first half; now it’s only fair that I mark you.

This is what they call karma.

Huang Kaiwen’s defense was really average.

But he could get the hang of it.

When others were marking him, Huang Kaiwen learned quite a few tricks.

That’s how one becomes a good doctor after being ill for a long time.

Gerrard was harried to no end.

As Huang Kaiwen switched his target, Liverpool’s offensive momentum suffered as well.

Riise got the ball on the left wing and took another high-quality long shot.

Dida once again denied the ball entry into the net.

A few minutes later, Liverpool initiated another attack.

Xabi Alonso made a precise long pass from the back into Milan’s half.

Gerrard wanted to take the ball.

Huang Kaiwen immediately closed in on Gerrard.

The Liverpool captain managed to hook the ball at his feet, turn, and pass sideways.

Riise sprinted with the ball down the left.

Huang Kaiwen didn’t chase the ball.

He just stuck to Gerrard.

Seeing Gerrard surge forward,

Huang Kaiwen also rushed forward with him.

After Riise accelerated past Cafu, he looked up and thought, what’s going on here?

Huang Kaiwen was practically hugging Gerrard.

He could only pass to another teammate.

Riise delivered a cross with his left foot into the center of the penalty area.

Before Baros could reach it, Dida punched the ball out of the penalty area.

"Huang Kaiwen is really active on defense today."

"Haha, yes, look at Gerrard arguing with Huang Kaiwen, probably asking why Huang is hugging him. Huang just turns away and walks off, not giving you the time of day, leaving Gerrard standing there, hands on hips, fuming."

"It has to be said, even though Huang Kaiwen is in average form, his awareness is there; he immediately recognized that Gerrard is key."

"Right, Gerrard’s forward move in the second half immediately elevated Liverpool’s attack to another level. Huang Kaiwen’s close marking of Gerrard is a sensible choice."

"Benitez looks helpless from the sidelines; even with just a one-goal difference, there’s not much he can do with his core player being restrained."

"Ancelotti is preparing another substitution."

"The previously outstanding Crespo is getting ready to come on; replacing Shevchenko?"

"That’s right, he’s replacing Shevchenko."

"Ancelotti probably wants Crespo to come on and make a push, especially since both sides have seen a decrease in energy levels in the second half."

"This means AC Milan has used all their substitutions; it’s quite risky."

"Indeed, if there’s an injury on the field, AC Milan will have to play with only 10 men."

As the match continued,

Liverpool also used their last substitution.

Cisse replaced Baros.

Both managers had played all their cards in hand.

The score was still 4:3.

The Frenchman Cisse’s speed was very fast.

And now, my leg isn’t even broken.

After he took to the field, Xabi Alonso frequently sent long passes dangling into the penalty area.

Cisse kept charging forward relentlessly.

He really put a lot of pressure on Milan’s defense.

Inzaghi mumbled from the side, "It’s just like a dog catching a frisbee, shamelessly copying someone else’s tactics."

In the 2nd minute of injury time, Nesta intercepted Cisse.

He immediately passed it to Maldini.

Maldini, who hadn’t been involved in the attack for a while, ran forward wildly with the ball like a horse off its reins, charging down the left.

He had just crossed the halfway line.

When Xabi Alonso approached him.

Maldini sent a lobbed pass to Kaka.

Kaka himself rushed towards Liverpool’s penalty area with the ball.

First, he dribbled past Hamann with a change of direction while running.

Then, he carried the ball forward again.

Although Kaka’s dribbling looked very simple,

the high-speed dribbling and changes of direction were actually very practical.

Otherwise, Kaka wouldn’t have made such a big name for himself.

Carragher and Hyypia were somewhat panicked.

Both of them rushed at Kaka together.

Seeing that Huang Kaiwen hadn’t caught up, Kaka turned his head and thought of passing to Rui Costa.

But before he could kick the ball,

he felt a force from behind push him over.

Carragher got the ball and passed it to Alonso; Xabi Alonso raised his leg and sent a long pass forward.

"That should have been a foul, the referee didn’t blow the whistle," someone said.

"Indeed, Huang Kaiwen tackled Kaka."

"The camera switches to the front, Cisse; Cisse storms into AC Milan’s penalty area."

"Dida comes out of goal to tackle Cisse, and Cisse goes down!"

