My Girlfriend Wants Victory - Chapter 270

***
The second half began with England conceding two goals in the first half alone.
The mood of the game completely shifted to England, and the cheers of the South Korean fans, who sensed defeat, gradually became quieter.
“Ha… Is this how the World Cup ends?”
“You idiot, the game isn’t over yet.”
“And even if we lose today, we’ll be fine as long as we win against Germany.”
“Is Germany your dog’s name? Do you say you’ll win so easily?”
“Looking at how Germany is doing, they are really bad, but I think we have a chance of winning.”
A time when most spectators predicted that South Korea would be eliminated from the World Cup.
South Korea’s coach Dezervi did not give up on the game.
To be exact, I couldn’t give up.
“Raise your head! Don’t give up the game! The game isn’t over yet! Are you going to go home empty-handed like this? You should at least give me one more shot.”
Because the players he leads haven’t given up on the game yet.
In a game where the players haven’t given up, how can the manager be the first to give up?
Squeak─.
As the voice of Ki Sung-ryong, the captain of the South Korean national team, died down, Coach Dezervi opened the locker room door and entered.
As soon as the locker room door opened, the players’ eyes were focused on him. Dejerbi smiled slightly at the passionate gaze of the players who had not yet given up on the game, and gave a tactical change along with a consolation speech.
“Those arrogant pirates will start letting their guard down. We just have to kick their asses hard as soon as the second half starts.”
And the second half began.
The beginning of the second half was Korea’s game flow, just as coach Dezervi said.
“It’s piercing! Come to your senses!”
As players are also human, they were unable to maintain concentration for a long 90 minutes, and the concentration of the England players naturally began to decline.
‘It’s not Germany, it’s Korea… .’
‘Do you think those weaklings can score a goal?’
‘Asian football still has a long way to go.’
‘Gino is a bit of a mutant.’
In addition, the perception and stereotypes of English players that Son Jin-ho could not change also began to play a part.
[Ahh! The moment I spoke, Ki Sung-ryong blocked the pass!]
[Ki Sung-ryong passes the ball 2-on-1 to Son Heung-min and Kang Chan, and beats Kyle Walker!!! Son Heung-min! Son Heung-min! Swoooo …
With a two-goal lead against an Asian team considered a footballing outback, England’s players were caught off guard and allowed South Korea to strike at the start of the second half.
Sway─!
[Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Son Hoooongmin! Son Hongmin’s comeback goal!! A fantastic curling shot lights the fire of the chase!! The game isn’t over yet!]
Son Heung-min’s curling shot from the left flank went straight into the goal net guarded by England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.
“Bloody Hell!”
Jordan Pickford started to get angry at the England defenders for not responding properly.
***
‘Ah… If we do this, things will get complicated.’
The moment Hong Min-hyung’s shot went into the England goal, I realized that my plan was ruined.
Korea’s momentum picked up after scoring a goal, and if I had been sent off for card laundering as originally planned, a disaster could have occurred where Korea, with its momentum, would have lost the game.
While Hong Min-hyung snatched the ball and ran to the halfway line, I quickly exchanged glances with Manager Southgate.
The director slightly shook his head when their eyes met.
Eventually, I had no choice but to scrap my card-washing plan in the halftime locker room.
***
After South Korea scored, a fierce battle of offense and defense unfolded.
