By the time he tried to force his way past Kaladze,

Kaladze timed his tackle perfectly.

He successfully hooked the ball over and turned to pass it to Maldini.

Thwack——

With a swing of his arm, Maldini sent a long pass soaring down the pitch.

Even playing as a centre-back today,

Maldini's long passes were still precise.

As soon as his teammate intercepted the ball, Huang Kaiwen was already sprinting forward.

When Huang Kaiwen crossed the halfway line,

Maldini's pass landed just two meters in front of him.

Huang Kaiwen exchanged a glance with Aldonin.

The two men accelerated towards the ball at almost the same time.

Neither of them showed any intention of backing down.

The opponent was closer.

Huang Kaiwen could only grit his teeth and speed up again.

He stomped down hard with his right leg on the pitch, sending large clumps of turf flying.

Closer.

Even closer.

Even so,

the opponent got to the ball first.
