Chapter 2246 - 575: The Heart of a Dream-Chaser
Nearly insane!!!
Van Persie tore off his shirt and sprinted wildly at the Allianz Arena.
His teammates didn’t rush to the backfield but headed straight for van Persie.
This is the most instinctive reaction of people.
Even if Milan players thought they could equalize, they never imagined it would be van Persie to tie the score!
Buffon saw red, forcing Huang Kaiwen to become the goalkeeper.
The situation took a sharp turn.
Besides Messi, another person stepped up.
At that moment, van Persie had already forgotten that Robben had scored one more goal than him.
He only knew how crucial this goal was, invaluable!
5:5, an extraordinarily rare final score.
Yet it truly happened.
The last two goals from Milan, Huang Kaiwen’s full-court solo effort, and Huang Kaiwen’s powerful throw-in assist!
The delivery and shots from the goalkeeper position completely crushed the Germans’ championship plans.
Even though it’s still a tie, the whole world believes the title will ultimately belong to Milan!
Van Marwijk was beside himself with excitement.
So powerful!
If van Persie and Robben could perform like this for the national team, even formidable Spain wouldn’t be their match, right?!
He was seated on the side stand.
Watching firsthand how van Persie fought back, finally striking a bouncing shot.
All one can say is it’s truly Robin van Persie!
To still deliver such a high-quality shot under these circumstances.
As for Robben, there’s nothing more to say, with his unique inside cut skill, almost nobody can fully defend him.
Van Marwijk somewhat understood Milan’s starting lineup.
Rakitic, Kroos, Van Bommel – this midfield leans more towards versatility.
During most times, they are responsible for defense.
In this fiercely competitive era of midfield play, they can’t be considered top-tier. At least compared to those three in Barça, they lack quite a bit in creativity.
However, if Huang Kaiwen is upfront, there’s simply no need for the midfield to have such strong creativity.
Huang Kaiwen is almost equivalent to a combination of Sneijder, Robben, van Persie, and a fullback, given the ball, he can organize an offensive single-handedly.
That’s why AC Milan uses this kind of midfield, and they have delivered top-level results.
But when Huang Kaiwen is not on the field, the first half today is a great example, Bayern’s double midfielders were too strong, combined with an unfatigued Müller causing chaos.
The disadvantage of Milan’s midfield became apparent.
At this time, Messi retreated to organize, and Ramos moved up to assist.
Against ordinary teams, no, even when facing a powerhouse like Chelsea, they can still achieve good results.
But Bayern’s wing attack capability is too sharp.
Against a strong wing team like Bayern, without Huang Kaiwen to organize and break through, Milan’s midfield organization capability and fullback issues were both exposed.
If not for AC Milan players performing well, the score might have been large before Huang Kaiwen played.
He used to think that Hazard could be a suitable substitute for Huang Kaiwen.
But once the intensity picked up, he realized that the young man was still far behind.
Hazard can be the core at a good team in the future.
But he can’t do what Huang Kaiwen does, which is using powerful offensive force to completely cover his teammates’ flaws.
Or rather, no other player can achieve this.
Even standing on the goal line, still scoring and assisting.
Van Marwijk is both delighted and somewhat worried.
The Netherlands has no goalkeeper who can throw the ball past half-field.
Later, he intends to call Stekelemburg to confirm this issue.
...
"They remembered you as the assisting hero."
Nesta teased, looking at his teammates running back.
"Being excited is normal, actually, I’m also excited."
Huang Kaiwen said with a smile.
"Then why don’t you show it?"
Nesta curiously asked.
"I’m the type who is more reserved with emotions; if emotions burst out, they’ll last for some time, affecting the psychological state for the rest of the game, so I try not to express my emotions."
Huang Kaiwen said with a smile.
He also has many moments of passionate celebration.
But today is just not suitable.
Besides, his phone is dead, and he hasn’t been able to update on Lily’s social media.
Any unnecessary actions now are a drain for him.
"Whatever you say is right, if we win the championship this time, we must celebrate!"
Nesta said excitedly.
"Planning to retire?"
Huang Kaiwen asked.
"I’m already considering it, once I feel I’m a burden, I won’t keep playing." Nesta said, patting Huang Kaiwen on the shoulder: "But I might stay at Milan; maybe I can become the team’s coach in the future."
Huang Kaiwen:...
How about I write a recommendation for you to coach Inter Milan.
Neihai coaching Inter, Inzaghi taking charge of Juventus.
Milan’s position will be solid!
They don’t even need to intentionally play poorly; hard work will suffice.
It’s really not easy for top players to become top coaches after retirement, as seen from Milan’s legends.
However, these people really have little to say for the team.
As a similarly big club, they’re much better than Manchester United’s overly vocal legends.
Xabi Alonso stood there, watching Huang Kaiwen surrounded by teammates.
Even though he knew Ribery’s follow-up shot and his successful penalty were the same, he still wasn’t satisfied.
After so many years, he had specifically trained himself to be accustomed to the lower left corner.
But once again, facing Huang Kaiwen, he still failed to score a penalty.
Alonso recalled why he practiced left-sided penalties.
The reason was Huang Kaiwen.
