With that, the match continues. The tables have turned, and Bradford comes out like a completely different team.
[MINUTE 45–60]Bradford City goes wild. Their game no longer relies solely on individual brilliance but begins to take shape with deadly rhythm and patterns.
Eden Mirza, the 15-year-old young midfielder, begins to show his true quality.He moves as if he already knows where Lucien is going to pass even before Lucien gnces in that direction.
[Commentator 1]:“Look at the synergy between Eden and Lucien... it’s like they’ve pyed together for years!”
Eden repeatedly sends deadly through balls toward Duvant or Lucien as they slice through York’s defensive line.Sometimes he exchanges one-twos with Oillie, sometimes short passes with Anderson on the left fnk.The midfield, which had seemed lost earlier, is now alive again—thanks to Eden.
But not everything is perfect.Harry Shalked—though full of spirit—often struggles to control the ball and loses possession in crucial areas. But one thing is undeniable: his fighting spirit.He never stops running, chasing down anyone with the ball.
And Reinhart notices one key detail:Harry’s explosive speed.Too explosive for a central midfielder.He’s often overpping with Anderson on the right, making the py chaotic… but also unpredictable.
[MINUTE 60]A quick attack from Eden, Duvant, and Lucien.In a deadly triangle move, the ball nds at Eden’s feet inside the penalty box. But two York center-backs close him down immediately.Just as everyone expects Eden to pass it back to reset the py—Eden calmly shows his skill.With streetwise reflexes, he traps the ball, bounces it off the ground with the heel of his right foot—The ball rises slightly—just enough—Then, with a powerful right-footed volley, he fires the ball between the narrow gap of the two York defenders.It flies sharply into the top left corner of the goal.
[Commentator 2]:“WHAT WAS THAT!?! A VOLLEY BETWEEN TWO DEFENDERS—THE BALL WHISTLES INTO THE TOP CORNER!!!”
The stadium goes silent. Even Bradford fans are stunned for a second… before erupting.Eden Mirza. 15 years old. An unbelievable goal.
Eden sprints toward the bench and hugs Reinhart.Only Eden dares to treat Reinhart like that. He sees Reinhart as family, especially after they started living under the same roof. This is also why he’s close with Lucien and Duvant.
“Ha! Boss, did you see that? I made a goal!” Eden beams with joy.Reinhart calmly returns the hug, pats Eden’s head, and smiles slightly.This kid, who until recently wasn’t even training properly—has now made it into the squad in just one month.
Unexpectedly, Lucien and Duvant join him and congratute Eden.
[MINUTE 75 ]Lucien and Duvant are subbed off.Coming on: Mason Sandwood (full-back) and Alexander Kamara (a calm and visionary midfielder).
Reinhart immediately changes formation: 5-2-2-1.Lukas moves to center-back, Mason takes left-back, and Harry Shalked shifts up to right winger in pce of Duvant.
And here comes the biggest surprise:Harry Shalked suddenly... becomes dangerous.Unlike Duvant who runs only when the chance is clear—Harry runs all the time. Nonstop.Like a machine, breaking down York’s focus.His wild runs create holes in York City’s defense.
[MINUTE 77]After several attempts, Eden once again takes the role of the architect.He spots a tiny gap on the right, then exploits it with a sharp through ball…Harry bursts through with his speed, beats the York defender, and goes one-on-one with the keeper.Calmly, he fakes a shot, then pces it into the right side of the goal.The ball slides in effortlessly.
[Commentator 1]:“HE SCORES! HARRY SHALKED! WITH ENDLESS STAMINA AND DETERMINATION!!”
Reinhart stands on the sideline. His expression remains cold.But when his eyes meet Harry’s bursting with euphoria as he runs toward the touchline
[MINUTE 82]Anderson, who’s been constantly cutting in from the left, sends a low through ball into the penalty area.But it deflects off a York defender’s footAnd bounces into the goal!
[Commentator 2]:“This can’t even be called a match anymore. This is total demolition. York has been dismantled by a bunch of schoolkids!”
The remaining minutes pass uneventfully…
[Final whistle blows!][The stadium’s giant screen lights up in bold, majestic letters:]Bradford City 6 : 0 York City
[Commentator 1]:“And… that’s the end of this incredible match! Bradford City finishes with a crushing 6–0 victory over York! A completely dominant performance from start to finish!”
[Commentator 2]:“What we just witnessed wasn’t just a win it was a statement. Bradford, with their young pyers, with their revolutionary, passionate style… have humiliated York in front of thousands of eyes.”
[The stadium roars Bradford supporters erupt, some standing and waving fgs and scarves.York supporters remain silent, some simply bowing their heads in disbelief.]
[The camera pans to Eden Mirza walking toward Lucien and Duvant and hugging them.Oillie is bent over, hands on knees—exhausted but smiling.Harry Shalked jumps with joy and points toward the stands as if to say, ‘This is for you!’Meanwhile, off-camera, Matias clenches his fist.]
[Commentator 1]:“Look at them! This isn’t just about skill… it’s about heart. About spirit. About the new Bradford philosophy!”
[The camera cuts to the York coach massaging his temples, while Reinhart stands tall on the sideline, hands behind his back, nodding slowly at his pyers as they begin hugging each other at midfield.]
[Commentator 1]:“Welcome to the new era of Bradford. And to every team in League Two… get ready.”
