Puyol came up to throw the ball from the sideline.

Huang Kaiwen blocked in front of Xavi, Puyol turned several times to adjust direction, but Huang Kaiwen remained unmoved, firmly blocking Xavi.

In the end, he could only throw the ball back to his own half.

Toure received the ball and immediately passed horizontally to Piqué, who instantly made a direct pass to Iniesta.

Iniesta carried the ball to the right, Essien and Mikel rushed together to defend, Iniesta quickly passed the ball laterally to Messi and continued to push forward.

Henry and Eto’o spread out to pressure Chelsea’s fullbacks.

Messi dribbled forward rapidly, before Essien could extend a foot, he made a direct pass; Iniesta, at the forefront, used his back to flick the ball backward, sending it into the penalty area.

However, the ball was too fast, and Messi couldn’t catch up, having to abandon this attack.

Mourinho shouted, waving hand from the sideline.

Huang Kaiwen jogged to the sideline and asked.

“The added time for the first half will definitely be long, but we can’t let them keep pressing our penalty area to attack. Find a chance to get the ball to the front and drag some time.”

Mourinho feared Huang Kaiwen would be unhappy and explained: “I know you have the ability to score, but if you don’t, they’ll counterattack, so drag some time to reduce their pressure. We’ll adjust tactical details during halftime.”

“Okay, I got it, coach.”

Mourinho patted Huang Kaiwen’s shoulder twice before gently pushing him back onto the field.

Cech saw Barca players hadn’t all run back, so he sent a long ball out directly.

As a goalkeeper, his long pass skills were quite excellent; the ball rapidly flew toward the front right field, Huntelaar seized the chance, ran to the right, jumped and headed the ball towards the front.

Huang Kaiwen and Xavi rushed toward the falling point together.

While running, Xavi realized he couldn’t get the ball first, rapidly turned to run back.

Meanwhile, the fourth official had raised the board for added time; seven minutes for first-half injury time was considered relatively short.

On the right, Huang Kaiwen faced Xavi one-on-one, without a second thought Xavi sprinted toward Huang Kaiwen.

In his accelerating instant, Huang Kaiwen flicked with his right foot, dribbling the ball to avoid Xavi’s foot, bypass Xavi, and Busquets quickly accelerated toward his own penalty area, while Piqué and Toure ran to the right. Updates are released by NoveI-Fire.ɴet

Huang Kaiwen brought the ball to the right inside the penalty area, faced with four defenders. Ballack stood alone inside the penalty area, with Puyol nearby having no intention to defend.

Huang Kaiwen shuffled steps slowly dribbling, finding truly no chance, decisively cut with his left foot, taking the ball toward the sideline.

Four behind trailing simultaneously, creating a rather rare scene.

Outside the penalty area, only Xavi and Busquets continued to chase behind Huang Kaiwen.

Finding no opportunity, Huang Kaiwen aimed to drag some time.

After all, Chelsea was leading; he had no objection if this score held till the end.

Thus Huang Kaiwen didn’t run too fast, seeking chances to pass; now Barca’s defenders likely returned to midfield, he leisurely jogged toward sideline, while Xavi behind was unwilling, directly extended hand, pushing Huang Kaiwen.

Huang Kaiwen quickly exerted waist and abdomen force, paused, bringing the ball forward went out, collided with Xavi’s back, Huang Kaiwen could not control feet, decisively fell on the sideline, pressing the ball.

Under normal circumstances, he wouldn’t fall from this force, but certainly, the ball would carry out.

Between yielding the ball and falling, Huang Kaiwen chose to fall to relieve, not letting the ball go out.

Busacca’s penalty this time had no controversy, he ran up warning Xavi and awarded Chelsea a free kick in the front field.

“How to play, Kevin?”

Ballack ran up and asked.

“Let’s drag some time, adjust at halftime. You and Sergio waste a bit of time, I’ll sort things out at the penalty area.”

Huang Kaiwen covered his mouth to speak.

Ballack and Ramos began consulting at the sideline.

Huang Kaiwen arrived at the penalty area and sent Terry back.

The matter of whether the free kick could score was one thing; don’t let them equalize the score in the final moments of the first half.

Ballack and Ramos stood together on the right, separately positioned behind and to the left of the ball, clearly implying one main kick with one cover.

After the referee lowered the whistle.

Ballack, positioned directly behind, ran past the ball, while Huang Kaiwen sprinted out of the penalty area toward the left.

Xavi closely tailed Huang Kaiwen, running out together.

Ramos stood and swung his leg, sending the ball from right to left.

Throughout the process, he kept watching inside the penalty area, even the wall instinctively jumped, realizing the deception mid-air.

Huang Kaiwen strove to reach the sideline, leaving Xavi behind several positions.

Yet upon seeing the ball’s position, he discovered it was heading out of bounds.

As he ran, Huang Kaiwen pushed off with his left foot, soaring forward reaching out his right leg, the ball bounced off his lower leg, returning within the sideline.

After landing, Huang Kaiwen turned and sprinted toward the ball.

Xavi arrived a step faster this time, but Huang Kaiwen reached out, still pulling the ball in front of Xavi.

Puyol and Xavi closed in on Huang Kaiwen by the baseline.

Huang Kaiwen dragged the ball with his right foot, the ball bounced on his left foot, he leaned forward, kicked under the ball with his right heel, dropping the ball in front.
