God Of football - Chapter 136
Chapter 136: This Is Bad Chapter 136: This Is Bad “Fweeeee Fweeeeee fweeeeeeeeee” The referee glanced at his watch while blowing the whistle bringing the game to a close.
“It’s all over here at the Santiago Bernabéu.
A clash between two sides who have fought tooth and nail.
It’s a game with everything: goals, tackles and passion.
Real Madrid, looked the favourite for the win heading into this game but Valencia have held onto a point.
Valencia will be pleased with the draw but Real Madrid won’t.
The team which benefits from this match didn’t even partake, as Barcelona can go one point clear of Madrid if they are able to win tomorrow.
It was Real Madrid 3, Valencia CF 3.
My name is Juno Celeberas and a very good night to everyone”.
The Valencia fans in the away stand stood up and started applauding the performance of the players.
Their chants drowned that of the home fans who had started leaving the stadium.
The Valencia players didn’t leave the fans hanging as they also applauded their fans, led by Gaya.
“I think I won this round”.
Jude Bellingham, who was heading towards the tunnel, heard a voice from behind and turned to find Izan.
He smiled slightly at the latter’s words before nodding.
“Yeah, I guess you won this bout.
Wanna swap?” Jude said, pointing to his jersey.
“Sure” Izan replied as the duo exchanged jerseys.
The two talked all the way to the tunnel before splitting to their respective locker rooms.
…..
“I’m proud of you guys.
Even though we didn’t win, holding Real Madrid to a draw at their home is still something to be proud of.
I hope we can continue like this till the end of the season” Baraja said after all the players had entered the locker room.
After his speech, Ruben Baraja turned to where Izan sat.
He walked up to the player looking a bit concerned.
“I saw you take a hit from Rüdiger; how is it?”.
Izan looked up at the concerned face of his coach and smiled.
“I’m hurting a bit but I’ll be fine”.
Baraja nodded at Izan’s words while standing from his squatting position.
“Well, then join me for the post-match conference”.

Izan, nodding at Baraja’s words, headed to the shower before joining the Coach in front of the press.
….
The post-match conference after Valencia’s exhilarating 3-3 draw with Real Madrid was charged with emotion, dominated by discussions of one name: Izan.
The 15-year-old wonderkid not only scored twice for Valencia but delivered a moment of magic that left fans and pundits in awe-a last-gasp goal-line clearance followed by a mesmerizing solo run culminating in a goal.
Dressed in Valencia’s orange tracksuit, Izan walked into the press room with a mix of humility and quiet confidence.
The reporters leaned forward eagerly, ready to dissect the moment that had captivated millions.
“Let’s begin,”, the organiser said.
A few questions were thrown out but most were about his second goal.
When asked what was going through his mind during the incredible sequence, Izan smiled thoughtfully.
“To be honest, I didn’t have much time to think,” he began.
“When I saw the ball heading toward the line, my instinct was to stop it.
After that, it felt like everything slowed down.
I saw the space in front of me and just started running.
I wasn’t sure I’d make it, but I told myself, ‘Why not try?'” One reporter asked if Izan felt pressure from the growing spotlight but he responded with maturity beyond his years: “Pressure is part of the game.
I’m just focused on helping my team and improving every day.
The rest will take care of itself.” The reporters jotted a few things down after Izan spoke.
After he was done answering questions, Izan walked out, leaving Baraja on his own.
“This kid,” Baraja said after Izan left.
When asked about Izan, Valencia coach Rubén Baraja couldn’t hide his admiration.
“Izan is not just a talent-he’s a phenomenon,” Baraja said.
“That sequence wasn’t just about skill; it was about heart, intelligence, and courage.
To stop a sure goal at one end and create one at the other is something you rarely see, especially from someone his age.” Baraja, however, acknowledged the team’s defensive struggles, saying, “We need to be more compact to capitalize on moments like these.” “We can’t always rely on Izan.
We at Valencia are thinking of doing some business in the upcoming window to lessen Izan’s workload” After he finished speaking, a reporter raised his hand and asked a question after being given the opportunity, “Speaking of the upcoming window, a few clubs have started inquiring about Izan.
