Early in the morning on the day of the Champions League semi-final second leg match.
Lewandowski woke up a minute before the alarm went off. He started stretching right away to check his condition.
This is the routine that Jin-ho Son recommended when I was in a slump. At first, it was a little bothersome, but now it has become a real routine, and I feel anxious if I don’t stretch.
“Oh. You feel light?”
Lewandowski nodded after finishing his stretching. His body was in good condition and he felt good. Was it because he had been stretching regularly? His muscle flexibility was also getting better, and he was in the best condition of the season.
“Have a good day today too.”
“Okay. I’ll be back.”
Lewandowski had a quick breakfast with Anna, who he had engaged to be married to at the end of the season, before heading to Brakel’s training ground.
Then, a young-faced Asian boy appeared, observing the surrounding players with an old-man-like expression.
“Gino!”
Now, only in his second year as a professional, Son Jin-ho is a promising player, but with his undeniable skills, he has quickly become a key player for Dortmund. He showed a play that is closer to the experience of a veteran midfielder than the flashes of a promising player, but is it because of Son Jin-ho’s atmosphere? Lewandowski did not find it strange.
‘Well, it was a bit unusual from the first time we met.’
Lewandowski recalls his first meeting with Son Jin-ho. At the time, Son Jin-ho was a promising prospect with no particular characteristics other than his skin color, but Lewandowski clearly remembers his first meeting with Son Jin-ho.
That would be the case, what promising player in the world would be watching the main players training and making an expression like, ‘Oh. That’s not how you play soccer.’
Some of the veteran players looked upset at the prospect’s slightly arrogant expression, but they didn’t scold him too much, thinking that he must not have known better because he was a prospect.
Well, if you scold a young Asian player, you could have been criticized for racial discrimination.
“I’m in good shape today. Pass the ball to me.”
Anyway, Lewandowski approached Topgol Master Son Jin-ho, who wanted to train him, and told him that he was in good condition. After hearing Lewandowski’s words, Son Jin-ho responded with a trembling expression.
“You always tell me to pass the ball because you’re in good shape, but you end up blowing my assists.”
Lewandowski was momentarily speechless at Son Jin-ho’s words. Even on days when he was not in good condition, he asked for a pass, saying that he was in good condition, and he actually blew it.
“No, this time it’s real.”
While Lewandowski was trying to convince Son Jin-ho about how good his current condition was.
As match time approached, Dortmund’s players boarded the club bus from Brakel’s training ground and headed to the stadium.

“When you walk through a storm!”
Dortmund fans entered Signal Iduna Park with excitement in their hearts. Today’s match would determine who would advance to the Champions League final.
The situation is favorable for Dortmund after a 2-2 draw away at the Santiago Bernabeu.
“You’ll never walk alone!!”
The fans were hoping Dortmund would make it to the Champions League final, and they were singing their hearts out before the game even started.
Is it thanks to the passionate support of those fans?
[Dortmund players are showing light movement overall.]
Dortmund players dominated the game from the start, pressuring Real Madrid.
[Dortmund has been showing an extremely strong performance at home this season, right? It seems like it will be a difficult match for Real Madrid!]
Among the Dortmund players who showed off their light moves, the one who stood out the most was Lewandowski.
Lewandowski, who was said to be in good condition, started going wild as soon as the game started, receiving cheers from the Dortmund fans.
[While we were talking, Son Jin-ho caught the ball from the side! Son Jin-ho saw Lewandowski penetrating into the penalty box!!]
As soon as Son Jin-ho received the ball, Lewandowski broke Real Madrid’s offside line with exquisite timing and ran into the penalty box.
He believed that Son Jin-ho would somehow pass the ball towards him and entered Real Madrid’s penalty box without hesitation.
Lewandowski did not lose focus even under the pressure of Sergio Ramos, who started as a centre-back in place of Pepe, who was suspended due to an accumulated yellow card.
Son Jin-ho’s pass flew towards him, far over Raphael Varane’s height.
Bam.
Lewandowski shook off Ramos’ jersey with a wild swing of his hand, then trapped Son Jin-ho’s flying lobbed pass with his chest before firing a sensational turning shot.

Boohoo─!
The moment Lewandowski’s turning shot found the Real Madrid goal net.
Swoosh!
“Jaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!”

