Chapter 23: Siiiuuuuuu
As the opponent team dropped deep, they couldn’t take the ball forward recklessly. However since they were a new team, the opponent team didn’t have any information regarding Ookami elementary school’s team. And hence they were not aware of one crucial information.
Hiro was a fantasista who’s speciality was to break through solid defence line just like Public youth elementary school’s defence.
And since most of the players in the Public youth elementary school stayed close to each other, Hiro could easily dribble past their defender’s one after the other.
{Number 10 from Ookami elementary school is charging the ball forward without any fear.}
Hiro began to dribble the ball forward. As he dribbled the ball forward, the opponent players were forced to come out of their respective zones to defend against him.
Upon seeing him charging forward, one of the offensive player recklessly dashed towards him in an attempt to snatch the ball away from him.
However before he could even attempt to stretch his legs forward, Hiro dribbled past him. While charging towards Hiro, he left his legs wide open and Hiro took full advantage of the gap between his legs. Just as he approached near to Hiro, he kicked the ball between his legs and nutmegged him. The nutmeg happened so fast that he didn’t even realise he was nutmegged.
{That was a beautiful nutmeg from the number 10 of Ookami elementary school. Hahaha and it looks like the number 9 of Public youth elementary school is still in daze.}
“Hahahaha”
“The look on the face of number 9 was a sight to behold.”
An anonymous spectator cheerfully exclaimed.
Just like the commentator, a lot of people in the stand were laughing at that ridiculous nutmeg from Hiro.
After effortlessly passing through that number 9, he was faced with even more defender’s of the opposing team.
But since they came out of their respective zones to defend against him, several spaces were left open. While making use of those spaces, Hiro passed the ball forward towards Sato.
However the defenders of the Public youth elementary school were quick to react to his passes. As soon as the ball was released from his legs, they began to run towards Sato.
In the right wing, Sato was about to shoot the ball. But he paused as he witnessed the opposing defenders closing towards him.
While the opposing defenders were rushing towards Sato, they completely forgot about Hiro. Sato faked his shot and passed the ball straight in the middle.
For a moment it seemed that the ball would land in the feet of opposing player. But out of nowhere, someone else kicked the ball while the ball was still rolling.
The person who kicked the ball was non other than Hiro. The moment he passed the ball to Sato, he had already begun running.
Outside the stadium, two individuals were rushing towards the stadium in a hurry.
“Look we’re already late for his match.”
Hiro’s mother pouted.
Hiro’s father checked his watch and it was only 12:16 PM.
“We’re only 1 minute late. Hiro told me the match would start at 12:15.”
Takashi replied.
“Huh! He told you about the match? Was I the only one who was kept in the dark??”
“And who even needs a beer in a kids game?”
Her face started to turn red as she released the accumulated anger inside her.
{Goaaaaallllllll!!}
With lightning speed, the ball landed on the upper right corner of the goalpost.
At 1 minutes and 57 seconds, Hiro scored the opening goal in the second match of Group A.
It hadn’t even been 2 minutes since the start of the match and yet he already scored a goal.
{Within 2 minutes, Ookami elementary school have opened the scoresheet. And they’ve opened the scoresheet in a style of their own. The keeper couldn’t even react and the looks on the faces of Public youth elementary school’s players says everything about that goal from the number 10 of Ookami elementary school. It was simply fabulous.}
“Shh!! I think I heard something right now.”
Takashi tried to silence his wife.
“Yeah!! Yeah!! Now you’re making things because you don’t want to hear my voice.”
His mother raised her voice even more.
“No, it’s not like that. Just try listening once, I’m sure you’ll hear it too.”
Just then the crowd burst out in cheers. The cheers of the crowd were so loud that it could be heard from the parking lot outside the stadium.
After listening to the loud cheers coming from inside the stadium, Akashi and Momo rushed towards the stadium in hurry.
As they entered the stadium, they witnessed something extraordinary. The atmosphere around the stadium was extremely lively.
