Chapter 148 – God Hand and General Chal – 2
#
[Korea’s Joo Jesus scores the first goal! Wow, that’s incredible jumping power!]
[Key… It’s a classic shot for a header. It’s a beautiful goal that only changes direction to match the forehead.]
[… After Joo Jesus scores a goal, he extends his left hand in front of Richard, who is called the lion of England. What does it mean?]
[Well… I’m not sure, but the referee sees Joo Jesus’ actions as a provocative celebration and gives him a yellow card and warns him.]
[As it is an evaluation match, I hope I don’t get kicked out too early.]
#
After giving me a warning, I turned my back and looked at the referee walking away.
It’s an evaluation match, but you’re giving me a warning for celebrating early in the first half?
There is such an inflexible referee in the world.
I shook my head at the level of strictness that was different from that of the referee who served as referee in the previous friendly match against Spain.
Go Seok-jun, who saw me receiving a card, approached me with a serious expression and spoke.
“Hey, what if I already get the card?”
“Comrade, true soccer occurs when you are not afraid of cards and punishments! Have you been corrupted by dirty capitalist soccer?”
At first glance, it seemed like I heard a voice in my ear saying, “Fuck you!”
“Nice score!”
I was too busy exchanging high-fives with my teammates who were surrounding me and celebrating my score, so I just passed on.
After the celebration, let’s come down to the half line.
The facial expressions of most of the England national soccer team players caught my eye.
They all looked embarrassed after being hit by an unexpected blow.
Right here, there was a divide between players who had met the Lord Jesus, whom I know very well, and players who had not.
I’m sure over there, friends who met me in the Champions League or La Liga would have warned me about me.
However, there was a gap as big as heaven and earth between hearing a warning and receiving a direct hit in a match.
When I got hit, I felt like the game wouldn’t be easy.
England’s coach came to the touchline and actively gave instructions.
“@$*!(*%”
Hmm. Are you from Liverpool?
I can’t understand a word of what you’re saying.
#
South Korea gained momentum after Joo Jesus’ first goal and pushed England hard.
[Kim Jin-soo gives a long stab to Kim Dong-jun, who is trying to overlap!]
Kim Jin-su’s pass was headed to Kim Dong-jun. Kim Dong-jun dug into the center and hit a shot.
[Kim Dong-jun digging into the center!! Fold once and shoot!!! Ah-! It misses the goal slightly!]
The England national team’s expression hardened as Korea continued to attack.
No matter how recently the media has said that the Korean national team should also be considered a contender for the championship,
Still, in the eyes of Europe and South America, the so-called mainstream soccer world, Korea was a country close to the periphery.
The fact that England’s national soccer team, which prides itself on being the home of soccer, was defeated by the Korean national team, which is considered a weaker team than its own, was humiliating in itself.
In addition, even though their captain, Richard, provoked them, there was also the booing of hostile spectators coming from behind.
“Wuuuuu-!”
It played a role in irritating their nerves, and as the more sensitive English players played, the game between England and Korea naturally became more rough.
40 minutes in the first half.
Go Seok-jun fell to the ground holding his face.
The referee gave a warning to James Daniels, who hit Ko Seok-jun in the face with his arm.
“Beep!”
[Ah, the game is getting rougher? Since it is an evaluation match before the World Cup, we need to calm down a little so that the players can play without injury.]
[The referee gives a yellow card to James Daniels, who committed a foul.]
James Daniels protested to the referee with an aggrieved expression. The referee shook his head resolutely and pointed to his elbow.
[James Daniels says it’s unfair, but the referee gives him a stern warning for hitting him in the face with his elbow.]
[If you look again now, wow… The referee saw it correctly.]
[Korea’s free kick, Kim Dong-jun is preparing for the free kick. I think it’s a strategy that will last a long time.]
#
From afar, Kim Dong-jun was seen preparing for a free kick.
Normally, I would have waited outside the penalty box.
The World Cup is not far away, so I took a seat in the penalty box to take it seriously.
“I hope Richard will give you some recognition.”
As I took my seat in the penalty box, our lion friend Richard started circling by my side.
“Hehe… Jejus, you deserve the Ballon d’Or, as I have acknowledged. But the reason you are so good is that you haven’t met this body. “I will make you realize that in this game today.”
I told the fact to the guy who was saying something strange.
“I already scored one goal.”
“No, no, no, no”
The guy shook his head and made excuses about the facts.
“You know that the reason you scored a goal is that your body wasn’t truly engaged in the game, right?”
Seeing the slightly ugly appearance of this guy, I just ignored it and focused on the game.
I hear the referee’s whistle in my ears
Kim Dong-jun ran slowly and sent the free kick into the penalty box.
