Chapter 2129 - 550: His Majesty the Emperor’s Hot Search
The aggregate score of 10:4.
Completely stunned Arsenal.
The professor kept adjusting by the sidelines, but it didn’t change the disadvantage in the game.
Fortunately, Guardiola showed some ethics by not substituting Messi for Huang Kaiwen but using Rakitic instead.
Otherwise, who knows what the match would have turned into today.
In the end, Arsenal played well in the first half at San Siro, losing 5:3 away, with an aggregate score of 11:4.
At the post-match press conference.
Guardiola highly praised Arsenal’s performance, saying, "Today Arsenal caused us quite a lot of trouble, this is Arsenal’s true strength. The team didn’t execute enough tactically, it was Kevin who stabilized the situation for us. Winning today’s match, I can only say it was due to Kevin’s individual performance."
"What about Inzaghi?"
A reporter asked.
Guardiola smiled and said, "Inzaghi still showed the qualities of a top striker, such a player is a role model for young players, he is our Solskjaer."
In fact, he didn’t think Inzaghi’s goals were that spectacular.
But it had to be said like this.
Wenger nodded with a smile and said, "There are no excuses for losing, but the gap between us and AC Milan is not that big. At one point I almost signed Kevin, Kevin was also willing to play for Arsenal, but unfortunately, we couldn’t offer him such a high salary. It’s said Abramovich even gave Kevin 10 cars and a yacht, that’s beyond the realm of football. I’m satisfied with my players’ performance, but there are always things in the world that no matter how hard you try, can’t be changed."
"Arsene, is there anything you want to do when you go back?"
A UK reporter asked.
Wenger shook his head and said, "Life goes on, it’s just a game. I know you like writing about me, someone even said I deflated Mourinho’s car tires. In fact, I wouldn’t do such things, I’ll prepare for the next match. Arsenal still has the possibility to compete for the Premier League title, we will strive for it."
"Is today’s match also something you could compete for?"
The reporter pressed on.
Wenger nodded and said, "Arsenal once beat Standard Liège 7:0 away, and back then, Standard Liège was also very strong, so there is no such thing as destiny on the football field. Today we fought for victory, but we couldn’t win."
After saying that, Wenger stood up, nodded to Guardiola, and left.
Huang Kaiwen got home almost at midnight.
That was because the match was at home.
Going upstairs, he saw Lily and the young lady already asleep, Huang Kaiwen sat in the living room to watch some TV.
"Master, your juice."
Albert said while holding a tray.
"You haven’t slept yet? I thought you were already asleep."
Huang Kaiwen said with a smile, "Did I wake you up?"
"No, it was because an editor from the Milan Sports Newspaper called me just now."
Albert said.
"Was there something?"
Huang Kaiwen asked.
He was very familiar with Albert, if there wasn’t anything, the old butler wouldn’t mention it specifically.
"He said Inzaghi reached out through a friend, hoping tomorrow’s newspaper could highlight his positive image." The old butler said with a smile.
Huang Kaiwen was slightly stunned.
Then shook his head with a smile and wry acknowledgment.
Indeed, it’s the kind of thing His Majesty would do.
Having just scored a haul, then going to buy trending topics.
No wonder they had to call the old butler.
There’s always a priority, if Inzaghi is the main focus, then Huang Ball King who assisted him will surely become the supporting role.
Huang Kaiwen waved his hand with a smile and said, "Since Filippo paid for it, the headline belongs to him, I have no objection."
After all, it’s 10 million in hand, let Inzaghi have the front page.
"Understood, Master."
Albert turned around and left.
The next morning, Huang Kaiwen eagerly sat at the dining table.
The old butler placed the newspaper before him.
Huang Kaiwen opened it and almost burst out laughing.
The "Milan Sports Newspaper" front page was a large photo of Inzaghi, but what they printed was a photo of Huang Ball King throwing Inzaghi over his shoulder, probably an effort to appease Huang Ball King.
Even disregarding the influence.
The treatment for temporary and long-term clients is still different.
The "Milan Sports Newspaper" wrote: "Filippo Inzaghi stood firm at a critical moment, successfully using goals to thwart Arsenal’s ambition for promotion, his tally in the European matches has reached 59, making him the Italian with the most goals in UEFA Champions League history, it’s an honor for Italy. Kevin’s 4 assists further illustrate that Filippo Inzaghi has a unique charm, letting Kevin willingly deliver assists for him. In the following matches, Guardiola should consider letting Inzaghi play more in the UEFA Champions League."
Damn.
Huang the Ball King thought Inzaghi just wanted some spotlight.
Unexpectedly, he even demanded a starting place in European matches.
Guardiola will probably have a headache seeing the news.
Damn it.
Inzaghi is playing the flexible nationality card to the fullest extent.
Previously he was the Emperor of Rome, now to coerce Italian fans, he’s an Italian again, no wonder so many people like the flexible nationality, it’s truly useful at critical moments.
"Corriere dello Sport": "The UEFA Champions League semifinals have all emerged, Milan, Chelsea, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, teams from four countries will clash, Kevin’s chances to meet his old club are quite high."
