“This guy kicked the bucket! Team Doctor, quick!”
“Matthew, wake up quickly!”
...
A cacophony of chirping sounds filled his ears as Matthew struggled to open his eyes.
Huh?
Why were all the faces in front of him foreigners?
And he himself was lying on a patch of grass.
What was going on?
Didn't I just get hit by a car?
Could it be that I hit my head and am hallucinating?
Even stranger, he, Matthew, could understand the foreign languages spoken by these foreigners around him!
I've studied English, but I'm sure this isn't English, and what's more terrifying is that I can actually understand it?
“Matthew, look into my eyes!”
The Team Doctor, a beautiful blonde woman, blinked her captivating Persian cat-like eyes, and her slender hands cradled Matthew's head, checking his condition with concern.
“So beautiful—”
Matthew looked at the beautiful woman in front of him and cried out.
He had never been in contact with such a beautiful girl before; with his face in the female Team Doctor's hands, he felt like a small boat drifting in a warm harbor…
The female Team Doctor's face flushed slightly, and with a sweep of her hand, she placed Matthew back on the grass—
“Looks like there’s no problem.” The female Team Doctor stood up, tall and slender in her athletic wear, truly heroic!
“I knew it; he just fell down unconscious after a light tackle. This is too embarrassing for our National Team.”
Beside them, a tall, handsome guy said.
“What kind of person is this! I really did faint just now—” Matthew heard this and was very angry, turning his head to retort to this impolite guy.
Oh?
Matthew was stunned!
Holy cow!
A chiseled face!
Hair with a rich texture after waxing!
Wearing the number seven jersey!
This—
Isn't this my idol, Cristiano Ronaldo?
Matthew rubbed his eyes, thinking he was seeing things!
Indeed, the serious-looking guy in front of him was Cristiano Ronaldo!
“You are Cristiano Ronaldo?” Matthew looked at the man in front of him; this was his idol!
“Matthew, shouldn’t you call him Brother Luo?”
A young man beside him clearly felt his words were a bit offensive.
“Young man, if you can’t handle such a tackle, that’s why you can’t be a starter.”
Cristiano Ronaldo shook his head helplessly and walked away.
Being so close to Cristiano Ronaldo, Matthew still wanted to ask for his autograph, but he didn't expect Cristiano Ronaldo to walk away angrily.
Matthew looked around, everything seemed like a dream.
Is this a dream? Everything in front of him was so unfamiliar!
Or, did the car accident just now take my life? Am I dead now?
...
At this moment, Matthew was like a piece of wood, lying on this massive football field. His mind suddenly went blank…
“Get up quickly! Stop playing dead! There are still ten minutes of team training, and tomorrow, we have a match against the South Korea Team!”
Beside him, a young man tried to help him up.
“Did I get reincarnated?”
Matthew suddenly thought of terms like reincarnation or transmigration and immediately became excited.
This is not a dream!
This is real.
A jolt of electricity flashed through Matthew's body, he trembled, and some memories appeared in his mind.
Indeed, he was no longer the delivery boy who used to run around the streets; he was now a member of the Portugal National Team.
Coincidentally, his name was also Matthew.
He was now Cristiano Ronaldo's teammate!
Although, he was a substitute, and he was only added to the National Team's final roster at the last minute.
And at this moment, he was in Qatar, the host country of the World Cup. They were currently conducting team training on the field, preparing for the last group stage match the next day.
“I don’t seem to be ready yet.”
Matthew scratched his head; it seemed he still needed more time to adapt to his current state.
“Ding!”
“God-level Ball King System, starting to bind…”
A clear voice sounded in his mind, and this voice was extremely pleasant, much like the sound of: “Alipay received one hundred thousand yuan!”
