402 Advancement Part 1

The stands in the City Ground stadium reached a fever pitch as the crowd watched the football go into the net.

"Everyone has been guessing when Eastwood's first comeback game would be. No one believed that Eastwood could return to his former standard after his recovery. They all thought that it was a miracle for the Romanito return to the field at all. But! Freddy Eastwood used this goal to tell us that all our speculations were wrong! Ten months later, he's still the same Freddy Eastwood!"

Motson fired away at the microphone like a machine gun.

Mark Lawrenson was completely silent. This goal seemed like a slap in his face. Conventionally, it was very difficult for a seriously wounded player to return to his previous level. He had not expected Eastwood to fly in the face of convention!
