Chapter 1137 - 272: San Remo Slap! (Part 4)

"Will San Remo’s grand gift pack once again transform into the San Remo bomb?"

On Real Madrid’s side, the Head Coach looked at his substitute lineup.

Strong or not?

Strong!

Do they have a center-back?

No!

That recent overhead kick clearly needed someone to take responsibility.

Joseph mainly defended Lu Yang, and defended well, even with a header breakout.

So when Lu Yang got up from the ground and ran out of the penalty area, where was Balajana, who was responsible for supporting defense on Lu Yang?

His attention was distracted.

He did take a few steps towards the penalty box, but stopped soon because he thought his teammates could control the football.

When he saw Camihong make a cross, his attention wandered to Talista and Delarre, who were scurrying around.

He completely forgot his initial task.

Of course, in this defense, Joseph had follow-up shortcomings too.

But he already had an outstanding performance; you can’t place the entire defense responsibility on Joseph alone.

"Damn Laveran!" The Real Madrid Head Coach was furious.

If Laveran hadn’t deliberately taken a yellow card last game, resulting in a suspension due to card accumulation.

Laveran could totally play this time.

No... Laveran could have been on the field after halftime.

The Real Madrid Head Coach would rather be one center-back short in the Champions League final than miss one in this match.

That damned Balajana, he’s really killing everyone.

The kid isn’t bad, but... he’s been targeted too harshly in this match.

He’s not a big-hearted player; he needs to be honed slowly.

Originally, he was progressing according to plan and might even become Real Madrid’s locker room leader and defensive line commander in the future.

But...

Now everything is different.

Old Buddha gave you a chance to soar, and if you don’t take off, you’ll just be shelved.

Delarre is a case in point.

After losing the opportunity Real Madrid gave him, staying at Real Madrid would only leave him on the bench, without any chances.

So he left Real Madrid and went to San Remo.

Balajana’s situation is more complicated; he might not be able to leave after this season, even if he wants to.

Because he is half of Old Buddha’s slogan.

Unless Old Buddha admits his route is wrong, Balajana can’t leave Real Madrid.

But...

It’s too hard!

After kick-off, Real Madrid retreated completely!

Dignity?

Gone!

Nobility?

No more!

Big club?

No longer!

Now they are just a team trying to win, that’s it.

A long six-minute back-passing in their own half.

Real Madrid’s way of playing, so un-Real Madrid.

San Remo fans began to mock, but such mockery cannot make waves at the Bernabéu.

San Remo fell into a mad, headless-chicken-like pressing.

The players’ stamina was clearly lacking.

But Sotu had no way.

He couldn’t sacrifice any precious second to make substitutions.

The ones on the field now were already the most capable, most aggressive players of San Remo.

The eighty-ninth minute.

Talista clashed with Sanchis, causing Sanchis to lose the ball.

Bai Zhami won the ball at the first moment and cut inside into the box.

Bam!

The defensive midfielder Joseph, now practically a center-back, appeared in time to intercept Bai Zhami.

Bai Zhami fell in the Real Madrid box.

But this wasn’t a penalty.

Joseph immediately passed the ball to Hector, as per their consistent understanding.

Sure enough, after Hector dribbled a couple of steps, he sent a through ball.

Enriquez received it smoothly in the frontcourt and started advancing down the left wing.

Real Madrid’s counterattack was on!

After the through ball, Hector didn’t stop but charged forward.

Because the entire Bernabéu was screaming, "Kill the game! Kill San Remo! Kill Lu Yang! Kill Morici!"

The fans were very displeased with Lu Yang’s earlier ball fetching and Morici’s Five Finger Mountain.

They wanted to see this team, which never bows and never gives up, die in despair at Bernabéu!

This is the greatest punishment for heresy!

If you come to Bernabéu and don’t make a pilgrimage, you must die!

Because they are, Real Madrid!

Not just Hector, the offensively talented left-back Junior also moved up.

On the other side, Madeira also advanced!

In the blink of an eye, Real Madrid laid siege.

The San Remo goal, teetering on the brink!

If Real Madrid scores one more, the game will really be over!

No one can score two consecutive goals in the remaining less than two minutes of stoppage time.

Unless you’re Belwin, who can slay Hua Xiong while drunk!
