Chapter 688: Scudetto 2020/21 VII



Sczesny ran off his line as soon as he saw the ball fly in from the right flank and was just in time to contest with Lukaku for the ball mid-air.

{Romelu Lukaku!!!!} the commentator shouted but it was Sczesny who reached the ball first, punching it powerfully out of the penalty box.

Spinning wildly, the ball flew out of the penalty box and neared Ramsey who caught the ball on his chest and then volleyed it toward a racing Chiesa on the left flank.

Darting forward, Chiesa caught the ball with the tip of his foot, pushing it forward and past the halfway line, darting forward down the field.

{From defense to attack, Uventus have a counter attacking chance}

It was a three on three counterattack that comprised of Chiesa, Morata and Jason versus the three Inter Milan center backs.

While Chiesa continued dashing forward down the flanks, Morata raced with dashing pace down the center, doing his best to keep up with him.

Jason on the other hand, stayed a distance behind Morata, just barely keeping up with the counter attack's pace.

Bastoni charged down the flank, trying to get into Chiesa's way and stop or at the very least, slow down the counterattack while the remaining two center backs stayed in the center, trying to guard the front of their goal.

But while De Vrij was in a physical battle with Morata as they ran into the penalty box, Skriniar didn't know whether to slow his pace to stay with Jason, but internally debating that it would be better for him to guard the penalty box, Skriniar, continued to back away at top speed, staying in a position that should be easy for him to select which of the two Uventus forwards he would mark if the ball came in.

Bastoni finally reached Chiesa who had begun cutting in, but Chiesa didn't slow down and instead changed his direction, going back down the flank and forcing Bastoni to chase.

Seeing Chiesa approach the side of the penalty box, Morata increased his pace to escape from De Vrij and as luck would have it, as they clashed, Stephen De Vrij mistook his footing and stumbled, freeing Morata instantly.

Skriniar's brain rang alarms immediately when he saw his teammate fall and free the Uventus striker. Completely forgetting about Jason, Skriniar immediately ran over to mark Morata.

Halfway to Morata, he remembered Jason, but thinking to himself that Morata was a more dangerous aerial threat than Jason, he didn't turn back, but the moment he reached Morata, Chiesa swung the ball in from the left.

{Could this be the one!? Could this be the one that clinches it!}

Looking at the ball glide powerfully over into the penalty box and fly over him, Skriniar turned back to see that Jason had increased his pace to get into the ball's path in time and had taken to the air.

{Jason for the winner!?} the commentator screamed as Jason put his head to the ball.

The ball bounced off Jason's head, flying downward, bouncing before it reached Handanovic who had made a dive and flying over him and past the goal line. The second bounce of the ball was at the back of the net.

{GOLAZO!!!}

{GOAL FOR UVENTUS!}

{DYING MINUTES AND THEY TAKE THE LEAD AGAIN!}

{COMING IN FOR CHRISTIANO RONALDO AND PLAYING OUT OF POSITION, HE HAD HUGE SHOES TO FILL AND HE'S FILLED THEM PERFECTLY!}

{Perfect counterattack! Perfect cross! Perfect finish!}

Jason raced to the sidelines, put his left hand on his chest and did an old-school bow. Raising his head, he held an imaginary flower to his lips, kissed it and blew a kiss at the fans.

That was all he managed to do before he was slammed into from behind by his teammates.

Even the substitutes and some of the staff had rushed away from their technical area to join Jason on the sidelines.

The Uventus crowd had gone completely wild, screaming so much that banshees would be jealous.

{The whole team is joining in the celebrations here. Even the fans look like they want to jump onto the field} the commentator chuckled as he watched the Uventus team celebrate joyously on the sidelines.

The Inter Milan camp on the other hand did their best to wait patiently, trying to hold some hope within themselves that there was still a way back for them, but try as they might, they couldn't completely dispel the depressing thoughts that continuously arose in their heads.

The Uventus players soon remembered that the match wasn't over yet… officially.

They soon began returning to their half of the field to continue the game and the game soon kicked off again with the assistant referee holding up the board to signify that there would an additional five minutes.

Given five minutes of grace by the referee, the Inter Milan players played desperately, overloading the Uventus half of the field and continuously sending long balls forward, looking for a way back.

Striving to at least get an equalizer, they kept pushing for a goal, but the Uventus team that now had the Scudetto in their grasp, held on tightly, not willing to let it go for anything at this point in the game.

No matter how many times the Inter Milan team came knocking, the Uventus team kept the doors shut and by the time the referee finally blew his whistle for the last time that day, the whole stadium erupted in excited and joyous cheers.

{It is over!}

{The 2020/21 season Serie A title is staying with Uventus!}

{It's been a long season and many times, they looked like it was slipping away, but they showed great determination and forced their way back to the top of the table!}

{Now, without a doubt, they can go to sleep peacefully. They are the champions!}

{The fans are cheering loudly. Overjoyed and full of excitement. They have stood with their team all season. Basking in the wins, suffering the losses and they are happy to know that their faith wasn't misplaced}

{Every player on this team has put in the work and it cannot be said that they are not deserving of the results of the hard work and consistency over the course of the season}
