Zachary watched the rest of the game from the bench. He looked on with bated breath as his new teammates tried their best to create chances and score an equalizing goal against AC Milan. But it was as if the goddess of luck was against Juventus that evening. The players failed to find the back of the net and eventually lost the game to AC Milan after five minutes of added time.
After the referee blew the final whistle, Zachary couldn't help but bury his head in his hands. The guilt he was feeling multiplied a hundredfold as he was aware that he was the sole cause of his team's loss. His mind turned blank, and he sat there listlessly while replaying scenes from the just-concluded game within his mind. His poor display on the pitch had affected him that greatly.
