CHAPTER 1171: CHAPTER 364: MY HEART, MY BREATH, ALL IN MY SONG

Boas covered his face while standing on the sidelines.

Exhausted!

Mourinho’s injury wasn’t properly treated, and paired with his careless eating habits, it caused problems.

The team doctor was still holding an ice pack to cool the injury.

Boas felt that Mourinho might just want to kill someone.

As one of the last remaining wizards in the world, why should he face such situations?

At this moment.

Boas finally understood why there were fewer and fewer wizards.

Because of worldly influences, it’s hard for people to concentrate on practicing magic.

And magic indeed requires focus, and it also requires a lot of money. If you’re not worldly, it’s hard to have so much money to practice magic.

Boas suspected, besides himself.

The other wizards were probably from those wealthy families, as only such financial power could support their magic practice.

Watching Mourinho being carried away on a stretcher, Boas shook his head and stood by the sidelines.

Sometimes, he really felt that the position of Chelsea’s head coach might be cursed.

Otherwise, why would so many things happen this season?

Seeing Faria in a hurry, Boas showed a mocking smile.

That guy can’t resist the power of the curse; is he in such a hurry to die?

Sometimes Boas also felt a bit lonely, as even the closest people couldn’t understand everything he did.

Now he finally understood why in those comics he read as a child, superheroes often wanted to return to ordinary lives.

Being misunderstood might just be the price of being a hero.

Juventus restarted the game.

It was still their pack tactic.

Every time the midfielder on the side carried the ball, the wing-back would push forward as well to ensure a local numerical advantage.

This was Ranieri’s tactic designed for strong teams based on Juventus’s personnel.

Ranieri, nicknamed "The Tinkerman," was very good at utilizing his players smartly.

Nedved charged forward with the ball, coordinating with Grygera to get past Huang Kaiwen, then transferred to the left again.

However, this time the pass was read by Essien. Although Essien couldn’t intercept, he disturbed Mendes enough that the ball just went out of bounds.

"Heh heh, both sides are using three midfielders today, and Chelsea’s trio is clearly performing better."

"Yes, Coach Zhang is right, it’s mainly about physical confrontation and stamina. Although veteran Nedved still maintains a high level, his decline is visible to the naked eye. Marchisio is young and inexperienced, and Mendes lacks confrontation ability and coverage... In contrast, Chelsea, with Ramos, Mikel, and Essien, are all very capable runners, not bad offensively, and quite good defensively. Such a trio, without injuries, would be very hard to deal with."

"Belletti throws an out-of-bounds ball to Essien, who passes to Mikel. Mikel quickly delivers to the left... Oops, the passing intention was too obvious, and the ball was intercepted by Nedved several meters before reaching Huang Kaiwen. A direct long pass into the box, Terry missed the header! Oh no, Iaquinta was a step too slow, allowing Cech to catch the ball."

"Cech, even after an injury, is still one of the best goalkeepers. Look at his positioning; it’s particularly sensible, which is why he rarely seems to make miraculous saves. Some goalkeepers don’t pre-adjust their positions, remaining stationary, so every save looks extreme, but this also leads to conceding goals that shouldn’t have happened, heh heh."

"Yes, just like Bian Que’s second brother would resolve a situation before it became dangerous, so he didn’t seem particularly outstanding."

"Right, that’s the principle, heh heh. To be victorious in battle without flaunting great achievements; if a goalkeeper frequently makes extreme-looking saves, it’s often due to his own issues, covered up by reaction speed."

After Cech caught the ball, he couldn’t be bothered to speak to Terry.

Because he knew, Terry was in a period of fatigue now, not something that could be resolved immediately. When Terry’s mental and physical issues were resolved, the world-class defender would return.

Cech threw the ball to the right.

Belletti carried the ball forward quickly.

Today, Juventus didn’t really target him defensively, almost ignoring him.

After all, Ashley Cole was indeed more threatening on the left, along with Ramos and Huang Kaiwen on that side.

In comparison, his and Mata’s right side, although technically sound, did lack a lot in terms of physical confrontation and impact.

Juventus, naturally, wouldn’t focus their defense on this side.

Mendes only came up to challenge when Belletti brought the ball near the midfield line.

Belletti quickly delivered a lob pass forward.

Mata’s touch was still world-class, easily controlling the ball with his feet.

Not giving Molinaro a chance to tackle, Mata immediately made a horizontal pass.

As Huntelaar retreated, he wanted to pass to Huang Kaiwen, but seeing too many people around him, he could only pass back to the advancing Ramos.

Ramos charged forward with the ball quickly, forcing Nedved to give up on Huang Kaiwen and move towards Ramos.

Opportunity!

Ramos’s eyes lit up, his mind envisioning three ways to pass the ball to Huang Kaiwen.

Nedved advanced, stretching his foot. Ramos quickly turned sideways, lightly nudging the ball forward with a slight bump with his arm, quickly followed by a lob pass.

Pop—

The ball was headed towards the front of the penalty area.

Huang Kaiwen, running, powered up his right foot, leapt into the air, and nudged the ball into the penalty area with his left calf.

Landing, he quickly decelerated and sprinted forward, leaving Grygera behind.
