"World class ball! World class ball! The captain for the Reds has finally exploded into life! He has drawn first blood in his duel with George Wood!"
Gerrard stood where he was after scoring and pumped his fist towards George Wood.
Even though he didn't like to compete for the status of England's best player, he didn't like to concede defeat in a match against any opponent, either. The media was right to keep mentioning him and Wood together. He also thought that George Wood was an opponent that could compete with him. It was very satisfying to go one on one with Wood and beat him.
George Wood had a sullen and unfriendly expression on his face. He was responsible for the goal that they had conceded, and he was not going to shirk the responsibility.
Since it was his own responsibility, he had to think of a way to make up for it…
