Chapter 353 Calderon’s Prelude

4 month 22 day.

Su Changwei arrived at Madrid International Airport with the team.

This is the city where he has lived for 4 years.

He took a deep breath and turned to ask his teammates:

"Hey, Richie, are you particularly excited to return to this city and face a familiar opponent?"

Kaká may have recalled the depressed years of playing for Real Madrid, and lowered his eyelids slightly, but he soon regained his smile:

"Of course, every time I play against a team from Madrid, I am very motivated!"

A big bald man squeezed behind them, it was Fabinho who had played for Real Madrid for one season...

The Brazilian touched his bald head and said angrily:

"Actually, I want to play Real Madrid more!"

"In the whole season, they only gave me one chance to play!"

Due to the red card and suspension of right back Abate, Fabinho overcame Bonera and became the No. 1 choice for this position.

Su Changwei smiled at him:

"Then you have to save a little bit of your strength. What if you can't wait to fight alongside me?"

Fabinho was stunned for a moment:
"What do you mean?"

"The coach told me, I will definitely start in tomorrow's game!"

Kaka reached out and rubbed the little fellow’s head and explained for him:
"It's because Ah Wei's condition has been so bad recently that he can only sit on the bench!"

Fabinho's eyes widened, as if he had heard some shocking joke:

"He...is in too bad a state?"

Su Changwei laughed:
"Our team has always respected fair competition. Even I have to abide by this rule!"

Fabinho allowed Kaka to touch his head wantonly:
"I don't understand, but I'm shocked!"
-
"Radio Zhuang, TV Station, dear viewers, what you are watching now is the first leg of the semi-finals between Atletico Madrid and AC Milan in the UEFA Champions League in the 2013-14 season..."

Commentator Shen Fangjian's mood was not particularly high.

[Why is Su Changwei sitting on the bench when it’s my turn to commentate? 】

[In the previous two rounds of the league, the opponents were pitifully weak, and he only played two halves. There shouldn't be any physical crisis, right? 】

[Recently... I haven't heard that he is addicted to foreign languages ​​​​or yoga! 】
-
"This bastard...is really a substitute?!"

"He looks down on me?"

Simone looked a little dissatisfied, but his body honestly relaxed.

AC Milan with Su Changwei on the court and Milan without him are two completely different teams.

To be honest, if Su Changwei can maintain his peak condition and play for 90 minutes, Simeone has no confidence at all to win this game...

But now, after seeing Su Changwei sitting on the bench, Simeone feels that he can do it again!
[Whether this guy is in poor condition or has other conspiracies, this is definitely our opportunity! 】
-
"Drip~~~"

Perhaps because they felt slighted by their opponents, or perhaps because they felt the coach's surging mood, Atletico quickly took the initiative after the start.

They took the lead in just 149 seconds. Koke sent a cross from the right, and the unguarded Diego Costa volleyed from the edge of the penalty area and scored!

1: 0!

Atletico Madrid gets off to a fantastic start!

The entire Calderon Stadium burst into cheers!

Simeone almost knelt down on the sidelines to celebrate!

Allegri, who was drinking water, threw away the water bottle in his hand:
"Damn it, aren't Zapata and Mex awake?!"

He glanced at Su Changwei subconsciously:

"Awei... isn't this a script?"

Although he is far away in Italy, he once heard a story:
In the distant land of the East, a team boss who had been treated unfairly, in order to prove his status in the team to the fans, mobilized all his teammates to act with him!Facing mediocre opponents, their defense conceded goals one after another, which was unbearable to watch.

The head coach had to send him out, and the whole team suddenly took on a new look and beat their opponents!

Allegri couldn't help but reflect:
【Recently...have I done anything wrong? 】

[Being a substitute... He proposed it himself! 】

Seeing that the head coach was suspicious, Su Changwei quickly abdicated his responsibility:
"This has nothing to do with me! That Diego Costa, despite his appearance, is not weak at all!"
-
AC Milan, which fell behind at the start, quickly adjusted. After all, they have experienced players such as Drogba, Kaká and Mexes in their team.

However, Atletico Madrid, which had the advantage of home court, defended its core area watertight. Milan launched many offensives, but could only frequently hit the wall outside the penalty area.

It wasn't until the 27th minute that Milan had a chance.

