The Santiago Bernabeu Stadium erupted instantly.

When Chen Zhong took the ball outside the penalty area, many Real Madrid fans stretched their necks, already having a premonition in their hearts.

Their captain was never a timid person.

Just like this, in their anticipation, they saw Chen Zhong receive the ball outside the penalty area, adjust, and shoot, a heavy cannonball that directly pierced through the defense of Hercules, straight through the goalkeeper’s fingers, and slammed the ball into the net!

2:0

In just over ten minutes of the first half, Real Madrid had already taken a two-goal lead at home. Hercules’ fans were completely silent. They came here with great expectations, hoping for a miracle, but less than a tenth of the game had passed, and the miracle had already been completely crushed.

Some Hercules fans had even turned off their TVs or got up to leave.

At this moment, watching Chen Zhong raise his hands in celebration, listening to the Real Madrid fans shout "Chen," everyone had a premonition that this was going to be a massacre.

On the sidelines, Mourinho raised an eyebrow, watching all this, looking at Francisco and saying, "I think I now know why Pellegrini did what he did last season."

"He has this ability."

Mourinho was referring to how Pellegrini relied on Chen Zhong as the main scorer last season, and now, as the season gradually came to an end, Mourinho had more trust in Chen Zhong, rather than using Cristiano Ronaldo as the main scorer and trying to promote his fellow countryman.

Especially in this game, when everyone played around Chen Zhong, Mourinho was surprised to find that Real Madrid’s offense was not noticeably weakened.

There is no doubt, Chen Zhong can raise both the ceiling and the floor of a team.

"2:0"

"Real Madrid has taken a two-goal lead."

"We can see that the home fans are very excited."

"They are cheering for Chen Zhong."

The match continued, with Hercules retreating completely, while the Real Madrid fans cheered as if they were celebrating a festival. Meanwhile, Hercules fans clasped their hands together in prayer, hoping their team wouldn’t be too embarrassed with the remaining time left.

In this game, even though Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka didn’t play.

However, surrounded by Chen Zhong, Real Madrid still had full control of the game. Hercules even rarely had the chance to touch the ball.

"Real Madrid’s attack."

"Granero with the ball."

"The cooperation between him and Chen Zhong."

"Marseille Turn."

"Reached the edge of the penalty area."

"Passed to Benzema."

"Cross pass."

"Take it again!"

"Kick it!"

Real Madrid played very calmly. The cooperation between Granero and Chen Zhong made it difficult for Hercules’ players to defend. Chen Zhong used his signature Marseille Turn to bypass the defender at the edge of the penalty area and did a perfect passing exchange with Benzema.

Adebayor pulled away some of the defenders.

As the ball was passed between Benzema and Chen Zhong, there was a clear path to the goal in front of Chen Zhong.

Chen Zhong didn’t hesitate, stopped the ball, and took a shot.

The ball flew towards the top right corner of the goal at lightning speed.

"The ball is in again!"

"3:0"

"Chen Zhong has scored a brace."

"A shot with his left foot!"

"The goalkeeper didn’t even react!"

"Right now, Chen Zhong is really terrifying."

"Both his left and right feet are balanced, you never know which foot he will use to stop or pass the ball."

"Which foot he’ll use to finish with a goal!"

Mourinho widened his eyes, shaking his right hand while spinning in a circle.

After the spin, he looked at Francisco and said, "I remember when I first came to the team, he didn’t seem to be this kind of player."

"When did he become like this?"

"Can you remind me?"

"Just recently!" Francisco knew Mourinho was asking about Chen Zhong’s ambidexterity, but he was also a bit surprised: "He’s been improving, training his left foot, and this season, just after the winter window, we’ve noticed his left and right feet seem equally capable."

"Of course, being able to use it in real matches is the most important."

Chen Zhong has always tried to use his left foot to pass in matches, sometimes even trying to use the outside of the foot, but genuinely making the left foot effective was only after the winter window. And for people to truly realize that Chen Zhong was already a five-star with ambidexterity, even the game’s winter updates began modifying his dual-foot data, it was only at the beginning of last month.

"Now I think he’s really a monster," Mourinho looked at Francisco and sincerely exclaimed.

A player who was already strong can continue to improve at an alarming rate, while also maintaining a good training habit, possessing strong spirit attributes...

If such a player isn’t a monster, then what is?

Keep in mind, from an age perspective, Chen Zhong is still a very young player.

He’s only in his early twenties!

...

On the field, after scoring, Chen Zhong pointed at Benzema, who was also smiling, raised his hands high and ran over, Adebayor looked at the scene in front of him with some unwillingness.
