872 The Clinching Shot

Wood did not quite understand why the boss asked about something that happened 11 years ago at this time, but he was not in the mind to guess the reason behind it. Once he threw himself back in the game, he only had the opponent on his mind.

Real Madrid intended to take advantage of the favorable situation to continue to attack. He absolutely could not allow that. Nottingham Forest had to regain the initiative on the pitch in some way. Although they kicked off in the second half, the football fell to the feet of the Real Madrid players at some point.

This time, George Wood stepped up and helped the team regain possession of the ball with his excellent defensive ability.

By the time the game reached the 105th minute, the players on both sides were close to exhaustion. George Wood was only slightly better off than them. Since he was the team captain, he could not show fatigue.