“Honey! Are kids game this popular?”
His mother bewilderingly questioned upon witnessing the sights of huge number of spectators in the stand. 𝚘𝚟𝚕．ｔ
“As much as I know, there shouldn’t be this much spectator for a kids game.”
Takashi mumbled in awe.
“Perhaps we may have accidentally entered the wrong venue.”
Takashi mumbled.
“But the score sheet says Ookami elementary school and Public youth elementary school.”
Momo pointed towards the scoresheet.
“Indeed it does.”
Takashi nodded his head.
“But where is Hiro?”
His mother questioned.
Takashi began to look for his son in the pitch. Far in the right corner, he noticed someone who resembled his son.
“Isn’t that Hiro?”
He pointed his finger at Hiro.
“It is indeed Hiro. But what is he doing?”
“I think he’s celebrating.”
As he scored the goal, he performed the trademark celebration of Christian Romero. The ‘Siuuuuuuuuu’ celebration.
The reason why he performed that celebration was because of Akashi. While he and Akashi were talking with each other. Akashi jokingly asked him to perform the trademark celebration of his favourite player.
“I think he scored a goal.”
Since they were in the opposite corner, they couldn’t see him well. And surprisingly they happened to walk in the stands where the supporter of opponent team’s were seated.
“He scored a goal. But why are these people not celebrating his goal?”
His mother questioned.
As she mentioned about the celebration, the people around them gave them cold stares. Their icy cold gaze sent shiver down Takashi’s body.
“Honey! It’s better to keep your mouth shut for a while. Let’s head over to some other seat.”
Takashi pushed Momo and began to walk towards the seat where the cheers were louder.
“Why are you pushing me?”
“Shh!! They’re not celebrating the goal because they are the supporters of the opponent team. So we should head towards the seat with supporters of our team.”
Akashi whispered softly.
The game resumed with a score of 1-0.
The opponent team continued to play defensive football. And Hiro continued to toy with their defense. While most of the supporters were thoroughly entertained by his gameplay, the supporters from Public youth elementary school didn’t seem to enjoy his gameplay.
Just few minutes after scoring his first goal, he scored another goal. And at the 30th minute of the game, he assisted a wonderful goal to Kuro.
{There’s simply no stopping to Ookami elementary school. And there’s simply no stopping to number 10 of Ookami elementary school. He toyed with the players of Public youth elementary school as if he was playing against kids. I mean they are kids and he himself is a kid too. hahahaha}
“Just what is the coach doing?”
“Just mark that number 10 kid.”
“Even us supporters could see clearly that, that number 10 is the real threat from Ookami elementary school”
The supporters of Public youth elementary school started to vent their anger and frustration.
Even though it was a kid’s game, the supporters of Public youth elementary school were extremely frustrated to see their side losing 3-0 before halftime.
“Just who is that number 10 kid?”
One of the supporter of Ookami elementary school who was seated next to Takashi mumbled.
“He’s my son Takahashi Hiro.”
Takashi proudly exclaimed with his chest stretched out.
“He’s your son? But he doesn’t look anything like you.”
The supporter bewilderingly questioned.
“Cough!! Cough!! Well because he takes after his mother more.”
Takashi exclaimed nervously.
The supporter didn’t reply anything at all and looked at him with eyes full of doubt. He was clearly doubting his claim.
Takashi then pulled out his wife and exclaimed;
“Do you still not believe me?”
The supporter took a peek at his mother. However the expression on his face said otherwise. He was mesmerised by his mother’s beauty.
“Yoh! She’s my wife, so don’t you dare think anything weird. And also you better drop that expression of your face before you get punched by her. I’ll warn you, she’s a black belt in karate.”
Hearing that she was a black belt in karate, he quickly took his gaze away from her.
“Now that you mention about it, he does look like your son.”
He exclaimed in a flustered tone and finally agreed to Takashi.
