The stadium was electric. Everyone was on their feet, screaming at the top of their lungs.
No one had expected the Chen Clan to score, let alone score in such fashion.
It was not a scrappy deflection.
Not a lucky rebound.
It was a clean chip.
The technique had been flawless. The composure, extraordinary.
On the pitch, the Chen Clan Matriarch completely abandoned her usual dignified bearing. She ran several steps onto the field and leapt into the air, shouting in unrestrained joy.
Her face glowed with exhilaration.
She laughed freely, without restraint.
Around her, the clan elders were equally ecstatic. They jumped and cheered like children. Though they were still trailing by two goals, that single strike had shifted the emotional tide.
It was their goal.
And that alone changed everything.
