I Am Scouted by Real Madrid-Chapter 359 - 33: Ah! Huh?
The Atletico Madrid fans in the stands were excited, while the Real Madrid fans let out sounds of surprise, even questioning if Aguero was really that strong.
What!
When Chen Zhong was on the field you were timid, but as soon as he’s off, you come out swinging!
A red card suddenly put Real Madrid in a difficult situation, allowing Atletico Madrid to take control of the remaining time. They even managed to score two goals in three minutes, giving the Atletico Madrid fans in the stands hope and sending them into a frenzy.
In the 78th minute of the match, Jurado from Atletico Madrid delivered a brilliant through ball. Uyfalusi raced down the right and squared the ball, and Fernando, who had barely had any chances this game, executed a neat finish into the bottom left corner.
1:3
And in the 80th minute, Alonso, who had just recovered from injury, made a passing error under the intense pressure from the Atletico Madrid players. After a lot of scrambles, the ball landed at Aguero’s feet.
After receiving the ball, Aguero flicked it up, jumped to dodge Pepe’s sliding tackle.
Then, in a one-on-one situation, he broke into the right side of the penalty area and took a diagonal shot, once again beating a somewhat unfocused Casillas.
The two goals within three minutes completely ignited the fire in the hearts of Atletico Madrid fans.
They cheered loudly in the stands, prompting wave after wave of attacks from the Atletico Madrid side.
If it weren’t for Casillas’s excellent saves and Pellegrini promptly parking the "bus" in front, whether Real Madrid could have held the victory would have been a big question mark.
This scenario led to many fans watching the game to curse Pellegrini’s "stupidity!"
[Has he become complacent? Even replacing Chen Zhong?]
[Ramos and Pepe are really a dynamic duo, with Chen on they don’t use them, without Chen they become two ticking bombs.]
[So on what grounds was Pepe worth so much then? Calderon really messed things up, Pepe should be worth at most 10 million Euros.]
[Without Chen Zhong, Real Madrid looks soulless and without a pivot, they don’t know around whom to play offense or defense. Honestly, I think it’s a drawback.]
[Chen Zhong is indeed very talented and capable, but he’s still young, and stamina is a big problem for him! Plus, what was Pellegrini thinking after subbing out Chen Zhong! Completely overrun by Atletico Madrid!]
...
No comparison, no harm.
With Chen Zhong on the field, Fernando and Aguero were completely subdued, and the Atletico Madrid fans looked like they had resigned to their fate.
But after Chen Zhong was off?
Atletico Madrid suddenly felt empowered, and even nearly turned the game around!
At the post-match press conference, Flores faced the reporters and praised Chen Zhong lavishly without restraint, even giving Pellegrini some sly comments.
He said, "If I were the coach of Real Madrid, I would never take a player like Chen off the field for the entire match."
He also talked about his connection with Chen Zhong, reminiscing about his days at the Real Madrid Youth Team, and praised Chen’s talent, affirming his growth rate.
Looking at Flores’s charismatic presence, some netizens even called for replacing Pellegrini with Flores as the coach.
When Pellegrini was interviewed and asked if he was worried about his coaching career at Real Madrid, he shut everyone up with just one sentence!
"I have a great relationship with Chen!"
"We often discuss tactics together."
Pellegrini: What? You all are standing up for Chen? Sorry, but I’m with Chen.
