Chapter 288 Qualifier finals V

Infact he was rather calm. Not even a hint of anxiousness could be seen on his face.

However Kim Ji-hoon's eyes seemed rather panicked. And he also seemed a bit hesitant.

Despite noticing Hiro charging towards him, he wasn't making any moves. As if he was intentionally holding him back from moving forward, despite being a speedster he was actually moving rather slow.

'Speedster Kim Ji-hoon let's see who's legs are the fastest' thinking so, Hiro activated his skill Lightning Steps.

Kim Ji-hoon's eyes flashed with cold light as he reacted quickly. Exerting a great amount of pressure on his legs, he accelerated towards Hiro. Just like Hiro had studied about him, he had also studied about Hiro.

Kim Il-sung and another player who was pursuing Hiro felt the sudden rise in Hiro's speed. However neither of those two could afford to lose their sight of Hiro.

Thus despite their inability to run fast, they gritted their teeth as they continued to pursue after Hiro by giving their all.

Even so just after few seconds despite trying their best those two were ruled out of the picture. And right now only Kim Ji-hoon was able to barely match Hiro.

However even he seemed like he was struggling a lot. His breathing was extremely hurried and he was panting heavily. His face had become extremely sweaty and beads of sweat were continuously pouring down his face.

Instead of moving towards the goalpost, Hiro was actually moving towards the edge of the penalty box.

Everybody were both awed and baffled by Hiro's actions. They were marvelled by his speed but at the same time they were baffled by Hiro's choice of moving away from the post instead of moving in the straight line.

However at the nick of time, Hiro performed a chop and quickly changed his direction.

Opposing defenders including Kim Ji-hoon who was lying on the ground a moment ago rushed towards the ball to clear it away.

However Nijichi who had been waiting for an opportunity since a moment ago was the first one to reach the ball.

Even so, Nijichi couldn't land the final blow as he was sandwiched by the opposing defenders. The ball thus once again hit the post and bounced back.

However this time it bounced back quite far away from the range of both the opposing keeper and opposing defenders.

Only Kim Il-sung and few others who were relatively far from the post were the ideal ones to clear that ball.

Nijichi could do nothing this time, he was simply too far away. Honda and Suzuki both were also the same.

Just when it seem like the ball would get cleared away, something unexpected happened. Kim Il-sung who was about to head the ball away, his eyes were filled with terror. The silhouette of a sturdy rod like leg was covering his vision.

At this moment, as if Hiro had grown wings, he had leapt quite high from the ground. And his sturdy legs were righy now extending towards the sky while his hovering back was facing the ground.

Bam!!

A loud sound resounded around a small perimeter as Hiro's legs made contact with the ball.

Many eyes present in the crowd glittered with excitement and marvel while many expression became frozen. It was like the sea of supporters had suddenly turned into lifeless mannequin.

However the next instant, those same people jumped on their toes as they threw their hands in the air while shouting at the top of their lungs, "Gooooaaaaallllllll!!!!!!!"

At once an electrifying sound of cheers circulated within the stadium, shaking the whole stadium to it's core.

The once deathly silent atmosphere buzzed with liveliness as people celebrated the bicycle goal of Hiro.

However at this time, Hiro was lying on the ground; trying to lift his body from the ground.
