Shooting Trajectory is Visible - Chapter 122

=======================================================
Today is Hannover’s match day.
Kim Shin-ah was worried about whether she should watch the game like usual and sleep or study a little more and sleep.
“I heard that my brother isn’t coming out today···.”
Did you say you couldn’t play due to a wrist injury?
There’s no major problem with his wrist, but he said he’s not playing in this match as a precaution because if he gets injured again, it could lead to a major injury. He was whining a lot in the group chat.
Kim Shin-ah continued to walk around the house, contemplating whether to just watch the game and go to bed, or to study a little more and then go to bed.
“I’ve decided!”
Kim Shin-ah went to the TV. Okay. Let’s just watch it!
Kim Shin-ah had been watching Hannover’s matches without fail since the second half. She had grown attached to the team, and even though Kim Min-woo could not play, she still wanted to see how the team would perform.
There were also days when I didn’t want to study when Hanover was playing…
“Dad! Aren’t you watching the game?”
“Yeah. Dad’s tired. And you said Minwoo isn’t coming out?”
“That’s true, but… Okay. Then go in and rest, Dad.”
Dad seemed busy lately. These days, it was hard to even see him except during meal times, including on weekends.
Kim Shin-ah herself also had a hard time coming home from school, but she actively used the recipes she learned from her mother because she felt sorry for her father who worked so hard for the family.
“Daughter! Just do this. Do you understand?”
In my memory, my mother taught me not only how to cook, but also how to make recipes. The recipes were rotated every two weeks.
On the first day, kimchi stew and scrambled eggs. On the second day, stir-fried beef with seasoned seaweed. On the third day, ramen. On the fourth day, pork rice bowl and egg soup. On the fifth day, delivery food… It was like that.
‘Reality is annoying, so I tend to eat the kimchi stew from the first day until the fourth day···.’
And as soon as I finished eating the kimchi stew, it was the 5th day and I would order delivery food.
But lately, I’ve been putting in a lot of effort because my dad seems to be having a hard time.
Shin-ah briefly recalled an old memory.
“Dad! But can you help me clean the house and wash the dishes······ Okay?”
Dad comes home, washes up, eats, and then falls completely asleep.
“What on earth are you doing at the company?”
Dad, who gets home by 10 o’clock at the earliest.
Because she couldn’t wake her father up in that situation and ask him to help her with the dishes or cleaning the house, Kim Shin-ah left him sleeping on the sofa and took care of those annoying tasks herself.
Actually, it wasn’t that difficult.
The robot vacuum cleaner does the house cleaning for you, and the dishwasher does the dishes for you.
What am I doing?
“Just click and the machines will do it all.”
Just operate the machine and you’re done.
Cleaning? Click! Robot Vacuum Cleaner!
Washing the dishes? Dishwasher click!
···Well, it’s a bit of a hassle to have to put detergent in it or put the dishes inside, but it doesn’t take long.
The only thing that could be called ‘cleaning’ was collecting and throwing away trash. It was a bit of a hassle because I had to do it while going to school.
“Dad! Wake up! Go inside and sleep!”
The next thing to do is to wake up Dad from the sofa and put him on the bed in the bedroom. Kim Shin-ah has also slept on the sofa a few times, but when she sleeps on the sofa, she never completely gets tired.
Even when you sleep, you should sleep on a soft surface. The sofa isn’t furniture made for sleeping, and considering your age, your back will probably get worse.
‘The most troublesome thing is buying groceries.’
At first, I used to go to places like marts and buy things directly, but these days, I tend to buy everything online. When will I ever go and buy everything? It’s annoying…
So, even though Kim Shin-ah took on the role of a mother after her mother disappeared from home, she didn’t feel that it was too difficult.
As times have advanced, machines can do everything for you with just a few clicks of your fingers.
“When will a machine that cooks for you come out?”
Actually, there was a solution to cooking too.
Kimchi stew, stir-fried pork, scrambled eggs, these days, they are all sold as convenience foods.
All you had to do was microwave the already finished items for a few minutes or heat them on a gas stove.
But Kim Shin-ah didn’t do that.
‘It doesn’t have much flavor.’
The most important thing, of course, was the taste.
All those convenience foods tasted like they were made in a factory.
I couldn’t feed my dad that kind of food because he was busy working. My mom also advised me to cook for myself instead of eating convenience foods.
so.
“Wow. Can a change in goalkeeper make this much of a difference?”
Shin-A let out a short exclamation while watching the Hannover vs. Leverkusen match.
Hannover’s defense looked very shaky despite only changing one goalkeeper.
Even though it wasn’t a defensive situation, the difference was clear because Kim Min-woo was directly involved in the build-up.
“I think I’ll get three rice cakes···.”
Kim Min-woo’s appearance is shown here and there.
Kim Min-woo went straight to the stands and watched while chewing gum. His expression didn’t look very bright.
If it’s the Kim Min-woo I know, yah! So cool! Get 100 million without doing anything~
······It should be like this.
“Are you controlling your facial expressions?”
Or maybe he really matured after going to Germany.
Although we exchanged messages several times a day, in reality we were just ordinary siblings.
Ordinary siblings? Maybe even worse than ordinary.
Now that I think about it, why do I act so cold to my brother when I actually see him?
“Well, the opponent is Leverkusen. That sub-goalkeeper is also lucky.”
Kim Shin-ah clicked her tongue and looked at the goalkeeper who came out instead of Kim Min-woo with pity.
