CHAPTER 1068: 0344 HOW BAD GUYS ARE MADE (SUBSCRIPTION REQUESTED)

"Rafa, that guy’s at it again."

Ayerstaren nervously glanced at Boas in front of the Chelsea coaching bench.

Boas clenched his fists.

Standing by the sidelines, muttering continuously; although his eyes were shut, his face remained tense.

Such lengthy chanting and mysterious behavior inevitably made one think of witchcraft.

"Alright."

Benitez stopped his work, placed the toads back, and sighed, saying, "Looks like we’ll have to let Eugenie and Napoleon III play."

These were a pair of frogs he spotted while dining at a French restaurant some time ago.

Since he first saw them, Benitez felt an immense magic power.

However, they haven’t been trained yet, and Benitez didn’t want them to play too early.

Training frogs is much harder than training players.

"Rafa, are you really letting them out?"

Ayerstaren asked more nervously.

Benitez and he just held the container of "Napoleon" and "Eugenie," grumbling about traffic.

A chain collision happened right in front of them.

If an uncontrollable magical creature were to appear in a stadium with over 50,000 people, it could cause severe consequences.

Benitez looked onto the field.

Huang Kaiwen was skillfully evading Carragher with the ball, although this attack was eventually resolved by Reina.

Still, it made Benitez quite tense.

He ultimately nodded and said, "It’s the only way. I believe with my mastery of witchcraft, nothing too bad should happen."

"But you yourself..."

Ayerstaren said, somewhat worried.

"I’m fine."

Benitez waved his hand dismissively with a smile.

After Tom and Jerry performed last time, he was sick for a few days.

Now he’s dealing with a stronger magical creature; even Benitez isn’t sure about what will happen next.

But facing Chelsea, a strong and shameless team using witchcraft, how could he not strike back?

Seeing Benitez’s insistence.

Ayerstaren had no choice but to open his backpack and take out a fancy breeding box.

After opening the box, two bullfrogs revealed their true forms.

These were two green frogs over 10 cm long.

Once the box was open, they cautiously observed the surroundings.

Bullfrogs prefer warm and quiet climates, and the stadium environment was uncomfortable for them.

After a brief inspection, the frogs made some inexplicable sounds.

While Benitez prepared the ritual, Ayerstaren went behind the coaching bench and stealthily lit the "magic potion."

This was tobacco bought from indigenous Americans, crucial supporting material.

After a long time of practice, they were skilled at casting spells using toads.

Seeing Benitez unharmed by "Eugenie" and "Napoleon III," Ayerstaren breathed a sigh of relief.

If it were "Eugenie" and "Napoleon III’s" offspring, the "Algerian Prince," Ayerstaren would avoid it as far as possible; that bullfrog was even more powerful and uncontrollable than its parents.

Boas noticed the slow-rising smoke behind the Liverpool coaching bench, feeling it was still not safe.

After touching the ring on his right hand a couple of times, he started casting "Goddess of Dawn’s Forgiveness" again.

The actions on the field were intense, but the sidelines were just as eventful.

Broadcaster cameras continually focused on the sidelines, giving fans worldwide a visual feast.

The English FA turned a blind eye to these happenings.

Some even suggested adding witchcraft courses to coaching training programs, even if ineffective, they’d increase viewership—but it was dismissed as too absurd.

Private actions by coaches could be understood.

The English FA’s coaching programs playing with this, Vatican might publicly resist the Premier League.

Over ten minutes into the game.

Although neither side had scored, Liverpool’s defense already felt immense pressure.

Fack!

Carragher felt like grabbing Huntelaar by the collar, asking if he had any self-respect.

You nearly averaged a goal per game in the Dutch league; now at Chelsea, you’re acting like a dog?

Damn it, even a clear solo shot is stopped, watched, and passed back.

With Mourinho injured, did Chelsea go wild?

It’s ridiculous to think about, returning a certain goal to a covered Huang Kaiwen.

Even though Huang Kaiwen’s shot from outside the box was high quality, it still didn’t succeed.

From a sure goal to none, no coach would allow that!

Thanks to Huntelaar’s choice, they didn’t concede.

Carragher didn’t know whether to be happy or sad.

Reina tossed the ball again; Carragher immediately slanted a pass to De Jong.

De Jong nudged with his right foot and quickly handed it to Gerrard.

Both Huang Kaiwen and Huntelaar were fast, and today they dared not hold the ball lightly at the back.

As a former teammate of Huang Kaiwen, Gerrard knew how strong Huang Kaiwen’s intercepting capability was.

Gerrard received the ball and moved forward; he, as Liverpool’s orchestrator, met Ballack and Mikel’s pressure just after crossing midfield.

He tried dribbling with a right-foot hook move, Mikel followed him, while Ballack stayed put.

This blocked his way entirely, Gerrard quickly pulled back with his right foot, turned, and passed.

Ballack extended his left foot and deflected the ball out of bounds.

"Now Liverpool’s dilemma is the absence of Xabi Alonso; Gerrard is easily marked, hehe."

"Indeed, Chelsea’s two defensive midfielders are solely focused on Gerrard today. Liverpool’s forwards lack impact; all three strikers have drawbacks: Kuyt isn’t fast enough, Benayoun isn’t strong enough. Chelsea’s defense doesn’t need protection from the midfielders, allowing two of them to focus on Gerrard."
