Like a God.
It was a strong word, an offensive word to some, but he used it.
The commentators used it because they could not help it. Watching Sam erupt like some monster, tearing the fearsome Inter Milan defense down with sheer brilliance, they could not hold themselves from comparing him to a God.
A football God.
In the 55th minute of this game, Sam scored.
55 minutes, 0-1…
Aggregate, 3-4…
After what seemed like forever, FC Barcelona were ahead again in the semifinal tie of the UEFA Champions League.
The traveling FC Barcelona fans celebrated for a long time, their excitement levels rising to an entirely new crescendo in this semifinal.
And then…
FWEEE!
The referee's whistle sounded, the signal to continue the game.
The Inter Milan fans across the stadium roared, turning the San Siro even more heated. This time, their voices were more aggressive, more hostile and slightly panicked. Clearly, they wanted their team to go on the attack.
