“Phew.”
Blaise Matuidi, who started on the left wing, exhaled heavily to catch his breath after Kylian Mbappe’s shot sank into the England goal.
Although he started as a left winger in the formation, his role was more defensive, with him moving like a central midfielder, rather than a traditional winger.
Blaise Matuidi’s top priority before kick-off from Didier Deschamps was to team up with N’Golo Kante to disrupt Son Jin-ho’s play.
Blaise Matuidi, who was aware that this World Cup in Russia would be his last, ran as hard as he could and did not hesitate to show great activity and rough play to keep Son Jin-ho in check.
When the attack was disrupted or a pass error occurred, he quickly got to Son Jin-ho regardless of possession of the ball, and thanks to Matuidi’s checks, France scored the first goal.
The game resumed with Harry Kane’s kick-off, and the ball went to Son Jin-ho.
‘I am the MOM of this match.’
Blaise Matuidi, who was very strong in his body, made a rough tackle on Son Jin-ho.
Boos erupted from the England stands as Son Jin-ho fell to the ground with a scream.
He looked at Son Jin-ho lying on the ground and muttered to himself without realizing it.
“Did you get hurt?”
***
[Ah… Son Jin-ho is lying on the ground.]
[Blaise Matuidi’s tackle was rough.]
[Referee Andres Cunha, shouldn’t this tackle be shown with the card?]
[Yes. At the moment I was speaking, referee Cunha approached Matuidi. It looks like he will take out his card.]
[In fact, it was a tackle that wouldn’t have been surprising if a red card had been pulled out? What kind of card would referee Cunha have… Ah. He pulled out a yellow card. I think the decision was a bit lenient.]
[Yes. And the moment I said that, Son Jin-ho got up safely from the ground! Thank goodness! I’m really grateful!]
[Son Jin-ho, you are now at an age where you are starting your prime as a soccer player, right? After all, the most important thing is to avoid getting injured.]
[Yes, and the game will restart with a free kick from England.]
***
France dominated the game overall after scoring the opening goal, but England also did their best to regain control of the game.
England steadied their shaky defensive line and began a slow counterattack centered around Son Jin-ho.
In the 21st minute of the first half, Son Jin-ho attempted a one-touch conversion pass after shaking off the pressure from Blaise Matuidi and Kante.
Trippier, who successfully received the ball from the side, immediately attempted an early cross.
Trippier’s cross arrives precisely into the penalty box, and the white jersey is seen attempting a volley shot on the cross.
“─!!”
The moment when the English crowd sensed a tying goal.
Boohoo─.
The shot soared into the sky.
Unfortunately, it was Raheem Sterling, not Harry Kane, who received Trippier’s cross.
“Kirun! Cross is too strong!”
The scene where Son Jin-ho grabbed the back of his neck after seeing Raheem Sterling’s shot was broadcast around the world.
***
[Ah! Raheem Sterling’s shot goes into the sky!!]
[The image of Son Jin-ho quietly holding the back of his neck is captured on the broadcast screen.]
└ Haha …
└ F*ck, even if I were Son Jin-ho, my blood pressure would probably rise.
└ But why can’t I see Kane?
└ The stealth function hasn’t been working since the last game, s**t;
[There seem to be several players who have been underperforming since the last game. If England is to win the World Cup, the other players need to come alive too!]
***
Raheem Sterling’s shot missed the French goal, but it did manage to turn the game in England’s favour.
England pushed France hard to equalise.
Meanwhile, Trippier and Dele Alli, who are also on Tottenham Hotspur, did not get along well and a pass error occurred.
N’Golo Kante reacted quickly and managed to intercept the missed pass.
And then the French counterattack.
N’Golo Kante intercepted the ball and passed it to Griezmann, who was right in front of him, and Griezmann twisted his whole body to pass the ball to Paul Pogba, who was free from England’s pressure.
Paul Pogba, who received the ball, used an upper body feint to beat Jordan Henderson and then slipped a through ball into the space behind the incoming Kylian Mbappe.
Kyle Walker, who had been keeping an eye on Killian Mbappe, quickly follows suit.
