De Jong extended his foot and successfully poked the ball away; Cassano received the ball and quickly turned around as he moved backward.
Noticing that the opponents were closely marking Huang Kaiwen and no one was guarding him, Cassano felt insulted.
He dribbled the ball through the midfield heading straight for Sevilla’s penalty area, reaching the edge of the box before Yusuf Poulsen finally rushed towards Cassano.
Cassano pulled the ball with his right foot, slid his foot over to the right side of the ball, and hooked it back with the instep of his foot.
As the ball reached his left foot, Cassano controlled it with his left foot, almost losing the ball when Poulsen extended his foot to poke it away. He quickly made a diagonal pass with his body to the side.
Huang Kaiwen received the ball just in front of the penalty area and was instantly surrounded by four Sevilla players.
Huang Kaiwen controlled the ball, turned around, and dribbled along the penalty box line towards the left wing; Eto’o Ocio quickly slid to the ground and poked the ball away from in front of Huang Kaiwen.
"A brilliant tackle; Huang Kaiwen’s feet must still be cold."
"Ocio has received another yellow card, two yellows turn to red; let’s look at the replay... when Ocio got up, he stepped on Huang Kaiwen’s hand; this yellow card is fully deserved."
"Wow, Real Madrid players are not letting Ocio leave the pitch, eh? Ocio has been quite sneaky today, and this time he has fully angered the Real Madrid players."
"With Huang Kaiwen’s intervention, Cassano and De Jong finally let go of Ocio. From this conflict, we can see Huang Kaiwen’s status in Real Madrid; Guti giving him the captain’s armband was indeed the right decision."
"Sevilla still has one substitution slot left, but it looks like they are not planning to bring on a defender."
"Heh, at this point, it’s better to save the substitution slot for an attacking player; bringing on a defender won’t level the score."
A free kick just outside the penalty area.
Cissinho took a look and voluntarily stepped aside.
Huang Kaiwen stood at the spot of the foul, setting the ball.
With Guti and Beckham absent, he was the only one left to take the free kick.
Rashford’s free kick skills were also passable.
After adjusting, Huang Kaiwen started his run-up, striking the underside of the ball with the instep of his right foot while leaning to the side.
Bang— The ball, with its heavy spin, flew over the wall heading directly towards the right side of the goal.
Palop’s right foot pushed off the ground as he rapidly leaped and stretched his arms, realizing mid-air that he had misjudged the curve of the ball, which whizzed past the edge of his palm towards his back.
Duang—
The sound of the ball striking the post rapidly brought Palop back to his senses. Upon landing, he turned and pinned the ball under his body, with Cassano leaping over him inside the penalty area, unable to follow up with a shot.
"That was almost a goal!"
"Huang Kaiwen’s strike was incredibly tricky, but it was too difficult to handle, too angled; it had to clear the wall and then hit the tight corner."
Under Juan de Ramos’s urging, Palop kicked the ball to Alves, who faced pressing from both Huang Kaiwen and Cassano. Alves quickly controlled the ball and nudged it sideways, and Escude quickly launched a long pass towards the right side of the front field.
De Jong leaped and stopped the ball just in front of Maresca, turned swiftly, and passed to Diarra.
Diarra dribbled to the top of the arc and made a direct pass back to the retreating Cassano, who had barely controlled the ball and turned before Renato tripped him with an extended foot.
De Jong took a midfield free kick to the left wing; Huang Kaiwen controlled the ball with his left foot and ran towards the middle, while Cassano voluntarily moved wide to swap positions with Huang Kaiwen.
Slap—
Moving in his run, Huang Kaiwen stepped forward with his left foot, tapping the side of the ball with the instep of his right foot, sending it from behind his left foot towards the middle.
Cassano catching up to the ball nearly stumbled.
Having played the full match, he was out of stamina by this time. He quickly sidestepped to push the ball to Huang Kaiwen in the middle.
The exhausted Cassano had not controlled the power of his pass well, sending the ball at a very high speed.
Huang Kaiwen quickly raised his hand and stretched out his right foot, angling his instep to control the ball.
Renato, thinking Huang Kaiwen would mishandle the ball, charged towards Huang Kaiwen’s right side.
After successfully controlling the ball, Huang Kaiwen touched it with his right foot and easily evaded Renato, taking a couple of strides before cutting left toward the top of the arc.
Realizing the danger, Dragutinovic quickly charged from the left wing to the top of the arc, preparing to stick to Huang Kaiwen, while a frantically retreating Poulsen loudly shouted, "Don’t let him shoot!"
Bang—
At the left side behind the top of the arc, Huang Kaiwen suddenly powered his right knee, unexpectedly launching a shot.
Dragutinovic and Escude, one in front and one behind, had positioned themselves ready, yet the ball swiftly passed through them from behind the arc, leaving them without any action.
They couldn’t even manage a symbolic foot extension.
Standing inside the small penalty area, Palop was even further away, having enough time to react. He dived to the ground, stretching his arms long, but this time his fingertips didn’t even touch the ball; it almost grazed the left post before landing behind the goal line.
The overly forceful Palop laid on the left side of the penalty area, turning his head to watch the ball bounce behind the goal line.
The hunt for white feathers at dawn was futile among the rocks.
Boom—
"Saint Kevin!!!"
"Saint Kevin!!!"
"Saint Kevin!!!"
The Bernabéu Stadium, swarmed by more than 85,000 fans, once again erupted into thunderous cheers.
Even substituting in the final 10 minutes, the team’s core figure would not disappoint.
Scoring with just his second kick after coming on, he secured the win. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
In the front row, several fans wildly waved foam boards styled like the La Liga championship trophy; a bit further over, two female fans held up hand-written signs with their phone numbers.
Such scenes were commonplace at Real Madrid games.
Personally, Huang Kaiwen found the Italian female fans more to his taste than the Spanish ones.
"Huang Kaiwen!!!"
"Another world-class strike!"
"Huang Kaiwen has completely secured the victory, and the Bernabéu Stadium is boiling!"
