Chapter 718: The Referee Wearing a Barcelona Jersey
"The undefeated champion, the master of the universe!" News about Real Madrid instantly swept across the globe, drawing discussions from fans and non-fans alike, because this achievement was truly shocking.
The Associated Press featured this sports news on its official website cover, with a photo of the galactic team stepping onto the field, edited to create a strong sense of oppression through darkening and other post-processing techniques, as if they were an invincible army.
The accompanying article pointed out that Real Madrid\'s undefeated performance in the league secured them the La Liga title, proving that they are the strongest team in the current and even modern football history.
Wang Feng, with an average of 1.7 goals per game, is the soul of the team. His two-goal advantage for the galactic team even before the start of the season completely relieved the pressure, allowing his teammates to enjoy the game without any worries.
More importantly, under the leadership of the Chinese superstar, the entire team erupted with an unstoppable momentum, with each player shining brightly and being considered among the best.
"Winning the league nine times in a row is not their end goal. Real Madrid has set their sights on the upcoming Champions League final, and it\'s doubtful that Barcelona, their defeated opponent, can stop them from achieving a ninth consecutive Champions League title!"
Reuters declared, "The mythical team descends upon the football world!"
The dominance of the galactic team has reached a new height, a height that is no less than any secular football, all thanks to the excellent chemistry between Wang Feng and his teammates.
Renowned English modern football researcher Kings wrote in his column that the current situation of Real Madrid deserves in-depth study and exploration by numerous scholars.
"From a technical and tactical perspective, the team has world-class players in the defense, midfield, and forward lines, truly worthy of the name \'Galactic Team.\'"
"However, they often fail to unleash their full power due to various reasons, which is the most common theorem in football where one plus one is less than two."
"But under Wang Feng\'s leadership, Real Madrid has broken through this limit. Simply put, if the Chinese superstar is determined to win a game, regardless of whether it\'s Gareth Bale with a price tag of a hundred million, or players like Modric and Kroos with prices in the tens of millions, they will all contribute their full strength and unite as one."
"This is something rarely seen in other top clubs, because everyone is a star, and no one can truly convince anyone else, even someone as strong as Messi will have conflicts with players like Villa and Ibrahimovic."
"The reason Wang Feng can achieve all this lies firstly in his nine years of hard work at Real Madrid. He is already the oldest player with the highest reputation in the team."
"And secondly, and most importantly, his personal strength is outstanding. Thirteen European Golden Boots (including one just obtained this season) and ten Ballon d\'Or trophies shine brightly. In nine years, he has brought 40 major trophies to the galactic team, maintaining consecutive league and Champions League titles to this day. How can such achievements not be respected and admired by others?"
"A unique absolute leader, a unique mythical team, creating a unique epic achievement!"
Agence France-Presse also extensively reported on Real Madrid\'s undefeated championship feat, calling it "an unrepeatable legend!"
"Throughout the season, Wang Feng fought like a tireless machine, his spirit infecting the whole team and turning everyone into a powerful force, collectively achieving this accomplishment."
"Of note is that almost everyone in the main lineup has fulfilled their potential and strength, indisputably among the best players in the world."
Xinghua News highly praised the leadership qualities of the Chinese superstar, "As the saying goes, a strong leader has no weak soldiers. Wang Feng has played an active role in leading a group of stars to stand proudly at the top of the world."
"This scene is very similar to when he led the Chinese team to lift the World Cup trophy in South Africa, despite being 35 years old at the 2018 World Cup in Russia, we still believe he can lead the national team to achieve good results!"
In addition to the four major news agencies with the widest influence, other media outlets also extensively reported and praised Real Madrid and Wang Feng\'s crazy performance throughout the season, including media outlets in the Catalonia region.
They had to marvel and praise so that another failed season for Barcelona could be diluted.
Many media and fans were pessimistic about the upcoming Champions League final, believing that the Catalonia team simply couldn\'t defeat the momentum of the galactic team.
Of course, at this moment, they didn\'t know that someone would help them.
"The time for the match is running out. Look at this rapid counterattack by Real Madrid. Wang Feng is advancing quickly and smoothly passes the midfield!"
Barcelona defender Busquets immediately intercepted upon seeing this, but the Chinese superstar\'s speed did not diminish. With a simple and clear fake, he easily passed by as the opponent lost balance.
He raced into the frontcourt, nearing his shooting range! At this moment, Pique rushed out from the side and slid tackle regardless of everything.
Wang Feng lightly lifted and jumped forward, trying to dodge the Spanish defender\'s leg, but the opponent\'s raised leg was too high, brushing against the Chinese superstar\'s ankle, causing him to lose balance and fall to the ground.
"Foul! This is a serious foul!" the commentator roared.
Even the Barcelona players couldn\'t help but slow down and look at the referee, believing that it was definitely a foul, but the referee\'s whistle didn\'t blow!
However, this was within Wang Feng\'s expectations. In this match, there were countless incomprehensible scenes. The referee was almost wearing a Barcelona jersey!
Ignoring the intense pain in his leg, the Chinese superstar quickly got up to control the nearby ball. Alba also immediately reacted and came forward to defend, but he was surpassed by Wang Feng\'s diagonal acceleration.
Cutting inside the penalty area, Wang Feng aimed at the far corner and took a shot. The ball passed over Ter Stegen\'s fingertips and slipped into the goal along the post.
"Goal! Real Madrid finally scored! 1:1! They equalized!"
"Both sides are back to the starting line, everything is not easy!"
"Huh? What the hell? The referee\'s whistle blew, but it\'s not pointing to the center circle for a kickoff, but to where Pique committed the foul just now."
"What the hell?" The commentator in the studio couldn\'t help but swear, "How did this fool become the referee of the Champions League final? Don\'t they understand that it\'s advantageous for the attack?"
"And just now, you didn\'t blow the foul, and now that the goal is scored, you blow it?"
Wang Feng was very angry. He rushed to protest against the referee, but was directly shown a yellow card.
Other players also came up to pressure, and Ramos even clenched his fists wanting to give him a good one, but he was stopped by the Chinese superstar.
"This bastard wants us dead, then I\'ll beat him to death first!" the Spanish defender roared.
From the beginning, this Champions League final was full of strangeness, with the referee team blatantly favoring the Catalonia team. Their defensive actions were very rough but without any risk of cards, while the galactic team would receive yellow card warnings as soon as they made a mistake.
So far, almost everyone in Real Madrid\'s midfield and defense had been booked, but fortunately, Ancelotti\'s ability to control the situation was good, continuously adjusting the lineup and tactics, avoiding any red card situations.
Even so, the galactic team still had the upper hand on the field because they were the undefeated champions with unbeatable morale!
But the most deadly thing was that the main referee actually interfered with the goal. Not only did he disallow two goals for Real Madrid on the pretext of offside, he also awarded a penalty kick to Barcelona, allowing Messi to score and help the team take the lead.
And now, he escalated the situation by blowing the goal off again, citing a foul before the goal and changing it to a free kick!
