"Touchdown! Touchdown! It's a touchdown!"

Lu Zhengze clenched his fists and shouted wildly, completely lost in the moment. The cries coming from the depths of his soul seemed to have lost all meaning, just repeating themselves over and over again. His whole body was trembling slightly, and his voice was completely hoarse, but he held nothing back.

He turned his head and saw a tearful Jiang Youning, who had started to cry uncontrollably. The hand covering her mouth was trembling from her excitement. The hot tears could not be stopped, they just kept falling, and her eyes were filled with joyful happiness, reflecting a brilliant light. Then, in the reflection of those tears, Lu Zhengze saw his own tear-streaked and disheveled face. He couldn't say a word, just stood there in a daze.

In this moment, no words could clearly describe the flood of emotions in his heart. He just turned his head and looked deeply, deeply at that tiny number 14 on the field. He held up his right hand and raised one finger, standing tall and proud, declaring that this indomitable fight was still going on until the very last moment.

Unexpectedly, tears started to fall again.

"Ahhh! Ahhh! Ahhh!"

A massive roar of screams and shouts surged across the stadium. Everyone was crazy, out of control, and lost in the moment. They were just shouting. As far as the eye could see, everyone was roaring uncontrollably. They had been tense for so long, suppressed for so long, and waiting for so long. At this moment, they finally let it all out.

And it wasn't just Candlestick Park.

At "Joe's Pub," everyone began to passionately pound on the tables. The loud banging and wailing filled the air. Anthony DiNozzo even held up his right hand and shouted, "The beer tonight is on me! Everyone drink as much as you want! Celebrate! Tonight is a celebration!"

As he was shouting, Anthony's eyes welled up with tears. He awkwardly turned around and used a rag in his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, but he couldn't suppress his excitement.

Finally! They had finally waited for this! For a full eight years, after Steve Young retired, the 49ers fell into a slump, wandering in the darkness. But now, they had finally seen the dawn and hope for the team again. They had also finally felt the joy and madness of victory again. The past eight years had been so long, it felt like eight centuries had passed.

Anthony held up his right hand and started to shout, "Bambi!"

When the first shout rang out, the entire bar started to echo it. It rushed out of the bar's windows and doors, grew wings, and flew out into the streets of San Francisco. It surged throughout the entire Bay Area, a thunderous roar that shook the sky.

Standing in Candlestick Park, the shouts that broke through the clouds were surging and swirling violently. His eyes were filled with red, his ears were filled with red, and his heart was filled with red. The whole world was dyed a brilliant and vibrant red. He could almost hear the rhythm of a beating pulse.

"Bambi! Bambi! Bambi!"

In the middle of the stadium that could hold 70,000 people, the number 14 looked so small, but his frail shoulders carried the weight of the whole world. He carried the history and glory of this team and brought it back to the forefront of competition. In an instant, that figure became a giant, seemingly able to support the entire world.

After the football was thrown, Lu Ke lifted his chin and watched the flight path of the ball. After he was sure that Logan had made the catch, he clenched his right fist and waved it constantly. The emotions that had been suppressed to the limit were finally completely released. "Ah!"

"Ahhhhhhh!"

He just kept roaring and shouting, venting and erupting, releasing everything. He could almost hear every cell bursting, but the excitement and passion in his heart were still pouring out.

At the peak of his explosion, Lu Ke held up his right hand and raised his index finger, making a "1" sign. He stood there quietly, like a king, accepting the adoration of the entire crowd. This was his moment. This was his victory! He was enjoying it!

The frenzied roars shook all of Candlestick Park, even drowning out the entire broadcasting booth.

Kirk could barely find his voice, but he still shouted wildly. After his voice reached its peak, he could only barely find a glimmer of life in the storm. "Touchdown! Touchdown! It's a touchdown! Jesus Christ! It's a touchdown! Without a doubt, it's a touchdown! With nine seconds left in the game, the San Francisco 49ers have come back and won!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are witnessing a piece of history! Without a doubt, we have witnessed the first playoff game of the first Chinese quarterback in history! At the same time, we have also witnessed this Chinese quarterback win his first playoff game! The history of the NFL has been completely rewritten today!"