What is the club’s reaction to this?” Ruben Baraja frowned a bit after the reporter’s question but kept his composure.
“We haven’t received any such inquiry and according to Izan and his agent, they haven’t entertained any thoughts of leaving the club”.
After answering the question, Baraja declined any further ones and walked out, handing the conference over to Carlo Ancelotti, who had just entered.
Real Madrid’s coach, Carlo Ancelotti, also addressed Izan’s performance.
“What Izan did was extraordinary.
You don’t often see a player capable of influencing both ends of the pitch like that.
It’s frustrating to be on the receiving end, but credit to him.” Ancelotti also noted his team’s missed chances, lamenting their inability to secure the win despite scoring three goals.
The media buzzed with questions about Izan’s future, with some dubbing him “Valencia’s Golden Boy” and others suggesting that he might currently be one of the best players in Europe.
The online reaction to Izan’s breathtaking solo goal against Real Madrid was nothing short of a digital explosion.
Fans, players, and pundits from all corners of the football world took to social media to share their awe and disbelief at the 15-year-old’s audacious feat.
On Twitter, clips of Izan’s goal went viral within minutes.
Fans couldn’t get enough of the sequence, starting with his crucial goal-line clearance and ending with his unstoppable finish.
@FootballFrenzy: “WHAT DID I JUST WATCH?!
Izan clears it off the line, then DRIBBLES the entire Madrid defence to score!
This kid is from another planet!” @ValenciaTillIDie: “Izan didn’t just save us, he carried us.
From the goal line to the back of their net.
This is Messi at 19 levels of insane, and he’s only 15!” @NeutralFan_101: “Forget Ballon d’Or debates, can we just give Izan his now?!” @Izanlover_777: Guys chill.
The Ballon d’Or debate can wait after Spain wins the euros and Valencia wins the Laliga.
Even official football accounts chimed in: @LaLiga: “15 years old.
Goal-line clearance.
Solo run.
Nutmeg finish.
Izan is rewriting history in real-time.” On other social media handles like TikTok and Instagram, the goal was turned into trending edits with captions like “Remember this name: Izan” and “One-man army vibes.” A slowed-down version of the run, set to epic music, garnered millions of likes within hours.
Fans highlighted the way Izan effortlessly skipped past Madrid’s midfield and defenders, likening it to something out of a video game.
In comment sections, fans poured out their admiration: “This is the kind of stuff you dream about doing in your backyard as a kid.” “15 years old and making seasoned defenders look like cones.
Unreal!” “When he scooped the ball off the line, I thought he was just clearing it.
Turns out, he was starting a movie”.
“Izan for the #Puskas” Comparisons to legendary players were inevitable.
Fans debated whether the goal was reminiscent of a young Lionel Messi, a prime Cristiano Ronaldo, or even Diego Maradona’s iconic solo effort.
Some even suggested the move had shades of all three.
“Messi vs.
Getafe?
Maradona vs.
England?
Add Izan vs.
Madrid to the list of GOAT goals.” “This wasn’t just a goal.
It was a statement.
The future of football is here.” Football legends also chimed in.
Former players hailed the goal as one of the most incredible moments they’d seen.
Pundits analyzed every touch, praising Izan’s composure, vision, and sheer audacity.
Cesc FÃ bregas: “This kid is something else.
I don’t know what’s more impressive-the clearance or the finish.” Even fans who didn’t support Valencia or Real Madrid couldn’t help but appreciate the sheer brilliance of the goal.
It transcended club rivalries and became a moment for the love of the sport.
“I’m a Barça fan, but respect where it’s due.
Izan is unreal.” “This kid is why we love football.
Moments like this remind you why the game is magic.” By the end of the night, #IzanWonderGoal and #GoalOfTheSeason were trending worldwide, and fans were already adding his name to “next-gen” lists.
As one fan eloquently put it: “This wasn’t just a goal; it was the arrival of a legend in the making.” Away from all this, Izan, together with his teammates, had just arrived at the Cuidad Deportiva de Paterna.
Ruben Baraja, who was still a bit concerned for Izan, immediately arranged for the head physio to check Izan’s condition.
[In the physio room] “Haaaaah, this is bad” A/n: Still not feeling well guys.
Anyways have fun with this one.
