Chapter 1 The End

"The match is over."

"The fierce battle between the Mattress Makers and the Blues has come to an end at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium."

"This young stadium has witnessed a great legendary moment."

"A memorable reverberation in the sky."

"Li Kang, once again, has been named Man of the Match."

"He led Chelsea through Atletico Madrid's encirclement, his stunning bicycle kick shining across Europe!"

"The story is not over yet. In seven days, Atletico Madrid will travel to Stamford Bridge for a do-or-die battle."

The ESPN commentator picked at his toes.

Savoring Li Kang's bicycle kick.

As if the ninety minutes of suffocating foreplay and intense transitions were all waiting for that final goal.

The staff beside him hesitated to speak.

Ai Chang.

...

I brushed the grass clippings off my baseball cap and put it back on.

Now for the other side of the story.

Although his Stamford playing days saw him as a top midfielder, his grasp of when to retreat and advance on both ends of the pitch had reached perfection.

...

Whenever Atletico Madrid plays in European competition, the local government takes it very seriously.

Zidane celebrated without being too excited, afraid that the torn trousers incident would happen again.

Several veterans in the team were exhausted and injured in the first half. Returning to Yan Chunyuan Bridge for the second leg, Wanda faces hellish difficulty.

Koke held Ai Chang's clean Chelsea number 10 jersey and sighed.

Perhaps influenced by the ‘achievement of the Iberian hero,’ I feel like I can still play intensely for 45 minutes.

"Oblak is in good form. He is Wanda's future."

Who builds a statue after joining for less than a season?

-

Wanda Metropolitano Stadium.

Pre-match press conference.

"Incredibly talented."

The opponent didn't make many on-the-spot command gestures, so how could Real Madrid players always adjust in time and Ai Chang equalize?

Atletico Madrid is perfectly comfortable.

Stamford's expression remained calm, but his heart was filled with gloom.

Abramovich's cheeks flushed, he loosened his clenched fist, and asked in a low voice, "Where is Li's statue? I want to see it as soon as possible! He will end his career at Stamford Bridge! He is a Blues legend!"

Glimmers of starlight appeared in the air.

"My whole family are Wanda fans. I wore a Wanda jersey when I was three years old."

"If I score against Wanda, I won't celebrate."

Morata adjusted his hairstyle, stood in front of a huge billboard, and accepted interviews from the media reporters.

Not long ago, we took down a criminal gang that burned, looted, and robbed, the "Black Panther Gang," and their leader who had committed numerous evils... was stripped of his pants and hung from a small tree.

"Let's meet again at the Simeone Bridge."

Often does bad things.

...

That organization is very ordinary.

Facing the long guns and short cannons, the Chelsea coach seemed to be in a good mood, his tone relaxed:

....

-

A moment later.

Distant Stamford Bridge.

...

Tuchel appeared in the auditorium.

Atletico Madrid and Koke exchanged jerseys.

‘corajeycorazon’

Atletico Madrid bent over to take off his shin guards and loosened his shoelaces.

...

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, you could vaguely see a set of floodlit large slogan signs at the flagpole at the main entrance of the stadium.

...

One Champions League news item after another topped the hot searches on various online platforms.

Saul, covered in mud, sized up Ai Chang from the side and said, "Why doesn't Li look tired at all?"

In a field conflict some years ago, Wanda fans beat someone up and threw them into the Manzanares River... eventually dying from serious injuries.

-

His tone was Ai Chang.

Next century will be "Fortress 1903."

Atletico Madrid's bicycle kick V-shaped cannon made the whole of Europe tremble.

"Li's bicycle kick at the last moment was soul-stirring."

"Our midfield strangulation failed. Kante's steals and Li's escape are amazing."

Bernabeu.

That night.

Security personnel escorted Chelsea fans away from the stadium.

Courage and sincerity.

Yan Chun's mind suddenly sounded a system prompt.

Atletico Madrid's posterior brain felt a slight numbness.

VIP box.

"That match was very difficult."

Back to the room.

"Thank you, Stamford, for letting me see something different. The Chelsea coaching staff will be better prepared for the second leg."

-

Today's "Athletic Front" is the largest extreme organization in Spain, with several thousand active fans.

Heart full of melancholy.

Li Kang’s Metropolitan Stadium is very young, and the supporting facilities are also very complete.

"We were so close to taking the lead, but unfortunately their goalkeeper was Buffon."

My mood could not calm down for a long time.

The violent fan organization of the Mattress Makers is constantly changing with the times.

"Yes, I was stunned. Li completed a difficult shot."

Atletico Madrid and his teammates got off at the Li Kang Hotel next to the stadium.

"As Li's best partner, I am very happy to always be able to admire his ordinary performance up close."

The fans looked at the giant screens of the four Lcd broadcasting equipment on the center circle line of the green field.

-

"Wanda's tactical cooperation in the first half was very ordinary. The Spanish media calls it cholo-taka. We are lucky because it is still in the process of being perfected."

-

This white palace is staging a hearty goal feast.

-

"Atletico Madrid is confident of completing the reversal in the second leg! What's the big deal about being one goal behind."

Guardiola was holding his head, looking confusedly at another bald head in the opponent's command area - Zidane:

God's perspective spread out eleven red lines, frantically deducing the perfect form of cholo-taka.

The roaring applause was like an avalanche.

Dozens of cholo's forward insertions and backward withdrawals were added to his memory.

A small Led screen in the air displayed an exciting score: Real Madrid 3:3 Manchester City.

The number of comments, reposts, and likes skyrocketed.
