God Of football - Chapter 76

Chapter 76: Que Viva Espana Chapter 76: Que Viva Espana “I haven’t been following Laliga much this season, so I haven’t noticed him but I’m going to pay attention to Valencia’s matches because of him”.

“Spain has hope.

If he goes on like this, this Euros will be exciting”.

A lot more conversations like these were made verbal around the stadium.

The Spanish fans were excited by this new prospect.

Izan had a bit of a tough time getting away from the fans after celebrating with them.

Most congratulated him but others didn’t even want to let go of him.

Izan smiled wryly as the stewards stepped in to help.

A moment later, Izan was headed towards the pitch.

The referee didn’t stall much and blew his whistle after the players got in position.

The shrill sound of a whistle sounded once more to bring the game to a close.

The Georgian players hung their heads low like defeated generals.

Their fans, too, were a bit saddened by the defeat, but their team wasn’t to blame.

The Georgian fans that had stayed even began clapping for the players.

The players reciprocated their gesture and did the same towards the fans.

On the other side of the coin, the Spanish fans were jubilant.

Some indulged in a Spanish chant, ‘Que Viva Espana ‘ while others just let loose and shouted.

The Spanish players, on the other hand, thanked the fans for their support in the match.

The players didn’t exit the pitch after the match but lingered around a bit.

Izan found this opportunity and got his mum and sister to the pitch.

Miranda and Olivia, too, were able to go on the pitch due to their relationship with Izan.

“Ahhhh, my baby Miura,” Komi said with a quiet scream as she held Izan by the cheeks.

” Did you think Mum would not come for your first game with the national team?

I wouldn’t miss it for the world,” Komi added after Izan tried to escape her grasp.

Miranda and Olivia, coupled with Hori, laughed at Izan’s reaction to Komi grabbing his cheeks as the former seemed embarrassed.

Izan saw Pedri standing a bit near, so he called him, hoping he could help his situation.

That seemed to work as Komi let go of Izan’s cheeks the moment she heard him call someone over.

Pedri approached the group and exchanged greetings with them.

He continued to talk with them for a while before leaving.

The group continued talking with Izan for a bit before saying their goodbyes.

“Mum can’t come and watch you in Germany, so take care of yourself, okay,” Komi said but Hori interrupted, “If you can’t go, why are you stopping me?

I haven’t been to Germany before” Hori fired.

She had been wanting to travel together with Miranda for the trip to Germany but Komi had not let her.

“Oh, Hori, are you going to leave your helpless mother alone?” Komi said, faking a sad expression.

Hori knew what she was doing and wouldn’t indulge in her anymore so she just walked off.

“This one is too cold.

She didn’t even bat an eye.

That ungrateful kid” Komi said before following Hori.

Miranda, too, left with the two under the guise of catching up, even though it had only been a few days since she had seen them.

“You were great today,” Olivia said as she stared down.

“Thanks, I had help” Izan said as he looked at Olivia.

“Yeah, your teammates did well too,” Olivia spoke, not understanding the kind of help Izan meant.

Izan smiled as Olivia didn’t seem to understand what he meant.

The two paced around a bit while making small talk.

“Should we take a picture ” Izan offered after both seemed to have lost words.

Olivia revealed her white row of teeth as she nodded at Izan’s suggestion.

The duo came closer for the camera and took a few pictures.

“Izan, I hate to be that guy, but we don’t have that much time” Joaquin interrupted the duo.

Olivia blushed a bit a this before looking at Izan.

Izan smiled wryly and turned to look at Olivia.

“Guess I’ll see you later,” he said after making eye contact.

Olivia nodded as she let go of Izan’s hand.

“I’ll call you,” she said as she walked away.

“You little charmer Joaquin said after Olivia was out of earshot.

Izan just smiled at Joaquin’s words and walked away.

Izan got to the dressing room and saw that most of his teammates were leaving for the bus.

