God Of football - Chapter 132
Chapter 132: Calma Chapter 132: Calma The online world erupted as Jude Bellingham netted an early second-minute goal for Real Madrid in their highly anticipated clash against Valencia.
Madridistas flooded social media platforms with exuberant posts, hailing Bellingham as a generational talent and the heart of their team’s midfield.
Phrases like “El Rey Jude!” and “Bellingham is unstoppable” trended within minutes.
They revelled in the explosive start, using the goal to mock Valencia and even taking shots at Izan, forgetting that the match had just started and Izan’s pass early on nearly caused them problems if not for the save by Courtois.
Real Madrid fans, emboldened by their team’s fast start, didn’t hold back.
Some derisively dismissed Izan as a “fraud” while others made cruel remarks about his youth and inexperience, claiming he “wouldn’t last against the Galácticos.” Memes comparing Izan to Bellingham flooded the internet, portraying the young prodigy as an overhyped boy in the shadow of Madrid’s golden gem.
One particularly viral post read, “Real stars shine on the big stage.
Izan can stick to playing kids’ tournaments.” These jabs quickly gained traction, sparking heated debates among football fans.
Valencia fans, however, rallied behind Izan, seeing the insults as an attack not just on the player but on their club’s pride.
Many passionately defended the teenager, highlighting his incredible potential and poise under pressure.
Posts like “Izan has more talent at 15 than some players do in their whole careers” began circulating.
Some fans pointed out how Bellingham, at Izan’s age, wasn’t anywhere near the level of spotlight or scrutiny their young star was enduring.
Neutral fans added fuel to the fire, with some arguing that Real Madrid’s dominance often came with arrogance, while others noted the irony of Madrid fans targeting a player who was just starting to carve out his legacy.
Amidst the frenzy, Izan’s name continued trending worldwide, with football pundits and fans alike speculating about his mental fortitude in facing such criticism.
The polarized reactions underscored the sheer intensity of football rivalries.
For Madrid fans, Bellingham’s goal was a moment of triumph and a reason to belittle Valencia’s rising hope.
For Valencia fans, it was a rallying cry, a reason to stand by Izan and amplify their belief in his future as the next big thing in football.
The drama had only just begun.
[In Valencia] “I wished we could have gone to watch the game.
Brother is trending again” Hori said as she showed the frenzy online to his mother.
Komi looked a bit concerned but she quickly rid her mind of that feeling.
She went to the kitchen and returned with a few snacks before the duo sat down.
“Well, at least Miranda’s there”, Hori said, stuffing her mouth with some churros.
Komi also nodded at her words before shifting her attention to the match where Izan had just taken possession.
….
“On your left”, Izan heard a shout from behind, so he laid off the ball to his left.
Coming from behind, Gaya flicked the ball to his right, evading the onrushing Valverde.
The Midfielder had been monumental for Madrid ever since Valencia settled into the game.
It had been 12 minutes now, and the possession stats, as well as the chances created, went in favour of Valencia.
The Valencia fans were Glad that their team was also threatening the opponents but they wished for a goal.

A scene on the pitch made the commentator’s voice rise with excitement as Izan received the ball just inside the opponent’s half.
16′ min.
“Izan picks it up now-oh, look at that first touch!
So smooth, so confident.
He’s got space ahead of him, and he’s driving forward with intent.” The crowd noises swelled as Izan glided past the first defender with a quick drop of the shoulder.
“He skips past one…
cuts inside-what balance!
This young man is playing with fire in his boots!” the commentator affirmed.
As another defender closed in, Izan flicked the ball delicately into space.
“He sees the run-perfectly weighted!
What vision!
Izan orchestrating this attack like a maestro.” Izan’s pass found Diego López, who had gone behind the opponent’s defensive setup.
The move culminated as Izan played a clever one-two with Diego López near the edge of the box.
“Brilliant interplay!
Izan’s through on goal-can he finish this off?” The commentator’s words tumbled out with breathless admiration as the crowd collectively held its breath.
Izan raised his head to shoot but instinctively, he saw Hugo Duro on his right.
