Chapter 2240 - 573: Heavenly Kingdom Dynasty
"Hehe, Huang Kaiwen, another one!"
"This goal was almost effortless for Huang Kaiwen. Bayern’s defense line was a bit high during the attack, and they were torn apart by the counterattack."
"Yes, mainly in the first half, AC Milan’s counterattack wasn’t this sharp, so Bayern players didn’t anticipate it. van Persie’s overhead kick pass was truly beautiful, and then Huang Kaiwen’s dribble past Neuer was the pendulum dribble, right?"
"Yes, it’s the pendulum dribble. Currently, in the entire football world, the only one who can use this move effectively is Huang Kaiwen. The pendulum dribble demands a very high level of physical fitness and also puts significant pressure on the joints and muscles. To the fans in front of the TV, we don’t recommend experimenting with this dribbling technique on the field as it might lead to injuries."
"The camera shows Nesta, did he get injured during that tackle? Nesta waved his hand towards the sidelines, it seems he should be able to carry on."
"Nesta’s biggest enemy is not others but himself. It might be due to his playing style that he has never been able to shake off the troubles of injuries."
Heynckes directly pushed Conte to the sideline.
And waved for Lahm to come over.
"Boss, what’s the situation?"
Lahm wiped off some sweat and asked.
Dealing with Messi is definitely not easy; today, he endured quite a bit of pressure.
"We’ll substitute soon; you defend Kevin."
Heynckes said.
Lahm nodded.
He guessed it would be this outcome.
But at this moment, no one in the team could actually stop Huang Kaiwen.
As for whether he could, Lahm wasn’t confident either.
Heynckes, with his arm around Lahm’s shoulder, said: "This is indeed very difficult, but someone has to do it. I hope you can help us seize this trophy, understand what I mean?"
"Don’t worry, boss!"
Lahm nodded and said.
Although it’s somewhat challenging.
But Lahm clearly understands one thing: to have status in Bayern, you must perform in crucial moments.
Otherwise, the management wouldn’t tolerate his big mouth.
Today, let’s not talk about completely shutting down Huang Kaiwen.
As long as he can slightly restrict him and help Bayern achieve victory.
This is still an achievable opportunity.
"Why is AC Milan making another substitution?"
"Rakitic probably got injured during the scramble just now; this young player has been very active today."
"Yes, young players are definitely excited to play in a final, their movements tend to be bigger, but sometimes the movements are too big and can injure themselves."
"Now AC Milan has used up all its substitution slots; they can’t afford any more accidents."
"Gattuso is on the field, this veteran coming out at a crucial moment. When Huang Kaiwen first joined AC Milan and in their initial season, they helped AC Milan lift the championship trophy together. Let’s see if they can do it again today."
Buffon was still holding on to Nesta.
He was a bit worried, asking: "Are you really okay?"
"Nothing much, just had some muscle soreness during the tackle earlier, it’s because I haven’t played much lately."
Nesta forced a smile and said.
But Buffon wasn’t reassured at all.
The team doesn’t have any more substitution slots now.
With Bayern restarting play, they were visibly more cautious, continuously passing the ball in the backfield.
Alonso and Schweinsteiger controlled the rhythm.
Never could there be another team in the world with such a luxurious duo of defensive midfielders.
van Persie directly charged forward.
He certainly didn’t want Bayern to waste time like this.
But pressing alone was ineffective.
Huang Kaiwen and Messi had to join in and charge forward.
At this moment, Alonso nudged with his left foot, held off Messi, swung his right foot to send a long pass.
"Robben, Robben again on the left side with the ball, Robben’s dribbles are very sharp."
Robben dribbled horizontally, and Milan’s defensive players felt a twinge of anxiety.
Nesta rushed forward again, attempting to avert the crisis, but didn’t expect Robben to suddenly pass sideways.
Müller received the ball, swiftly dribbling along the grass into the penalty area.
Damn!
Buffon saw Gomes block Thiago Silva, that’s when he knew they were in trouble.
Ribery’s footwork was very nimble.
Faced with Ribery’s solo attempt, Buffon seized the timing to pounce.
But the only thing he pounced on was Ribery’s foot.
The Allianz Arena instantly fell silent.
Then the stands erupted with tremendous cheers from the home fans.
Red card!
The referee pointed to the twelve-yard mark and showed a red card.
At this moment, the broadcaster’s camera turned to Milan’s coaching bench; the equipment manager pulled out a goalkeeper shirt bearing the number 10 from the bag!
