Chapter 93: The Heart Of Valencia

”And here we go, Valencia on the break! Izan picks up the ball deep in his half—look at the pace on him!

He skips past one or two Atletico players, leaving them in his wake. What a burst of acceleration! This is incredible from the youngster—he’s gliding through the midfield like a hot knife through butter.

He’s into the final third now, with defenders scrambling to close him down. A quick feint to the right, and he cuts inside—brilliant footwork! Izan’s through on goal! It’s just him and Oblak!

He winds up—strikes it low and hard to the bottom corner—AND IT’S IN! Izan beats one of the best goalkeepers in the world with absolute composure! Oblak is left sprawling, and the ball nestles beautifully into the net. What a goal!

The Valencia fans are going absolutely wild in the stands. That was a solo effort for the ages! Izan has just written his name into the headlines with that dazzling run and finish. Sheer class from the young star!”

The roar of Valencia fans at the Wanda Metropolitano was deafening as the ball hit the back of the net, sending the thousands of Los Che supporters into rapturous celebration.

Dressed in the iconic white and black, the Valencia faithful exploded with joy, their chants and cheers echoing throughout the stadium.

Arms were thrown into the air as fans hugged one another, some jumping wildly while others stood frozen in disbelief, savouring the moment.

Scarves were twirled high above their heads, and flags were waved proudly, transforming the stands into a sea of Valencia’s colours.

The players rushed towards the corner to celebrate with their travelling supporters, further igniting the euphoric crowd.

Flares erupted, casting a fiery glow over the jubilant fans as chants of ”Amunt Valencia!” grew louder and louder.

The stadium, though shared with rival supporters, felt like home for those precious seconds as Valencia’s faithful made their presence unmistakably known.

Back in Valencia, the goal was celebrated just as fervently. Fans packed into bars and public squares erupted with the same intensity, creating a carnival-like atmosphere in the streets.

In the city’s Plaza del Ayuntamiento, the cheers could be heard blocks away as fans waved flags, banged drums, and embraced strangers like lifelong friends. Fireworks lit up the night sky, and the sound of car horns became a symphony of celebration.

Across the globe, Valencia’s goal united their fans in an outpouring of joy. Watch parties in London pubs, bustling cafes in New York, and even small gatherings in cities like Tokyo and Sydney turned into scenes of pandemonium.

Social media buzzed with reactions as fans shared videos of their celebrations, flooding timelines with hashtags and emotional tributes to the team.

For Valencia’s diaspora, this moment was a bridge to home, a reminder of their roots and the community they belong to.

Whether at the Wanda Metropolitano, in Valencia’s streets, or halfway around the world, the reaction was the same: pure, unbridled passion.

This goal wasn’t just a moment in a match—it was a collective expression of pride, love, and unwavering support for Los Che. It was a moment that reminded everyone why football is called the beautiful game.

....

”Are we still going to let him come off?” Moreno asked Baraja, who had regained composure. ”No, no, why would we do that” Baraja said, forgetting he was the one who brought up that notion.

Assistant Coach Moreno shook his head at Baraja.

On the other side of the Coaching area, Diego Simeone stood, staring at the clock on the LED displays around the stadium.

He sighed at the scoreline and proceeded to make his last substitution in hopes of getting, at the very least, a draw.

The Valencia players returned to their half after their goal beaming with smiles. The Atlético players, on the other hand, were downcast.

Griezmann tried to rally the guys, but it didn’t work because he was also downcast, but as the captain, he had to do it.

The tension was palpable at the Wanda Metropolitano as Atlético Madrid pushed forward relentlessly in the 82nd minute, desperately seeking an equalizer against Valencia.

The home crowd roared with anticipation, urging their team on as the red-and-white-clad players swarmed the attacking third.

Izan, together with his teammates had retreated to their box in hopes of defending their lead. Atlético, on the other hand, pushed on relentlessly.

84’

Koke orchestrated the play from midfield, threading a precise pass to Antoine Griezmann just outside the box.

The Frenchman, ever the danger man, danced past his Mark with a clever flick before laying the ball off to Álvaro Morata.

Morata turned sharply, shielding the ball from two Valencia defenders after receiving it before firing a low shot toward the far corner.

