The players were announced…
The squad of the players of the match that Roma will play with Cagliari was as follows.
Goalkeeper: Curci
Defender: Jose Angel, Juan, Cassetti, Burdisso
Midfielder: Daniele De Rossi, Miralem Pjanic, Fernando Gago
Forward: Bojan Krkic, Frencesco Totti, Pablo Osvaldo
The squad was like this and Roma would play with the 4-3-3 tactic.
Not only Helder but several of their players in the first week were substitutes.
But when it was announced on the substitutes, Helder saw that he was not in the squad.
All the footballers were even more surprised.
Wasn't this young man who had a great performance just last week?
But why had the manager made such a decision?
Roma would play against Cagliari at their home stadium, the Stadio Olimpico.

Match Day…
1 hour before the game ...
The squad was announced on TV.
Roma fans in the stand, who saw the football team, could not understand.
"Why is he playing Curci now when he played Helder last week?"
"Or was he injured?"
"If he was injured, the club would have announced it."
The fans in the stands were thinking about these…
Different voices were heard from each fan.
Some even found it logical for Curci to play. Because he was already a new transfer and he was experienced ...
Since Helder was not in the squad, he would watch the game in the stands.
Those who saw him up close thought that Helder looked very calm and confident.
He sat down with the fans and they started watching the game.
Normally, players would sit in a separate place, but Helder wanted to sit with the fans.
It was a habit from his previous life.
He would always sit with the fans and watch them closely in matches he could not play.
Because football was nothing without fans ...
He knew this very well.
Now, some fans who saw him were competing for a photo.
For young girls, he could be a big idol in the future.
Who knows, maybe there were posters of young girls on the walls of their rooms…
But he didn't want that.
He had sworn that the mistakes he had made in the past would never be repeated.
Helder was just waiting for the right person.
He would refuse anyone who sought money and fame and wanted to be with him.
It had even rejected a few people already.
Helder wanted to convince himself that he had said goodbye to his previous life.
He would do everything he could ...
And he would never trust any woman again until he believed he had found the right person.
Helder had changed in his new life ...
What was the event that affected him so much in his previous life?
