The last time he conceded a goal was two months ago, and that was because an opponent's shot deflected off his own defender.

And this goal conceded is entirely his own fault.

Just now, Tottenham Hotspur were awarded a direct free kick from approximately 33 meters out.

But at this moment, Howard saw that his teammates were still forming a human wall.

I don't know what got into me, but I walked to the net to get my water bottle and wanted to take a sip of water.

Seeing that Howard's attention was completely off the ball, the cunning Tottenham striker Defoe opted for a quick free kick.

The ball, spinning wildly, bypassed the wall of players that wasn't even properly lined up and slammed into the goal.

Meanwhile, Howard was tilting his head back and gulping water down his throat.

After Tottenham scored, The Hawthorns seemed to freeze in time, falling into silence.

But the on-site director was quite savvy; he directly cut to the shot of Howard drinking water and showed it on the big screen in the arena.

Looking at the water glass he was still holding, West Bromwich Albion fans, who had hailed Howard as their savior just 10 minutes earlier, began uttering countless beautiful, distinctly English phrases.

········

Meanwhile, Li Shiguang, who was watching the game at home, was quickly wiping the coffee table in front of him with a napkin. Just now, he saw Howard standing on the goal line with a confused and surprised expression, and he couldn't help but spit out the tea he had just drunk.

Brother, I knew you were a jerk, but I never expected you to be this bad.