Seeing as there was a Chance for the keeper to save his shot, Izan passed the ball to Hugo Duro.
The Striker tapped the ball with his right foot as the whole stadium watched on, but suddenly, Antonio Rüdiger appeared behind the keeper and cleared the ball with a slide.
Hugo Duro’s hand went to his head, not believing what had just happened.
“How” he thought as he looked at Rüdiger.
The Valencia fans groaned while the home fans celebrated the fantastic clearance by Rüdiger.
“Vamos,” Rüdiger shouted as his teammates patted him on the back.
Rüdiger finished with his momentary celebration and yelled at his teammates to focus.
Izan, on the other hand, shook his head at the wasted chance.
Duro had already raised his hand to apologise but Izan also felt at fault.
“Would have been easy for everyone if I had just slotted it in” he thought as he moved into space for the throw.
Standing on the touchline, Ruben Baraja shouted a bit of instructions at his players many telling them to close the passing gaps.
Correira, who hadn’t had much to do since the start of the match, picked up the ball and launched it towards Pietro.
Bellingham, who had run across the field, tried to press Pietro, but the Valencia man flicked the ball behind with his heel.
The focus of the Madrid players all shifted to the person who had the ball, but it would not be for long as Javi Guerra passed to Gaya.
Valencia’s fluid football was somehow reminiscent of the Tiki-Taka football of Pep Guardiola’s Barcelona.
Gradually, the tempo of the game slowed down.
Izan knew something had to change for them to score, so he immediately shifted the tempo after getting the ball from Correia, who had switched play.
Knocking the ball forward, Izan side-stepped a tackle before choosing to go on a sprinting spree on the left flank.
Seeing this Diego López switched positions and made a run into the middle.
Dani Carvajal found Izan coming his way and decided to stall but a gust of wind flashed past him.
He turned only to find Izan laying the ball off to Diego López.
He hurriedly scrambled back to defend while Diego López turned his back to goal before flicking the ball towards Izan.
Dani Carvajal, who had recovered, attacked Izan’s shoulder with his right hand, tipping his balance.
Seeing this, the referee was about to blow the whistle, but Izan’s left foot went behind, so he let play continue.
With bated breaths, the whole stadium watched on as Izan powered through the ball with the outside of his left foot.
His sudden change in foot usage confused Courtois who couldn’t react early.
The ball cut through the air with curl and precision, showcasing the effectiveness and ingenuity of the trivela.
The ball went past the outstretched hand of Thibaut Courtois before homing into the top corner.
The stadium went silent momentarily before it erupted into cheers.
“Gooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal.
Valencia are back within one and who better than their little talisman.
What did you expect?
It was Izan; he was always going to do something special,” the commentator screamed as Izan ran towards the corner flag.
The Valencia fans saw him approach their stand before he suddenly slowed down.
Reaching the fans, Izan raised both hands in front of his chest with palms facing downward while making a steadying motion.
The Real Madrid fans who saw this couldn’t help but be irked by Izan’s version of the “Calma Celebration ” which was popularised by their legend, Cristiano Ronaldo.
The cheers of the away crowd rose a notch as Izan’s teammates jumped onto him.
Izan couldn’t hold on any longer and collapsed under the pile of bodies.
“Exciting scenes at the Santiago Bernabéu.
Valencia has drawn level.
19th minute here, it’s Real Madrid 1, Valencia 1” Standing in the middle of the field, Jude Bellingham watched as Valencia celebrated their goal.
“What a surprise,” he said, sarcastically as the Valencia players returned to their half.
Reaching where Jude stood, Izan also showed his index finger to Jude Bellingham, signifying his goal as Jude had done earlier.
The LED that wrapped around the stadium interior displayed the scoreboard which showed a goal for each team as Bellingham stood over the ball.
After everything was set, the referee blew his whistle once more to restart the match.
The cheers around the stadium were deafening, and the excitement boiled over.
The fans of both sides began their chants, each side looking to inspire their team to score.
For a while, there was a back-and-forth between the fans who were trying to one-up each other, as well as the players on the field who were trying to put the ball at the back of the opponent’s net.
