#54th minute…
The halftime had come and gone quickly and the players were already back on the field, the repetitive words of their managers to push harder in the second half of the game echoing in their ears.
With them having been motivated by their managers, the two sets of players had gotten back onto the field with excited moods and had immediately begun tearing at each other as soon as they were back on the field.
{Misplaced pass from Zapata and Jason’s onto it! He’s bursting forward on a counter!} The commentator interrupted everyone’s thoughts and brought their attention back to the field with a sentence.
Jason had indeed gotten ahold of the ball after a misplaced pass from Zapata and had burst forward with the ball, running forward a few yards before he had lobbed the ball forward and into the top right side of the field where Ronaldo was already running into.
Chasing deftly after the ball, Ronaldo got onto it after a burst of pace that kept him a few meters ahead of his marker.
Jason had not stopped running even after sending the ball forward and was advancing down the middle of the field and trying to get into a dangerous position for the return ball from Ronaldo… if he returned it.
Despite being at a safe distance away from his marker, Ronaldo realized that it would be easier to cross the ball in to the center, instead of going it himself and with Jason rapidly approaching and about to arrive in the center, he didn’t hesitate to send the ball towards the arriving Jason.
Seeing the ball coming his way, Jason increased his pace, aiming to get to it before the nearby Atalana players.
What he didn’t know was that at some point, the Atalanta players had given up on the ball and had chosen a new target… a moving, hundred percent chocolate, handsome and very much alive target.
Someone suddenly slammed into Jason from the left, destabilizing him, but in that moment, he noticed that there was another person coming from his right who would soon slam into him as well.
In that moment, his slumbering martial instincts kicked in and he stomped hard with his left foot and darted to his right, jumping and doing a no-hand side flip over the outstretched foot of the Atalanta player.
Due to the suddenness of the maneuver, he wasn’t able to land properly and ended up landing almost on his knees and barely using one of his hands to stabilize himself, but to the people watching it looked like Jason had just flipped and did a super hero landing, looking very much like spider man.
{He turns the stadium to his own stage with a show of amazing athleticism to evade the tackle!} The commentator exclaimed with so much excitement that one would think Jason had scored a forty yard screamer.
{He has quite the self preservation instinct} the co-commentator chuckled.
Flipping his hair up back over his head, Jason gave a sigh of relief after realizing that he had managed to escape the pincer death trap he had been faced with moments earlier.
Unfortunately, he had missed his chance to get to the ball and the ball was already too far away for him to reach, however, one man was already poised to take over for him.
Chiesa didn’t pay any attention to his teammate, who had just escaped a dangerous situation and was more focused on the ball that had been ignored.
{It’s fallen to Chiesa, can he go all the way!?}
Catching up to the ball and pushing it into the penalty box with a smooth flick, he didn’t hesitate to smash the bottom into the bottom left corner of the goal, leaving the goalkeeper unable to react in time. 𝔯ᴀƝO͍ΒĘS̈
{It’s in!!!}
{Uventus don’t waste their chance, and with a beautiful counter-attack chance, they take the lead!} the commentator screamed while Chiesa ran to the sidelines and jumped into a knee slide before leaping back up mid-slide and pumping up his right fist with excitement.
He was soon joined by the rest of his teammates, including Jason who slowly jogged over, not forgetting to give a bombastic side eye to the Atalanta players who went at him earlier.
The Atalanta players, however, were still in shock at everything that happened so fast that they didn’t have the time to even react.
Their opponents cared not for their dismay however and celebrated without holding back before heading back to their half of the field with elevated moods.
#75th minute…
After taking the lead earlier, the Uventus team had ensured to slow down the game to prevent the momentum from falling to their opponents and made sure to focus on staying behind the ball until they were sure they were in control of the game’s tempo once again.
The Atalanta team was doing their best to try to regain control and chase for an equalizer, but the Uventus had a strong hold of the game and were able to kill most of the Atalanta team’s attempts to shake things up.
{Jason gives up trying to cut in from the left and returns the ball back to the center}
{Mckennie, he finds Ronaldo}
{Ronaldo… he’s pushes the ball forward, oh he’s raring up to have a go!?} The commentator shouted as he saw Ronaldo push the ball forward a bit and get into a shooting posture since no one was near him.
{He hits it!} the commentator screamed as the ball thundered off Ronaldo’s foot, flew speedily at the goal, and then struck the bar powerfully, deflecting off it up and over the goal.

{The bar!}
{Atalanta survive going two behind!} The commentator screamed excitedly, still rattled from the attempt.
{It would have been a goal of the season contender had it gone in, but we can only add that beauty of an highlight to the long list of what ifs} the co-commentator added as Ronaldo rubbed his hair with a wry smile as he turned away, disappointed that the ball hadn’t ended at the back of the net.
