Catching the ball on his head, Rodrygo headed the ball into the back of the empty goal.
{Threeeeeeee!!!}
{Madrid are on a roll!}
{How the mighty have fallen!}
{We came here expecting an evenly matched game and truly they have been evenly matched in all aspects but goals!}
{Uventus are being swept away and are unable to resist!}
{It’s almost too easy for their opponents!}
{Surely now, there is no way back for Uventus now!}
{They are already three goals down and against Madrid, they might start packing their bags early!} the commentator shouted excitedly, a hint of mockery in his tone as he spoke about the Uventus team.
The Uventus fans watching from all around the world sat in front of their TVs in silence, unable to find a word to express their disappointment.
It was only the sixtieth minute, but it looked like the game was already over for their team, however, after the shock began to subside, the Uventus fans began to hope for their team to score at least one or two goals to reduce the deficit.
At least this way, there might be some hope for them to make a comeback in the second leg.
Some Uventus fans had even begun praying.
As for the travelling Uventus fans at the Bernabeu who had coughed up the money they used to fly to Madrid to support their team, they wished for nothing more than to swallowed by the ground so that they could escape the embarrassment they were feeling.
Their team’s display so far had been a total disgrace.
Especially the defenders who seemed to be falling over themselves every time the Madrid launched a counterattack.
In reality, the Uventus defenders were doing pretty well as they had stopped more than twenty attacking chances of the Madrid team but compared to the glaring three goals they had let past them, no one cared for their efforts so far.
It wasn’t only the Uventus fans who were embarrassed.
Even the Uventus players on the field felt the sting of conceding three goals, especially in an important game like this one.
Quite a number of the Uventus players could not hide the defeated feeling that was beginning to show in their eyes, however, Ronaldo quickly joined hands with the team captain to rally his teammates and try to lift the mood.
“Come on guys, the game is not over yet!”
“We have thirty minutes to correct our mistakes, let’s keep playing as best as we can,” Chiellini said to his fellow defenders while Ronaldo turned to the attacking players. ꞦаΝȫ𝐛Èꞩ
“We can’t keep playing like we’ve been playing,”
“We’ve been sleeping and now we’re losing by three. If we had scored goals earlier, things wouldn’t be this bad,”
“It’s not too late now, let’s keep going,” Ronaldo said and clapped his hands together sharply.
“Let’s do this!” Ronaldo shouted and the other players tried to emulate his enthusiasm, knowing that acting all defeated wouldn’t help out at all at this point.
With determined minds to do as much as they could in the few minutes left in the game, the Uventus players once again took their positions in their half of the field while the Madrid players slowly walked back to their own half of the field after taking their sweet time to celebrate their goal.
#71st minute…
After going down by three, most people watching the game thought it was over for the Uventus team and were now watching the game with a detached mindset, however, the enthusiasm the Uventus players kept displaying on the field kept their fans from totally giving up on the game yet.
The fans couldn’t explain what was going on either, but seeing that the players hadn’t given up, they also couldn’t give up on the game either, no matter how bad things looked.
{Uventus looking again!}
{They’re down by three but that hasn’t put a dampener on their enthusiasm}
{Jason! He’s looking for a way forward!?} the commentator started, seeing Jason try to move the ball down the flank.
Straffing the ball down the flank while slowly looking for a way to escape Dani Carvajal, Jason soon noticed Sergio Ramos approaching and he began to consider turning away as he didn’t want to go one on one against the force of nature that was that Madrid center back.
However, even if he was going to avoid going up against him directly, Jason still held on to the ball, wanting to draw Sergio Ramos away from the center, even a little bit.
After waiting a few more seconds, Jason finally passed the ball back infield to Mckennie who then passed the ball to Ronaldo.
Receiving the ball with no opponents near him, Ronaldo suddenly pushed the ball a little distance forward and faced downward, focus written all over his face.
Seeing that gesture, every single Madrid player who had ever played with Ronaldo jolted and started rushing at him.
“Stop him!!!” Sergio Ramos shouted to Valverde who was the nearest to Ronaldo, but before Valverde could react, Ronaldo was already running at the ball. freёwebnoѵel.com
From thirty yards out, Ronaldo didn’t think… he aimed, and he hit the ball with as much power as he could muster, sending a rocket of a shot at the Madrid goal.
{RONALDOOOOOOO!!!} the commentator shouted as he watched Ronaldo hit the ball.
Moments later, it happened.
It was something the Madrid fans had seen happen quite a few times.
The only difference was that those times, Ronaldo had done it wearing their colors… Now, he was doing it against them.
The ball smashed into the back of the net like an unstoppable force of nature, leaving Courtois with no desire to be in the ball’s path.
Earlier, he had dived at the ball, but he had missed and now he was happy that he did, otherwise, he felt he would have at least broken a wrist.
{Ohhhhhh, what beauty!}
{Head down! Power! Accuracy! He’s done it many times before and he’s still got it in him!}
{Uventus have one back thanks to this man!}
{It could be a lifeline, two more needed!} the commentator screamed excitedly as the Uventus players surrounded Ronaldo happily, happy to have gotten at least one back.
All over the world and at the stadium, the Uventus fans were jumping in their seats that they had gotten one goal back and that it was such a beautiful goal too.
With such a grand entrance, the Uventus fans could not help it.
They could feel their hopes rising and they weren’t the only ones.
The players felt it too.