The South Korean players doggedly clung to the English players, who shook their heads in disgust.
40 minutes have already passed since the second half began, and the game is just around the corner.
[Son Heung-min kicked it! But Chris Smalling kicked it first!]
Chris Smalling headed the ball clear from a cross from the flank.
[The kicked ball is headed towards Son Jin-ho! It’s dangerous! Republic of Korea!]
England’s counterattack began when the ball went to Son Jin-ho outside the penalty area.
Son Jin-ho looked around as soon as he had possession of the ball and passed it to Raheem Sterling on the flank.
Raheem Sterling runs into the South Korean zone as soon as he catches the ball.
[South Korea’s foul ends up with Kim Jae-hyun collecting a warning. A foul in a dangerous area. However, if it had been passed over, it could have resulted in a goal.]
South Korea’s center back Kim Jae-hyun rushed forward and fouled Raheem Sterling’s dribble.
[Yes, if Kim Jae-hyun had been through, it would have been a one-on-one chance with the goalkeeper. It’s fortunate that it was stopped by a foul.]
[Kim Jae-hyun is lying on the ground, breathing heavily. It seems like his physical strength has reached its limit.]
[South Korea showing fighting spirit until the end! Applause pours in from the audience!]
[The result of the game is important, but soccer fans would have wanted to see this kind of performance from the players!!]
[Yes, that’s right. I can see Son Jin-ho preparing for a free kick.]
[Son Jin-ho, who is often called a dead ball specialist, has a high success rate. Is that why? Goalkeeper Jo Hyeon-o continues to hold the players’ positions.]
[A tense moment… The referee’s whistle blows! Son Jin-ho hits!!]
[Ah… Son Jin-ho’s free kick goes into the corner of the goal.]
[Son Jin-ho’s shot is sucked right into the corner of the goal. A shot like this cannot be stopped by the goalkeeper.]
***
Son Jin-ho’s free kick shook the South Korean goal net, and the moment the referee pointed to the center circle to confirm the goal, Son Jin-ho turned his head and looked at manager Southgate.
There were only two minutes left in the game, and the score was 3 to 1.
As the odds of victory were completely tilted towards England, Manager Southgate nodded his head and approved Son Jin-ho’s plan. Son Jin-ho began his long, diagonal cross-country run across the stadium.
“Whoooo …
“Whoooooo~! Whooooooo! Whooooooo!”
South Korean soccer fans, who had reached the state of enlightenment, cried out in unison the moment Son Jin-ho jumped while twirling his finger in the air.
Son Jin-ho successfully completed his mission by successfully receiving a red card.
“… Couldn’t you have just been kicked out normally?”
“Reject mediocrity. That’s the secret to becoming the best player in the world.”
***
[England 3:1 South Korea.]
[Despite Son Heung-min’s fantastic curling shot… South Korea lost 3:1 to England.]
[South Korean soccer in crisis, is it not the fans’ fault?]
[Hat-trick Son Jin-ho, proving himself to the country that abandoned him.]
[Son Jin-ho, controversy over intentional exit?]
[MOM Son Jin-ho explains the controversy over intentional exit… “The little child inside me shouted. It’s red.”]
└ Son Persi, you son of a bitch.
└ Sondebayor ㄷㄷ
└ Are you confusing it with the Manchester United uniform?
└ You guys are trying to cover this up, Hodongsaeng bastardsㅋㅋㅋ
[South Korean national team captain Ki Sung-ryong asks fans to cheer him on. “The World Cup is not over yet. We will do our best until the end. I hope you will cheer for the players until the end of the World Cup.”]
└ ??? Is this Jackie Chan’s interview?
└ It seems like only yesterday that you were running when you were feeling suffocated… .