“Borussia! Borussia!”
Dortmund fans raised their arms and roared.
“Did you see? I told you I was in really good condition today?”
Lewandowski, who connected the shooting motion naturally like flowing water, pointed at Jin-ho Son and smiled brightly. Jin-ho Son, who saw him, burst into a light laugh and said.
“No. It was true what I said about being in good condition.”
***
[Beautiful pass, and beautiful finish. Robert Lewandowski and Gino Thorne! Fantastic performances today!]
[Yes, and Son has a high chance of winning the assist king award with this assist. No, it’s practically a certainty. Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who was competing for the assist king award, was eliminated in the quarterfinals.]
[Yes. Contrary to expectations that he would suffer from the second-year jinx before the season started, Gino has been fantastic so far. If Dortmund win the Champions League, won’t he become the youngest Ballon d’Or winner?]
[Hmm… Son will have to overcome a lot to win the Ballon d’Or. But that’s why I’m rooting for him even more.]
The broadcast PD gave a warning to the commentator who was subtly bringing up the issue of racial discrimination. The commentators nodded at the PD’s warning and quickly changed the subject. In Europe, where there are many immigrants from Africa and the Middle East, racial discrimination is a sensitive topic.
[Yes, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are not easy to overcome. Anyway, thanks to Lewandowski’s Wonder Goal, Dortmund is ahead!]
***
A wonder goal from Lewandowski put Dortmund ahead 1-0.
In fact, I didn’t think we would lose even before the game started. This was our home stadium, Signal Iduna Park.
However, we couldn’t help but be surprised by Lewandowski’s wonder goal that came as soon as the game started.
A precise finish followed by a clean chest trap. It was a moment that showed the potential to touch the divine realm in the future.
‘Lewandowski’s performance at an age when he was well past the twilight of his playing career was certainly impressive, but the meme that came out at the time was that Lewandowski’s vision was flowing backwards.’
It’s a new thought, but I wonder what it would have been like if Lewandowski had met a good coach when he was younger, like Ronaldo meeting Alex Ferguson or Lionel Messi meeting Pep Guardiola.
A good player will eventually stand out, but wouldn’t he be able to grow even faster if he works with a good coach during the period when he is growing the most?
Unlike the original history where no one but me made a professional debut, you could tell just by looking at the players from Geumsun High School currently playing in the Korean professional league.
To be honest, I don’t think Kihyun Shichi is capable as a director…
– It’s me?!?!
Well, well, the people were nice though.
Anyway, we took the lead with Lewandowski’s wonder goal and continued to push Real Madrid.
***
After scoring the opening goal, Dortmund gained momentum and pressed Real Madrid even harder.
However, that does not mean that Real Madrid just took the beating quietly.
Just before the end of the first half. Real Madrid’s counterattack.
Mesut Ozil was cloaked by Dortmund’s strong pressure as soon as the game started.
However, as the first half ended, the concentration of the Dortmund players waned and the pressure on Ozil momentarily eased, and Ozil took advantage of the gap to successfully deliver a threatening killer pass that sent shivers down Dortmund’s spines.
Ozil’s pass is delivered in front of Ronaldo, who runs slightly diagonally to avoid being offside and cuts into the space behind Dortmund.
Roman Weidenfeller runs out of the goal to stop Ronaldo, who makes a spectacular off-the-ball move.
Ronaldo managed to beat Roman Weidenfeller with his signature crab dribble.
‘Are you watching? Jin-ho Son. I am also the star of today’s game.’
Ronaldo then takes a shot.
The moment Ronaldo smiled as he sensed he was about to score.
Ronaldo’s shot deflected off a suddenly out-going leg and went wide of the goal line.
Ronaldo was momentarily taken aback by the sudden tackle.
“Hostia! Puta Madre!”
Ronaldo, who confirmed the protagonist of the bridge, did not spare his praise.
“Whew─. Hey. Don’t be so noisy.”
It was Son Jin-ho who blocked Ronaldo’s shot.
Son Jin-ho, who started as a central midfielder, felt ominous as the pressure from the Dortmund players on Mesut Ozil eased, and immediately returned to the defensive line to block the shot just in the nick of time.
Son Jin-ho takes a deep breath only after confirming that Ronaldo’s shot went out of the goal line.
“Gino! Good job! You’re better than our stupid defense!”
Roman Weidenfeller approached Son Jin-ho and lifted him up with enthusiastic praise.
Just before the end of the first half, Dortmund managed to avoid a crisis where they would have lost the momentum to Real Madrid thanks to Son Jin-ho’s performance.
