"…!"
After looking through the new season system quests that his system prepared for him, Sam clenched his fists tightly, his eyes blazing with fire.
He didn’t look at the system quests since because of the kind of mental state that he was in after discovering his struggles with adaptation for playing for an elite club like FC Barcelona.
It was not just about the team, after all, the players made the team.
Sam’s teammates were so good that it required something special to shine in a team of so many superstars.
It was just like the problem that Kylian Mbappe faced in his fresh days playing for Real Madrid as he came to a Madrid club that already had a prominent young figure at the helm in Vinicius Junior.
In a star-studded attack with the likes of Vinicius, Rodrygo, Bellingham, and even the likes of wonderkids like Arda Guler and Endrick, Kylian Mbappe struggled at first to hit the meteoric heights that fans were used to seeing in his career.
But all he needed was time and even Kylian Mbappe found his mojo.
Sam refrained from viewing the season system quests since for a reason. In the build-up to this game, when he looked at it now, it became extra motivation for him to perform out there on the pitch. Continue your saga on novelbuddy
’It’s now or never!’ He thought, eyes gleaming with intense energy.
’Let’s go and create history!’
FWEEEE!
Sam walked into the pitch with his teammates amid loud cheers from the home supporters in the bright blue and red colors of FC Barcelona.
’I’m really here now’. Sam felt surreal.
He basked in the energy that was being created by the home supporters. The feeling of playing for FC Barcelona, in the Spotify Camp Nou, to him there was no feeling quite like it in the world.
Like expected, both teams approached this game with their strongest starting XI even as Sevilla came with hopes to get a result from the reigning champion’s home stadium.
Sevilla started in a 4-3-3 formation with Nyland starting as their goalkeeper.
Ahead of the goalkeeper was a quadruple of players consisting Sanches in right back, Bade, Gudelj, and Carmona. Ahead of the defense stood the midfield trio of Sow, Sambi Lokonga, and Saul.
As for Sevilla’s attack, it was anchored by the trio of Lukebakio in right wing, Fernandez, and Vargas.
FC Barcelona matched Sevilla’s energy with a strong lineup also, a similar one to their previous game, the only difference being that Gavi started ahead of Marc Casado, playing alongside Pedri in midfield.
As soon as the referee’s whistle sounded, an exciting end-to-end game started in the Spotify Camp Nou.
Again, this was a game that FC Barcelona dominated.
This Sevilla was a strong one as they posed some troubles to the home side but not enough to cause significant threat as Barcelona remained the superior side.
For 45 minutes, they tortured the visitors’ defense line, Raphina, Lamine Yamal, and Sam repeatedly tearing them apart with their sheer individual quality.
In this game, it was clear that Sam’s play was different.
He was more involved in the game.
In the build-up, in the goal threat, he was everywhere this first half.
His silky touch, his combinations with the attacking trio by his side and ahead of him, and the occasional long-range shot, he made the Sevilla defense quake today under the onslaught of his imperious aura.
It seemed like Zinedine Sam was back but in the end, a stalwart Sevilla defense held firm, holding Barca’s relentless attacks off for 45 minutes.
Incredibly, despite how much Barca dominated this game and they created chances, they were unable to break down Sevilla’s defense in the first half.
The first half came to an end with matters still level, 0-0.
But when second half eventually started, FC Barcelona quickly showed their intent as people who were on a mission.
6 minutes after the second half started, Barca scored.
