Chapter 314: Letter In Tha Mail

The following days were quiet for Jason as he did the same things he always did.

Getting up early to go to training and then training till he was half dead before heading home to continue training.

The only thing that had happened out of the norm for him was the international call-up letter that was sitting in his mail, stating that he was to join the Super Eagles in the international break for the next Afcon qualification match against Sierra Leone.

Despite not having signed a declaration of intent to join the national team, his name had already been added to the squad list, but it didn’t matter as he was going to be signing the Declaration of Intent when he reached Nigeria.

He had already confirmed his availability, so there was nothing else for him to do but to keep training as the days passed by, but unknown to him, news about him joining the Nigerian national team had been reported by some journalists and this was causing a wave in the social media world.

On Twitter, a famous sports blog posted a report on Jason’s situation with the national team.

*International Call-Up for Jason Less Than a Year After His Debut?*

It has been confirmed that Jason Bolu has received an International call-up invitation from Nigeria and reports state that he is receptive to the idea of playing for Nigeria and will be heading to Nigeria to join the Super Eagles in the coming international break.

No reports have surfaced about him receiving a call-up from the USA and Nigeria looks like the country that will get Jason’s signature on a Declaration of Intent first.

#18th minute...

Porto didn’t hesitate to start the match on a high note as Jason was found by Otavio on the right wing and kicking into the ground, he unleashed an incisive run down the flanks, cutting through Portimonense’s defense line with undisputed ease before unleashing a low cross into the penalty box that found Mylo.

Sliding into the path of the ball, Mylo tipped the ball with his foot and pushed it past the outstretched arms of the Portimonense goalkeeper before getting up and running down the sidelines to celebrate his goal.

{GOAL!}

{The manager gave him a chance and he’s taken that chance! What a goal from the young striker!}

{He’s put his team in the lead!}

#37th minute...

The end of the first half was approaching and the two teams were doing their best to be the next ones on the scoreboard.

Porto was trying to stamp their authority into the game with another game while Portimonense was trying to get a goal that would put them back into contention for victory in the match.

Porto seemed to have run out of luck at that moment as the Portimonense striker managed to snatch the ball from Mattheus Uribe and send in a pass to the left winger making a run.

The Portimonense left winger didn’t hesitate to spin the ball around Augustin Marchesin and bring the batch back to where it started.

{Goal!}

{They’ve dug in deep and found themselves an equalizer!}

{Porto aren’t through yet!}
