The roar of the crowd was deafening, a sea of red and white scarves waving high under the Meadow Park lights. Alessia Russo stood on the edge of the penalty box, her heart pounding in rhythm with the chants echoing through the stands. Arsenal had been relentless all evening, but the score remained locked at 1-1. Time was slipping away.
This was why she came here. To make moments like these matter.
The ball came to her feet like it was meant to, a precise pass from Caitlin Foord slicing through Chelsea's defense. Russo didn't hesitate. With a deft touch, she spun past her marker, her vision narrowing to the goal. The keeper, Ann-Katrin Berger, rushed forward, but Alessia's instincts kicked in. She chipped the ball delicately over Berger's outstretched arms.
Time seemed to slow as the ball hung in the air, floating towards the net. Then, it dipped perfectly into the bottom corner.
The stadium erupted.
Russo stood there, arms raised, a grin breaking across her face. This was her Arsenal. This was her moment.
