I Am Scouted by Real Madrid-Chapter 426 - 64: Chen’s Arc

The atmosphere at Santiago Bernabeu Stadium has gradually become feverish.

They firmly believe the club is on the right path. They watched the ball be passed again and again from Chen Zhong’s foot, and watched Villarreal, who claimed before the match to sink the Galaxy Battleship, running desperately.

From the moment Villarreal initiated their attack at Bernabeu Stadium, trying to sink them, they have been yearning for a grand victory.

No, it should be said that at Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, Real Madrid fans always hope for a resounding victory, regardless of what team they face!

"Real Madrid in possession."

"Passed to Chen Zhong."

"Rossi presses but it has no effect."

"Played a back-heel pass, haha."

"Chen Zhong!"

Villarreal is still maintaining their pressing strategy, but Real Madrid is playing with ease at their home ground.

Garrido’s face looks somewhat serious, but he knows the team has no choice now. He must disrupt Real Madrid’s rhythm, he must!

Can’t let the team be led around like this anymore!

"Chen Zhong’s brilliant pass!"

"C. Ronaldo’s speed on the left is incredibly fast!"

"A brilliant pass to Marcelo."

"Marcelo comes up from behind with a kick that seems like a shot or a pass."

"Goalkeeper Diego Lopez captures the ball."

The Bernabeu fans in the stands feel somewhat regretful. They saw clearly from their high vantage point; just now Negredo, Chen Zhong, and Granero had already set up a perfect attack. If the ball had gotten through, it would have likely resulted in a goal.

However, after their moment of regret, they quickly offered fragmented applause for the team’s beautiful offensive maneuver.

Marcelo raised an eyebrow and shrugged seamlessly, though it wasn’t a complaint; it was somewhat playful and regretful.

From Marcelo’s actions, you can feel that Real Madrid is playing very freely and comfortably now.

Villarreal did not put too much pressure on Real Madrid, which also made many Barcelona fans who turned on their televisions full of expectations feel disappointed, as they were watching with hopes of Villarreal defeating Real Madrid in mind.

You know, that’s the Yellow Submarine, the giant slayer!

Garrido was also a bit angry, and he issued new instructions to the players on the field. By whatever means necessary, they must disrupt Real Madrid’s rhythm!

Don’t let the team be led by Real Madrid!

And this directive was quickly implemented.

At the 17th minute of the match, Real Madrid launched another attack. Chen Zhong had the ball in the middle. Facing Villarreal’s press, he made a long pass to the left, and Cristiano Ronaldo’s quick start was perfectly in sync with Chen Zhong!

This moment made the entire stadium feel a bit surprised!

"Chen Zhong with a long pass from the middle!"

"The perfect coordination of C. Ronaldo and Chen Zhong."

"Chen’s Arc once again sweeps through the sky of Bernabeu."

Chen’s Arc is a name given by some Real Madrid fans or Chen Zhong enthusiasts for his long passes. Compared to the Wolf Arc and Beckham’s Arc, there’s a somewhat teasing tone to it.

After all, Chen Zhong’s long passes rely on people looking for the ball actively, rather than the ball coming to them.

The passing trajectory is also somewhat unpredictable.

Since Kaka got injured, Chen Zhong hasn’t executed a long pass for a while.

This time at Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, Chen Zhong once again demonstrated his "ingenious" footwork, and this scene made many fans supportive of Chen & Kaka feel a bit bittersweet.

Meanwhile, watching Cristiano Ronaldo sprinting with all his might, he quipped: "Dog fetching a frisbee."

Cristiano Ronaldo’s eyes were full of eagerness. He looked up to observe the ball’s trajectory and ultimately rushed to the spot to control the ball.

Through countless days and nights, Chen Zhong executed long pass after long pass, and he sprinted back and forth, repeatedly, just to tell Chen Zhong.

Chen!!!!

It’s not only Kaka who can catch your passes!

There’s also me!

And me!!!

"C. Ronaldo got the ball."

"Dribbling."

"Cuts inside!"

"Charging towards Villarreal’s penalty area!"

"Musacchio!"

Mateo Musacchio is a genius center-back in La Liga, and his characteristics in some respects are similar to Chen Zhong, both possessing excellent positioning, anticipation, and quick defensive abilities.

Although he’s only 180 cm tall, his decisive tackles and excellent physical capacity have made him deliver standout performances on the defense, even earning the trust of the coach.

The coordination between Chen Zhong and C. Ronaldo didn’t "deceive" this Argentine center-back. He had long sensed the danger; when Cristiano Ronaldo turned, the first person he faced was him.

Cristiano Ronaldo first pretended to move to the left, then suddenly cut to the right, intending to use his explosive force to make Musacchio "taste his soup." Musacchio, facing this situation, tugged at Cristiano Ronaldo, ultimately using his body to bring C. Ronaldo down outside the penalty area.

"Beep beep beep~"

The referee blew the whistle, warned Musacchio amid the booing from the crowd, and then awarded Real Madrid a free-kick opportunity.

The Real Madrid fans in the stands protested loudly, shouting: "That’s not fair!"

"If Barcelona is fouled like that, they would definitely issue a card!"
