Cao Baming waved to the fans on the sidelines, seemingly having gained a new batch of admirers with this appearance!
Wait, wasn't that pink-haired girl a fan of Ronaldo just now? Why is she also so excited?
After the celebration, the players had vented their emotions and also consumed time.
This last chance to kick off came after the scheduled stoppage time had already elapsed.
After Manchester United lost possession of the ball, the referee did not hesitate to blow the whistle, signaling the end of the match!
The fans on the sidelines erupted in cheers, celebrating Arsenal's victory!
Compared to the last match, this win was even more spectacular!
One assist and one goal!
Cao Baming was the absolute hero of the match!
And he had only played for fifteen minutes!
Henry put down his wine glass, unable to help but exclaim.
"This person is quite interesting!"
With the great Henry himself speaking up, those around him nodded in agreement.
...
As Cao Baming walked off the field, he was met by the head coach, Arteta, who made a gesture of embrace.
Arteta looked ecstatic, his eyes seemed to be shining!
"Fantastic, you played incredibly well today!"
"Thank you!"
Cao Baming replied with a smile.
However, he had only played for a little over ten minutes in this match, and he felt a bit disappointed that he was taken off before he even fully warmed up.
He glanced at the other players beside him, who were all drenched in sweat.
Just then, the system's voice chimed in again.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for achieving two consecutive Premier League wins and completing the achievement of more than 3 successful dribbles in a single match. Reward: 10 free attribute points."
"Unlock the point collection system. Earn points by completing key events such as goals and assists! Current remaining points: 1600 points."
A slight curve formed on Cao Baming's lips. Just as he wanted!
"Ding, detecting over 2000 negative emotions in the vicinity, initiating absorption..."
Cao Baming glanced to his side, seeing Solskjaer scolding his players with grumbles.
It seemed like the negative emotions were coming from the opposing players. This time, they had truly broken their spirit!
Hahaha, as long as he could crush the opponent, there would be enough negative emotions to absorb. This was too convenient!
On the way to the player tunnel, many fans were pushing and shoving, and among them were female fans with excellent figures and looks. They pushed past the security guards' unwanted advances to get a photo with Cao Baming.
Seeing this, Cao Baming smiled with satisfaction.
To gain such a following so soon after joining the team had far exceeded his expectations!
Although he couldn't take photos with everyone, he still gave the fans a smile and extended his hand to interact with them one by one.
Upon returning to the training room, his teammates were also very enthusiastic, blowing him compliments while drinking water.
"If it weren't for Cao Baming, we might have actually lost!"
"Your long-range shot was incredible, brother! Can you teach me?"
Nelson humbly came forward to ask for advice, and he was a forward, no less.
Cao Baming smiled and said, "No problem!"
But then he thought, oh no.
His shots were all based on trajectories planned by the system. How was he supposed to teach this?
"Alright! It's a deal, during the next training session!"
"Um... okay!"
He could only agree reluctantly, as he was already in too deep to back out now.
When he had some free time, Cao Baming suddenly remembered that the system had rewarded him with 10 skill points for the two consecutive Premier League wins.
What was he waiting for? He should add them now.
This time, he could finally choose for himself.
The previous attribute point allocations by the system were truly absurd. As a defender, he hadn't gained a single point in the most crucial defensive attributes.
Without hesitation, Cao Baming directly allocated all 10 points from this reward to his defensive attributes.
Afterward, the head coaches of Arsenal and Manchester United attended the post-match interviews.
Arteta no longer held back.
"Cao Baming is truly a treasure we've found! We're incredibly lucky!"
As soon as he said this, public opinion stirred up a storm.
What was even more astonishing was the announcement Manchester United made after the match.
Martial had suffered a fractured rib on his left side and muscle tears, and would require time to recover.
This diagnosis came from a hospital examination, so there should be no issues.
And this result also meant that he might not be able to play for the entire season.
Fans, recalling the replay of the incident afterward, felt a sense of absurdity.
Could it be that Cao Baming's slender physique was made of metal? What kind of physical confrontation was that!
Indeed, you can't judge a book by its cover!
Inside the locker room, the players celebrated happily and planned to go out for drinks that evening.
The day passed quickly.
Arsenal defeated Manchester United 2-1.
This result was clearly not enough for the media to go wild, and its buzz was quickly overshadowed by another match happening in La Liga.
Real Madrid 0-2 Espanyol.
This was quite interesting, a massive upset!
Although Benzema was not playing in this match due to physical reasons, Real Madrid's overall strength was still far superior to Espanyol's.
In terms of market value, the difference was several times over.
Yet, they lost the match.
Seeing the result, Cao Baming was also quite surprised.
He continued to look through the detailed stats and found that Wu Lei had helped the team score a goal.
It seemed he hadn't disgraced their countrymen!
This news undoubtedly exploded in China. With two outstanding young Chinese players performing brilliantly in top leagues like the Premier League and La Liga, fans were thoroughly delighted.
Especially as the World Cup at the end of the year drew closer, fans were no longer as lacking in confidence as in the past!
This time, the anticipation was sky-high, and they wished the knockout stage could start tomorrow!
The higher-ups at Paris Saint-Germain also expressed regret after seeing Cao Baming's outstanding performance.
Why didn't they keep him back then?
Such a cheap price and such immense ability, it was truly amazing!
Unfortunately, he had offended Mbappé on his very first day. This was truly unavoidable!
The higher-ups at Paris dared not go against Mbappé, they were not in a position to do so.
Amidst the intense football fervor, Cao Baming's name was mentioned more and more by the media.
He was naturally very pleased with this.
If he could build his reputation in the Premier League and even the international football scene earlier, wouldn't he be able to do whatever he wanted then?
The next day, Arteta called a meeting.
All the players, except those on leave, were present.
Cao Baming, just like last time, stood in the back corner.
The main topic of discussion was the previous match. Besides reviewing the game, the most important thing was to thoroughly analyze the cooperation between Cao Baming and his teammates.
