After signing with AC Milan, I will be the king of football!

”No problem, Orthodox Christians won’t do anything to us either. The division of sects is based on people’s thinking. We can just interact with them, seek common ground, and reserve differences. In the new century, of course, there should be a new religious outlook.”

Cardinal Asier Laty said.

”Alright then.”

Capello nodded and said, ”Please, follow us now.”

Cardinal Asier Laty nodded with satisfaction. Finally, he, Asier Laty, could appear before football fans around the world again!

After the match, he intended to have a talk with Calderon.

Real Madrid, being Spain’s most famous club, should not let this heretic Capello be the coach.

A little after 1 PM.

The whole Real Madrid team boarded the special plane.

Huang Kaiwen took out his GBA to play ”Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team.”

Lately, there hadn’t been any good new games, so he could only play old ones.

Despite the slightly poor graphics, its storyline and settings were still quite good.

After more than 5 hours of flying, the entire Real Madrid team landed in Moscow.

Upon reaching the hotel, Huang Kaiwen received a call from Inzaghi.

”Little Kevin, are you ready to experience your first UEFA Champions League final loss?”

Inzaghi arrogantly laughed on the other end of the phone.

”If you can manage that, it would be great.”

Huang Kaiwen laughed and said, ”I really don’t know when I will lose a match.”

”You will find out on the day of the final.”

”That would be best.”

Huang Kaiwen laughed.

Afterwards, he made calls to Kaka and others.

Meeting up before the final was out of the question, but making calls was fine.

When Huang Kaiwen hung up, Missy gave him a provocative look.

Huang Kaiwen checked the time, it was still a little past 8; it was too early.

He asked irritably, ”Is it really appropriate for the Milan president to stay in a hotel reserved for Real Madrid players?”

”What’s wrong with that? Many players’ families are also staying here.”

Missy wrapped her arms around Huang Kaiwen’s neck and coyly said, ”Your little Lily will take a day off to come cheer for you. She won’t miss it.”

”Alright, just don’t take up too much of her time.”

Huang Kaiwen said.

Students should prioritize their studies; once they leave the classroom, they will understand how difficult self-study can be.

”Is that so? She doesn’t seem to think studies should come first. She doesn’t listen to me when I say that.”

Missy whispered in Huang Kaiwen’s ear, her hands starting to rove freely.

Did she think that because she was with the Yellow Ball King, he wouldn’t dare do anything to her?

Huang Kaiwen flipped over and pinned Missy down, and soon the Rauls next door could hear someone continuously knocking on the wall.

...

May 21.

The day of the UEFA Champions League final.

Capello once again opened his backpack to check his things.

Seeing no problems, he took out his treasured Taoist robe and the repaired feather fan.

After meticulously putting on the robe, he sat on a chair to meditate.

Waiting for the departure time.

Meanwhile.

In a conference room at the Kempinski Hotel.

Professor Alfonso from the University of Milan was helping Ancelotti adjust machine number 9.

”Current technology can’t keep up with our ideas, Carlo.”

Professor Alfonso said.

”What’s going on?”

Ancelotti raised an eyebrow and asked.

”Don’t we always talk about the issue of placing receivers in the jerseys?”

Professor Alfonso sighed with his silver hair shining, ”It’s very difficult to avoid affecting the players’ movements. The receivers will increase the weight in certain areas of the jersey. Unless there’s a breakthrough in technology, we can only keep upgrading the Willingness Power enhancement devices without making a revolution in the players’ receivers.”

”Sigh, scientific progress is always difficult. I understand such things.”

Ancelotti sighed.

The mysterious and powerful Willingness Power needed auxiliary devices for the human body to accept it.

Otherwise, his theory could advance even further.

Maybe one day he could make a player a new god, just like Milan’s most popular player now, Kaka.

...

In the afternoon, they arrived at the stadium.

Ancelotti brought Maldini for a press conference, while Capello was accompanied by Raul.

”Carlo, as one of the coaches who knows Kevin best, how are you going to defend against Kevin?”

Before Ancelotti could speak, Capello pulled the microphone closer and said, ”Let me correct you, I am the one who knows Kevin the best. After Kevin transferred to Real Madrid, his statistics improved dramatically. That’s the best proof.”

”Heh.”

Ancelotti raised an eyebrow and sneered, ”Being a coach who only uses one player, making other players secondary, shows there’s something wrong with his tactics. While Kevin didn’t score as many goals in Milan, his on-pitch performance was excellent. He stepped up in crucial games, and more importantly, Kaka and the forwards performed very well.”

”Raul also scored many goals, and so did Cassano and Robben. Real Madrid has never been a team that relies excessively on one player.”

Capello responded unhappily.

”Really? Is that only your belief?”

Ancelotti said disdainfully, ”The whole European press knows that Real Madrid suffers from Kevin dependence, only you don’t know. Kevin hasn’t encountered the best coach at Real Madrid. More goals don’t mean he has been utilized to his fullest potential.”

”You better be careful because a bad coach will give you a defeat.”

Capello snorted coldly.

Raul and Maldini exchanged glances.

Previously, these two maintained a facade of harmony, but now they didn’t even bother.

After the two coaches finished.

The reporters eagerly started asking questions.

Just this segment of trash-talking was enough material for several days of news articles.

It also allowed a revisit to Ancelotti playing under Capello, with the press free to cook up some old stories, which would attract fans again.

”Raul, what kind of team do you think Real Madrid is?”

”Paul, does AC Milan have a way to defend against Kevin?”

”Tell us how it feels to meet Kevin in the final?”

Raul and Maldini exchanged a look, and Maldini raised his chin, signaling Raul to speak first.

Raul laughed and said, ”I can’t change others’ impressions of Real Madrid, but I have my own views regarding both on and off the field. On the field, Kevin is indeed an important player for us, but it doesn’t mean that I have sacrificed something or Guti sacrificed something. Players are supposed to give everything for the win. With the same one-on-one chance, I have a 70% chance of scoring, but for Kevin, it’s 100 percent. In that case, of course, you’ll let the teammate with the better chance take the shot.

As for off the field, Kevin and the coach have said that although Real Madrid players can be impulsive, they aren’t bad guys.

They are just a bunch of passionate young men, each very kind and outstanding. This current team is the best Real Madrid I have ever experienced. I don’t think there’s a team better than us.”

”I do not agree with your statement.”

Maldini pulled the microphone over and smiled, ”You think Real Madrid is the best, but I think Milan is the greatest. It’s something you can’t argue about. The only regret now is that Kevin isn’t here. Milan is missing something without Kevin.”

”Paul, you haven’t explained how to defend against Kevin yet.” An Italian reporter asked again.

Maldini smiled and shook his head, finally saying, ”Kevin is a super genius. Both my father and I believe he is the most talented and strongest player we have ever seen. Defending against Kevin is a tough task, but we are prepared. Compared to other teams, at least we have been teammates with Kevin for a long time and know some of his minor habits, which will help us.”

”So, will you win?”

The reporter continued to ask.

”Things like that you shouldn’t ask me; only God knows.”

Maldini said with a smile.

The two coaches, considering their status, refrained from further attacks.

While the two captains didn’t show much hostility.

After answering a few more questions.

Both sides left the press conference.

Baldini quickly approached Capello and said, ”That bishop brought things again.”

Capello massaged his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

He always brought the Vatican’s treasures with him, and Capello had to worry.

Capello asked, ”What did he bring, the Holy Relic Box or the Shroud?”

”Neither, it’s the Lance of Longinus!”
