Chapter 579: Are You Guys Pretending to Be Me?

"Beautiful! Wang Feng's defense this time was well-executed. When Garcia received the ball in the front, he quickly moved forward to intercept, like a wall preventing him from penetrating smoothly."

"Then he directly stole the ball through confrontation. The most wonderful step was immediately passing the ball out. He looks like a true defensive midfielder!"

Countless viewers in front of the TV couldn't help but complain in their hearts. Wasn't the Chinese superstar supposed to be playing as a defensive midfielder? Was there still a distinction between real and fake?

Many fans who wanted to see Wang Feng's performance on the attacking end couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. However, they were patient and believed that there would be opportunities throughout the entire match.

Without the Chinese superstar directly organizing and attacking the defense, Real Madrid's offense was like constipation. Morata and Khedira tried several times but failed to create a final shot.

On the contrary, Atletico Madrid also failed to break through Real Madrid's defense. Simeone had targeted the weak defensive midfield of the opponent before the match, but unexpectedly, it was like hitting a wall.

Once again, the Galacticos' attack was fruitless. The ball was intercepted by Koke, and the Bed Sheet Army quickly counterattacked. After several passes, the ball came to Rodriguez on the wing after crossing the midfield.

Facing Essien's interception, the Uruguayan made a Marseille turn to evade and then turned inward.

Wang Feng, who was back defending, had observed Rodriguez receiving the ball in a dangerous area in advance. So, he preemptively occupied the central space to block and intercepted the route for him to pass sideways to the other side.

Helpless, the Uruguayan could only slow down his progress and try to bypass the Chinese superstar in front of him. Wang Feng immediately moved up close, blocking one route with his left foot and reaching out with his right foot to grab the ball.

He almost stole the ball again. At the critical moment, Rodriguez could only choose to pass the ball back, then pass it back to the backcourt. Atletico Madrid's quick counterattack came to naught.

Adrian and Falcao, who had already rushed to the edge of the penalty area to receive the ball, could only stomp in anger. In today's game, the two of them played very frustrated, feeling as if they were exiled. The ball rarely reached their feet through the midfield.

Even more frustrated than the two of them were Garcia and Rodriguez. Their poor performance and frequent mistakes made them almost unable to watch it themselves. They could almost hear Simeone's angry roar in their ears, and they could imagine how strict the Argentine head coach would arrange the training after the match.

This was the current atmosphere within Atletico Madrid. Whoever performed poorly would be punished. It was precisely this devilish method that could deter players and build a tough team.

The devil coach in their eyes couldn't sit still at this moment. Simeone stood on the sidelines constantly directing the forwards to retreat and support, while also demanding to open up the side channels. The path through the middle seemed impassable.

This is unbelievable! Could this precise interception and steal really be done by the same Wang Feng who scored goals like a flood? The Argentine coach even saw the shadow of Makelele in him.

The solidity on the defensive end allowed Real Madrid to invest more energy in the attack. However, both Morata and Higuain were far inferior to Wang Feng in their ability to seize opportunities in front of the goal.

In the 41st minute, Wang Feng cooperated with Ramos to successfully steal the ball from the back. He looked up at the situation in front of him, then kicked a long pass with his right foot, piercing through the defense.

Iguaín started a run as soon as he saw the ball! The ball fell perfectly in front of him, and with a gentle lift of his foot, he calmly unloaded the ball and rushed into the penalty area facing the goalkeeper.

"One-on-one! Iguaín! Shoot!! My god, is his foot covered in soap? How could he slip it out like that?"

"This is outrageous! The Argentine forward missed an excellent one-on-one opportunity. His form is deteriorating, no wonder he is gradually losing his starting position."

"If Wang Feng had taken that shot, it would definitely have gone in. Unfortunately, the precise long pass was created by the Chinese superstar, but he's not a god after all. He can't pass the ball to himself from the back to the front."

"The director gave us a slow-motion replay, let's take a look again. Ramos intercepted and retreated to pass the ball to Falcao, Wang Feng protected the inside, suddenly rushed forward to cooperate with teammates to form a closing-off posture, and took the ball from the confused Colombian forward."

"The Chinese superstar only glanced at the front and immediately kicked a long pass without hesitation. The timing, angle, strength, and landing point were all just right, and even the margin he gave was reasonable, allowing Iguaín to easily meet the ball."

"It's a pity that the final shot went off target. If it had gone in, it would have been a brilliant counterattack goal."

"So far, Wang Feng has delivered a perfect performance in the defensive midfielder position. Why is he so skilled? Could it be that deep in the heart of the striker who terrifies all defenders, there is still a dream of being a defensive gatekeeper, so he practices constantly in private?"

The first half ended in a draw, and Atletico Madrid's dream of a big win failed to materialize. Instead, they were completely at a disadvantage. If Morata or Iguaín had been a little more accurate, they would have conceded goals long ago.

As the second half was about to end, a showcase match would have to go into extra time and penalty shootout, making both teams' players a little impatient, and the rhythm on the field suddenly accelerated.

In the 85th minute, Real Madrid advanced to the frontcourt, and Khedira's long shot was blocked by defender Miranda. The ball was quickly passed to Thiago, who pushed forward, with Marcelo intercepting and defending beside him.

Seeing that he couldn't accelerate, Thiago decisively passed to Rodriguez on the side, who had a relatively large space in front of him, with Wang Feng eight meters away from him.

But the experienced Chinese superstar had already begun to approach and block before he passed the ball. Plus, Rodriguez rushed a bit too fast, perfectly missing the ball. When he turned back to receive it, Wang Feng had already overtaken him and successfully stole the ball.

In an instant transition from defense to offense, the Chinese superstar immediately dribbled diagonally past Silvio, rushing to the edge of the penalty area. At this moment, Morata on his left was also advancing rapidly.

The Spanish defender Silvio, who was blocking in front, did not choose to directly close the distance. Instead, he stood between the two, so that he could cover both sides after entering the penalty area.

However, the Spanish defender seemed to have forgotten that Wang Feng didn't need to enter the penalty area at all. Only to see him stabilize his left foot and draw the bow to shoot with his right foot directly into the sky!

"Swish!" The ball flew into the net!
