Chapter 274 – Side Story 108: Leader World Cup -13
***
A spectator who faints is taken to the hospital on a stretcher.
“That was a great kick.”
Referee Pablo González Blanco called me and handed me a yellow card.
As the name suggests, the referee of the World Cup final is from Spain.
And that means a referee who is familiar with my eccentricities.
‘Ha, I lived because I was the Spanish referee.’
I breathed a sigh of relief as I looked at the now familiar faces that I had often encountered in La Liga.
‘You’re lucky.’
I was lucky in many ways.
If it had been the English referee, whose authority comes first, or the German referee, who is famous for being boring, I would have been sent off.
But fortunately, the referee of the World Cup final was from Spain.
Our cheerful Spanish referee restarted the game with a dropped ball with a happy smile on his face, saying he saw a good(?) Scene in the World Cup final.
As soon as the game resumed, I clapped and encouraged my teammates.
“There’s not much left in the first half, so just take your time! All you have to do is score in the second half and win!”
The national team players, who were irritated because the flow was interrupted, calmed down after hearing my voice and safely returned the ball.
And not long after.
Beep-!
The first half ended with the referee’s whistle.
***
“Ah, really, what on earth is that damn bitch!”
As soon as Jooyun entered the locker room, he poured out his complaints about the spectators who invaded the stadium.
“Really! “If I had pushed a little harder, I could have broken through!”
And the other players also agreed with Jooyun’s reaction, and the atmosphere in the locker room instantly became chaotic.
Clap-!
When Jesus Joo saw the national team players looking very dissatisfied, he applauded and drew attention to himself.
“Everyone calm down! “It’s already happened.”
“But… !!”
“Know! I’m angry! But that goes for me too! But the game isn’t over yet, right? It’s enough to get angry after the game is over. We still have the second half left. What we need now is not regret or anger about the past, but to talk about how we will spend the remaining 45 minutes!”
Coach James Cook smiled at the sight of Jesus comforting his players as captain.
“I also agree with Jejus’ opinion.”
And the coach explained the second half tactics in a flowing and natural manner.
“Listen carefully. Germany will push hard at the start of the second half. But it doesn’t matter. “The fate that was predestined cannot be changed by the Germans’ final struggle.”
“There is no replacement. Just don’t back down even an inch and fight tenaciously. As long as Germany’s offensive is blocked at the start of the second half, the same trend as the first half will be repeated. Trust me and hold on. “If you don’t trust me, trust the sweat you shed on the training ground and on the ground and the teammates next to you.”
“We have the sharpest spears in the world and the strongest shields in the world. There is only one step left to win. Sacrifice a little more for that one step! Run one step further for each other! The moment when those steps come together! We will write history today.”
After speaking, coach James Cook slowly looked around the locker room, which was heated by the players’ fighting spirit.
The players’ eyes were full of confidence toward victory.
Director James Cook smiled.
The Korean national team was no longer a one-man team that achieved results through the sacrifice of the Lord Jesus.
They became a team to win the World Cup, which was the final piece of the puzzle for the Lord Jesus.
The moment the director finishes speaking. The players gathered in a circle with their arms around each other, and Ko Seok-jun looked at the players gathered in a circle and shouted in Korean.
“Ruler! Lord Jesus. It’s time to put the final piece of the puzzle together for this nemesis.”
“Seokjun…”
“Screw you. “Are you moved?”
“No, why are you repeating what I have to say? Did you really want to be the captain so badly?”
“…”
“Hehe. I’m kidding. Ruler. Kids. It’s time to go get the trophy! Let’s go!”
***
As the second half began, Germany launched a strong offensive, as coach James Cook said.
[Germany launches a strong attack at the start of the second half.]
[Karl Trapp catches the ball! Go Seok-jun blocks. I’m giving credit to Carl Trapp because he’s not able to do it.]
[This is a player eating together with Ko Seok-jun in Dortmund. Since they know each other well, they play cautiously.]
[Ah. At the moment I spoke, Thomas Hesse attempted a dribble break.]
[You are a player who attended the U-17 World Cup held in Korea in the past, right? Now that I think about it, the opponent in the finals back then was Germany.]
