The undersized Lewis, with the lineman "Butter" all over him, somehow found open space and caught the football.
It was a professional-level set play, carefully planned in advance. Alton believed Lewis would be in position.
Lewis believed Alton would deliver the ball to the designated spot.
He turned, juked, sprinted, then turned again...
Amid the crowd's gasps, Lewis dodged two tackles in quick succession within a narrow space and slithered toward the Wolves' end zone like an eel.
The "Manhole Cover" who'd come over to help on defense planted himself in Lewis's path as Lewis neared the end zone. But just as he spread his arms to bring Lewis down...
The superstar running back twisted his knee, somehow turning his body again before throwing himself forward. With the ball in his right hand, he stretched out his arm and desperately touched the pylon with the football.
As the "Manhole Cover" got up and tried to keep chasing him, Number 15 charged in from the end zone.
Five meters from Lewis, Number 15 spread his arms and swooped toward him like a giant eagle.
He had to stop Lewis before he hit the pylon...
The two collided violently, half a meter from the pylon.
Just as the Wolves fans breathed a sigh of relief, Lewis used the force of Number 15's tackle to execute an unbelievable midair flip.
Number 15 had tried to wrap his arms around Lewis's waist, but he hadn't managed to lock him down completely.
At the instant Lewis was about to fly out of bounds, he braced his left hand against the grass for a little leverage, then surged forward several dozen centimeters...
With a soft thud, the football in Lewis's hand knocked over the pylon!
When the referee's whistle sounded, the entire stadium erupted!
