A City Awaits
London was electric.
The streets shimmered with banners. The trains rumbled with chants. Wembley's iconic arch glowed above the skyline like a beacon of destiny.
Tobi Oliveira stared out from the team bus, heart hammering. This wasn't just a final.
It was the final.
Arsenal vs Real Madrid. Legacy versus Legacy.
Emilia had texted that morning:
"All of Portugal is watching. But only one heart matters to me."
He smiled. Then turned to Ødegaard seated beside him.
"You ready?"
The captain grinned. "Let's make history."

Tunnel Tension
The roar from above vibrated through the concrete walls. Tobi adjusted his shin pads. Cleats tight. Head clear.
He glanced across the tunnel.
There stood Bellingham. Calm. Commanding.
