They had eighty minutes on the clock now so the match was almost over but that was sothing for Ronino FC to worry about because they were currently four goals down.
The fans thought they had seen it all when they scored that third goal, but the Uniques ended up grabbing a fourth goal even after the substitutions.
Five minutes after that third goal from Gregory, Norman finally decided to rest so players because they already had the match in the bag.
The first person to get taken off was Mateo and Norman had to bring in Frankie to replace him because they didn't have any other proper left winger in the squad but Frankie had the rare attribute of being able to bring out a good performance no matter the position he is in so it was okay.
Gregory also had to be replaced by Fred because Norman had no intentions of allowing the youngster to play a full ninety minutes.
rino had to leave the stage for Carlos and then finally, Minino had to be replaced by Martinez.
Norman wasn't really expecting anything more from his team after those substitutions, he just needed them to see the ga to its end but I guess he had no idea that they still wanted goals.
All it took was a nice link-up between Martinez and Frankie to get the ball into the back of the net once more.
The defensive midfielder sent the ball flying into the box toward the left from thirty yards out, and after bringing it down with his foot, Frankie quickly got around the defender in his way with a quick roulette spin before he sent the ball straight into the goalpost from the bottom right corner.
The goalkeeper had no chance of stopping that because it was stretched just too far away from him.
"Yeah, that was a beautiful goal from Frankie, and just two minutes after coming on to replace Mateo," Jim comnted.
"He's a great asset for Unique FC, that one player you can put into any position and expect a good if not great performance." Steve articulated.
The match had just entered the ninetieth minute now and Ronino FC were still looking lackluster.
Unique FC were the ones with the ball now and they were just casually moving it around with no real intent to attack.
"Looks like they've finally decided to stall ti even though it's pointless, there's no way Ronino FC will be able to catch up to them now."
Yeah, it was pointless but not if they wanted a clean sheet which they always want anyway.
They kept moving the ball around and because Ronino FC players weren't aggressive enough with the way they were chasing the ball, they ended up holding on to it until the four minutes of added ti got exhausted and the referee blew his whistle thrice to finally bring the match to an end.
"There's the whistle, it is all over!"
At this point, Ronino FC fans had gone almost quiet all that could be heard in the stadium was the voice of Unique FC fans chanting the na of their club.
"Ronino FC looked pretty underwhelming the whole of this match and Unique FC made no mistake in taking advantage of that." Steve articulated. "That's another victory for them, another clean sheet, their twenty-fourth clean sheet of the season, Dave is surely going to get that golden glove, Perez is the one right behind him with just eleven clean sheets."
"Yeah, they have taken everyone by surprise this season after how much they struggled last season but Supre United are not making the title race easy for them, they're pushing themselves just as much as them."
Gregory was announced as the man of the match at the end of the ga which was really well deserved.
The young striker was just in the right places during the ga.
This was his first Man of the Match award and he had a very bright smile on his face as he spoke to the reporter in front of him.
[ Quest failed ]
Dave was already making his way down the tunnel alongside Mateo when that ssage suddenly popped up in front of him.
'Why didn't this pop up right after the ga? I had already forgotten about it.'
'A glitch?'
'Yeah.'
'So, the system's faulty?'
'Hmm.'
'You know I'm a bit scared that you're so willing to let in on a secret.'
