Chapter 167: A Must-Win Game
November 11th, 2010
The wind wasn't just cold today it was biting, almost angry, as if it had something to prove.
It whipped across the training ground like a blade, stinging cheeks and numbing fingers, making the floodlights hum with a high-pitched whine that seemed to echo everyone's tension.
It felt harsh, almost personal.
And yet, strangely, it was the only familiar thing.
Everything else felt… different.
The air was thick with anticipation, charged like the moment before a storm.
There was a quiet energy in every movement, every breath, as if something big was just around the corner.
The team was getting ready for their Europa League away match against Rosenborg and this one felt bigger than the rest.
The pressure was real.
Everyone could feel it.
This wasn't just another game.
It was a test, and they all knew it.
This wasn't just a practice.
It was a statement.
Out on the pitch, the players moved with quiet intensity.