Fabinho instigated a long pass from the right. Kaka, who suddenly accelerated, crossed from behind Drogba and headed towards the goal from the left side of the small penalty area. The ball hit Juan Fran's calf and refracted into the net!

1:1, through the connection between two Brazilian players, Milan equalized the score! -
"This guy is in his 30s, right? Why is his recent condition better than in previous years?"

Seedorf, who was sitting in the first row, smiled and joked:
"Don't Brazilian players fall off a cliff once they reach 30?"

Su Changwei raised the corners of his mouth slightly. He would not tell this new assistant coach that he spent a full 20 points of luck on Brother Kazi!
Today is April 4, and yesterday was Kaka’s 23nd birthday!
-
Atletico Madrid is obviously not willing to give Kaká a birthday party, and they are still launching a tenacious counterattack.

In the 33rd minute, Cork's free kick went straight in. Godin poked the ball in the melee and the ball slid out!

Abbiati broke into a cold sweat and loudly reminded several defenders to cheer up.

Zapata and Mexes also gradually focused their attention, and the defense became obviously more compact.

But the right wing that Fabinho is responsible for guarding has still become the main target of Atletico Madrid's offense.

Compared to Abate's speed, Fabinho's pace seems much slower, especially when turning around to catch up.

That is to say, Atletico Madrid lacks a sprinter, otherwise he may not last until halftime and will be beaten by the opponent!
Five minutes later, Atletico Madrid once again attacked Fabinho, but this time Ambrosini predicted their intentions and put the defense in place in advance, accurately stopping the opponent's offensive and taking the opportunity to launch a counterattack.

De Bruyne dribbled the ball across the center line and sent a through ball. Drogba caught up with the pass at the top of the penalty area and volleyed, but the tall and long-armed Courtois saved the ball on the goal line!
Courtois was not excited about his wonderful save, and Milan's second wave of offense followed.

The rebounded ball was grabbed by Shalawi on the left. Facing Juan Fran, he made a fake pass and knocked the ball back to Kaká in the center!

This is the area where Kaka has the highest success rate for long-range shots. Miranda, the central defender from Brazil, rushed over, but his compatriot shot a fake shot. Kaka flicked his ankle and hit him directly. Crotch, dribbling the ball into the penalty area, and then pushing the ball lightly from the edge of the small penalty area!
This time Courtois' height became a disadvantage. Before he could get down to save, the ball slipped between his two long legs!
2: 1!

AC Milan took the lead in the 40th minute! -
The score of 2:1 was maintained until the halftime break. Milan players surrounded Kaká, who scored twice, and returned to the locker room talking and laughing.

As a substitute, Su Changwei came off the field to warm up with Pazzini, Montolivo, Acerbi, Alonso and others.

As soon as he stepped onto the turf of the Calderon Stadium, there was a huge boo from the stands!

"Why are you booing me? These idiots!"

Su Changwei curled his lips dissatisfiedly:
"I only played for half a season at Real Madrid, and I only scored one goal against them!"

Acerbi smiled:
"Are they too naive to provoke you in such a low-level way?"

Listening to the increasingly outrageous curses in the stands, Su Changwei took a deep breath:
"No, they have succeeded!"
-
After a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

Atletico Madrid has obviously stepped up its pressure on Kaká. If the Brazilian wants to start easily, the difficulty has gone up to another level.

In the 53rd minute, Kaka, who had no chance to shoot, split the ball in the middle. Shalawi made a pass from the left. Drogba was interfered with and failed to fight, but Godin pushed the ball high.

Kaka was about to fight for the spot, but Atletico Madrid captain Gabi was stuck in his position.

Atletico Madrid launched a counterattack. Felipe ate Fabinho alive on the wing and found Mario Suarez with an inverted triangle pass. The latter hit his chest and transferred the ball to Alejandro on the other side. In front of Dar Turan!
The Turkish midfielder did not pass and penetrate, but directly hit the right side of the penalty area with an outside instep shot!

Zapata blocked the shot bravely, but failed to stop it. Abbiati was unable to make a save and watched the ball fly into the net from the closest distance!
2: 2!

The Sheets Army equalized the score!
-
"Tsk!"

Seeing Shalawi once again staying outside the penalty area, Su Changwei couldn't sit still.

Allegri also stood up:
"Awe, did you hear those Atletico Madrid fans singing?"

"I can't stand listening to it anyway!"

"Give you 30 minutes, shut them up quickly!"