He quickly took a shower and organised his things before joining the team on the bus.

Oddly enough, he wasn’t the last person on the bus.

Izan sat in his seat and nestled into it.

Just as Izan tried to get some shut-eye, Olivia sent over the pictures.

Izan stared at the screen in front of him and smiled.

Izan decided to upload these pictures on his social media handles together with a few photos Miranda got from a photographer.

Izan captioned it nicely, Mostly talking about his excitement about being on the team.

Izan turned his screen off and got back to doing what he does best after football.

Izan slept until he was woken up by the bus coming to a halt.

The players, drained of their energies quickly went to their rooms.

Izan followed suit but soon realised that he couldn’t sleep.

He exited his room and came down to the snack bar for something to fill his stomach.

“Couldn’t sleep”.

Izan turned to look at who it was and found Pedri behind him.

“You too, huh” Izan replied before taking the cookie jar.

Pedri nodded at Izan’s words as the latter proceeded to take juice boxes.

“Here,” Izan said as he threw one of the juice boxes at Pedri.

Pedri caught it and watched as Izan put down the cookie jar.

“I slept a bit on the bus, so I get why I’m not sleepy,”, Izan said as he poked the straw through the hole in the box.

“How was today” Pedri asked as he proceeded to munch on some of the cookies.

“Exhilarating.

The moments were spectacular.

Plus I scored two goals and made an assist.

Perfect debut for me,” Izan answered.

“Can’t wait to get to Berlin”, Izan added with a smile, which was leading more towards a grin.

Pedri looked at the boy beside him and shook his head.

“Then keep it up over the next few days in training so that your game time can improve” Pedri spoke.

“You know, you’re truly one of a kind ” the latter added after staring at Izan for a while.

“I won’t be leaving Valencia “, Izan said abruptly, causing Pedri to stop his monologue before it even began.

“Okay you got me” Pedri raised his hand in the air as if caught doing something bad.

“I don’t want to leave Valencia before accomplishing something, ” Izan said as his expression softened.

“You know, I thought you were only saying it because that guy from your club was with us”, Pedri uttered.

Izan looked at Pedri after he said these words.

“But I’m glad you’re loyal.

At least you won’t pull a ‘Luis Figo’ on us when you join us later” Pedri said jokingly.

Izan also laughed at his remark.

“Is this hotel possessed?

Why am I hearing laughter at this time ” Alex Baena said when he got to the snack bar.

“Cookie?” Izan asked when he got near.

Alex Baena looked at the jar before agreeing.

Izan also took out another juice box and passed it to him.

The trio sat there quietly, enjoying the silence and the cookie.

The night ended as quickly as it came.

Izan went out for his daily mission when he saw daybreak.

After completing his mission and sweating a bit, he headed back to his room.

Finding nothing to do after taking a bath, Izan sank, into his bed again.

The players went over the same routine as they had done before the match with Georgia.

Eat, train, eat some more, train some more, then sleep.

The players would be found playing games when they weren’t doing these three things.

Izan would talk to his mother and sister when he wasn’t playing.

He also went over a few details with Miranda over the deal with Adidas.

He’d finally have a chat with Olivia if she was available.

“I’ll be getting busy soon” Izan said at the thought of going to school after the match with Germany.

“Hold on Miura, Hold on.

You have to do it.

Do it to make mom and dad proud” Izan comforted himself as thoughts of dropping out continued to linger.

Time ticked by as they got a day closer to the game against Germany.

The Spain players had their evening session with a match.

Izan once again showed his vision and passing ability in this game, making 3 assits.

“Keep sending those kind of balls to me and we won’t have a problem against Germany” Morata said with a confident laugh.

The other Spain players laughed at Izan’s expression which seemed to wonder what was going on with Morata.

The players soon went for dinner before packing as they waited to get on the plane to Germany the next day.

A/n: Hello guys,late chapter day.

At this point, my eyes are hurting from all the screens.
