Chapter 320 – Legend, Beyond (6)
320
As soon as the game started, Newcastle’s attack, which went fast, was made along the touchline.
Following just four passes, when wide-fielder James Foul’s cross was missed, digging deep into Chelsea’s flank, people expected Newcastle to be fierce today.
And when Hong Min-joon, who appeared out of nowhere from a cross that floated up from a miss, scored the opening goal in the 2nd minute of the first half by volleying it, it was predicted that it would be a one-sided final that ended with Chelsea’s battering.
However, the performance that followed overturned everyone’s expectations.
Just as Chelsea, the team that blocks Hong Min-Jun most effectively, strikes back the experts who predicted what strategy to block Hong Min-Jun this time, Lorenzo Federico poured all his strength into the attack, besides the basic check against Hong Min-Jun.
Chelsea showed off their tremendous firepower and scored 3 goals in an instant, making the score 3:1.
Social media flared up, and public opinion changed again.
“Unbelievable!! What a performance! Terrible performance, Chelsea!!”
“Lorenzo Federico’s magic is unleashed in the finals! Unexpectedly, Chelsea went all-in and scored 3-1 in the 19th minute of the first half!”
“Ah~ Newcastle players are panicking. Coach Boatman is breaking out in a cold sweat.”
It was around the time when everyone was reminded of the incident when “No way” Changed to “Perhaps” In everyone’s head at Chelsea’s propaganda, which was regarded as an underdog, and Newcastle’s players and coaches who couldn’t keep their spirits in a hurry.
“The match resumes with Newcastle’s starting lineup. Sakum Shaki to Hong Min-joon. Hong Min-jun, give it to Rock Woody, huh? Hong Min-jun, who is digging into the Chelsea camp in an instant! Locke Woody, put the ball right there!”
The game, which seemed to start off as normal, sped up rapidly due to Hong Min-jun, who dug into the Chelsea camp at the same time as the pass, and Locke Woody, who sent a roving pass accordingly.
“Oh, this is dangerous! Chelsea players surrounded Hong Min-jun in an instant! Oh, this can’t work! It’s impossible Hong Min-joon!!”
The Chelsea players surrounded Hong Min-jun as they were without being embarrassed by the commentator’s pitiful cry.
The three players surrounding me seemed to have no answer, even if it was Hong Min-jun.
Hong Min-jun boasts an overwhelming success rate compared to other players, but in fact, the success rate of Hong Min-jun’s adventurous play is around 70%.
Even that was an ‘overwhelming’ success rate compared to other players, but this meant that even Hong Min-jun could not succeed in all risky plays.
A ball falling towards the ground and three players surrounding Hong Min-jun.
Even in a situation where even Hong Min-joon seems to have no answer,
“Uh? Minjun Hong Jump!”
“All the Chelsea players float up— uh, uh uh? What… Oh, an overhead kick!!”
After jumping high, Hong Min-joon’s body flipped over in an instant and kicked the ball right in the air.
When everyone was dumbfounded by the high RBI that even a player with a higher RBI than Hong Min-Jun could not stop.
Charrrr—
The ball was spinning in the net as it was.
Newcastle and Hong Min-jun’s second goal and fifth goal in the match.
And it was a wonderful goal to announce the start of the slugfest in the final.
“Hong Min-jun, run after Hong Min-jun!! Inward— No, Hong Min-jun bends toward the touch line! Cross as it is!! Oh, unfortunately, the goal line is out. A good attack from Newcastle.”
“Rock Woody’s pass—Chelsea breaking it! Counterattack, switch to counterattack! Launch the ball straight to the perimeter— and shoot! Ah, Yomund! Fantastic save from goalkeeper Joomund!”
“Baum Johann! Just shoot!! It’s a long shot. It was a mid-range shot that I decided to hit in an open chance.”
Chelsea, who focused on the extreme attack, balanced the offense and defense, but Chelsea’s onslaught tore the defense, and Hong Min-jun’s carry made Newcastle’s one-step retreat repeated.
When the game is over—
“The Champions League final of the 37/38 season, where an unprecedented slugfest took place, is finally coming to an end!!”
“It was a fantastic game, but there is no such thing as a draw! I applaud Chelsea for a great performance today.”
Score 6:5.
It was Newcastle’s victory.

『’Record Breaker’ Hong Min-joon’s records!』
“Korea’s superstar, soccer emperor Min-jun Hong, is famous for breaking records.
Let’s take a look at the records broken by Hong Min-jun, who is on a new record streak by breaking numerous records since his debut, this time in the Champions League.
〈Breaks the Champions League record for most goals scored in a single season — Hong Min-jun, 27 goals in the 37/38 season〉
The previous Champions League record for most goals in a single season was held by Portuguese national hero Cristiano Ronaldo.
1st place was 17 goals recorded in the 13/14 season.
As a side note, the second place was also Ronaldo, who scored 16 goals in the 15/16 season, and was also tied for third place with 15 goals along with Lewandowski and Benzema.
However, this season, Hong Min-jun broke the record by scoring 27 goals, a whopping 10 goals, and opened an ‘unbelievable’ epoch.
〈Champions League record for most goals in a row – 37/38 season Minjun Hong 13 goals in a row〉
This, too, is Ronaldo, who had a record of scoring in 11 consecutive matches.
However, this was also broken by Hong Min-jun, who broke the record with 12 consecutive goals in the last semi-final match against AT Madrid, and established a new record with 13 consecutive goals in the final.
〈Champions League record for most hat-tricks in a single season – Hong Min-jun 5 times in 37/38 season〉
Cristiano Ronaldo also holds the record for most hat-tricks in a single season in the Champions League. Ronaldo’s previous 3 innings were renewed by Hong Min-jun with 5 innings.
〈Champions League career record for most hat-tricks – Hong Min-jun 10 times〉
Coincidentally, the existing record holders are ‘eternal rivals’ Messi and Ronaldo. The two players had the previous record of 8 times, but Hong Min-jun broke the new record with 10 times.
〈Champions League record for most goals in a single match – Hong Min-jun 9 goals in 35/36 season〉
Lionel Messi (11/12 season round of 16 match against Leverkusen) and Luis Adriano (14/15 season group stage match against Bate)’s previous 5 goals were broken by 5 goals in the first half and 4 goals in the second half against Barcelona in the first leg of the quarterfinals in the 35/36 season Hong Min-jun, who scored a goal, broke the record with 9 goals.
〈Champions League record for most dribble breakthroughs in a single game – Minjun Hong 19 times in 37/38 season〉
He broke his own record, the record he had broken in the previous match.
Hong Min-jun broke the previous record of 16 held by Lionel Messi and Neymar Junior in the semi-final ATM game, and again set a new record in the final against Chelsea, breaking his own record in one game.
〈Champions League Final Hat-trick – Pieniro Prati, Ferenc Puskas, Alfredo Di Stefano, Minjun Hong〉
Hong Min-jun became the fourth player behind the legendary players to score a hat-trick in a Champions League final, tying Ferenc Puskas’ record for most goals scored in a single match with four goals.”
