Su Tao did not notice the changes on the field as he was focused on treating Sanche. At the same time, he realised that he had entered into a whole new realm as he could sense the circulation in Sanche’s ligament and the injury getting better.

Finally, when Su Tao was done with the last procedure and wrapped Sanche’s leg in bandages, he turned to Maldini, “I’m done.”

“When can he completely recover?” Maldini asked with his thoughts preoccupied.

“Strictly speaking, he has already recovered now.” Su Tao smiled.

“What?” Maldini looked at Su Tao in perplexion as it took a long time for him to recover from the shock and asked, “He has already recovered?”

Nodding his head, Su Tao explained patiently, “Football players often suffer from injuries, and Sanche has a strong recovery ability, his injuries are already 70-80% recovered before my treatment. My treatment is just a final push. Take Sanche’s shoulder blade and waist for example. Compared to the pain he’s suffering in those two places, the injury in his ligament isn’t serious.”

“That means that Sanche can now go on the field?” Maldini said, emotionally.

“It won’t be a problem for him to go up for half an hour. But he has already been injured for half a month, and in this period, he did not go through any systematic recovery training, so his physique might not be able to support it. However, his ligament won’t be a reason stopping him from playing.” Su Tao explained patiently. The medical team that has been treating Sanche chose to take protective measures. In reality, he can already start playing on the field, or he wouldn’t be in the reserves namelist.

However, A.C. Milan’s coach was very protective of his platters, and unless Sanche had recovered completely, he wouldn't risk allowing his players’ injury to increase.

As Maldini still had some doubts, he turned to Sanche and tried to communicate, “Try and move about to see if there’s any improvement in your injury.”

Sanche was also filled with doubts as he stood up from the ground and did several stretches before he started jogging and gradually increasing his speed to sprinting.

Very quickly, Sanche ran back to Maldini and he was shocked, “I can’t feel anything unusual in it. My injury seems to have completely recovered.”

Nodding his head, Maldini translated Su Tao’s words happily for Sanche, “Su Tao has already confirmed that you have completely recovered, and you can even participate in the game right now. His only concern is that your physique might not be able to keep up with your usual standards.”

With a strong thirst to participate in the game flickering in his eyes, Sanche replied, “I want to play the game! My team needs me right now, and even if I have to bring out the last strand of energy I have, I will lead them to victory!”

After that, he went to look for the coach.

However, the coach of A.C. Milan was stubborn. No matter how Sanche tried to explain that he’s fully capable of playing in the game, the coach still shook his head firmly.

In the end, Sanche could only call a medical staff over and conducted an examination before the coach. The team’s medical team have all undergone professional training, and the medical staff was shocked by Sanche’s recovery. He couldn’t figure out how Sanche's injury recovered all of a sudden. However, the medical staff still reported the result of his examination to the coach.

The coach knew about the medical team’s professionalism as he asked, “Are you sure that you won’t drag everyone down by playing in the game?”

“I’m the captain of the team, and I have to stand out when my team is currently in danger.” Sanche replied seriously.

“Alright! You can go on the field, and I hope that you won’t disappoint me.” The coach spoke with a stern expression.

The score is already 0:2, and there are still half an hour remaining. With one player dismissed, A.C. Milan have already used up two of their reserves. That means that Sanche is the last substitute. If Sanche gets injured on the field once more, the game will go into a competition between nine and eleven players.

However, the coach made such a risky decision due to his trust for Sanche.

Sanche was also well prepared in the time that he was given. After using three minutes for warm up, he went up to the corner of the field. When the assistant referee took out the substitution board, applause started to resound out in the stadium. Crossing himself, Sanche greeted his fellow teammates before going on the field. He swiftly ran forth as he stretched out his hand, signalling for his teammate to pass him the ball.

As his teammate stretched out his leg, the ball frew a long arc in the air before it landed on Sanche’s head accurately.

Behind Sanche, a robust player of the opposing team with the jersey number of ‘18’ ran over, trying to obstruct Sanche from taking the ball. However, Sanche sandwiched the ball between his feet as he hopped, causing the ball to fly over the head of the opposing player.

Rainbow flick? Using such a gaudy move in the game is the same as humiliating your opponent.

However, the home ground fans instantly became excited as their cheers resonated out like roars of thunder booming.

Feeling humiliated, the opposing player 18 from before became furious as he launched a ferocious sliding tackle.

Sanche was swift, and he was also agile. With a simple leap, he easily dodged the sliding tackle. At this moment, the referee blew the whistle as player 18 had violated the rules. However, since Sanche was still controlling the ball, the referee signalled for the game to continue.

As Sanche started to increase his speed, his center of gravity rapidly shifted between left and right. After he easily passed two defenders and was thirty meters away from the goalpost, he noticed that his teammate did not follow up with him due to the fact that they had one lacking player. In the second half, they’ve been focusing on defending rather than attacking.

