Chapter 492: Him or The Team III

“Ah, this...” Jason paused for a second to construct an answer in his head as the question pit him in a complicated position.

“Oporto might be my home team, but currently I’m in the Uventus colors and I’ll do my best to help my team on the pitch,” he finally said, his tone ambiguous and not allowing people to have a clear meaning of his words.

“Oh wow, I guess we can expect an interesting game then,” Jamie nodded in a convinced manner.

“I guess so, it’s a Champions League game after all,” Jason replied.

“Right you are. Moving on then, would you say playing against your former teammates will be harder than usual, or will it be easier?” Kate moved on to the next question.

“Well, I can not deny that I’m more familiar with them, which is the same for them as they are also familiar with how I play and some of my habits, but I think, that should counter-affect each other so I’m expecting it to be like any other game,”

“Maybe a bit more difficult because I’ll have to watch them a bit more,” Jason answered with a thoughtful expression.

“Knowing your teammates is a good thing and I guess that will help,” Henry also nodded in response to Jason’s words.

“Well, I guess that’s correct,” Jamie replied as well.

“I’m sure those guys will be especially wary of you as they wouldn’t want to end up on youtube like some of their opponents in the past,” Micah laughed and everyone joined him, understanding what he meant.

“Surely, even Jason wouldn’t be that cruel,” Kate spoke, still covering her mouth with mirth.

“Hey, I never actually meant to turn people to YouTube reel material, I just do my thing and sometimes people fall. Mistakes happen in football all the time y’know,” Jason scratched his hand, at a loss on how to prove his innocence.

“Yeah, right,” Micah said and burst out in louder laughter.

“No for real,” Jason tried to convince them.

“Uh, that one,” she turned to look for a second and pointed at a camera with a red light on.

“Do you guys want to know what I think?” Jason asked the viewers, staring straight at the camera.

“Well, I’m not telling,” he said and in one swift motion, dropped the mic and bolted to the field to join his teammates to warm-up, leaving everyone stunned and looking at his slowly shrinking back.

“I guess, we’ll find out whichever team is superior after ninety minutes,” Kate said with a smile, taking the reins of the show once again and continuing the live show, with the other hosts also joining in.

On the field, Jason went directly to join the Uventus players and he quickly joined them in their warm-up exercises, but less than ten minutes later, they were heading back to the tunnel as the match would soon begin.

After some last minute arrangements, the players went to the waiting area in the tunnel to wait for their cue to step out to the field.

As he reached the tunnel, Jason saw some of his former teammates already standing there and waiting.

“What’s up man,” Jason greeted Fabio Viera as he took a spot beside him.

Greetings were quickly exchanged between the two of them and Jason also exchanged greetings with other members of the Oporto team.

However his friendliness with his home-team disappeared as soon as he noticed Mylo walking up to the line as well.

It was clear that the guy would be in the starting line-up for the match.

‘That’s good. I’ll start crushing him from today,’

Jason couldn’t wipe the smirk that appeared on his face as this thought popped up in his head.

Cameras were constantly transmitting the players every movement in the tunnel to the people watching the game on a screen, but the players soon began heading out to the stadium where they could be seen by everyone watching the game live.
