Chapter 299 Qualifier finals XVI

Just as Takeshi lost his balance, Kim Il-sung while taking advantage of Takeshi's situation, swiftly sprinted forward with the ball.

His fall was inevitable and Takeshi himself knew that by the time he could regain his balance, Kim Il-sung would probably pull off some distance from him.

Thus in desperation, he stretched his arms out towards Kim Il-sung, trying his best to pull him down along with him to stop him. He was about to commit a strategic foul.

All of a sudden, his desperate eyes glowed faintly with joy as he lightly grabbed the jersey of Kim Il-sung.

However his joy was short-lived as Kim Il-sung forcefully jerked his body and shook Takeshi's hold, causing his hands to slip.

If Takeshi could properly get a hold of Kim Il-sung, he wouldn't have failed miserably like this. However he had only got hold of him lightly and before he could even get a proper grip, Kim Il-sung forcefully jerked his body causing his already loosened grip to slip.

Failing to get a proper grip of Kim Il-sung's jersey, Takeshi fell down miserably on the ground, however the referee didn't put a stop to the game.

He didn't even bat an eye towards Takeshi. Instead he kept his gaze fixated towards the person with the ball and continued to rush forward, following the ball.

After skillfully getting past the reach of Takeshi, Kim Il-sung continued to rush forward with the ball.

Now with one down and few still yet to catch up to him, he had one less problem to worry about. However his problems were far from over. With Akutsu and three more defenders infront of him, although he was getting close to his destination, he was still nowhere near his destination.

Looking upfront to find any possible gaps, he found Akutsu perfectly covering the whole area around him, leaving no possible gaps. While keeping Park Seung-gyu in check, he was also blocking the pass course around him.

Unable to find any gaps infront of him, he could only expect to find gaps in his left and right. If he couldn't find any gaps even to his side then he'd be left with only one choice and that is to break through this seemingly impenetrable defence line all by his own. And considering his dribbling prowess that was the last thing he wanted to do. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by ɴovᴇlꜰɪre.ɴet

Akutsu's sharp eyes which was focused at Kim Il-sung, noticed the hesitation contained within those eyes. Noticing the hesitation in those eyes, he gestured the players around him to strengthen their defense.

After that he slowly moved upfield to confront Kim Il-sung. Since he also had to keep the player behind him in check, he couldn't afford to charge blindly.

He could only approach Kim Il-sung cautiously without leaving any gaps open for him to exploit.

Despite him getting past Takeshi, Akutsu knew that Kim Il-sung wasn't a dribbler. And if he were to confront him one on one, he was extremely confident to put a halt to his movement.

Right around this time as he began to slowly move upfield to confront Kim Il-sung, Park Seung-gyu who was struggling behind him a moment ago suddenly rushed forward.

Immediately Hiroshi Tanaka one of the core of their defense reacted quickly as he chased after Park Seung-gyu. He knew that the guy infront of him spelled danger.

And according to his coaches, his finishing inside the box was extremely accurate. To let him loose infront of the post would be the least much thing, he'd like to do at this moment.

His jet-black hair and his sweat drenched jersey dangled as he sprinted towards Park Seung-gyu with all his might.

Compared to Takeshi or Akutsu, he wasn't as impressive as those two. Neither was he tall nor was he bulky. Infact he was of average height while his physique was much similar to that of Hiro, extremely athletic demonstrating his commitment to fitness and agility.

For most part of the tournament he had remained hidden from the limelight. Not because he wasn't bright. But his light was simply overshadowed by those bright light around him.

If he was like a small candle then those around him who were performing well were like bonfire. He simply couldn't compare against those guys.

Also the fact that he was a defender caused him to get even less attention from the crowd.

However right now for split second it was his moment to shine. If he coud successfully prevent this attack, he was bound to get some recognition from the crowd.

Looking at the figure of Park Seung-gyu sprinting infront of him, his eyes flared with determination as his agile feet launched towards Park Seung-gyu.

At the same time noticing the changes taking place infront of him, Kim Il-sung who was about to come face to face against Akutsu who after noticing the changes taking place behind him explosively rushed towards Kim Il-sung, launched the ball.

Kicking the ball at it's lower part, Kim Il-sung chipped the ball above the head of Akutsu. Mid-way while running Akutsu jumped as high as he could to somehow obstruct the ball that was flying over his head.

Although because of his acceleration, he could higher than normal times, he still couldn't manage to reach the ball.

The ball simply flew over his head, leaving him disappointed. And also because of his acceleration, he couldn't stop immediately as he nearly collided with Kim Il-sung.

Upon seeing the flying ball which was headed towards the box, many heart started to race as their eyes grew extremely anxious.

The worst was about to happen. The thing that they had feared was about to become reality. They were about to lose their lead.

At this moment, all of their hope pointed towards one guy who was desperately trying to salvage their hope.

'Please save it'