Taking a deep breath, Sanche gently buckled the ball, dodging a defender as he continued forth, finally arriving before F.C. Cortone’s penalty area.

Sanche did not take the shot immediately as he stared at the rearguard. He was placed in an awkward position right now. With his experience, he knows that he will commit a foul if he takes the shot. According to the referee’s performance in the first half, he knew that he would be given cards in this situation.

Most importantly, he already has a yellow card, so if he takes the shot, he will face an awkward situation of being dismissed.

As time is running out, the goalkeeper seems to know the rearguard’s intention and pounced forth, trying to resolve this dangerous situation. As Sanche gently knocked the ball, he dodged the goalkeeper. However, the goalkeeper subconsciously tried to grab the ball, which flashed before his nose. In the end, the goalkeeper’s hand fell on Sanche’s leg.

“Arghhh!” Sanche cried out in pain as he fell on the ground and started rolling. Seeing him holding onto his leg, A.C. Milan’s coach immediately bounced up from his seat. Did his worry become reality?

If Sanche suffers another injury, they no longer have any reserves to substitute!

As the referee blew the whistle, he came over to the goalkeeper and raised a red card. At the same time, he also walked over to the penalty kick position.

Looking at this scene, the entire stadium roared.

When Sanche took the ball, not only did he display his outstanding strength of how he faced off with five people, but he also got the goalkeeper to commit a foul before the penalty zone, causing the goalkeeper to be awarded a red card.

F.C. Cortone was completely dumbfounded as their coach had chosen to take the defensive strategy after they made two goals. They’ve already finished with their reserves, and that means that they will not be able to replace anyone as the goalkeeper.

F.C. Cortone’s goalkeeper held onto his face bitterly at this moment. Seeing that the referee had made a judgment, Sanche slowly sat up as he tied his shoes. His plan had succeeded and he managed to fool everyone.

Everyone thought that Sanche was trying to trick the opposing team’s rearguard to be awarded a red card, but his actual plan is to get their goalkeeper dismissed instead.

At the same time, he also obtained a penalty kick opportunity.

In F.C. Cortone’s team, only one of their forwards was once trained as a goalkeeper. As the goalkeeper removed his jersey, that forward took over the role as the goalkeeper.

Taking charge of his own penalty kick, Sanche slowly jogged as he relied on his center of gravity to confuse the goalkeeper before making a score.

Instantly, all the home ground fans became mad as everyone cheered after Sanche’s name.

Immediately, the hearts of A.C. Milan’s team gathered together as they cheered back up and ran over to Sanche, hugging him.

Sanche was being surrounded by his subordinates before he was brought to the half-way line.

He did not have much time left, and five minutes had already passed. They still have one more goal to bring the score back to balance.

Sanche did not want this game to end in a loss, so he wants to slowly change this disadvantageous position slowly.

For the rest of the game, it was a one-man show from Sanche. F.C. Cortone allowed Sanche to charge his way through. Giving an assist to his teammate, A.C. Milan completed their second goal, pulling the score back.

Now that the game is back to the starting line, Sanche grew more excited as he constantly toyed with the rearguards with his remarkable ability. Once again, he broke through F.C. Cortone’s defense line and easily made his second goal.

In the end, the game ended with 3:2, it was a brilliant turnback from A.C. Milan. Instantly, Sanche became the messiah of this game as he was thrown into the air by his teammate.

Sweeping his gaze through the audience, Sanche was looking for the Chinese physician who treated his injury. If it wasn’t for that physician, A.C. Milan might really lose the entire game.

At this moment, Simone was preparing to leave the stadium with a gloomy expression. Who could’ve expected that the game would be so stimulating?

“Hey!” Maldini appeared before Simone in a great mood, causing Simone’s face to seem unsightly. Furthermore, Maldini even brought Emily together with him.

“I acknowledge my loss today.” Simone replied with a dark expression as he continued, “But I don’t think that you will be so fortunate next time.”

“Thank you for your reminder, and please transfer your loss to me as soon as possible. I’ve already promised that I will give that money to the club as their prize money!” Maldini shrugged. He was naturally smugly since he was the winner.

Don’t worry about it. I never owe anyone money.” Simone took out his phone with a grim face and gave a call to his assistant, instructing him to make the transfers to Maldini as soon as possible. He had already embarrassed himself once, so he didn't want to embarrass himself the second time. After all, it’s not a good reputation to be known to renege on his debt.

After Maldini made a check to his account, he smiled, “Thanks! Oh, I’m afraid that you won’t dare to bet with me anymore after seeing Sanche’s performance, right?”

“Hmph!” Simone left with a grim expression.

Even if Simone was still standing upright, he was depressed in his heart.