By the way, how did Kim Min-woo end up taking the starting position?
Kim Shin-ah recalled her memories for a moment and exclaimed, “Ah!”
“That’s right. The opponent was Dortmund, so the coach sent out all the second-team players, but you showed off your crazy skills there and got a chance, right?”
Looking back now, Kim Min-woo’s debut match was a shock and horror. If the goalkeeper who was a substitute at the time hadn’t been injured, and if the opponent hadn’t been the overwhelming powerhouse Dortmund, he probably wouldn’t have had the opportunity.
And the game that follows.
Hannover were defending quite roughly.
Kim Shin-ah, who always watches Hannover’s matches, found it very strange, but was soon able to find the reason.
“Is it because the goalkeeper is more active in defense than Kim Min-woo?”
So, if you don’t trust your own goalkeeper and give him a shooting angle, will that lead to a goal?
Why does that sub goalkeeper look so pitiful…
But rough defense tends to invite fouls. It still does.
A black defender with dreadlocks, Ariumbi, was forced to go down after shoving an opposing striker just outside the penalty area, leading to a free kick foul.
“···Why is it fun when Hanover is being pushed back?”
While Leverkusen prepared for a free kick, Kim Shin-a reflected on her own psychology.
This also came out quickly.
That was because Kim Min-woo did not play, and the difference in performance that became apparent when Kim Min-woo did not play was very welcome.
And the free kick that followed.
“Ahhh.”
Kim Shin-a also expressed her admiration and sighs along with the commentary team. Hannover’s sub-goalkeeper clearly touched the ball.
I tried to stop it, but my hands were oily, so I just threw it into the net.
Of course, that net was the side net, and it ended up being Leverkusen’s additional goal.
Each scene was shot with the Leverkusen players looking happy, Jan sticking his tongue out and looking nervous, and the sub-goalkeeper sending the ball out with a dark expression.
“Already two goals···.”
Is it true that the performance of the game changes so drastically just because one goalkeeper was changed? Or is it because the opponent is the powerful Leverkusen?
Anyway, Hannover looked gloomy after conceding two goals in just 20 minutes of the first half.
And that wasn’t the end of it.
Leverkusen’s stormy form continued.
It drove, swept, and surged.
Such performance completely overwhelmed Hannover, and they put the finishing touches on the scoreboard by scoring the third goal in the 35th minute and the fourth goal in the 44th minute, just before the end of the first half.
Although Hannover showed flashes of attacking power here and there, such performances were helplessly scattered in front of Leverkusen’s overwhelming defense.
And then, as the first half extra time was passing.
Kim Shin-ah stretched and watched only the first half before deciding to stop watching.
And then the screen caught Kim Min-woo.
Kim Min-woo was watching the game with an indifferent expression, chewing gum, but for a moment, Kim Shin-ah doubted her eyes.
“Wow, sir. What is it?”
Although his expression seemed calm, Kim Min-woo’s hands were trembling on the screen.
To be exact, he holds the hand first and then shows the face, and the composition that the camera director captured was a work of art.
“Was it that passionate?”
I was so angry at the poor performance that my hands were shaking.
After the first half ended, Kim Shin-ah grabbed her phone. She went into KakaoTalk and tried to type a message, but for a moment she stopped.
‘What do you say?’
[What’s with the shaking hands? It’s so funny lol]
[Your hands are cold? Your little brother will give you a hug!?]
Kim Shin-ah, who had been thinking for a moment, sighed and pressed the back button.
And I turned off the TV and the living room lights. I’m going to go to sleep. I don’t know if I’ll be able to sleep right away.
***
The match against Leverkusen ended 4:1.
Fortunately, Hannover’s performance picked up in the second half, and at least they didn’t suffer an embarrassing defeat in front of their home fans.
Later I found out that my shaking hands were caught on camera and became a hot topic.
‘Ah······ Did you take a picture of that?’
I was watching the first half and my hands were shaking without me realizing it because I was so upset, but I wonder how they filmed that again.
Hannover fans all responded with understanding or even sympathy.

→(Emoticon covering mouth)
→I understand that you didn’t have enough money to hire a sub-goalkeeper because you were recruiting new players······ Ha. Leo, you need to work harder. This was the worst.
→If Kim had been the goalkeeper, would Hannover have won 1:0?
《Kim’s feelings are my feelings. I don’t know what Hanover would do without Kim》
《In fact, Kim’s reaction may have been the reaction of many attackers who have faced Kim so far..》
→Recognition
It was a physiological phenomenon that I didn’t know about, but fortunately, people’s reactions both domestically and internationally were not bad.
Well, if there’s anyone who nitpicks about this and makes a fuss about it, then that person is weird.
“I’m going to London in a few days.”
It was my mom.
Now it seemed like the agency problem was nearing its end.
When I see my mom, who has met with numerous agencies, specifically say that she is going to England and even tell me about the company she is in contact with… I’m sure it’s true.
“Son. I wish my son could come with me.”
“···me too?”
“Yeah. After the away game ends this time. But he’s still a strong candidate to become my son’s agency, so shouldn’t my son go and see him himself?”
Was it H&B? The full name is also very simple.
H&B Sports Management.
A very intuitive mission.
Well, after the away game is over, I have some free time.
“Okay. Okay then.”
I’d like to go and get some London air.
Since Tottenham is also in London, if possible, Son Heung-min too… This might not work out.
