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

Chapter 2140: Chapter 552: God of Gamblers 1999 (Part 2)

The Chelsea players watching laughed loudly, even Ashley Cole leaned against the wall.

This is why he got divorced, so he can play however he wants after the divorce.

”Kevin, you need to control it, don’t damage the ball.”

Cech suddenly spoke up.

”Don’t damage the ball or don’t hurt you?”

Huang Kaiwen asked.

”It’s about the same, I don’t want to be taken directly to the hospital by an ambulance.” Cech sighed and said, ”Experiencing that once is enough.”

”Don’t worry buddy, I’ll definitely ensure your safety.”

Huang Kaiwen said with a smile.

Cech finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He had been worried for several days.

Huntelaar was about to speak when the referee reminded both teams to enter the field.

Guardiola and the coaching staff walked at the back.

Walking out of the tunnel, seeing Ancelotti, he gracefully extended his hand and said, ”Hope today will be a wonderful match.”

”It certainly will.”

Ancelotti raised an eyebrow and said.

Guardiola looked toward the sidelines, Ancelotti’s machine was very eye-catching.

Ancelotti nonchalantly said, ”Truth is only grasped by a few people, I hope you can be one of them.”

”Perhaps.” Guardiola nodded and said.

Man, these football coaches are crazier than each other.

Luckily, he believes in science, believes in equivalent exchange.

Returning to the coaching bench, Guardiola immediately said, ”Prepare the stuff, we’re in for a tough battle today.”

”Is it that thing?”

Domenec Torrent asked.

”Yes, use that!”

Guardiola nodded and said.

Torrent immediately turned around to prepare.

During the time when manpower was short, Guardiola had already set his sights on the assistant coach.

Torrent, being a good friend of his, easily accepted Guardiola’s theory.

Gold, besides being scarce, has industrial value.

But thousands of years ago, people wouldn’t have used gold to make chips; their desire for gold was clearly rooted in their DNA, a longing for it that originated in their blood.

Torrent opened a velvet bag embedded with gems.

Took out a stone as red as blood.

This is the legendary Philosopher’s Stone that can turn stone into gold.

Guardiola believed that the Philosopher’s Stone should have a greater impact on people than gold.

He hoped to use this method to prevent Huang Kaiwen from getting injured.

Tassotti, who was adjusting the machine, noticed the commotion at the home team’s bench and went to find Ancelotti’s notebook without waiting for Ancelotti to speak.

Ancelotti reminded him, ”22 pages from the end, black magic defense.”

”Don’t worry, Carlo.”

The rivalry between the coaching staffs drew quite a few gazes.

The director frequently cut to shots of both coaching benches.

”Heh, back when it was Capello vs. Ancelotti, now it’s Guardiola vs. Ancelotti. These European top managers each have a few tricks up their sleeves.”

”That’s true, but the theme song has ended, so let’s check both teams’ starting lineups.”

AC Milan 4-3-3 with double defensive midfielders:

Goalkeeper: Buffon,

Defenders: Antonini, Godin, Sven Bender, Zambrotta,

Midfielders: Rakitic, Van Bommel, Gattuso,

Forwards: Huang Kaiwen, van Persie, Torres.

Chelsea 4-3-3 with double defensive midfielders:

Goalkeeper: Cech,

Defenders: Ashley Cole, Hummels, Terry, Bosingwa,

Midfielders: Mikel, Modric, Mereiles,

Forwards: Bale, Drogba, Huntelaar.

”Messi is apparently not fully recovered yet, so Guardiola has placed him on the bench.”

”Indeed, AC Milan’s defense is lacking severely, with Ramos still suspended, Nesta not recovered, and Thiago Silva having made previous mistakes, so today Guardiola is using Godin and Bender Jr. combination.”

”I’ve noticed something interesting, apart from Mereiles, all Chelsea players were once Huang Kaiwen’s teammates.”

”Heh, true enough, and it shows Chelsea’s previous lineup was excellent, even after two seasons, these players still maintain good form.”

After Huang Kaiwen and Terry exchanged team flags.

Terry said, ”Do I get to choose first?”

”Whatever.”

”I’ll take heads.” Terry quickly said.

Main referee Bruche tossed the coin and covered it, revealing the result with a blank expression, ”Tails.”

”We’ll choose the side.”

Huang Kaiwen shrugged and said.

Terry gestured at him, clearly displeased about losing the coin toss.

Both teams’ players returned to their respective halves to make final preparations.

In front of Huang Kaiwen was Huntelaar.

Huntelaar’s face was full of smiles.

Although van Persie winning the UEFA Champions League didn’t make him very happy, Huntelaar also knew it wasn’t Huang Kaiwen’s fault.

There’s still a long career ahead; you never know who will team up with whom in the future.

7:45 PM.

German referee Bruche blew the whistle to start the match.

Chelsea kicked off with a back pass.

Bale, after receiving the ball, was immediately pressed by Torres.

Fans didn’t find the clash between the two speedsters as thrilling as they’d imagined.

Bale didn’t hold the ball much, immediately passing back to Modric.

Modric controlled the situation with a flick of his right foot, van Persie quickly pressed.

But Modric wasn’t flustered.

He turned, held his position, and passed to the oncoming Ashley Cole.

Ashley Cole took the ball forward two steps and saw Torres.

Torres sprinted towards Cole, who accelerated past Torres with the ball.