Sitting in the commentary booth, Kirk's back was straight, his voice was loud and impassioned, and his slightly reddish eyes showed his excitement. Through the microphone, his message was accurately transmitted to the ears of every viewer, igniting a spark on the North American continent that could start a prairie fire.

"This is a miraculous comeback! To end this offensive battle in this way, even God couldn't write such a brilliant script!"

"On January 10, 1981, in the NFC Championship Game, the San Francisco 49ers faced the Dallas Cowboys. Joe Montana connected with Dwight Clark in the final moments to beat their opponent and went on to win the first Super Bowl trophy in San Francisco 49ers history. This pass was called 'The Catch'!"

"In the 1998 Divisional Playoff game, the San Francisco 49ers played against the Green Bay Packers. Steve Young made a pass to Terrell Owens to beat their opponent at a crucial moment and successfully advanced to the NFC Championship Game. This pass was called 'The Catch 2'!"

"On January 14, 2012, 30 years and four days after 'The Catch' was born, the San Francisco 49ers played against the New Orleans Saints in the Divisional Playoff game. With nine seconds left in the game, rookie quarterback Lu Ke found rookie tight end Logan Newman with a 35-yard pass, successfully connecting and beating their opponent. After an eight-year absence, they are back in the playoffs and have made it all the way to the NFC Championship Game. This pass can be called 'The Catch 3'!"

"Lu Ke, this undrafted rookie quarterback, has shown unbelievable energy without anyone's support. He went head-to-head with Drew Brees in an offensive battle, and in the last four minutes, he experienced two back-and-forth lead changes and two game-winning plays. Without a doubt, this is one of the most exciting games of the season, and no one would object if you removed the 'one of'!"

"At this moment, all praise is pale and powerless. Just standing here and listening to the shouts from Candlestick Park, you can feel the true power!"

The shouts gradually grew louder. "Bambi! Bambi! Bambi!"

The unanimous shouts from the entire stadium erupted with an indescribable and unimaginable energy, releasing all the passion of every fan. This moment belonged to Lu Ke, but it also belonged to the fans.

Logan, who had just scored the crucial touchdown, threw the football away, threw away his teammates, and rushed toward Lu Ke. He jumped high, and Lu Ke was forced to hug him. Logan grabbed Lu Ke's helmet and shouted crazily, "We did it! We did it! My God! We did it!"

The same sentence was repeated over and over again, but it was filled with emotion, expressing his passion. As he shouted, Logan started to cry loudly. All of his emotions were completely released at this moment. He cried uncontrollably, and all his words were slurred in his mouth as he just let it all out.

Lu Ke couldn't help but laugh heartily, nodding repeatedly and shouting along, "Yes, we did it! We really did it!" At this moment, it was as if they had won the whole world!

In his sight, all the offensive players rushed crazily toward Lu Ke. They held hands and formed a circle, surrounding Lu Ke in the middle. They were all jumping and spinning, as if they were dancing the hula around a campfire. The scene was a little funny, and even Logan jumped down from Lu Ke's arms and joined the group.

The next moment, the shouts became real and clear. "Bambi! Bambi! Bambi!"

Unexpectedly, Lu Ke's nose tingled, and his eyes welled up with a gentle warmth. But this wasn't sadness or pain. It was joy and happiness. So, Lu Ke laughed brightly and then raised his hands high, jumping and swaying with everyone. His dance moves weren't the prettiest.

"Extra point! Extra point! Extra point!"

Amid the surging shouts, the referee was constantly reminding them that there were still nine seconds left in the game. The Saints still had a chance to play on offense, and before that, the extra point and the kickoff had to be completed. In other words, the game was not over yet.

But all the players were lost in the moment, and even the coaching staff had lost control. Under the referee's urging, Lu Ke and the offense left the field and walked toward the sideline. Then they saw Jim Harbaugh rush up to Lu Ke and hug him tightly. He kept patting Lu Ke's back, shouting, "Beautiful! Beautiful! Jesus Christ! That was so beautiful!"

49-46, the home team was back in the lead by three points.

Then, the special teams unit led by David Akers, without any mistakes, kicked the extra point. The score was 50-46, with nine seconds left in the game. There were still nine seconds left for a spot in the NFC Championship Game.
