I Am Scouted by Real Madrid

Chapter 668: Chapter 87: He’s Getting Anxious!

The Santiago Bernabeu Stadium has become a sea of joy.

Real Madrid fans in the stands are beaming with smiles, saying this is the scene they want to see, with many fans chanting Chen’s name and the word ”Ballon d’Or.”

These words carry their best wishes and expectations.

They hope that soon, Real Madrid will have another Ballon d’Or winner.

”The match continues.”

”Villarreal kicks off.”

”The game has been going for less than 12 minutes, and already there have been 3 goals.”

”It looks like today is going to be a brilliant game!”

”The ball is passed to Cazorla.”

”Cazorla moves to the side.”

”A cross pass.”

”Marco Ruben.”

”Also directly chooses to shoot!”

Villarreal’s performance in this match has also attracted some Chinese capital interest. In earlier years, Villarreal had a ”rising” posture, remembered by many Chinese fans. Plus, their stadium’s translated name ”The Love Song Stadium” aligns with Chinese aesthetics, so they have quite an audience.

Currently, Villarreal’s sponsor is Puma, but Chinese company Xtep is interested in replacing Puma...

Marco Ruben is a bit frustrated, grabbing his hair, as his natural shot just now did not land within the goal frame. The ball was blocked by Cavaleiro’s extended thigh and deflected out of bounds.

Laughter erupted from many Real Madrid fans in the stands, as they thought Marco Ruben was a bit overconfident.

After all, not everyone can shoot from a distance as Chen Zhong does.

In recent years in football, players known for long shots, or heavy cannons, often see their market value soar, such as Wayne Rooney at Manchester United or Cristiano Ronaldo formerly at Manchester United, both known for their spectacular long-range shots.

And Chen Zhong, through his repeated long shots, has gradually become a regular in the ”World Wave Highlights” on the internet.

”Stay steady!” Chen Zhong shouted as he ran back into the penalty area to help with defense.

Villarreal’s corner did not pose much of a threat to Real Madrid’s goal, as Chen Zhong directly cleared the ball away.

”The game has reached the 20th minute.”

”During this time, both teams have had attacks and defenses.”

”Benzema had several opportunities.”

”But either he was offside, or the shot was too straight or too high.”

”He can’t keep wasting chances like this.”

”He can’t keep letting down his teammates.”

After taking the lead, Real Madrid slowed their attack, recovering stamina, trying to control the rhythm while also attempting to help Benzema, caught in a media frenzy, find his form.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka, and Chen Zhong all tried to set up Benzema during this period, but Benzema seemed like a child forced to go to school.

Simultaneously, his self-confidence plummeted upfront, making him hesitant to try many actions.

”Boerha Bailelo!”

”He snatched the ball from Benzema’s feet!”

”What is Benzema doing?”

”Reflecting on life?”

Benzema received a pass again from a teammate, but this time, perhaps he was a bit distracted, as former Real Madrid youth product Boerha Bailelo poked the ball away from behind him.

This player, once Chen Zhong’s teammate, who had just played a backdrop role for Chen Zhong, has always been trying to do something to recover his ”face.”

His relentless running paid off.

”Villarreal’s attack.”

”Boerha Bailelo!”

”Through pass!”

”Real Madrid tried an offside trap!”

”Failed!”

”Villarreal successfully broke the offside trap!”

”That loss from Benzema gave Villarreal a chance on trajectory!”

”Marco Ruben!”

”Can he seize this opportunity?”

This counterattack from Villarreal was unexpected by everyone, as at the moment Benzema took the ball, both flanks and the defense line of Real Madrid were pushing forward.

After Boerha Bailelo intercepted the ball, he immediately sent a through pass.

Real Madrid’s defense line briefly intersected with Marco Ruben. Some players raised their hands to indicate an offside, but the sideline referee showed no gesture.

Marco Ruben successfully broke the offside, charging into the penalty area.

The fans in the stands of Real Madrid stood up to watch the ”god” in front of the goal, Casillas, who recently helped Spain win the World Cup.

This Spain National Team captain, Real Madrid’s goalkeeping ”Door God,” did not hesitate, decisively abandoning the goal to attack.

He charged forward like an unleashed mad dog, intending to tackle Marco Ruben and make a deadly bite.

But Marco Ruben was very calm; facing Casillas’ attack, he performed a calm lob shot.

The ball traced an arc, and Casillas reached out trying to scoop the ball but was just two inches short.

Just two inches!

”Woooo”

”The ball’s in!”

”Marco Ruben!”

”A clever lobbed one-on-one finish!”

”Casillas couldn’t stop it.”

”2:2”

”The teams are back on equal footing!”

Visiting Villarreal fans raised their hands high, celebrating loudly, while Real Madrid fans looked at the replay on the electronic screen, feeling a bit emo.
