The 2-2 scoreline against Arsenal, the league leaders, felt like a victory in itself for Aston Villa. Leon Fischer, his 'Current: 84' pulsing with every beat of his heart, had just scored a magnificent free-kick, leveling the game.
The roar of Villa Park was deafening, a wave of raw emotion that fueled his exhausted body.
The remaining twenty minutes of the match were a whirlwind of relentless action.
Arsenal, stung by Leon's equalizer, pushed even harder, their 'Current' ratings glowing with fierce determination. Villa, on the other hand, dug deep, matching their intensity, their spirit unyielding.
Coach Emery made some changes, bringing on fresh legs. Moussa Diaby (Potential: 88, Current: 85) replaced Leon Bailey (Current: 84) on the wing, adding more pace and directness. Leon, despite his immense fatigue, stayed on.
His 'sight' was now a constant, almost unconscious flow of predictions, guiding his every move.
