He smashed Busquets to the ground with a beautiful back elbow strike, then turned to the dumbfounded and frightened referee and said, "See that? *That's* what a fucking elbow strike is!"

With that, he turned and walked off the field.

He didn't have to go far, because the incident happened near the sideline.

When they saw Chen Yingxiong smash Busquets with his elbow, many commentators gasped. "My god! Yingxiong is crazy!"

"Such an action will bring him even more severe additional penalties!"

"This… Yingxiong must have been driven mad with anger…"

Of course, not everyone was cheering him on.

The Italian commentators were gnashing their teeth and shouting, "Well done! That was a beautiful elbow strike! Adeile, watch carefully, Busquets' powerless collapse is the real performance of someone who has taken Yingxiong's elbow! A person who has been hit in the face by Yingxiong's elbow will not have the strength to scream, then cover his face with his hands and roll around on the ground! They just pass out!"

Since he was already sent off, he might as well knock another one down to vent his anger.

That's what the Italian commentators were thinking.

He Ping was also frightened at first. Chen Yingxiong's elbow strike on Busquets was decisive, ruthless, and completely premeditated—he wanted to do it! Such a ruthless blow didn't seem like a football player at all, but more like a combat expert…

He was stunned for a long time before he remembered that he was a commentator and should say something. But what should he say? Support Chen Yingxiong's venting behavior? Or condemn Chen Yingxiong's recklessness and impulsiveness from a neutral and objective standpoint? But his current emotions really prevented him from remaining objective and neutral.

In fact, he himself was very angry when he saw the referee's outrageous penalty, otherwise he wouldn't have spoken up for Chen Yingxiong just now.

But as a Chinese commentator, he had been educated many times—you can eat whatever you want, but you really can't say some things carelessly.

Back then, when CCTV broadcast the 2002 World Cup matches, a commentator questioned the performance of the Koreans on the field. The next day, the Korean Embassy called the station to protest, insisting that it was a diplomatic incident.

But now He Ping couldn't say nothing.

"Uh… ah, there's been a sudden incident on the field! Yingxiong acted impulsively and elbowed Busquets… He's too uncalm, too impulsive…" As he spoke, he couldn't control his emotions and suddenly changed his tone. "But I think anyone would be angry when faced with such injustice! What's more, Busquets pushed Chen Yingxiong away first!"

The previous television replay had very clearly shown the audience that Chen Yingxiong did not wave his hand to hit Alves, let alone touch him, so Alves's dive was undoubtedly a fake. Everyone was very angry at Alves's dive and very sympathetic to Chen Yingxiong, who had been wronged.

Therefore, this time, when Chen Yingxiong really elbowed Busquets, not many Chinese fans thought that Chen Yingxiong had done wrong. Their thoughts were the same as He Ping's. Although Chen Yingxiong was indeed impulsive, in that situation, a burst of anger was completely understandable.

Because many people, after seeing Chen Yingxiong being sent off with a groundless red card, were already angrily wanting to smash their televisions…

Hitting someone?

If they were lucky enough to be on the scene, they would also want to hit someone!

Chen Yingxiong was already on fire, and Busquets came up and pushed him without saying a word. Wasn't that asking for a beating?

※※※

Chen Yingxiong's elbow strike caused a riot on the scene.

He turned and walked off, while the Barcelona players didn't dare to act rashly. Pique rushed up to cause trouble for Chen Yingxiong, but he was intercepted by De Jong. Valdés also ran up, but of course, he was pushed away by the Napoli players.

Across the crowd, he shouted, "Don't run away if you have the guts, you bastard!"

However, he shouted in Catalan, and Chen Yingxiong couldn't understand. Of course, if Chen Yingxiong could understand, maybe Valdés would soon regret his behavior of telling him not to leave…

Now the fire in Chen Yingxiong's chest had burned out, enveloping his whole body.

He was an object that no one could touch, otherwise… that person would be directly vaporized.

So, such a scene appeared on the sidelines—the Barcelona players angrily rushed towards Chen Yingxiong one after another, like a tide, and then they were all blocked by the Napoli players, who were like a breakwater, and no one could get close to or touch Chen Yingxiong.

Chen Yingxiong then slowly walked along the sideline of the field, towards the player tunnel in the middle, amid the angry roars of the Barcelona players.