"Penalty!!!"

"Penalty!!!"

"The referee has actually awarded a penalty!"

Huang Jianxiang said excitedly, "Carragher committed a foul just now, Liverpool managed to intercept the ball and start an attack thanks to a foul, and the referee’s previous misjudgment has pushed AC Milan into a desperate situation. What can AC Milan, with no substitutions left, do now since Dida has been shown a red card?"

"Under the current circumstances, AC Milan can only have one of their outfield players guard the goal."

Zhang sighed and said, "This situation has happened before. During the 2002-2003 season, the match between Dortmund and Bayern, Lehmann was sent off, and Jan Koller had to stand in as a goalkeeper; in the following 20 minutes, he performed exceptionally well, catching high balls and blocking without letting Bayern’s stars score."

"Now they can only use another player as an emergency goalkeeper."

Ancelotti and his assistant coach Tassotti looked back.

The cross had indeed fallen over.

Damn it.

I didn’t realize Liverpool’s man was so capable.

Fat Ancelotti quickly rummaged through his bag again.

He took out some powder and sprinkled it on the sidelines.

...

The Milan players were surrounding the main referee, demanding an explanation.

But Huang Kaiwen didn’t have much hope that they would convince the referee to change his mind.

Seeing Dida trying to hand the gloves over to Kaladze, Huang Kaiwen approached and said, "Give them to me, Nelson."

"You?" Dida slapped his forehead and laughed, "Right, Kevin, you’ve saved several of Filippo’s penalties today, you’ll definitely be fine."

"I’ll do my best."

Even with the "Yassine" experience card.

This was the first time Huang Kaiwen guarded a standard goal.

He didn’t have much confidence.

But even without much confidence, he should still be better than any of the outfield players, right?

Ancelotti, standing on the sidelines, didn’t reject Huang Kaiwen’s suggestion either.

So, Huang Kaiwen donned the goalkeeper gloves and stood in front of the goal.

Just standing in front of the goal,

Huang Kaiwen felt an incredible sense of comfort.

After all, a goalkeeper should be in this position.

Boom—

This action.

Almost set the whole world alight.

The entire stadium went wild.

Even the Milan fans couldn’t understand the decision.

Crudeli in the commentary box was furiously questioning, "Has Ancelotti lost his mind? What team would let their key player guard the goal at such a critical moment?"

"Kevin isn’t a goalkeeper, he hasn’t had specialized training, how can he possibly be a goalkeeper?"

"Moreover, if Kevin gets injured while guarding, Milan will be in an even worse situation."

"Ancelotti must be crazy!"

"Milan had better find a new coach at the end of the season."

...

Zhang and Huang Jianxiang looked at each other, Huang Jianxiang asked dryly, "Director Zhang, can Huang Kaiwen play as a goalkeeper?"

"I don’t know either, you two share the same family name, what do you think?"

God damn relatives.

Just because my surname is Huang doesn’t mean I know whether Huang Kaiwen can play as a goalie or not.

Zhang sighed again, "Goalkeeping is difficult for a regular player; movements are standardized. Even if Huang Kaiwen has quick reflexes, he hasn’t had goalkeeper training and likely can’t play as a goalkeeper."

"Yeah, Milan is in trouble now."

Chinese fans watching on TV were going berserk.

"Damn, is Kevin really going to guard the goal?"

"I’m starting to believe in curses now, Ancelotti must be cursed; he couldn’t make such a ludicrous decision otherwise."

"Dude, it seems like it was Huang Kaiwen who volunteered."

"Just because he volunteers, they agree? I also want to marry Jia Jingwen, but do you see her agreeing?"

"The guy above, go to bed earlier, you get everything in dreams."

"I said it earlier, Milan is definitely going to lose. If the penalty goes in and the game goes to extra time, how is Huang Kaiwen going to guard the goal?"

"I suspect Huang Kaiwen is going to get injured soon; it’s always around this time that he gets injured."

"No doubt, bro. If AC Milan wins, I’ll never touch a computer again."

Just then, Xabi Alonso had already started his run-up.

After the run-up, he struck the ball viciously on its underside with his right foot.

Over 70,000 fans in the stadium opened their eyes wide.

Not because of Alonso’s shot.

But because Huang Kaiwen dove in the right direction!
