My Girlfriend Wants Victory - Chapter 233

The Man.

It means ‘The Team’ in English, and is a phrase that well represents the characteristic of German football that values ​​organization.

‘… As expected, it is a totalitarian country.’

This characteristic of German football is also clearly evident in the gegenpressing used by Dortmund.

For effective gegenpressing, the backing line had to be high.

This narrowed the gap between players and made it difficult to play the game with short passes.

Of course, with the back line being high, they could have collapsed with a single long pass from the back to the front.

Jurgen Klopp overcame this with his organisational skills.

Hummels and Subotic have been playing together for a long time under Jurgen Klopp.

Neither of them were particularly quick defenders, but when Mats Hummels would come forward to defend, Subotic would often stay in behind and try to stop United’s attacks, even if it meant committing fouls.

Subotic was booked in the process, but it was no bad thing for Dortmund, as they managed to turn the game around by scoring two goals.

Anyway, halftime started with Dortmund scoring two goals in a row in the first half, and the team was down 3-2 on aggregate.

I tried to change the stagnant locker room atmosphere.

“If we lose today and don’t win the treble, Ferguson will stay as manager of Manchester United! Manchester United for life! This is completely Bolshevik! This is revolutionary!”

If, in the future, the conversations in Manchester United’s locker room are leaked, won’t everything I say be called a hypocritical thought?

“Huh. You think so?”

Well… that would be a story that would come after I survive.

The expressions of the players who had been laughing at my cheerful and positive appearance suddenly hardened.

“But Jin-ho. You must be laughing and chatting after scoring in today’s game, right?”

A cold sweat started to run down my face at the cold voice coming from behind me.

“…chris.”

“SiU?”

“By any chance, is there an old man behind me?”

Without turning my head, I asked a question to Cristiano Ronaldo, who was standing right in front of me.

“Son Jin-ho, I don’t understand why you would say that. Manchester United has always been a team that aims to win the championship. That kind of defeatist mindset doesn’t suit us. We will unite under the great leadership of the boss and achieve victory.”

And Ronaldo responded by boldly cutting me off.

[We will broadcast the second half of the game following the first half.]

[Despite being in a losing situation, the Manchester United players look more relaxed than expected. Is it because they are strong?]

[Well…. Even so, Son Jin-ho’s expression is unusually stiff.]

[It seems like he has been mentally prepared during halftime. I wonder what kind of performance Son Jin-ho will show in the second half.]

[I see. By the way, there seem to be more fans wearing Son Jin-ho’s uniform from his time at Dortmund than I thought at the stadium.]

[Yes. I think it’s amazing that he still receives love from his former team even though it’s been quite some time since he transferred.]

└ Earlier, that old man, Jin-ho Son, almost scored a goal with a header, so they blew a fuse.

└ Chew lol

└ Judging from the fact that he was surprised after blowing the shovel, it seems like he didn’t intend to do it but his heart made him do it ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

└ My heart told me to do it… That was total love.

***

Erwin Müller, a senior soccer fan who has supported Dortmund every day without fail for over 50 years, now 60 years.

He visited Signal Iduna Park wearing his usual Dortmund jersey with Son Jin-ho’s number on it.

“Grandpa! Where are you?”

“Come here. Grandpa, you can’t let go of my hand, right?”

What was different from usual was that he entered with his young grandson?

“wow….”

The grandson, who was born the year Son Jin-ho made his debut in Dortmund, has grown to the point where he can speak fluently.

Erwin Müller looked at his grandson, who was looking at the ground with bright eyes, with affectionate eyes.

‘When I was young, I visited this place holding my grandfather’s hand.’

He unknowingly recalled his childhood past.

If there is a bright and hopeful future for children, there is a past called memories for old people.

Where past, present, and future coexist.

– Dortmund’s star returns to Signal Iduna Park! Gino!!

The sound of the stadium announcer introducing Jin-ho Son reverberates throughout the ground.

Son Jin-ho, who decorated a proud page of history, bowed his head to the cheers of fans and expressed his gratitude.

Erwin Müller began to feel a sense of sadness deep in his heart.

Although, in the scene where Son Jin-ho heads the ball, he unknowingly blew a fuse.

Erwin Muller had no doubt that even Jin-ho Son would understand this much.

“But, Grandpa.”

“Why are you calling?”

“Gino is on the opposing team, so why are you wearing Gino’s uniform?”

“Because Gino is always in my heart.”

As the first half ended and his grandson, who was like a treasure to him, started asking questions, Erwin Müller smiled and answered his grandson’s questions.

“Hey… What is that! It’s weird!”

Erwin Müller added with a benevolent expression to his grandson’s continued grumbling.

“Hey, Gino will always be in our hearts.”

of course….

“Fuck!! (Fuck!!)”

Erwin Müller’s affectionate expression, like that of other Dortmund fans, did not last long.

As soon as the second half started, Manchester United’s full-scale counterattack began.

***

12 minutes into the second half of the intense match between Dortmund and Manchester United.

[Wow, Son Jin-ho’s fighting spirit is really amazing. He’s running like he’s going to die if he doesn’t score a goal today!]

The one at the center of Manchester United’s counterattack was not Ronaldo or Van Persie, but Son Jin-ho.

