At the post-match press conference, Capello said, "Higuain is a very promising player. He has a keen sense for goal and his ability to be in the right place is remarkable... Suppressed from getting playing time by Kevin? No, no, no, that’s not the case at all. You can ask him yourselves, he’s sitting right here."
Higuain glanced at Capello and said to the reporters, "Kevin is the leader of the team, I respect him a lot. He is the role model I learn from and the goal I strive towards. I have no conflict with Kevin, and it’s an honor to be his substitute. It’s normal not to start in a big club like Real Madrid, even excellent players like Guti and Saviola are sometimes substitutes, so being a substitute is not a problem... Just like it’s written on the T-shirt, I hope Kevin can come back soon, the whole team hopes he can recover and return to the squad quickly."
"Fabio, Real Madrid hasn’t lost a game yet, does this mean that Real Madrid can handle all matches without Kevin?"
"Are you talking nonsense! When a team has the best players in the world, you say that team doesn’t need the best players in the world? It would certainly be best for Real Madrid to keep winning, but Kevin is very important to the team. Like the match against Lazio, if Kevin had been there, a draw would have been impossible!"
Capello said discontentedly, "Because of this gentleman reporter’s ridiculous comments, today’s press conference is over."
After Capello stood up, Higuain also got up and left with him.
"Your performance at the press conference today was not bad,"
"That’s what I should do,"
said Higuain cautiously.
"Then keep it up. It’s an honor to substitute for Kevin. It’s good that you have this awareness. Modesty leads to progress. Although you can’t become the next Kevin, you can certainly strive to become the next great forward."
Capello nodded, walking back to the dressing room first.
Higuain watched Capello’s departing figure and breathed a sigh of relief.
From Capello’s attitude, he probably hadn’t realized that it was Higuain’s doing.
Lately, Higuain had been very careful, especially in front of Capello, always feeling somewhat guilty.
After waiting for two minutes, Higuain then entered the dressing room.
Huang Kaiwen, sitting in a wheelchair, greeted his teammates in the home dressing room before heading home.
Next came an international match day for national teams.
Afterward, Real Madrid’s schedule was back-to-back away games in the league and the UEFA Champions League, so there was no need to stay in Madrid.
Barry Hearn had called several times to invite him, and Huang Kaiwen, unable to decline any longer, agreed to attend the game live on October 24th.
In the meantime, it was better to stay at home and play games.
After completing Immortal Sword, Huang Kaiwen became engrossed with crafting spirits in "Xuan-Yuan Sword: Scar Of Sky."
There wasn’t much big news on this round of international matches.
However, the spotlight turned to Huang Kaiwen once again after the match between Bochum and Bayern Munich on October 20th, when the referee, Herbert Vander, mentioned him in the post-match coverage.
"Bayern Munich has brought in quite a few outstanding players, and I’ve seen some reports about some of the players recently. But I want to say, in my life, the most talented player I’ve ever seen is Kevin. On the day of the Champions League final, during the warm-up, he juggled the ball with his feet and played ’Für Elise,’ a pianist with his feet, an artist on the green pitch. No other player can be compared to Kevin, it’s not even a comparison on the same level,"
