"My God!"
"What a goal!"
"What an incredible solo run!"
"What a finish!"
"King Endrickdinho strikes again and Sao Luis is back ahead!"
"GOALLL…!" From the left side of the pitch, Nicolas ran to the corner flag ahead of his captain to celebrate like a man possessed.
The full team was ecstatic.
As for the man himself?
Endrick did not rush as he jogged towards the corner flag in a charismatic manner. Getting there, he stopped before spreading his arms as if embracing the atmosphere of this stadium as he did the Jude Bellingham open arms celebration.
"BOO…!"
"BOO…!"
Endrick was drenched in boos but amid the boos, he heard them.
"King Endrickdinho!"
"King Endrickdinho!"
"King Endrickdinho…!"
The fans chanted the name of their warriors like their lives depended on it to out-shout the loud Janeiro FC fans.
It was a battle in the stands in as much as it was a battle on the pitch.