Poor Busquets was lying on the ground with a face full of blood, but no one took care of him. All of his Barcelona teammates ran to denounce the executioner Chen Yingxiong. It wasn't that his teammates didn't care about their teammate, nor was it that Busquets had poor relationships in the Barcelona team, it was just Barcelona's habit…

Arshavin ran up, wanting to comfort Chen Yingxiong with a few words, but saw that Chen Yingxiong's face was frighteningly ferocious. He clenched his teeth, his eyes were wide open, and the muscles on his face were twitching slightly. And his hands kept clenching and opening, clenching and opening.

This was his expression of unwillingness. As the player who had cooperated with Chen Yingxiong for the longest time, Arshavin already understood it very well.

"Yingxiong…" He originally wanted to say something, but now seeing Chen Yingxiong like this, he didn't know what to say to comfort him. Being sent off so inexplicably, ending his Champions League match like this, no one would be willing to accept it, right?

※※※

Chen Yingxiong walked off the field step by step, while Mazzarri was still roaring at the fourth official, "This is a scandal! A scandal! This is a blatant scandal! This is definitely not something that can be explained by 'mistake'!"

He pointed at Chen Yingxiong, who was walking past him, "He absolutely did not elbow! I guarantee it with my personality! Yingxiong is not that kind of person!"

But the fourth official just shook his head and didn't answer.

He knew that someone would come to clean him up.

Sure enough, the referee Adeile, who had dealt with Chen Yingxiong's matter, ran over. After whispering a few words to the fourth official, he walked to Mazzarri, who was still indignant, and pointed his finger at the stands: Go and shout there!

Mazzarri became even more angry. If assistant coach Viviani hadn't rushed up to hold him, he would have punched the head coach at that moment…

"You are blatantly murdering! Murdering!" he roared at the two referees.

"We will write every word you say into the match report, Mr. Mazzarri," the fourth official reminded him.

"Whatever!" Mazzarri stopped talking nonsense with them and turned to the stands.

※※※

"Oh oh oh! Mazzarri has also been sent off! Napoli have had a player and their head coach sent off in the first fifteen minutes… This is too heavy a blow!"

"Mazzarri was sent off with a red card for disrespecting the referee…"

"This is really a case of misfortune never comes singly. Yingxiong was just sent off, and Mazzarri was also sent off for protesting the referee's decision!"

The commentators' exclamations rang out again.

For them, although the match had only started for fifteen minutes, it had already exceeded the dramatic extent of any previous match…

First, Chen Yingxiong scored a wonderful goal in a way of consecutive aerial juggling, helping Napoli equalize the aggregate score and putting the team in a leading position. Then, Chen Yingxiong, the hero of the goal, was shown a red card for elbowing Alves, but according to the slow-motion replay, Chen Yingxiong was wronged. He didn't even touch Alves at all. Alves faked a fall to frame him.

Logically speaking, even if a player is wronged, they would have to accept the result in the end. Although angry, they could only complain a few words and then reluctantly leave the field.

But the more exciting thing was yet to come. The person who was wronged was Chen Yingxiong, that unusual bear!

So, he used a turning elbow action that could only be seen in fighting competitions, killing Busquets, who came to provoke him, and he was still lying on the ground, receiving athletic treatment from the Barcelona team doctor. No one knew whether he could persist in the match…

This barbaric scene shocked countless people, but Chen Yingxiong nonchalantly said something to the referee, then turned and left the field, leaving behind the Barcelona players who were full of anger.

A real man never looks back at an explosion, and a real man never looks back to see if anyone dares to sneak attack him.

Chen Yingxiong's big show had just ended, and Mazzarri was at odds with the fourth official, and he had also called the referee over.

The result was that he was sent off with a red card for scolding the referee's decision.

"Although this match has only been going on for fifteen minutes, I think just these fifteen minutes are enough to compete for the best peak showdown of the year… These fifteen minutes have exciting goals, bloody conflicts, and controversial penalties. It meets all the elements of a classic football match!"

※※※

Mazzarri was very angry, but don't think that Barcelona would be very happy. Guardiola was also roaring loudly on the sidelines, but the fourth official's attention was all attracted by Mazzarri, and… Guardiola was very smart, he just raised his voice a little, but there was no foul language, and his tone was not impulsive.

He was dissatisfied, thinking that Chen Yingxiong's blow to Busquets was too violent, too bloody, and too cruel, and had exceeded the scope of a football player.

