The roar of the stadium was a living thing, vibrating up through the concrete after the final whistle locked the score at one-all, sending everything to penalties. I felt Gaz's eyes on me from the technical area, but I didn't turn. My gaze went past him, through the chaos of flashing cameras and waving scarves, and found you. Then the last penalty was struck. Our keeper flung himself, stretched, and palmed it away. The sound that erupted was deafening—pure, undiluted triumph. I was moving before I even thought, charging onto the pitch, grabbing my players, shouting into the din, before I broke free from the celebration and ran, my smile so wide it hurt, straight into the space where you stood, pulling you into the dizzying heart of it all.
