It All Begins
Sung Min ran back to his goal post and picked up the ball, 'I have to score this one at least before I think about defending their next attack."
He dropped the ball in front of his feet, 'Let's go!"
Then he starts moving with the ball towards the opposition's goal post.
The four opponents was already standing in position, waiting for Sung Min to reach them.
'I can't use my speed anymore, and if I lose the ball to them. They will instantly counter attack me and score, I need to be careful. Let's see if there is any other skill I can use apart from running.'

'Oh, I was given ten points for every goal I scored. I need to add the point somewhere.'
His player stats popped up on the screen once again.
'My Dribbling is 30, if I add the 30 extra points, it becomes 60. Then I will try to dribble past all 4 of them....'
Sung Min takes a deep breath, then looks at the four dudes waiting for him, 'No that's not possible, 60 is barely above average, and if I lose the ball while trying to dribble, they can easily counter attack and score...'
He is now standing face to face with the 4,

'If I have high shot power, then I don't have to get close before I score. I hope this works.'
Sung-Min kicked the ball past the first person and blew past him with speed. He turned around and started chasing after him.
The second person approached at a fast pace, trying to get to the ball before Sung-Min.
'He's fast! But!'
SungMin kicked the ball further, past the second person;
Before the guy could turn, Sung Min ran past him, the third guy slid on the ground to kick the ball away. His leg was just about to make contact with the ball when Sung-Min tipped the ball up so it could fly over the third guy. The guy sliding missed the ball but kicked Sung-Min on the leg instead, tripping him. The moment Sung-Min's body touched the floor, his life flashed before his eyes and he leaped up instantly and continued to run. The other two was almost an arms length away from catching up to him while the goal keeper is charging forward to reach the ball before him.
'I am faster, I am better, I am now unstoppable!!!'
Sung Min kicked the ball with the strength of every muscle in his right leg. The ball flew off like a bullet, none of their eyes was able to follow the ball because of how fast it travelled.
*Bang!!!!!*
The ball hits the goal post's woodwork and bounced back out.
'No... I didn't increase my shooting accuracy...' Sung Min felt an unusual calmness as he stood, panting, then the two people running behind him earlier dashed past him, headed for the rebound. The goal keeper that was out of the goal post started running back to get the ball too. The last guy started to run to Sung-Min's goal post so he can recieve that counter attack pass.
'Is this the end? I barely began...'
As he stood, his mind gets flooded by memories of his past. Reporters laughing at him, commentators saying hurtful things, the fans constantly booing him everytime he touched the ball. He took a deep breath, 'I am no longer that guy, and I have to make all of those people acknowledge me, before I die. So this is not where I fail!!'
He too began too run towards the ball, in a few seconds he ran past them.
The goalkeeper already reached to where the ball was, he then turned, looked up to see where the guy that was supposed to be at Sung-Min's goal post was. After seeing his position, he swung his leg to kick the ball to him but his feet smashes into Sung Min's thigh instead.
Sung Min threw his whole body at the ball, feet first, and he stomped the ball away as the goalies leg was about to make contact with it.
Then the goal keeper kicked Sung-Min's thigh instead.
Sung Min crawled up to his feet and ran off with the ball. He scored successfully this time by tapping the ball into the defenceless goal post.
[ Score: 4 - 4 ]
[ Bonus Points +10 ]
Sung-Min ran back to his goal post while another player appeared making them 5 in number.
Sung-Min stood in front of his goal post panting, watching the five of them pass the ball around while approaching him.
'Have to stop this, if the five of them is attacking together, then they are betting on this strike. I will wait and defend it... no, that's what they're expecting.!
Sung Min dashed off, he ran towards the five in top speed. 'I won't wait around this time, I will bring the fight to them. And I'd I win the ball, I win. And if I don't...'
The five started running towards Sung-Min, while still passing the ball around. Sung Min's pace kept increasing.
'I need to get faster, faster!!!'

Sung Min dashed past them. With the ball at his feet.
'Time slowed down for me...' Sung-Min scored.

The scenery dissolved and Sung-Min found himself back at his Sitting Room with the clothes he was wearing earlier. He threw himself into the couch, 'finally,' he gasped happily.
'Time to upgrade.'

Sung Min's phone rang, he picked it up and placed it on his ear.
"Hello?"
"It's Tae Hyun, I've been trying to reach you for a while."
"I was away, my bad."
"I wanted to know if you'll come to the game today."
"Game? You guys just played.... you lost 3 - 0"
"Umm... you're talking about last week's game..."
"Huh?!! It's been a week?!!" Sung-Min's jaw dropped in shock.
"Bro.. are you okay?"
'I was in there for a week?...'
"So, will you be coming to the game?"
"Oh, yes, it's time I show the world how good I've become!!!" Sung-Min smiled.
"Oh... Okay... see you." Line cuts.
'Sh*t, I said that out loud'
