19 Eibar 2

Andreas dribbled the ball forward. Ahead of him was only one defender left. Galvez was slowly approaching Andreas while maintaining a good distance so that he couldn't pass him through sudden acceleration.

Boga was making a run from Andreas' left side. Eibar's right wingback was closely behind him. Behind Andreas was Eibar's defensive midfielder.

Galvez was slowly closing down Andreas. Andreas knew if he didn't get past this defender, he would lose the opportunity to score as the defensive midfielder was behind him.

As Andreas approaches Galvez, he uses the inside of his foot to push the ball slightly. After that, he quickly snapped the ball in the opposite direction. [skill move: elastico]

"Wohhhhh!" a cheer broke out in the stadium.

"Did you see that?"

And old fans are asking others.

"Beautiful, isn't it?"

Several fans nodded. Their cheers didn't make any impact on Andreas. He passed Galvez and dribbled the ball forward.

Before he could react, Andreas passed him. He accelerated towards the final destination.

Goalkeeper Risego comes out of his position to stop him. Andreas was still a few metres away from him.

In a flash, Andreas makes a choice. He manoeuvres the ball inside of his boot.

In a single fluid motion, he adjusts his body's shape by squarely establishing his non-kicking foot on the ground and aligning his hips.

He unleashes a controlled yet powerful shot. The ball left his foot with a whisper, curling elegantly in the air. The ball finds the perfect trajectory. The goalkeeper watches in despair as he makes one last unfruitful attempt to save. The ball sails with ease, grazing the inside of the post before nestling into the top right corner of the goal.

.

The stadium erupted in cheers. 14,000 people were roaring and cheering for this magical moment they witnessed.

"In a word: brilliant. The crowd is on their feet. why would they not be? The magic they just witnessed. People will believe that big-team matches are the only places where such mastery displays are possible. Who could have predicted that this match would include such a moment of grace? Perhaps, for the time being, at least, Andreas is not a major player. At least for now, we can call him Ronaldinho's sucessor. The elf who did the magic as soon as he stepped onto the field."

The commentator roared with his passionate voice.

Andreas rushed towards the corner. He did a sliding kneel. Boga runs as fast as possible.

"You have to teach me this trick,, Andreas." He was roaring in his ear.

Soon, others joined. Some ruffled his hair, some patted his ass.

"Hey, who pats my ass, damn it?"

Well, no one seems to be replying to his question.

.

Andreas feels that in this match, he will do more magic.

The game restarted. The player from Eibar was passing in their half.

"Concentrate, there are still 65 minutes left." Their coach was shouting from the dugout.

"Don't give them space." Pacho was roaring.

For the next five minutes, no dangerous situations were created. But that quickly changed when Atzili Rw of Granada lost the ball, making unnecessary movements. The left wing-back of Eibar won the ball. He quickly passes the ball to the middle. Jota number 10 of their team receives the ball. Uche quickly closed him down. But Jota passed the ball before it got too dangerous. Leon, the right winger of Eibar, receives the ball on the wing.

"Eibar on the counterattack. They are passing the ball fast. Oh, Leon passed it back to Jota. Jota got free space in front of the box. It could be dangerous for Granada."

Before Jota could take the shot, he was tackled by Uche from behind.

The whistle of the referee can be heard

. The referee takes out the yellow card and shows it to Uche.

Some players were visibly angry, so they asked the referee to change it to red. But the referee was firm in his decision.

Eibar gets a direct free kick from just outside the box.

Jota takes the free kick. The ball fly over the bar.

After a few minutes, Andreas got the ball in his own half. Right after he gets the ball, Jota brings him down. Andreas could not help but smile at him. He was closely watched by an opponent after the first goal.

After that, Andreas got a few touches, but he couldn't do anything as he was closely marked.

 Pacho was frowning after seeing this scene. Because of his tactics, Andreas' flair was greatly needed for breaking opposition tactics. Like the first goal, Andreas created that goal by himself with his talent and flare.

[A/n: YOU guys may think I am underestimated, Granada. But in reality, Granada lost this match 2-1. And pacho is not the type of coach who can help a team win with certain tactics. So if Grannada wants to win, Andreas must perform.

And do tell me if you have any complaints about pacing.]