After being dispossessed of a good position by Kyle Walker, Kylian Mbappe back-heeled the ball to Olivier Giroud rather than finish it himself.
Olivier Giroud was France’s starting striker and started every game in this tournament.
‘Must add it.’
However, as he had scored no goals in this tournament, Giroud attempted a shot with a desperate determination.
But is it because of that desperate mindset?
Jirou’s shot, with too much force in his body, hit the crossbar.
[Ah! Bored! Hit the crossbar!!]
[Still, it’s boring not being able to score!!]
[Kyle Walker kicks the ball out! The first half ends as Walker kicks the ball out over the touchline.]
***
Half-time quickly came to an end, and the second half between England and France began.
As if the first half of the game was a warm-up for the second half, both teams went on the offensive as soon as the second half started.
Raheem Sterling, who was running into the penalty box, collided with Raphael Varane and fell to the ground.
“Oh my! I’m dying! Referee~!”
Raheem Sterling tried to claim a foul with a look of indignation, but the referee shook his head firmly.
Hugo Lloris’s goal kick went wide of the halfway line and Paul Pogba won a duel with Henderson.
Lucas Hernandez attempted an overlap but was blocked by John Stones.
John Stones managed to win the ball away with a neat standing tackle and passed it to Dele Alli, who shook off the pressure of Antoine Griezmann and attempted a long pass forward.
Dele Alli’s pass, which had been stretching out, stopped only after reaching Son Jin-ho’s toes.
Son Jin-ho passed the ball forward to Raheem Sterling, who went between the full-back and the centre-back.
Raheem Sterling’s cutback from deep inside the penalty box is met by Harry Kane.
Harry Kane aimed for the bottom left corner of the goal and had a premonition of scoring when he saw Hugo Lloris being caught in a counter-attack.
Phew─.
But Kane’s shot was blocked by Umtiti’s tackle.
England and France kept trying to score, but additional goals seemed to come but did not.
The game time passed quickly.

Then, in the 33rd minute of the second half, Blaise Matuidi collapsed on the ground complaining of muscle cramps.
Didier Deschamps looked set to hold on, bringing on an extra defender to replace Matuidi.
Rather than risk losing a point by overdoing it, we decided to protect the one point we had.
However, Didier Deschamps’ move was the worst choice.
As soon as Matuidi was replaced, Son Jin-ho, who was freed, started to run wild.
During that time, N’Golo Kante and Matuidi worked together to suppress Son Jin-ho, but the balance naturally collapsed when Matuidi left.
Son Jin-ho and England, now free, pressed France, who had lowered their line, and France took up a body-barreled defense without sparing their bodies.
So the regular time is over and the referee is about to lift the extra time.
An incident occurred.
Kylian Mbappe, who was wasting time at the corner flag, mocked England by dribbling onto the field instead of handing the ball to them when a throw-in was called.
John Stones, excited by Mbappe’s provocative action, shoved Mbappe hard, and a minor clash occurred between the two teams.
“Stop! If you physically clash with me any more, it won’t end with a warning.”
It could have easily escalated into a major collision, but the referee’s quick response quickly brought the conflict under control.
Kylian Mbappe was booked for time-wasting behaviour, while John Stones was given a verbal caution for shoving Mbappe.

“Kill that son of a bitch!!”
“Break the bridge!”
But unlike the ground where the referee somehow managed to control the situation, the English fans who witnessed Kylian Mbappe’s unmannerly play were excited. The English fans hurled unspeakable words at Mbappe.
“Referee, those people are making racist comments to me.”
Kylian Mbappe lashed out at the referee, claiming he had been racially abused.
‘Wow… Is he crazy?’
Son Jin-ho, who was watching the scene, recognized Killian Mbappe as a little Ronaldo.
***
The game resumed with a throw-in from England, and with the clock running out, we pulled up our defensive line and went on the offensive.
I took possession of the ball with a soft first touch and at the same time raised my head to check my surroundings.
In an instant, I see N’Golo Kante approaching me.
As Kante stretched his leg towards the ball, I stretched my right foot and pulled the ball towards my body, then spun my body around to take the pressure off Kangyomi.
