Isolde never cared about football. It wasn't that she disliked it-she just never had a reason to pay attention. That changed when her cousin Sofia, a lifelong AC Milan fan, dragged her to a match at San Siro one cold February night. She wasn't expecting much. But then she saw João Félix. It wasn't just that he was talented-though even her inexperienced eyes could tell he played differently from the others, smooth and calculated, as if the ball obeyed him. It was his presence.

There was something distant about him, like he was there but not entirely reachable.

It's about finding one's place in the world when the cheering stops and the lights dim, and realizing that sometimes, the most important goals are scored off the field.​
