Chapter 247 Subduing a wild boar
Hiro however showed no fear as he continued his charge despite seeing the charging captain of the opposing team.
By not halting his movement, Hiro had made his intentions clear, he was going to answer offense with offense.
It was a battle between the captains.
The same crowd who lamented Hiro’s attitude earlier was on their toes right now. The same crowd who berated Hiro’s struggle had become completely silent.
Those players who berated Hiro at the start of the match were tongue-tied right now as they intently stared at the field where the clash between captains of two team was going to take place in any second.
Since Hiro’s transition took so fast, most people in the crowd and most players in the field didn’t even get time to react.
But one thing was certain, all of a sudden the intensity of the match had surged far above everybody’s expectation.
And it hadn’t even been fifteen minutes since the beginning of the match.
Right now while Hiro was charging towards Ahmed, only 13 minutes had passed on the clock.
Making use of Ahmed’s momentum who was dashing towards him like enraged wild boar, Hiro performed a simple roulette to get past charging Ahmed.
His touches delicate and refined. Even that simple roulette, he made it look so elegant that stars could be seen in eyes of some spectators in the stand.
Just with that simple roulette, Hiro not only managed to get past the aggressively charging Ahmed but also managed to captivate the hearts of many onlookers in the stadium.
All along, he had been using his skill Lightning Steps, but now as the effect of the lightning step waned, his acceleration decreased all of a sudden.
However it didn’t matter any longer. Now he was already on his way towards the penalty box. Getting past the reach of Ahmed, Hiro now had only a keeper to be worried about.
Other defenders who were chasing from his left and right, they still needed some time to reach him.
The effect of his omnipotent skill ended, so what? There were defenders charging towards him from both sides, so what?
All he could see right now was the post and the gaps in the post.
Although the keeper had positioned himself in a way to minimise his chances of scoring, Hiro could still see the gap where he needed to shoot the ball to score the goal.
Along with dribbling, finishing was also one of his forte. .
Hiro then moved a little bit closer taking the movements of the charging defenders into account. The reason why he moved closer was to increase his probability of scoring.
At the same time the opposing keeper too moved forward to reduce Hiro’s chances of scoring as much as he can.
It was a wise decision made by the opposing keeper to move forward. The more he got close to Hiro, the more tighter Hiro’s shooting angle would get.
Just then as he noticed some changes in Hiro’s movement, he stretched both his legs and extended both his arms wide in an attempt to prevent the goal.
However the next instant as he stretched all four limbs of his, his pupils rolled above as his head tilted a little while looking at the ball flying high above his head.
‘He…. Chipped the ball!?’ cried out the keeper as he helplessly followed the motion of the ball.
Far behind Hiro, at the other side of the field Shun was fixedly staring at Hiro. His eyes carrying a hint of anxiousness and his hands tightly clenched into a fist was trembling slightly.
Just then all of a sudden, he lifted his hand high above his head as he let out an ecstatic roar, “Gooooaaaaallllllll!!!”
At the same time as the ball struck the net of Jordan’s post, a loud celebration echoed in the stadium.
“Gooooaaaaallllllll!!!!!”
Shaking the stadium to it’s core, thunderous sound of cheers reverberated all over the stadium.
For a moment people no longer cared about the nature of match.
So what if it wasn’t the match of their home country?
Right now they were so engrossed in the moment that such vague reasons didn’t even matter to them. They simply expressed their raw feelings without holding back themselves.
Pure passion!
Filled with the passionate roars of people, right now the whole stadium had lit up.
Some shocked, some anxious, some happy, different kinds of reactions could be seen in the stand right now.
Hiro on the other hand rushed towards the crowded stand and celebrated his goal by closing his eyes while pointing his right index finger at the side of his forehead.
From his gesture it was clear that he was telling people to not doubt his mentality.
With that celebration, he completely shunned all of his doubters.
However even this celebration was a part of his plan.
To the onlookers, it looked like Hiro was silencing his doubters. Superficially, they were correct too.
However if one wanted to know about the true meaning behind this celebration, one should take a peek at the faces of the opposing players.
Gritting their teeth, they were intently glaring at Hiro with their bloodshot eyes. That gesture of his was a blatant provocation.
Specially Ahmed Al-Sheikh’s face was a sight to behold. Because of intense anger, his face had turned red and blue out of anger.
Anger surging within him like violent tides of ocean under harsh weather condition, right now his bloodshot eyes were burning with fury while glaring at Hiro.
His fist tightly clenched was trembling while bulging veins could be seen by naked eyes.
Even so, one may ask why was he so angry just for conceding a single goal?
He wasn’t angry because his team conceded the goal. Right now, he was furious because he was made a fool by Hiro.
The way Hiro executed a simple roulette to get past him was flashing right before his eyes.
Gritting his teeth, Ahmed squeezed a word out of his mouth with great difficulty as he witnessed Hiro’s celebration, “Hiiiiiiiirrrrrooooooo…..”
The one whom he thought could be manipulated was manipulating him all along. But blinded by his fury, he still hadn’t realised that he was being manipulated by Hiro yet.
