The score stood at 3-1 to Aston Villa, sixty minutes into the thrilling clash against Tottenham.

Leon Fischer, felt the rhythm of the game flow through him. His 'sight' was a clear, continuous stream of predictions, anticipating every move, every pass, every tackle.

Alex Turner (Current: 78), the debutant, was growing in confidence with every touch, his raw talent blossoming under the bright lights of Villa Park.

Coach Emery, despite the comfortable lead, remained animated on the sidelines, urging his team to maintain focus.

Tottenham, stung by being three goals down, pressed harder, their 'Current' ratings pulsing with frustration. Son Heung-min (Current: 88) launched a furious attack, his movements a blur of speed. Leon used his 'sight' to anticipate Son's quick changes of direction, blocking a dangerous cross, sending it out for a throw-in.

Around the 70th minute, Tottenham found a lifeline.

A quick one-two outside the box, and Brennan Johnson (Potential: 86, Current: 83) unleashed a powerful shot that beat Emiliano Martínez (Current: 85).

GOOOAL! ASTON VILLA 3 - Tottenham 2!

The roar from Villa Park was replaced by a nervous murmur. The tension ratcheted up. Two goals in it again. Leon felt the shift in momentum.

He looked at Alex, who was still battling hard in midfield, his 'Current: 78' glowing with exhaustion but also determination.

"Heads up! Stay focused!" Leon yelled, his voice cutting through the rising din. He knew Tottenham would throw everything at them.

The final twenty minutes were a whirlwind. Tottenham pushed, Villa defended fiercely, launched counter-attacks. Leon was everywhere, breaking up play, making crucial interceptions, his 'sight' predicting every move from James Maddison (Current: 86), every surging run from Son (Current: 88).

Then, in the 80th minute, came a moment of pure magic, courtesy of the debutant, Alex Turner.

Alex received the ball deep in Aston Villa's half. Leon's 'sight' flared, showing a complex series of 'feints' and 'accelerations' above Alex, unlike anything he'd seen from him before.

Alex, with incredible composure for a debutant, executed a breathtaking dribble, weaving through two Tottenham midfielders, leaving them sprawling. His 'Current' rating jumped, 79, 80, as he flowed past defenders with effortless grace.

"Oh, sensational dribbling from Alex Turner! He just glides past two! Unbelievable skill for a debutant!"

Alex surged into Tottenham's half, his 'Current: 80' now radiating pure confidence. He then hit a precise, curling through ball that split Tottenham's defense wide open. Leon's 'sight' showed the 'arc' of the pass, perfectly into the path of Ollie Watkins (Current: 86), who had made a perfectly timed run.

Watkins was clean through on goal, one-on-one with Vicario (Current: 85). Leon watched, breathless.

He saw the 'leg-and-ball' projection from Watkins, a powerful shot aiming for the bottom corner. But then, Leon also saw a faint 'body lean' from Vicario, anticipating the shot.

Leon didn't hesitate. "OLLIE! FAR POST! FAR POST!" he screamed, his voice raw.

Watkins, hearing the urgent shout, ignored his initial instinct. He opened his body, and instead of powering it, he gently placed the ball with the inside of his foot, curling it precisely into the far corner, just beyond Vicario's desperate dive.

SWISH! The net rippled!

GOOOAL! ASTON VILLA 4 - Tottenham 2!

Villa Park erupted into an absolute frenzy! Four-two! Leon ran straight to Alex, pulling him into a massive hug. "ALEX! What a pass! What a run! You were incredible!"

Alex (Current: 81) was beaming, a mix of pure joy and utter disbelief on his face.

Ollie Watkins (Current: 86) then did something incredible. In a moment of pure, unbridled emotion, he pulled off his jersey, revealing a triumphant roar.

The crowd went wild, but the referee, without hesitation, showed him a straight orange card – a yellow, but a special one unique to the Premier League which means it is his second yellow resulting in a red card!

"OLLIE!" Leon yelled, but it was too late. Watkins, knowing he'd be suspended, just shrugged, a wide, unrepentant grin on his face.

"Worth it, Leo! Worth it!" He walked off the pitch to a thunderous ovation, leaving Villa with ten men for the final ten minutes.

The final ten minutes were pure chaos. Tottenham, with a man advantage, launched wave after wave of attack. Leon, now utterly exhausted, relied solely on his 'sight' to break up play. Alex (Current: 81) battled tirelessly beside him, showing incredible maturity for a debutant.

In the 90th minute, Tottenham scored again. A scramble in the box, and a deflected shot found its way in.

GOOOAL! ASTON VILLA 4 - Tottenham 3!

The tension was unbearable. But the final whistle blew seconds later, a sweet, relieving sound that drowned out the collective groan from the Tottenham fans. Villa had won! A 4-3 thriller! Leon collapsed onto the pitch, breathless, but a triumphant grin on his face. They had done it!

The next few days, the football world couldn't stop talking about the 4-3 epic. But it wasn't just about the scoreline; it was about the young talents on display.

On BouTube, a video titled "Byon's RIDICULOUS Dribbling vs. Reading (FA Cup Solo Goal!)" had gone viral, racking up millions of views.

Leon watched it again. Byon (Current: 85) was a sensation. His 'Current' had jumped another point after that incredible FA Cup goal. His comments section was filled with fans raving about his flair, his speed, his "cheat code dribbling."

The pundits on TV were equally excited. "We're witnessing a golden generation emerging! Leon Fischer at Aston Villa, with his unbelievable vision and tactical understanding, now a 'Current' of 92! And Byon at Manchester City, a true electrifying winger, with his 'Current' soaring to 85!"

Another segment focused on Alex Turner. "And the hidden gem, Alex Turner! What a debut! That assist for Watkins's second goal, the composure, the raw power! He's valued at an astonishing £21 million already! Just goes to show you, sometimes the best talent isn't in the academies; it's waiting to be discovered!"

Leon felt immense pride. Alex (Current: 81) was already a £21 million player!

Across the world, managers were taking notice.

In Madrid, Carlo Ancelotti watched the highlights with Emre Demir (Potential: 93, Current: 86). "That Fischer boy at Villa... he is truly unique. And this Turner... another raw talent with great potential. The Premier League is a fascinating laboratory for young players now."

In Munich, Thomas Tuchel analyzed the game intently. "These English teenagers... their development is explosive. Fischer's tactical awareness, Byon's dribbling, Demir's finishing... the next era of football is here."

Leon scrolled through the news, a satisfied smile on his face. His '84 Current' and the win against Tottenham cemented his status. Alex was flourishing, Byon was shining.

The playful rivalry with Byon over market values was heating up. He imagined Byon's reaction to Alex's new £21 million valuation. It was going to be hilarious.

The Premier League table was still a battleground, but Villa had moved up a spot:

Arsenal - 49 points

Manchester City - 47 points

Liverpool - 45 points

Tottenham - 42 points

Manchester United - 40 points

Chelsea - 38 points

Aston Villa - 36 points

Brighton - 35 points

Fulham - 34 points

Newcastle United - 30 points

Eighth place. Not bad. Just two points off Brighton for a European spot.

The season was truly heating up.

Leon felt the thrill of it all. His second life was a whirlwind of incredible experiences, unexpected turns, and a constant, exhilarating climb towards the absolute pinnacle of the sport.