Valencia’s goalkeeper, however, was equal to the task, diving full stretch to parry the effort away. The rebound fell to Ángel Correa, who unleashed a thunderous strike, but it was met with a heroic block by Izan who had anticipated such a situation, throwing himself in front of the shot to preserve Valencia’s lead.

The Valencia crowd roared at the defensive action of Izan. His teammates surrounded him, giving him pats on the back and the head.

If it wasn’t for him, they might have lost their lead. The same couldn’t be said for the Atlético crowd who could taste an equalizer only for the ball from Correa to be blocked. Now, a few were throwing angry gazes at Izan.

The throw-in was recycled back to Atlético’s wings, where Yannick Carrasco surged down the left flank.

He whipped in a venomous cross into the box, causing chaos as Morata rose highest, meeting it with a powerful header.

The ball seemed destined for the top corner, but Valencia’s Marmadashvili miraculously tipped it over the bar, earning a deafening cheer from the travelling supporters.

The ensuing corner saw Atlético flood the penalty area, with even Oblak eyeing the chance to join the attack.

There were only a few seconds on the clock, so Oblak was trying to see if he could be of help. If the corner didn’t work, they would still lose, but if it worked, they could draw level, and he would be hailed as a hero.

Griezmann delivered an inswinging ball that ricocheted off a cluster of players before falling to Rodrigo De Paul on the edge of the box. He struck it sweetly on the half-volley, but the shot was deflected just wide by a sprawling Valencia defender.

Oblak retreated to the halfway line and stood there waiting for the pass from Correa.

The Wanda Metropolitano buzzed with nervous energy, the home crowd willing their team forward, but Valencia’s disciplined resistance held strong. The clock ticked down, and with every passing second, frustration grew on the Atlético bench.

As Atlético regrouped, Valencia’s defence stood firm, prepared to put bodies on the line with every pass, shot, and cross.

Correa sent the ball to Oblak who controlled before looking in the box. Izan rushed at the keeper but the Atlético man sent the ball into the box.

It was a moment of pure drama, a clash of determination and resilience, as Atlético fought tooth and nail to breach Valencia’s defence, only to be met with unwavering defiance.

The cross from Oblak was headed against the post by Savić. The loose ball fell in front of Mark but the latter didn’t waste any time and sent the ball out of the box.

The roles reversed quickly as the Valencia fans cheered and breathed a sigh of relief while the Atlético fans panicked.

The ball from Mark fell in front of the halfway line.

Oblak who was a bit further away tried to close in on the ball. The Atlético players were still waiting in the box for another cross from Oblak, but then a gust of wind flashed past them as they saw a Valencia player with the number 21 at his back.

”Shit” Savić said as he also began running. Oblak approaching the ball also raised his head to find Izan speeding towards him.

The keeper’s heart sank as he scrambled to get to the ball but his effort wasn’t enough. Realising that Izan would get to the ball before he did, he turned back and started sprinting to his goal.

Lino and Savić narrowed the gap with Izan to a few metres. I,zan, who was spent got to the ball but soon found two men chasing after him like he took their wives.

”Should I go for it?” Izan thought as he looked at the goal which Oblak was nearing. ”Fuck it” Izan muttered before raising his left leg. Savic dragged Izan back as soon as the latter’s leg went through the ball but the deed was already done

The whole stadium looked on as Izan’s leg went through the ball like a knife cutting butter. The ball flew towards the goal and looked like it would go out but the ball descended sharply as soon as it got to its climax.

”Shit,” Oblak said after he found the ball on goal. The keeper entered the box as he raced against the ball.

Oblak lunged at the ball with the whole stadium looking on but Ultimately, the ball evaded his plan and entered the goal, rustling the net.

”OHHHH!!! WOWWW, How has he done that. Glorious from Izan. 15 years of age, and he’s already got his hat trick. You love to see talent like that.

At a young age, he’ already proving to be the heart of Valencia. Well then Valencia, Listen, Listen to your heartbeat.

What a masterclass from little Izan Miura Hernandez ”

The Valencia fans didn’t know how to react. Izan ran towards the travelling fans and slid in front of them before getting up to stomp on the ground.

Almost as if to say” This is My grounds ”. The Valencia fans burst into cheers seeing Izan celebrate.

Valencia had won.