[I see? This somehow seems like something good will happen. Junazaret blocks the way of Thomas Hesse, who is trying to dribble through.]
[Thomas Hesse is trying to break through to Nazareth, but there is no way! Junazareth successfully blocks it!]
South Korea faced several crises, but all players ran around to the point where they had a taste in their mouths and succeeded in stopping Germany’s attack.
[South Korea’s next counterattack! Junazareth strikes and starts running at high speed!]
And the crisis turned into an opportunity.
[It’s fast! Lord Nazareth! He succeeds in shaking off two defenders in an instant! 4 attack, 5 defense. Korea faces a golden opportunity!]
Junazaret, who continued to drive the ball, thrust a through ball into the space in front of Jubaul on the right side.
[Junasaret’s through pass! It will be delivered to Jupaul!]
Joubaul deceived the German defenders by feigning his way into the penalty box and ran along the touch line.
As Lord Paul raised his head and looked at the positions of his teammates, he saw the Lord Jesus entering the penalty box.
The moment Paul saw the Lord Jesus, his legs moved as if he were possessed by a ghost, and he raised a cross towards the Lord Jesus.
“Wow, fuck. “My life is a cross.”
Once again, a cross that seems unlikely to succeed flies toward the Lord Jesus.
The German defenders rushed to block the cross, but Joo Paul’s cross flew leisurely past the heads of the German defenders and landed precisely on Joo Jesus’ forehead.
Kang-!
With a dull sound, the well-taken shot escaped Matthias Bühüner’s hand and was sucked into the corner of the goal.
“Vaaaaamos-!!!!!!!”
The Lord Jesus, who succeeded in scoring for the first time in his life on the stage of the World Cup finals, let out all the resentment that had built up in his heart.
***
[Aaaaah! I’m in! I went in! Korea’s precious first goal! Korea is starting to move ahead!]
[Korean players run towards and embrace the Korean captain who roars at the corner flag!]
“Hala Korea-!! Hala Jesus-!!”
[Ah-! The Korean people are pouring in their support for Joo Jesus!]
[The Lord Jesus, the god of soccer, is leading Korea to the glory of winning the championship! We are now living in the era of the Lord Jesus!!]
***
It’s been a long time since I lost my temper and roared at the fact that I only scored a goal.
It was only after roaring like that for a long time that I could see the surroundings.
“Daddy-!!”
The children were happy with their arms raised when their father scored.
“Hey, baby!”
Yuna was shedding tears for some reason.
She wanted to burst into the stands and hug Yuna, who was crying, but she had no choice but to hold back because of the yellow card she received in the first half.
‘Really, this bitch is a nuisance in many ways.’
I cursed the crowd who had invaded the ground and gave Yuna a heart with her smile.
After seeing the heart on her fingers, Yuna wiped away her tears and made a large heart with her hands.
“Lord Jesus, pay double taxes!!!!”
The audience exploded with jealousy at the sight of us expressing affection without hesitation.
***
The game resumed with Germany’s kickoff.
‘Maybe it’s because it’s been a while since I roared, but I feel refreshed?’
The steps of the Lord Jesus, who had relieved all the pain that had accumulated in his heart, were infinitely lighter.
“Thomas! Watch your back!”
“Uh? Lord Jesus, why is he like that?”
Not only the German national team, but even the Korean national team were taken aback by the sight of Joo Jesus actively applying pressure from the front.
Jesus Joo took the ball away from Thomas Hesse with a neat tackle.
“Go up! It’s a counterattack!”
For a moment, I was taken aback by the unexpected forward pressure from the Lord Jesus. The Korean national team quickly came to their senses and launched a counterattack.
“Verdammt (damn you)! Stop it for foul play!”
Germany’s players tried to stop Korea’s counterattack with fouls.
‘The body is light.’
There was no way. Jesus Joo easily broke through all the obstacles standing in his way and entered Germany’s penalty box with ease.
“Fuck! Reduce your shooting angle, you bastards!”
Matthias Bühüner’s screams echo throughout the ground.
Pwow-!.
The moment the Lord Jesus’ shot went into the net.
Sloshing-.
The Lord Jesus looked up to heaven with his arms outstretched and cried out.
“Finally, me!!! We did it!!! “What a fucking world!!!”
