An edgy game!
Counter!
One of the deadliest dark arts of football.
In the 21st century, a prime Real Madrid mastered this art of football.
With a prime Gareth Bale bombing down the right flanks of the field, sending hearts throbbing in fear, and a tireless Benzema running down straight through the middle, most teams could do nothing else but cower in fear.
And with the inevitable Cristiano Ronaldo, famously known as CR7 bombing down the left, it was game over to most opposition.
BAM!
Fernandinho struck the ball with power and accuracy.
It arrived at its target with literally no deviations.
This was the advantage of a good defensive midfielder.
Pak!
As soon as Nicolas controlled this ball, he looked upward and he saw only 3 players ahead of him.
Campos, Araujo, Salvador's 2 center backs, and Galhardo, Salvador's right back, these were the only players that were ahead of him at this moment.