[Panama, first ever round of 16?]
[Panama coach Hernan Dario Gomez: “We are writing a legend now.”]
[German national team, “We are not ignoring Korea, but we will definitely win the match against Korea.”]

After the match between South Korea and England ended, the overseas group chat room became active.
– Heavy type: Jin-ho, did you really have to beat him up like that to feel better?
– Blue Dragon: Wow. At this point, aren’t you really gritting your teeth to get revenge on us?
– Hongmin hyung: Jinho, from now on, if something upsets you, let’s speak up.
My brothers’ resentful criticisms showed no end, and I couldn’t stand the continued slander, so I naturally changed the subject.
– Hou: Let’s beat Germany and let’s advance to the round of 16 too.
– Hongmin hyung: Ha… Germany;;;
– Hou: Don’t be scared, we can beat Germany.
– Heavy type: Okay, we’ll win against Germany, so you just grab Panama.
– Hou: Brother.
– Heavy type: Why are you calling me? Are you trying to score an own goal in the Panama match and knock Korea out?
– Hou: No, how can I score an own goal and not be able to play in the Panama match?
– Heavy type: ???
– Hou: I have accumulated warnings and been sent off, so I won’t be able to play in the next match as a disciplinary action.
– Heavy type: Huh?
– Hou: Don’t worry though. Do you think England would lose to Panama without me?
***
The second round of group matches ended and the third round followed.
The third match of the group stage was played simultaneously with two matches in the same group to minimize any suspicion of match-fixing.
[Uruguay secures entry to round of 16 as group winner…]
[Host country Russia draws with Sweden to advance to the round of 16 in second place in group…]
The matches in Group A, which included the host country Russia, ended, and the matches in Group B followed.
[Denmark defeats Mexico to advance to round of 16 as group leader…]
[‘Hat-trick’ Ronaldo saves Portugal from crisis and leads them to the round of 16.]
Last time, it seems like the awakening effect through the message was effective.
Ronaldo scored a hat-trick in the final round to help Portugal advance to the round of 16.
– Beombu-du: Son Jin-ho. If you ask me for the secret to scoring, I can tell you specifically.
After Portugal’s match ended, Ronaldo started bragging.
– Hou: I scored more goals than you?
– Hou: Strikers score less goals than midfielders. So, that’s bullshit, right? LOL
I gave Ronaldo some solid facts.
Could it be because of the heavy fact attack? Ronaldo checked the message, but there was no reply.
And a little later.
Tiring─.
A photo of Ronaldo training was posted on his SNS along with an alarm on his smartphone.
@CR7
#I’m not satisfied with a hat-trick. #My goal is Portugal winning the championship. #Are you watching Son Jin-ho?
‘Hmm. A mental victory?’
Anyway, the next day after Group B’s match ended.
The matches of Group C, which Japan belongs to, took place.
Japan has been showing off its legendary ball-spinning skills since its origins, and has been getting cursed at all over the world.
And time passed quickly and that evening.
The match time between South Korea and Germany and England and Panama is approaching.
Naturally, my family watched the Germany-South Korea match instead of the England match, which had already secured its place in the round of 16.
– WinterWinter: Ugh… I can win, right?
– Hou: Germany is different from the last tournament, so if they do well, I think they will win.
– Craftsman: I hope it turns out as Jin-ho said.
– Chelmomo: But are you really going to Russia in winter?
– WinterWinter: Midwinter! Let’s go watch from the round of 16!
– WinterWinter: No one can stop me!
– Chelmomo: What kind of line is that?
– Hou: It sounds like a line from a game character.
– Chelmomo: Oh my. Do you still want to play games at that age?
– Chelmoni: Winter, come to your senses.
– Winter Winter: Mom, I told you that women die when they reach maturity!
– Chelmomo: Who said that?
– WinterWinter: Me!
– Chelmoni: (Cat Con sighs.)

The match between Germany and South Korea began with the referee’s whistle.
Both teams have 1 draw and 1 loss.
The two teams, located on the edge of a cliff and with nowhere to retreat, fought fiercely from the beginning of the game.
Perhaps it was because, unlike the tight flow of the beginning, the differences in each player’s abilities could not be ignored.
The flow of the game gradually shifted towards Germany.
South Korea lowered its line and was desperate to block the German attack.
The German national soccer team launched a fierce offensive against South Korea, as if the German army had occupied France in just six weeks.
[Republic of Korea!! We are really! Tenaciously holding off Germany’s attacks!!]
But South Korea, where 70% of the land is covered with mountains, was not France.
South Korea ultimately succeeded in withstanding the German offensive.
[Cho Hyun-oh!! Another Cho Hyun-oh save! Cho Hyun-oh! He really shines today!!]
Germany’s attack finally reached its end as another shot was blocked by goalkeeper Cho Hyun-oh.
[The flow has now shifted to South Korea! Son Heung-min catches the ball near the penalty box!! He shoots straight away!!]
[Ah─! Manuel Neuer’s save!! But the ball hasn’t gone out yet!]
The flow of the game shifted to Korea, and the Korean players began to squeeze out every last bit of their stamina.
[Huh?!! Kang Chan! He’s running! Kang Chan! Kang Chan!!]
In the ensuing melee, Kang Chan ran towards the ball that had fallen in front of the goal.

[Gooooooooooooooooo─! Gangchaaaaaaaan!!! Gooooooooo! South Korea! Score a goal against Germany!!]
[And just now, Danny Welbeck scored against Panama!!!]
[If this happens, we’ll move up to 2nd place! Korea!! We’re on the verge of advancing to the round of 16 for the 3rd consecutive tournament!!]
Kang Chan’s shot, attempted with his leg extended just before Hummels kicked the ball away, went straight into the German goal net, and tears began to flow from the German fans who sensed their team would be eliminated from the World Cup.
It was turnip season.
