Chapter 610 Boundless Fighting Spirit

Everyone watching couldn't believe it! Zachary had finally scored Juventus' 3rd goal and closed the score difference between the two teams to only one goal during the 78th minute of the game.

It was an incredible feat that pushed his Champions League goal tally for the season to a whopping 18 goals! And that was not all - he had finally surpassed Cristiano Ronaldo's record of 17 goals during the 2013-14 season. He was at the top of Europe, at least in terms of goals!

But Zachary didn't bask in the glory as his team was still trailing Barcelona by one goal. He knew there was still work to do. He quickly retrieved the ball from the back of the net and placed it on the center spot, ready to continue the game.

"Wow, what a match we have here!" exclaimed Steve Bower, the commentator, as the Juventus fans erupted into cheers in the stadium. "Barcelona had a comfortable lead of three goals to nil before the end of the first half, but Juventus has come back in the second half with a vengeance and narrowed the score difference to just one goal!"

"Juventus has been playing some fantastic football, and it's now anyone's game with just over ten minutes left on the clock. Conor, who do you think will come out on top?" asked Bower eagerly.

"I couldn't tell you, Steve. This has been a rollercoaster of a match from start to finish," replied Conor McNamara, the other commentator. "I had my money on Barcelona at the start of the game, but Juventus has really surprised us with their fighting spirit, especially in the second half."

It was Zachary, who had gone into motion after escaping his marker. He leaped off the ground as if gravity had no hold on him and angled his head to graze the incoming cross from the corner spot. His balance, coordination, and aerial finishing juju worked wonders as he timed his header to perfection and skillfully guided the ball towards the goal.

The whole series of events happened within an instant, and before the Barcelona keeper and defenders could react, the ball was already nestling into the back of the net.

GOAL!

86th minute! Juventus 4: Barcelona 4

Juventus had finally equalized, and the stadium erupted into thunderous cheers. The Juventus fans, who had been quiet for most of the game, were now on fire, jubilating their team's fourth and equalizing goal. They waved their flags and scarves, chanted their team's name, and hugged each other as if they had just won the lottery.

Zachary raced towards the stands, raising his fist to celebrate with all those excited fans. They responded with more pronounced cheers and continued jumping around as if they had achieved some sort of joyful salvation.

Soon enough, the other Juventus players and substitutes arrived to join the celebration. They hugged Zachary, patted him on the back, and shouted words of encouragement to each other. They even joked about how he had set a new unbreakable record for the most goals scored by a single player in a Champions League season.

But Giorgio Chiellini, the assistant captain, was quick to halt the celebrations. "Guys, we have only scored an equalizer," he reminded them. "Let's head back and fight for the Champions League trophy as a team. Let's score another goal and become the champions of Europe. We can do this! We can win the Champions League!"

The rest of the Juventus players made their agreements known with their loud yells. They bumped fists together and returned to the pitch with gazes brimming with boundless fighting spirit.

They were ready to battle Barcelona and score a goal during the remaining few minutes. They hoped to overwhelm their opponents and return to Turin with the most noble of European football titles.
