Chapter 146 Kawasaki vs Tokyo III
Occasionally turning his head sideways to look for any possible gaps, Hiro was making his run towards the opposing goalpost.
Making use of his pace, Kenta was also rushing towards the attacking third with the ball in his feet, while taking the position of his teammates into consideration.
At the same time, opposing right back was also closing in to Kenta to block his path and defend his team's goal.
Getting close to the opposing right back, Kenta performed few sidesteps and swiftly got past the defender. After that Kenta began to cut inside the penalty box.
[Brilliant display of footwork by Kenta. However if he doesn't hurry up then he might lose the position of the ball]
And just as he began to cut inside the penalty box, one of the opposing centre back rushed towards him and once again blocked his path.
Ryui Asada and few other opposing players were also hurriedly rushing towards Kenta. Seeing that many opponent rushing towards him, Kenta started to panic.
Although he was confident in 1vs1 duel, he wasn't confident enough to face more than 1 opponent at the same time.
'Now what should I do?' Gritting his teeth, Kenta thought while slowing down his pace.
Just then he noticed Hiro who was rushing towards him to provide him some support. Kenta then passed the ball and began to make his run further deep inside the box.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever Kenta wasn't the only person who noticed Hiro. Another opposing centre back had also noticed Hiro.
Noticing Hiro, that centre back rushed towards Hiro just as Kenta let go of the ball.
[Amazing pass by Kenta. However it doesn't seem like Hiro will get any space for shooting, as Shuto Nagano is already rushing towards Hiro.]
Shuto Nagano then performed a sliding tackle while rushing towards Hiro. Hiro however didn't touch the ball and simply jumped upwards to avoid getting tackled by Nagano, inturn letting go of the ball.
"Huh!!" Confused by Hiro's actions, Shuto Nagano blurted in shock.
[What's this, Hiro has decided to let go of the ball? Perhaps he made a mistake? No he hasn't made any mistake. He has purposely decided to let go of the ball] Commentating at the top his voice, the commentator immediately corrected his comments after seeing the sight of Tatsuki rushing towards Hiro from behind Hiro.
[He has left the ball for his teammate Tatsuki. Just how did he even see Tatsuki approaching him?] Completely shocked by Hiro's actions, commentator couldn't help himself from questioning.
Tatsuki then shot the ball while the ball was still rolling. Hitting with his left foot, Tatsuki kicked the ball towards the top left corner.
Despite it being his weak foot, Tatsuki didn't make any mistakes while hitting the ball.
The keeper who was anticipating for Hiro's shot was caught off guard. And thus, he ended up conceding yet another goal.
Just like the sound of thunder, loud sound of cheers reverberated all over the stadium just as the ball landed inside the post.
[Gooooaaaaallllllll!!!]
"Gooooaaaaallllllll!!!!"
Standing up from their seats, fans of Kawasaki began to cheer Tatsuki's goal.
[Magnificent!! Magnificent!! Simply magnificent!! The pass, the shot, the build up, everything was perfect. Moreover that step over from Hiro. Just how did he manage to locate Tatsuki?] While making such comments, the commentator's voice sounded very energetic.
Tatsuki then ran towards Hiro, just as he scored the goal. Rushing towards Hiro, Tatsuki hugged Hiro and spoke, "Thank you for letting the ball go."
Trying to get rid of Tatsuki, Hiro replied jokingly, "You got the wrong person. It wasn't me who assisted you. It was Kenta."
"Yeah I know." Mumbling such, Tatsuki let go of Hiro and rushed towards Kenta to thank him for the assist.
After that they celebrated Tatsuki's goal for a while, along with the fans.
[What an amazing goal it was. With only 2 minutes remaining for the first half to end, Kawasaki are in the lead. Leading by two goals, till now they are in complete control of the game. Will FC Tokyo bounce back? Or will Kawasaki increase their lead further? Only time will tell us.]
With that goal from Tatsuki, the scoreboard read as such; Kawasaki-2 and FC Tokyo-0.
And with only 2 minutes remaining for the end of the first half, without delaying any further, the referee blew his whistle to continue the match.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBeep!!
With the whistle of the referee the game continued at 43rd minute of the game.
Passing the ball back to his teammate, Tsubasa initiated the kickoff.
However without being able to do anything, the first half came to an end. And even in the extra 3 minutes added after the end of 45 minutes the opponents still couldn't do anything.
[A disappointing result for the away team. Down by two goals, they seem completely lost. In that entire first half, they couldn't even register one shot on target. Seems like coach Okuhara needs to make some radical changes in the squad in the second half.]
One after the other, players of both team started to exit the stadium after the end of first half.
Walking down the aisle, players of both the team were heading towards their respective locker room.
"I think in today's match I can outscore you." Mumbled Tatsuki cheerfully.
"Well you both are tied right now. But I wish I could get to play as well." Shun replied.
Hiro however remained silent and continued to make his way towards the locker room without replying anything.
While they were making their way towards the locker room, Tsubasa Watanabe walked towards them.
Furrowing his brows and flaring his nose, Tsubasa spoke, "Don't get too full of yourself. The match hasn't ended yet."
Hearing his way of speaking, Tatsuki jumped forward and stood between Hiro and Tsubasa. Puffing his chest, Tatsuki tried to make him look bigger. Slightly lifting his head, Tatsuki then coldly stared at Tsubasa as if he was looking down from a high platform.
"Just because he doesn't talk much, you think you can bully him?" Spoke Tatsuki in a domineering manner.
"Yeah why are you approaching him when we're the one who's making the comments?" Standing beside Tatsuki, Shun too stepped infront to face Tsubasa.
