章節 649: Stage Set for the World Cup Semi-Finals

Zachary was finally drawn back into the fray by his teammates. They clapped him on the back, congratulating him for his pivotal role in their victory. His goal in the 50th minute had been a turning point, a moment of magic that shifted the momentum in their favor. 

But Zachary understood that it was not just his brilliance but the relentless team effort that brought them this far. Every player had given their all, and that collective pursuit of glory had seen them through.

Coach Renard gathered the team in a huddle on the field. His voice, usually calm and instructive, was filled with emotion. "You have made history today," he told them. "But this is just the beginning. Believe in yourselves. Believe in each other, and we can achieve even greater things. The finals are within our reach."