“Return!”
He then passed the ball to Dele Alli and asked for a return pass.
Ali’s pass went exactly where I pointed, and I returned the ball with a one-two pass and ran towards the penalty box.
The French defenders, who had been slowly retreating and defending, lowered their stance when they saw the penalty box line.
‘Ssup….’
I took a deep breath, listening to the hearty cheers of the England crowd.
Then, the surrounding noise began to disappear.
Only the sound of my heartbeat rings in my ears.
I lightly tapped the ball, looking for an opening.
At that moment, a gap appeared between Raphael Varane and Samuel Umtiti.
I took action as soon as I saw the gap.
He first broke Varane’s balance by pretending to shoot and feinting, then he pretended to break through in Varane’s direction and quickly attempted a counter shot through the space between Raphael Varane and Samuel Umtiti.
A completely fooled Samuel Umtiti stretched his leg with all his might, but the ball flew past the space between Varane and Umtiti.
Swaying─.
Hugo Lloris stood frozen in place as a shot suddenly slid in between Varane and Umtiti.
“Football’s Coming Home!!!!”
The shot went straight into the French goal, and I shouted at Harry Kane, who was standing there blankly, leaving the cheering crowd behind.
“Don’t be late! There’s not much time left! Hurry up and bring the ball!”
***
[Gooooooo! Son Jin-ho’s equalizing goal! A quick shot at a timing that the French defenders didn’t expect! Goalkeeper Lloris can’t react! 3 minutes left in the game! England’s equalizing goal has finally been scored! The game starts now!!]
[France was literally on the verge of victory. However, they ended up failing to stop Son Jin-ho and ended up conceding a goal!!]
[Yes. Manager Didier Deschamps’ expression is darkening.]
***
The moment Son Jin-ho’s shot hit the French goal net, coach Didier Deschamps let out a sigh without realizing it.
With not much time left in the game, the game was tied because Son Jin-ho, who had been on guard before the start of the game, could not be stopped.
“Shouldn’t you have stepped down from the line?”
He realized that his decision was wrong, but it was too late to regret it now.
“The game isn’t over yet! Focus!”
Deschamps came out to the touchline and encouraged the players. No tactical instructions were given separately. It was inevitable.
If we change tactics hastily, we will allow England to score a comeback goal.
Deschamps decided to bide his time and then make a tactical change in extra time.
Meanwhile, England, who had gained momentum after scoring the equaliser, pushed their line higher in the remaining extra time to score a comeback goal.
As Didier Deschamps watched Son Jin-ho shake off the pressure from the French players, a familiar but great shadow appeared in his eyes.
‘landlord.’
As he played a supporting role behind Zidane during his playing days, Son Jin-ho’s play just now brought back memories of the past.
While he was lost in memories of the past.
Son Jin-ho attempted a mid-range shot after shaking off the pressure from Paul Pogba.
Son Jin-ho’s lightning-quick mid-range shot once again found the French goal net.
Didier Deschamps closed his eyes with a groan of pain and when he opened them again, there was no shadow of Zidane in his eyes.
‘Gino’s nickname in Germany was Kaiser. That’s a fitting nickname.’
Born in the soccer wasteland of Asia, there was a next-generation soccer emperor who was thrilling Europe.
Meanwhile, the next generation of football emperors, acknowledged by Didier Deschamps, were running counter to the trend, freely crossing the field like German troops invading neutral Belgium.
“Sickle-hooo …
***
England, who managed to score two goals in just four short minutes, then went into reverse lock-up mode.
There are 3 minutes left until the end of the game.
“Give me the ball!”
Son Jin-ho approached Pickford, who was holding the ball in his arms and delaying the game as much as possible, received the ball from him, and then slowly moved to the corner flag.
Then he looked at the face of Killian Mbappe approaching with a rotten expression and said with a sly smile.
“Man Geun Chu!”
The French players were unable to steal the ball from Son Jin-ho, who had been casting the Man-geun-chu.
The hate match between England and France ended with England, the leading authority in the field, winning.
