Green Field Eunuch

Chapter 93 I know how to fight bamboo chickens!
The Stadio Olimpico in Rome.

The highly anticipated match of the 27th round of the 2009-2010 Serie A season has begun, with Roma hosting AC Milan. Fans are already cheering and waving flags in the stands, and the match is almost ready to begin.

The players from both sides are preparing to enter the field in the players' tunnel.

Shan Yongzhuo saw Pato on the other side, who gave him a friendly but slightly provocative smile.

Then there were Nesta and Thiago Silva, both of whom looked at Shan Yongzhuo with wary eyes.

"Well, it's only the defenders who know how terrifying I am." Shan Yongzhu thought to himself, praising Nesta and Silva's performance.

"However, even if you are so friendly, I will not go easy on you."

"I'm really sorry to have made you travel all the way to Rome only to suffer such a crushing defeat."

"You can't blame me for this, you guys just had such bad luck."

"Milan is cursed..."

In his mind, Shan Yongzhuo blamed AC Milan's luck and the feng shui of Milan.

As for the match, with such a bugged skill as sacrifice, AC Milan naturally had no chance in Shan Yongzhuo's eyes.

After the match officially started, Shan Yongzhuo passed the ball back to De Rossi and then charged towards AC Milan's half.

He wasn't running very fast, and Tony was drawing some defense ahead of him.

At the same time, De Rossi passed the ball to Pizarro, who then passed it to Perrotta on the wing. Perrotta dribbled forward, but after being defended, he passed the ball back to De Rossi.

De Rossi dribbled forward a short distance and saw Shan Yongzhuo reach for the ball, so he immediately passed it to him, but Ronaldinho intercepted it, and AC Milan launched a counter-attack.

Ronaldinho passed the ball back to Pirlo, who evaded De Rossi and launched the ball forward, finding Pato directly.

Pato dribbled past Pizarro and then unleashed a powerful shot over Burdisso's defense.

Doni was there to keep watch, but thankfully the ball went wide of the post.

The match began, and neither side played too conservatively. They went back and forth, and the game was quite open and expansive.

Dan Yongzhuo wasn't in a hurry at all. The Golden Right Foot under the Sacrifice effect had a 10-minute cooldown, and all he had to do now was wait for the skill to arrive.

However, Shan Yongzhuo's performance puzzled Pato.

"Has he still not closed his eyes?"

"why is that?"

Pato was a little confused. He was very clear about Shan Yongzhuo's eye-closing ritual, but Shan Yongzhuo had not closed his eyes yet in this match, which made him understand something.

Soon, ten minutes passed.

Roma launched an attack in the 12th minute. De Rossi brought the ball up the field and saw Shan Yongzhuo raising his hand to ask for the ball, so he immediately passed it to him.

Shan Yongzhuo was standing on the left, about ten meters away from the penalty area. Ambrosini was standing next to him, and Pirlo was also coming over from the other side, trying to double-team Shan Yongzhuo.

Thiago Silva was keeping a close watch from behind, ready to step up immediately should Ambrosini be breached.

With his back to Ambrosini, Shan Yongzhuo seemed to be about to pass the ball, but Pirlo quickly ran a step to block the passing lane.

However, the next moment, Shan Yongzhuo suddenly pulled the ball and then lifted it up, the football flying straight up in place.

Ambrosini and Pirlo were both taken aback, not quite understanding what Shan Yongzhuo was trying to do.

Then, they saw Shan Yongzhu lean against Ambrosini, turn slightly to the side, and then, as the ball was falling, swing his right foot and kick it.

The football suddenly flew high backward.

Ambrosini and Pirlo instinctively looked in the direction the ball had traveled. They instinctively felt it was a pass, but it didn't quite seem like a pass; it looked like a very casual kick.

Then, they saw the ball rise to its highest point and then plummet downwards towards the goal guarded by Abbiati.

"This……"

Both of them were somewhat incredulous. At that moment, the trajectory of the ball had deceived Abbiati from the very beginning, preventing him from making an accurate judgment. By the time he realized the danger, Abbiati had made a save attempt, but to no avail.

The Olympic Stadium erupted in cheers and celebrations, while media reporters, coaches, referees, and players from both teams stared at the ball in the goal, some in disbelief.

The television screen was replaying Shan Yongzhuo's goal, and it wasn't until then that the commentator realized what had happened.

"That's a bicycle kick outside the penalty area..."

The commentator sounded somewhat incredulous, but quickly regained his composure. "If it were an ordinary player, this would definitely be luck, but this is Shan Yongzhuo, so it's not luck."

"In a previous match against Inter Milan, Shan Yongzhuo also scored a similar goal. Now, AC Milan is getting a taste of the bitterness."

In short, Rome is in the lead.

On the sidelines, Spalletti's mouth was practically agape; he felt as if he had just played the Ice Bucket Challenge in the sweltering heat of summer.

Comfortable!

Leonardo didn't have such a good feeling.

Before the match, he made special defensive arrangements against Shan Yongzhuo, which were very meticulous.

But now...

It seemed like all our efforts were in vain, as the opponent broke through the defense in just over ten minutes.

However, he couldn't blame the players on the field for this goal. No one would have expected him to shoot directly like that, so it's understandable that Ambrosini didn't expect it either.

Moreover, he dared not yell at Ambrosini and Pirlo, as those two would not have much faith in him. He believed that if he clashed with either of them, he would be the one to leave.

Rome completely disregarded Leonardo's feelings; De Rossi, Toni, and others were walking back with Shan Yongzhuo.

Tony kept saying, "That was incredible. I could never score a goal like that in my entire career, even with training time."

“Of course, because that’s you,” De Rossi retorted from the side.

Tony retorted, "You're the same."

De Rossi shrugged, completely unconcerned. "That's why I won't say it out loud. If I don't, it'll make it seem like I have a chance to score."

Tony thought about it and realized that De Rossi's words seemed to make sense.

However, Toni's form has been improving recently, with goals scored in both the league and the Europa League.

"It must be the effect of my cultivation. If I continue to cultivate, I will definitely be as powerful as Shan!"

Tony felt he had found the reason why Shan Yongzhuo was so amazing, and secretly vowed to return to his peak condition.

There was another person who shared his view.

Alessandro Pato!

He looked at the other person's number 19 with delight in his eyes.

"I know why he doesn't need to close his eyes!"

"His cultivation level must have improved!"

"Like me, according to the master who gave me the secret manual, I have only cultivated to the Body Refinement stage, and I haven't even entered the Qi Gathering stage yet."

"Single, he must have cultivated for many years, and may even have already entered the Foundation Establishment stage? That's how it should be pronounced, right, Bamboo Chicken?"

"Never mind, I'm going to catch up with them."

"I am the European Golden Boy, Alessandro Pato, the successor to Ronaldinho!"

"I will soon reach the Qi Gathering stage, and then the Bamboo Chicken stage!"