The ball that Kim Dong-jun posted flew towards me.
I slapped Richard’s face with my palm as he grabbed my uniform.
“A Billion-!”
I tried jumping. Because I hit Richard in the face, my jump timing was slightly delayed, and I failed to hit the ball on his head.
At that moment when I felt regretful about not scoring, the goddess of soccer raised my hand.
The ball hit the opposing defender’s back and bounced to Richard’s side.
Richard lying down and the ball next to him.
Let’s take a look.
General Chal, my soul partner, appeared.
[Step on that bastard’s legs!]
‘Then what about the ball?’
[Alpano]
After hearing General Chal’s words, I was troubled.
Ah. Step on it or put it in
That’s the problem!
While I was hesitating, other defenders came running to clear the ball.
[Step on it-!!]
Despite the shouts of General Chal, I, who had the DNA of a striker engraved on me, could not let go of my desire to score.
In the end, I decided to take two paths at the same time.
‘Step on and hit.’
It was strange to see the defenders who were running to collect the ball suddenly start walking.
Once I decided on a goal, I immediately took action.
Tuk-!
“Evil!”
Dribbling the ball, he naturally stepped on Richard’s legs and took a shot.
Pwow-!
My thunderous shot shook the net, making the goalkeeper not even think about moving.
After successfully scoring, I ran straight to the corner flag and celebrated.
“…”
The audience was looking at me with a shocked expression as I roared.
“… “You idiot, a cat entered the stadium and the game was stopped.”
While I was standing at the corner flag with a confused look on my face, Go Seok-jun ran over and explained the situation.
“… Ah.”
I smiled shyly and returned.
Luckily, no one saw me step on Richard’s leg.
There was nothing said.

[Against England, the first half ended with Korea taking a one-point lead.]
[It’s a bit disappointing because I think we could have had a 2-point lead if the game hadn’t been stopped right before the end of the first half due to the intrusion of a cat.]
[Yes. But the most important thing is that the World Cup is just around the corner. This means you won’t get injured, right?]
[Yes, that’s right. I hope the game can be played in a more calm manner in the second half.]
[There are now 45 minutes remaining in the game. Will Korea’s last friendly match be crowned with victory? The second half of the match between Korea and England starts now.]
[Yes, from what we can see now, England has made quite a big tactical change.]
[Yes. It seems like the idea is to bring in the Stone brothers to strengthen the midfield battle and at the same time aim for a kick from both players.]
└ Is the General Chal derby on?
└ Lord Jesus vs Brother Stone;;; Derby, a descendant of General Chal.
└ Ah… Our players shouldn’t get injured, but isn’t the England manager trying to get players injured because his skills aren’t enough? ㅡ
[The Stone brothers actually have a very rough image, but they are players with quite good kicking power. In particular, his older brother Charlie Stone boasts good kicking ability, sometimes taking free kicks at Liverpool.]
[Yes. Both Stone brothers are good players…]
Beep-!
[… Substitute Charlie Stone receives a yellow card. He pulled Kim Jin-su’s neck while he was dribbling.]
└ What’s good? LOL
└ Haha
└ Don’t you have anything to say? Can’t you say anything?
.
.
.
[Ah! The game ends with the referee’s whistle. Fortunately, players from both teams finished the game safely without any major injuries.]
Game over.
South Korea 2:1 England
[Republic of Korea, which also won against England, expressed gratitude to Charlie Adam, the main player in the victory. ‘I dedicate all this glory to Charlie Adam.’]
[Charlie Adam, taken aback by Jejusu’s interview, said, ‘… Can someone explain to me what’s going on?’]
[Republic of Korea recorded a total victory in three friendly matches! Aiming for the World Cup!]
#
3 days after the evaluation match ended.
The Korean national soccer team is on its way to departure.
[National team leaving for China. Director Utilike ‘I will do my best to bring about the best results’]
[National team captain Joo Jesus. ‘The World Cup is not a place to gain experience, but a place to prove. I will prove it with my grades.’]
Let’s get on a plane and fly for about an hour to arrive at Beijing International Airport.
A huge number of Chinese reporters and people were waiting for the Korean national team.
“Waaah-! Lord Jesus-!”
The Lord Jesus waved his hand at the fans who were cheering his name.
“Zue Esu, how far can the Chinese national team rise? “Korea, a small country, made it to the semifinals in the World Cup held in their country, so wouldn’t it be possible for us, a large country, to advance to the finals?”
“Is it possible that Jesus Joo’s father is a Korean-Chinese? Doesn’t he want to play for the Chinese national team?”
He slowly opened his mouth, ignoring the reporters asking questions.
“Is this the country of Tiananmen?”
