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

Chapter 1653: Chapter 454: Inzaghi: Super Double

”Yes, today is Huang Kaiwen’s first UEFA Champions League match since returning to AC Milan. We’re also curious about his performance. During training, he wore the captain’s armband, and I’m sure many fans have guessed that Huang Kaiwen will start today.”

”The AC Milan fans in the stands are extremely excited. Our reporter in Italy previously interviewed local fans, and they all expressed great happiness about Huang Kaiwen’s return. This season, AC Milan’s tickets are far more in demand than last season. Also, I’m sure everyone has noticed that AC Milan has been frequently announcing new sponsorship deals, so they definitely have ample funds for new signings.”

”Yes, don’t just look at Hummels and Villa, both valued at 40 million British Pounds and 40 million Euros respectively, making them the top-priced players this summer. But the money for Huang Kaiwen and Ramos’s contract buyouts was actually paid by AC Milan. After spending so much money, they still signed players like Rakitic. AC Milan still claims to have sufficient funds for new signings, which shows the confidence of a Serie A powerhouse.”

”Alright, both teams have returned to the tunnel. Let’s take a look at the line-ups.”

AC Milan 433 single attacking midfielder:

Goalkeeper: Buffon,

Defenders: Zambrotta, Thiago Silva, Nesta, Ramos,

Midfielders: Ambrosini, Rakitic, Pirlo,

Forwards: Huang Kaiwen, Inzaghi, Kaka.

Auxerre 433 single attacking midfielder:

Goalkeeper: Soran,

Defenders: Angbal, Koulibaly, Grishin, Minio,

Midfielders: Pedretti, Endiga, Ranjir,

Forwards: Perrin, Bielsa, Olic.

”It’s clear that Guardiola is taking this match quite seriously, reverting to a four-defender formation.”

”Yes, but he’s arranged Kaka on the flank. Ancelotti did something similar before, and the results were pretty good. We’ll see if Kaka can perform well within Guardiola’s tactics.”

”Inzaghi starting is quite a surprise. We all know about Ibrahimovic’s injury, but Torres’s health should be fine. Perhaps Guardiola wants Inzaghi to continue scoring in the Champions League.”

”Maybe, haha. This Auxerre striker is also called Olic, but he’s not the Bayern striker we know, just a coincidence with the same name. Oh, and he’s Croatian too.”

Huang Kaiwen noticed the two familiar names.

He originally wanted to teach Koulibaly a lesson.

But seeing him in person, he realized that this Koulibaly was not the one he knew.

There are fewer people with the same surname as Olic, since Croatians often have surnames derived from their father’s name plus ’ic’.

For two people named Olic to both become players in Europe’s top leagues is quite rare; Croatia rarely has players with the same surname in their national team, because their surname principles are completely different from other countries.

But in Africa, there really are many players with the same surname.

And you can often tell something about a player’s beliefs from their name.

Since it’s not the Koulibaly whom the Yellow Ball King knows, Huang Kaiwen isn’t interested in beating the weaker team too much.

With such important people still watching, he has to be professional as an accomplice.

Today, not only does he need to help his boss win, but he also needs to ensure his boss achieves impressive stats.

Huang Kaiwen won the coin toss and selected the field.

At 7:45 in the evening, the referee blew the whistle to start the entire match.

Bielsa gave the ball to the right to Olic right from the start. Olic obviously wanted to go past Huang Kaiwen face to face.

Huang Kaiwen was already advancing, and he purposefully brought the ball to Huang Kaiwen.

Huang Kaiwen almost laughed out of anger.

If it weren’t for sharing the name with the Bayern player, he wouldn’t even have noticed Olic.

Did people really think that the Yellow Ball King only knows how to attack?

Huang Kaiwen didn’t even shift his center of gravity, casually glancing over.

Prepared and ready.

Olic approached Huang Kaiwen carefully, taking small steps.

Just as he was about to reach Huang Kaiwen’s side, Huang Kaiwen suddenly moved.

Snap—

Huang Kaiwen’s tremendous burst of speed was on full display, as he stretched out his right foot, instantly poking the ball to Olic’s back side.

Olic quickly turned around, but Huang Kaiwen’s starting speed was far faster than he expected.

Before Olic even completed his turn, Huang Kaiwen had already sprinted past him.

Inzaghi immediately ran forward, knowing that these weaklings couldn’t stop Huang Kaiwen.

Ranjir cursed under his breath, rushing toward the ball to assist Endiga in defense.

Before the two could complete their encirclement, Huang Kaiwen had already picked up the ball and slipped between them.

Even though Auxerre’s two players were closer to the ball, Huang Kaiwen got to it first, successfully using his speed to get through.

Such a direct display brought a powerful visual impact.

The San Siro Stadium erupted with thunderous cheers.

”Kevin!”

”Kevin!”

”Kevin!”

Huang Kaiwen advanced a few steps, already close to the opponent’s big penalty area.

Koulibaly saw Huang Kaiwen approaching the right flank. With Angbal marking Kaka, Koulibaly had no choice but to head toward Huang Kaiwen.

Snap—

Huang Kaiwen instantaneously sent a through ball, with the ball quickly rolling past Koulibaly, who was rushing to intercept, straight toward the middle of the penalty area.

Inzaghi, already in motion, charged in from the center with a decisive shot.

Meanwhile, Grishin raised his arm to signal offside, but the referee ignored him.

Auxerre’s goalkeeper Soran dove to the side, narrowly blocking the ball to the baseline.

”My goodness, a shot right at the start!”

”Yes, mainly because Olic was too careless. Other players avoid Huang Kaiwen, yet he actively sought him out.”
