Chapter 346 Japan u17 vs Poland u17 II

Turning to look at their miserable state, opposing players as they moved forward, sniggered at them, making fun of their clumsiness.

"Will they be able to run later in the game, if they're already like this?" One of the Polish players remarked in a rather mocking tone, making fun of Japanese players.

"Haha, I hope that their fans won't reprimand us for bullying them later in the match..." Another player added, sounding extremely full of himself.

From the moment they had met the Japanese side in the tunnel, they had been aware of the air of anxiousness lingering around the Japanese side.

And that crappy mood in the opposing side had only acted as a fuel to boost their confidence. This is why, right now every single one of the Polish players was acting so full of themselves; completely looking down on the Japanese players.

To them, only one player was worth their attention. The captain of the team Takahashi Hiro.

Having studied their games before, even they could tell that their captain was of a different breed. And if left alone, he could tear apart their whole team singlehandedly.

Thus, right from the beginning, they were extremely careful while selecting the opponent they wanted to intimidate.

And Hiro for sure did not fall on the list of players, they wanted to provoke to deal further damage to the morale of the opposing team.

"Sorry for pausing so suddenly" Feeling the sensation of someone bumping into him, Hiro apologized as he turned behind only to notice the sight of a frightened Yutaka. The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

"Sorry..., sor...ry, I wasn't paying attention" As if he couldn't hear anything, he kept on apologizing while blaming himself despite it not being his fault.

From the looks of it, Yutaka appeared extremely frightened. It was almost as if, he had committed a heinous crime and was begging for forgiveness after being caught.

Even though Hiro was aware of the anxiousness lingering in their dressing room, he hadn't expected his teammates to be this anxious.

Thus, he'd only be tiring his mouth by trying to encourage these lost causes of teammates using his words.

What his team needed right now was a boost of confidence.And what better way would there be to achieve such a result than by exceeding the hopeless expectations of his teammates who had already admitted defeat even before the start?

Thus, for now, Hiro chose to ignore the matter regarding the low self-esteem of his teammates and continued to tread forward while thinking about ways to complete the quest provided by the system.

Getting an opportunity to copy the talent of one of the future superstars, how could he back out from the challenge?

Well even if he wanted to back out, he didn't have any choice since the quest was mandatory.

But more than the temptation of the reward, he was worried about the punishment. Why you may ask? It's because their next match was against Argentina.

And to beat them, he couldn't afford to lose any of his skills.

Both the teams then lined up next to each other as they awaited the speaker placed in the stadium to play the national anthem of their respective nation.

Even though the stadium appeared mostly vacant, more than four thousand fans showed up for this match.

Shortly after, as the coin toss ended, players of both teams traded a friendly handshake and walked towards their position to start the match.

The small number of fans present in the stands was as loud as ever, passionately cheering for their team while fluttering the flags of their respective nation.

Finally, the game then began with Team Japan's kickoff.

Beep!!

No sooner had the referee sounded his whistle, than the lifeless field came alive with the movement of the players. Passing the ball back to his teammate, Nijichi started the kickoff.