Guardiola also watched the slow-motion replay of his foul. Chen Yingxiong really didn't touch Alves. This was a self-righteous fake fall by the Brazilian, and South American players inevitably have such playing habits. But whether the referee's red card penalty was correct was worth discussing. He could protest and express his dissatisfaction after the match, but he couldn't directly hit people on the field… If everyone hit people because they were wronged and received a red card, would there still be peaceful days on this field?

What kind of skill is hitting people? You have to protest reasonably and with restraint…

You can lose the game, but you must never lose your character!

He only protested a few times, then stopped talking and became more concerned about Busquets's injury, wondering if Busquets could continue the match…

Soon the team doctor sent him bad news: "Sergio is awake, but the situation is not good… His nose is fractured, and… he has a slight concussion. He definitely can't last until the end of the match, we should replace him immediately!"

Listening to the team doctor's words, Guardiola's eyes widened.

After listening, he became angry again: "That butcher!!"

In Chen Yingxiong's nickname list, there was now a new nickname.

"Also, about Daniel…" the team doctor still wanted to report on Alves's matter.

"What could happen to him? People didn't even touch him!" Guardiola said unhappily. Although he warned his players to protect themselves on the field, he didn't like this kind of fake fall that deliberately framed the opponent.

"Uh… no. Actually, something did happen to him… Because he covered his face and lay on the ground for too long, the weight of his upper body was all on his bent arm, causing his arm muscles to cramp…" the team doctor said embarrassedly.

"…" Guardiola didn't know what expression to make anymore.

※※※

From the moment Alves covered his face and fell to the ground, the Stadio San Paolo had been booing loudly.

And as the red card appeared, Chen Yingxiong angrily smashed Busquets, and then Mazzarri was sent off, the Stadio San Paolo could not hear any other sounds except boos. The stadium seemed to have turned into hell, and angry magma spewed out, splashing everywhere.

Therefore, those commentators who went to the scene were all shouting at the top of their lungs, because if they didn't, they would be drowned out by the boos on the scene, causing the audience behind them to not be able to hear anything clearly. And the commentators in the studio could still clearly hear the boos coming from the scene, even though they were thousands of miles away.

The anger of the Napoli fans was evident.

Their anger was justified. Chen Yingxiong had been framed, and he was the most threatening player in the team against Barcelona so far. Now that this player had been sent off with a red card for unwarranted reasons, the Napoli fans' mood at this moment was exactly the same as Mazzarri's.

※※※

The chain reaction brought about by Alves's fake fall was a series of events. First, Chen Yingxiong was sent off with a red card. Then, Busquets was bombed to scum by Chen Yingxiong in the conflict, paying the price for his provocation. He was replaced by Keita because of a fractured nose and a slight concussion.

Although Chen Yingxiong was sent off, making Napoli play with ten men early on, Guardiola was also forced to use a substitution in the fifteenth minute. Both sides suffered losses, but Napoli's loss was greater…

In addition to Busquets's injury and departure, and Mazzarri and Chen Yingxiong being sent off, some players on both sides also received yellow cards in this conflict.

Pique on the Barcelona side, and De Jong and Ranocchia on the Napoli side.

De Jong received a yellow card for blocking Pique. The two had pushing and shoving actions with each other, and their mouths were not clean, so the two received yellow cards together.

Ranocchia received a yellow card because after Chen Yingxiong was pushed away by Busquets, he continued to scold Alves for faking a fall, causing another small-scale mess, so he also received a yellow card.

These two yellow cards seemed to be nothing, because Pique on the Barcelona side also received a yellow card.

But those with a discerning eye could naturally see the key point.

Napoli's defensive pressure was much greater than Barcelona's, especially with Chen Yingxiong already sent off.

De Jong was the key person in defending Messi. Now that he had a yellow card, the match had only been going on for fifteen minutes. How would he play the next seventy-five minutes of the match?

Ranocchia, as a center back, was also an important part of Napoli's defensive system. He also had a yellow card. Facing the repeated attacks of Messi, Pedro, and others, how much pressure would he be under? It would be strange if he wasn't under pressure!

Chen Yingxiong had been sent off, so it didn't matter if Pique had a yellow card, because he would basically have no defensive pressure.

Therefore, Mazzarri, who walked to the stands, frowned tightly.

He knew very well that even if he wasn't impulsive and wasn't sent off, the match would probably deviate from the track he had planned.

Because there was an invisible hand of fate manipulating Napoli's boat…

He stood in the first row of the stands, grabbed the iron railing with both hands, clenched tightly, and didn't let go until his knuckles turned white.
