God Of football - Chapter 58
Chapter 58: Unplayable Chapter 58: Unplayable After Izan’s goal, Osasuna went defensive.
It seemed like they didn’t want to concede again.
It might have also been a tactical revision but the Osasuna fans couldn’t take it and started showing their discomfort.
The Clock on the LED board showed that there were about 35 minutes still left to play; therefore, they didn’t understand why their team started playing defensively.
They understood that the team didn’t want to concede but not taking the initiative to attack would mean that they were throwing this match.
While the Osasuna fans were showing their dissatisfaction, the Valencia fans, on the other hand, were having a blast.
It had been a while since they won 3 games straight at the start of the season.
“Our team looks so good this season,” a Valencia fan said.
“You said it, bro.
It’s like a whole new team,” another fan said.
“If they continue like this, it won’t be hard to pick up some silverware, like the Copy del Rey”, the fan added.
The Valencia fans were now fantasizing about winning trophies.
One could almost see them drooling when thinking about trophies.
” Izan has been a revelation since the end of last season and during the preseason too but it seems he’s gotten even better this season” “Yeah he’s better than he was during the preseason but I hope the club doesn’t sell him for a while” a middle-aged man spoke “Since he’s playing like this, he’s bound to be sold but I hope they keep him here for a while.
He’s going to help the club” another fan added.
Talking about Izan’s potential transfer to other clubs made the fans feel a bit sour.
Big clubs like Barcelona and Real Madrid in the league can keep their players for long periods.
On the other hand, teams like Valencia find it hard to do the same.
Most players can not resist the temptations of a big club.
At times, too, it had to do with the club’s sporting future or project as many players want to be remembered, and what better way than winning trophies?
The fans kept on talking until the sound of a whistle from the pitch caught their attention.
The Valencia fans saw Izan on the ground for the umpteenth time today.
The Valencia fans proceeded to show their dissatisfaction.
Izan had been fouled again and again since the start of this match and most at times,the Osasuna players were only warned.
The culprit was none other than David Garcia.
The referee, after blowing the whistle, sighed.
David Garcia had been playing roughly since the start of the match and had even been carded for the earlier foul on Izan.
And now, he had gone and done it again.Perhaps sensing the dissatisfaction of the fans the referee already knew what he had to do.
He approached David Garcia who also knew what was about to happen.
The referee took the yellow card and showed Garcia his second of the game before pulling out the red card.

Garcia didn’t try to debate the referee’s decision and started heading towards the tunnel.
Coach Baraja, who was on the touchline, frowned.
The frequency of the tackles on Izan had increased and he knew he had to do something before the worst occured.
“Moreno,” he said drawing the attention of the assistant coach.
“Tell Javi Guerra to warm up, he’s going on in 3”.
Assistant Coach Moreno nodded before signalling to Javi Guerra.
“Can you play?” Gaya said to Izan after the latter picked up the ball.
“Yeah, I can” Izan replied.
“I’m probably going out after this” he added while pointing to the bench.
Jose Gaya followed Izan’s finger and saw Javi Guerra warming up.
“He’s afraid you could get injured,” Gaya said with a smile.
Izan smiled slightly before putting the ball down at the spot indicated by the referee.
He looked into the box to see if anything good could come out of this freekick.
“I’d use [rocket], but I’m not convinced from this distance,” Izan thought.
” Let’s just get this over with” Izan thought again before taking a few steps back.
The referee, after making sure everything was in place, blew his whistle.
Izan, with the runup, sent the ball into the box.
The ball cut through the air with precision on its way.
Cenk Ozkacar, who found the ball coming his way, went forward and jumped to meet the ball in the air.
With a swift motion, he directed the ball towards the opponent’s goal.
Sergio Herrera, with a spectacular reflexive action, got a hand on the ball, but it was not enough as the ball powered through his outstretched hand to rustle the net.
The Valencia fans went crazy again after the fourth goal.