[By the way, didn’t Son Jin-ho leave an impressive message to Dortmund fans before the game started?]

[Yes, you said the best thing you could do for the Dortmund fans was to show them at Signal Iduna Park how much better you have become as a player?]

Son Jin-ho’s appearance of showing off hustle play without sparing his body, combined with the words he left before the game, began to capture the hearts of soccer fans.

Choaaaak─!

Son Jin-ho chased the ball with all his might as it tried to escape the touchline.

[I saved the ball from escaping! Son Jin-ho!]

After making sure the linesman hadn’t raised his flag, he leapt from his seat and slid a penetrating pass straight into the space in front of Sadio Mane.

If it had been normal, they could have blocked the ball with a foul before Sadio Mane could turn around and go in, but Dortmund’s players thought the ball had gone out of bounds and momentarily lost their defensive concentration.

This had fatal consequences.

Sadio Mane took advantage of the Dortmund players’ lack of concentration and broke into the back space.

He calmly attempted a shot as soon as he entered the penalty box.

Mane’s low shot evaded Roman Weidenfeller’s hands and headed towards the goal without much resistance.

Taeaaaa …

But Sadio Mane’s shot hit the goalpost by a hair’s breadth.

The ball bounces towards the penalty box.

The moment Sadio Mane held his head as he missed a golden opportunity.

A red uniform was seen running quickly between the yellow uniforms.

Just before Lukasz Paszczek cleared the ball.

Son Jin-ho successfully flew ahead and put the ball into the goal.

[Huh…? Huh?!?]

[Go, gooooooooooooooooo─!]

[No, when did this player run all the way here!!!]

***

When Dortmund fans saw Son Jin-ho running around like crazy with his head on the ground,

‘Gino was really good at putting things like that in.’

Son Jin-ho recalled the days when he played in a Dortmund uniform.

Dortmund fans are lost in memories.

Time flies.

There is not much time left until the end of the game.

Both teams went on the offensive, squeezing every last bit of their remaining stamina as if they had no intention of going into overtime.

Son Jin-ho, who read the pass one step ahead, blocked Nuri Shahin’s pass.

“All attack!”

As Son Jin-ho’s instructions reverberated across the pitch, Manchester United began to counterattack.

“SIUUUUUUU─!”

The first to run was Cristiano Ronaldo, who jumped out before Son Jin-ho could even give instructions.

Cristiano Ronaldo runs into the Dortmund camp, making strange cries as if he were an animal.

Son Jin-ho passed the ball forward towards Ronaldo.

The ball eluded the Dortmund defenders and found Cristiano Ronaldo.

Cristiano Ronaldo took a long first touch on Son Jin-ho’s pass and started running towards the Dortmund camp, successfully entering the penalty box.

Although Ronaldo would normally be eager to score, this time he chose to pass rather than shoot.

‘Son Jin-ho, you owe me this!’

Because I was moved by Son Jin-ho’s desperate efforts to survive.

Without even turning his head, Ronaldo used the little toe of his right foot to pass to the penalty spot.

Son Jin-ho swung his feet with all his might, not losing focus on the ball even as his legs gave out and he slipped on the grass.

[Shoot! Oh, no! Ronaldo’s pass! Ronaldo’s pass to Son Jin-ho and Son Jin-ho! Aaaah! Son Jin-ho puts the ball into the empty goal and reverses it! Reverse it! Manchester United succeeds in reversing the score!!!]

The ball touched Son Jin-ho’s toes and went straight into the goal net.

[He is showing the Dortmund fans at Signal Iduna Park how much better a player he has become, just like he said.]

***

Manchester United turn the game around again with Son Jin-ho’s multi-goal.

[Ah! So Dortmund need two goals to advance to the semi-finals due to away goals?]

Alex Ferguson took off Son Jin-ho, who was showing his physical limitations, and brought in Smalling to lock things down.

[Kevin De Bruyne shoots straight away!]

Dortmund didn’t give up until the end and kept beating Manchester United.

[Ah! Chris Smalling’s physical defense! Even the promising players of Manchester United are not sparing their bodies!]

They failed to score another goal as they were blocked by Manchester United’s ragtag defense that spared no effort.

Lewandowski’s shot was saved by David de Gea, and the referee blew the final whistle as Michael Carrick cleared the second ball into the penalty area.

[The match is over! Manchester United beat Dortmund and advance to the Champions League semi-finals!!]

***

After the game ended, Son Jin-ho went out onto the field to express his gratitude to the fans.

At the time, he was careful not to offend the Dortmund fans by thanking the away fans of Manchester United and the home fans of Dortmund.

Clap clap… .

A small applause is heard from the home fans at Signal Iduna Park.

The small sound of applause that started in one corner soon began to resonate throughout Signal Iduna Park.

“Gino! Since you beat us, you should advance to the finals!”

“Did you know that this year’s Champions League final will be held in Berlin?”

“If Manchester United advance to the final, we will go and cheer them on!”

“Berlin! Berlin! We are going to Berlin! (Berlin! Berlin! We are going to Berlin!)”

Soon, the stadium was filled with thunderous applause and the voices of Dortmund fans cheering for Son Jin-ho’s future.
