255  Greatest honour

Just like that with his unpredictable style of fast-paced dribbling, he easily got past through next three defenders as well.

Now he was well within the reach of the goalpost. All he needed to do now was to shoot the ball.

However just as he stretched his legs to shoot the ball, a leg came flying towards his ankle from behind him which inturn sent him rolling on the floor before he could even release the ball.

As he got hit, his pupils rolled upwards while he let out an agonising scream, "Aaaaaa!!" before falling with his face first against the ground. novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.net

Beep!!

The referee immediately sounded the whistle as he put a halt to the game.

Just as the referee sounded the whistle, a lot of players of Japan furiously rushed towards the spot where Ahmed was lying with malevolent intentions.

"That coward!! He intentionally fouled him" growled one of the player while sliding his sleeves upwards.

However since referee wasn't far away from Hiro and Ahmed, he immediately rushed towards the spot; inturn blocking the players of Japan from approaching Ahmed.

Although it was somewhat hard to stop their march, while making use of his authority referee immediately put a halt to their actions.

Against referee's authority nobody dared to make a move. They could only bite their tongue and back off.

After subduing the furious players of Japan, this time without delaying any further, referee immediately came to a conclusion.

Walking towards the spot where Hiro was lying, groaning in pain, he reached his hands to his pocket and raised his hands above his head as he took a card out from his pocket.

It was a straight red card!

And the one who received that card was Ahmed Al-Sheikh, captain of Jordan national u17 team.

Even while receiving the card, Ahmed didn't refute with the referee.

Furrowing his brows, he simply wiped off the sweat in his forehead before standing and walking out of the pitch without uttering a single word.

"That foul was intentional"

"He wasn't targeting the ball. All along he was targeting his legs"

"Even he knows that foul was intentional. Hmph!! Look at him, not even denying"

A lot of people scoffed and berated Ahmed for intentionally fouling Hiro.

"It doesn't look like an accident. From the way Ahmed's acting, it seems like that this foul was intentional" commentator commented in a heavy voice.

At this moment, even while watching his team's captain getting sent off, unlike before when Musa was sent off, manager of Jordan national u17 team seemed quite calm.

Sure enough, he had already given up on the match. Afterall they were not losing by one or two goal but by whopping seven goals.

The difference was simply too big.

With less than 5 minutes remaining on the clock, it simply wasn't possible under any circumstances for them to reverse the situation.

On the other hand, manager of Japan national team, while carrying a grim expression on his face was yelling at the medics to hurry up towards Hiro.

With such a harsh tackle like that, an injury was probably unavoidable. And a lot of people were prepared for that as well.

They were all prepared to send off Hiro gracefully.

This young captain not only had entertained them but he had also ignited the passion within them with his brilliant performance.

However against all the odds, Hiro came out totally unscathed with only minor bruises.

At the site where he got hit, a bluish red bruised marks of spike of cleats could be seen. However apart from the bluish red bruised mark, everything else was fine. Fortunately he hadn't fractured his bones.

Even so he was still going to get substituted regardless of his condition. Afterall he had already done more than enough.

Scoring four goals and providing two assists, he had displayed a one man show.

Right now as Hiro stood up with the support of the medics, all of a sudden a thunderous sound of clap started to resound in the stadium.

Clap!! Clap!! Clap!!

Upon hearing the sound of the clapping, Hiro turned to look at the stands.

The instant he turned towards the stand, his pupils expanded as an overwhelming sensation of shock enveloped him.

At this moment, the scene which was reflecting in his eyes was something out of this world, something he never had imagined.

Almost the entire stadium was on their toes right now, clapping their hands, praising Hiro's efforts. The spectators in the stands were giving him a standing ovation.

In history only few players have achieved this marvelous achievement. And right now, Hiro who was only 14 years old was receiving the greatest honour a player could ever attain in their life.

Receiving standing ovation from the home crowd isn't that big of deal. However receiving standing ovation from away crowds, it's something only few have achieved.

"This young captain totally deserves the praises of this people. From scoring brilliant goals to providing out of this world assist, this young captain of Japan has literally put an one man show." His tone cheerful, commentator was full of praises.

After a moment while witnessing the breathtaking scene infront of his eyes, Hiro's face lit up as a smile appeared on his face.

He was deeply touched by the sincerity of the crowd.

Hiro then raised his hands off the shoulder of the medics who were supporting his stance. The medics who were supporting him were reluctant to let him go.

"Please" looking at them with his puppy eyes, Hiro requested them to let him go for a moment.

And as he discarded the support of the medics, he stood straight with his chest puffed and head raised.

Hiro then bowed his head to thank the spectators for bestowing him such honour.

He bowed his head in every direction, thanking everybody present in the stand.

Witnessing his genuine gesture, crowd started respecting him even more. Looking at Hiro with eyes full of reverence, each and every single one of them continued to shower him with praises and claps.

Hiro then after thanking the audiences, once again rested his hands atop the shoulder of the medics as he borrowed their support to walk out of the pitch.

While leaving, as the captain of the team, he entrusted the penalty to Yutaka.

Despite coming so close so many times, Yutaka still hadn't managed to score any goals. Thus with this penalty, Hiro wanted to boost Yutaka's morale.

And because of that instead of giving the penalty to the person who was most likely to score the penalty, Hiro handed the penalty to Yutaka instead.