Cenk Ozkacar, after seeing the ball enter the goal, ran towards Izan while pointing at him.
Izan, who saw Cenk coming his way, felt a bit scared as he knew what the latter was going to do.
Cenk, after getting to where Izan was, jumped onto the latter, sending them both tumbling onto the ground.
The other players followed suit and continued piling themselves on top of each other.
Not wanting to be left out, the players on the bench also joined in on the fun.
Izan, who was beneath this mountain of men, smiled wryly.
The players got up after a while at the urging of the referee and Izan who was beneath them.
The Valencia players returned to their respective positions after the celebrations.
Before the Osasuna striker could restart the game, the referee pointed to the touchline.
Izan, who saw his number in red, started heading towards the bench.
The Valencia fans who saw Izan going off all got up from their seats and started clapping for the kid.
[Commentator’s Pov] ‘There he is.
2 months to 16 and already getting standing ovations from the fans.
Izan was unplayable today.
With two goals and two assists in this match, Izan brings his tally for this season to 4 goals and 4 assists in just 3 games.
This is just ridiculous.
Not even 16 yet and he’s taken this division by storm.
I hope he can go on like this and I for one can’t wait for him to mature ‘ Izan, after high-fiving Javi Guerra, proceeded to hug Coach Baraja.
“Very good display Izan,” Baraja said while pulling Izan in for a hug.
“Thanks, Coach” Izan replied before heading to the bench.
The kit manager shook Izan’s hand whilst handing him one of the club’s padded jackets.
Izan smiled at the former and took the jacket.
After the changes, the match continued.
The Osasuna players seemed to have lost their spirit after the restart and started making some amateurish mistakes.
Lucky for them,the Valencia players couldn’t capitalise on these errors.
The Osasuna Coach, Jagoba Arrasate, who saw this, started making some changes too.
To keep his team from conceding again, he brought in two defenders.
This would do till the end of the match as Valencia couldn’t score anymore.
‘FWEEE FWEEE,FWEEEEE’ The referee blew his whistle after looking at his watch.
[Commentator Pov] ‘ It’s over folks.
Valencia has come out on top in this exciting match fixture.
Osasuna looks devastated after receiving such a battering.
They will be looking to improve upon this performance.
Its Valencia [4], Osasuna [1] ‘ Izan headed towards the pitch after the referee blew the whistle.
The Valencia fans and players were all smiles after the match and they seemed to relish in their victory.
“Look”, Pietro said to Izan while nodding in a direction.
Izan turned around to see what Pietro was pointing at and saw a cardboard held up in the air by a little kid.
“Can I get your Jersey,Izan” was displayed on the Cardboard.
Izan, who saw this, started heading towards the kid.
[In the stands] “Mom, do you think he will give it to me” Ciro asked his mom.
“I don’t know if he can see, but he’ll definitely give it to you if he notices it”, Valentina said to comfort her child.
Ciro knew that the chances were low but he had to try.
Ciro, who had his head down, heard a voice which prompted him to raise his head.
“Hey kid, My name is Izan.
What is yours” Izan said.
Ciro, after raising his head, was starstruck.
“I thought you wanted my jersey”, Izan said with a smile.
Ciro, who heard this, nodded and said, “I-Izan, um, yes, I want your jersey”, stammering a bit.
“Can I get your autograph too” Ciro added with an expectant face.
“Sure,” Izan said.
“And a picture too” Ciro spoke again.
Izan smiled at him and said, ” Do you want a hug too?”.
Ciro, who heard this, nodded.
Izan, after seeing Ciro nod, took out a jersey and signed his name on it before taking a picture with Ciro.
Ciro thanked Izan profusely whilst receiving envious stares from the other fans.
“Should have brought a cardboard too” one fan said.
Valentina also thanked Izan before the latter headed back to the pitch.
“My friends are going to be so jealous when I show this to them,”, Ciro said meekly.
The Stadium started emptying as the satisfied Valencia fans went home with smiles on their faces.
