The moment Son Jin-ho’s shot hit the Portuguese goal net.
“Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah—!!”
There were cheers all over England.
“Rule, Britannia! Britannia, rule the waves!”
In the pub, cheers began to ring out in support of Jin-ho Son joining the British Empire.
“Do you trust Gino?”
“…I believe!”
“This kid hesitated for a moment, then soaked it again!”
“Bloody Hell! Believe me you motherfuckers!”
The pub owner who dissed Roy Hodgson for giving England captaincy to an uncivilised Asian has been forced to repent by wading into the Thames.
***
Son Jin-ho’s goal gave England the lead again, but Portugal did not give up until the end.
Because they still had plenty of time to turn things around.
“Focus! The game isn’t over yet.”
“Vamos─!”
Ronaldo glanced at the clock on the scoreboard, applauded and encouraged his teammates, and the Portuguese players started to pass the ball to Ronaldo, hoping that the Portuguese ace would do something.
[Ronaldo, who has the ball, tries to dribble through it himself this time!]
And Portuguese hero Cristiano Ronaldo, who shouldered everything, lived up to the expectations of his teammates.
[Ronaldo! Entered the penalty box! Ronaldo!!!!]
[Cristiano Ronaldo tripped over Harry Kane’s leg!!]
[Referee! The referee has marked the penalty spot!!! Portugal gets a penalty kick just before the end of the game! The game is not over yet!!}
He created a penalty kick just before the end of the game.
[Gooooooooooooooooo─! The balance must be maintained! The guardian of balance, Cristiano Ronaldo! Brings the game back to square one!!!]
└ Ao─! You son of a bitch, Hosadin!
└ Wow, f*ck, they’re extending this.
└ But why did that damn Harry Kane tackle him there?
└ Seriously;; Even if it got through there, there was no shooting angle;;
He then converted a penalty kick to bring the game back to square one.

“Damn it! I didn’t mean to tackle, why did you do that?!”
After Ronaldo’s penalty kick went into the net, I went up to Harry Kane, who was holding his head in frustration, and offered him some words of comfort.
“Harry, you should do something nice later.”
At this point, isn’t it possible that Kane is really possessed by a ghost?
At this point, I was starting to get really scared by Kane’s incompetence.
Anyway, after Ronaldo’s penalty kick, the referee blew the whistle to end the second half, and the match between the two teams went into extra time.
The players sat around manager Roy Hodgson, regardless of their team affiliation, and I watched with a new expression on my face.
Even when I first joined the national team, the England national team had such poor teamwork that they didn’t even eat at the same table.
Thanks to their good performance in the Euros, they now look like a proper team, laughing and joking, and even handing water to tired players.
“… Are you okay with the foul you got earlier?”
“Huh? Uh….”
Of course, there were still some awkward glimpses here and there.
Well, still.
I guess we can just change them one by one, slowly.
“Gino.”
“Ah. Thank you.”
I watched them conversing awkwardly, then took the water bottle that Jordan Henderson handed me and quenched my thirst.
“Whew. Hendo.”
“huh?”
“If you want to join, contact me.”
“… Are you crazy?”
And then they tried to recruit him quietly.
Isn’t this the advantage of being both a club owner and a player, being able to naturally approach players during a game?
“Gino, are you asking our team for permission to recruit him now?”
“Oh. What! I want to go to Man U too!”
But my colleagues, who took my remark as a joke, burst into laughter with light criticism.
I scratched my head and smiled faintly.
hmm.
I was being sincere.
***
The referee’s whistle blew and overtime began.
A situation where both teams’ physical limitations were revealed.
Several players suffered muscle cramps and the managers were forced to use their last-minute substitution card.

There were players who were brought in as substitutes, but the starting players were too tired to change the flow of the game with the skills of the substitutes.
In the end, the first half of the extension ended without any special scenes.
And then the extended second half.
Mistakes occurred and England and Portugal each had a golden chance, but were blocked by the goalkeeper.

With just one minute left, Son Jin-ho’s pass found Marcus Rashford.
“Raeuu …
Marcus Rashford started running towards the Portuguese half, screaming.
Could it be that the teachings of Jin-ho Son and Ronaldo have shone through during this time?
Marcus Rashford managed to shake off the Portuguese pressure and found himself near the penalty box.
[A very clever foul by Pepe. The referee warns Pepe for the foul.]
However, Pepe, who had used up his last stamina, ran at full speed and stopped Rashford’s counterattack with a foul.
[Gino, who led England to the final as captain, prepares for a free kick.]
The referee cautioned Pepe and then awarded a free kick to England.
***
Marcus Rashford, who came on as a substitute for Harry Kane who was suffering from muscle cramps, got a free kick chance in a good position.
I feel the eyes and cameras of the crowd filling the stadium focused on me.
I quietly placed my right hand on my heart.
Thump─.
Honestly, I felt like my heart was going to burst from the pressure.
As the captain and ace of the team, I had no intention of leaving my work to others.
The referee’s whistle rang in my ears, and I took a deep breath and started running.
And tried to shoot with full power.
There was no choice. In a situation where the limits of physical strength were revealed, a precise shot was more likely to miss than a shot made with all one’s might.
Boohoo─!
And the well-powered shot went past the defensive wall and straight into the Portuguese goal.
Even Rui Patricio, who had made several fantastic saves, could only stare blankly at the shot.
“Come On!!!!!”
As soon as the goal net shook, I ran to the corner flag, roared at the crowd, then turned around and spread my arms.
And just then, behind me as I was performing the Cross Celebration, the St. George’s Cross, the national flag of England, was waving.

[What a Goal!! What a Goal!!!!!]
[A black-haired boy from the football outskirts of Asia, now a young man, leads England to victory!!!]
[Everyone, worship! The birth of a new soccer emperor!!]
And the BBC commentators, who were full of nationalism, naturally tried teabagging.
[I must say this today. Thank you Korea!! You have given us the most precious jewel in the world!!]
***
Son Jin-ho’s free kick found the back of the net, ending the match with England’s victory.
It was literally a game where both teams gave it their all.
The players fell to the ground and were unable to move for a while.
On the field, only the heavy breathing of the players who had burned everything resonated.
The audience began to give warm applause to the players who gave their best until the end.

└ What will happen if we get grouped with England in the World Cup?
└ First of all, if that happens, I won’t be able to access the internet for a while.

***
The UK mainland was in a festive mood after winning its first ever European Championship.
Apart from the World Cup held in their home country, they had no experience of lifting a trophy in an international competition.
Even in the 2012 London Olympics, they suffered the humiliation of being eliminated by Korea in the quarterfinals.
For a country that calls itself a football powerhouse but has been ridiculed for its dismal international performance, winning its first-ever European Championship was like a blessing in disguise.
Meanwhile, the British people have been saying that they are happier when their club wins the league than when their national team wins, as they have seen their national team underperform in international competitions… .
In fact, it was a mental victory bordering on self-abandonment for the national team that had not been able to perform well in international competitions.
This was evident in the current state of wild celebrations taking place across Britain.
Wherever he went in Britain, the image of Son Jin-ho lifting the Euro trophy was constantly replayed.
“Rule, Britannia! Britannia, rule the Football!”
Son Jin-ho’s cheering song echoed through the streets.
Londoners flocked to the airport to watch the England national team.
The British government, realizing that it could not go against this atmosphere, declared a temporary public holiday the following day and mobilized the police to prevent any unpleasant incidents.
And that evening.
Son Jin-ho (who returned from France) who returned to England could not help but be bewildered by the hot air that filled the airport.
“….Is it a revolution?”
