<h4>Chapter 8: All out defence</h4>


    Woo hoo!! Woooahh!!!


    "What''s that noise?"


    One of the spectator who was about to leave the futsal inquired.


    The crowds inside the futsal burst out in ecstasy. The loud cheering noiseing from inside the futsal made the spectators who were leaving the premises curious. The loud cheers worked like a ma attracting the maic substance. The leaving spectators started to return back to witness the reason behind the cheers.


    {What will number 19 do in this situation? Three defenders and a keeper stands before him and the goal post. And there''s no sight of his teammate, he''spletely surrounded}


    As soon as he trapped the ball, the opponent defenders reacted quickly and blocked the path course towards the goal post.


    Hiro quickly scanned for any support but there was none. His teammates were all clustered in their own half. He was left with only one solution. If he wanted to score the goal, he would have to dribble past all those three defenders.


    {What''s this? He''s moving the ball forward by himself and facing the defender head on. Is he that confident to take on three defenders all by himself or is he that desperate for the goal?}


    {Whatever it is we''ll only know after a while. Let''s see what this kid will show us}


    Hiro dashed towards the goal post but a defender blocked his course. He performed a body feint while making use of his pace and sessfully passed the first defender. However the other two defenders followed up instantly and cornered him.


    The second defender had his legs wide open. Making use of his open legs, he lightly kicked the ball between his legs and nutmegged him. The second defender was stunned by his performance.


    However thest defender followed up with a sliding tackle. Hiro gently tapped the ball at the lower part and chipped the ball above him.


    The keeper sensing danger jumped towards the ball to punch it away. But before his punch could reach the ball, his feet reached it faster. In mid air, he kicked the ball towards the goal.


    {Gooooaaaaallllllll!!!!!! Finally team 1 has opened up the score sheet. Magnificent!! Simply magnificent!! How is a kid of this age able to demonstrate such unbelievable talents?? Just where had coach Han been hiding such an overwhelming talent??}


    Upon seeing the underdog fighting back against the omnipotent, almost everybody present in the pitch burst out in ecstasy. The whole futsal was filled with cheers and praises.


    "Just what are you doing? Can''t you block a single person? It''s 1vs3 and yet you still get defeated?"


    The opponent keeper spilled his anger on the three defenders who failed to defend against him despite outnumbering him three to one.


    {What''s this? The calm and collected keeper of the little boy FC youth club is suddenly fuming after the first goal.}


    While the opponent''s keeper was shouting at his defenders, Hiro ran towards the part of the stand where his parents were seated.


    His teammates chased him to celebrate with him, however he was too fast for them to catch up.


    "I''ll score 3 more goals. Just watch me!"


    He announced to his father''s face.


    "Yeah sure sure!! If you could score that many goals then I''ll buy you your favourite cleats."


    His father ced a wager upon hearing his deration.


    Beep!!


    {The referee has blown the whistle and the match continues}


    {The number 19 kid has opened the score for his team just after 45 second''s of his arrival. Now the scoresheet is little boys 3 and team one 1.}


    "Hmph!! That''s just a fluke. Why are they even cheering that much for a fluke goal??"


    The opponent team''s striker exasperated.


    It was natural for him to get irritated. Afterall despite scoring 2 goals in that match, he wasn''t praised as much as Hiro. So it was natural for him to get jealous.


    Out of jealousy, he decided to dribble pass the entire team of team 1 all by himself. And as soon as he got the pass from his teammate, he dashed towards the team 1''s goal all by himself.


    The striker in Hiro''s team proved to absolute garbage against the charging striker of the opponent team, as he couldn''t do anything against him.


    {Is it some kind of deration to the number 19 kid of team 1? Little boy''s striker is charging all by himself towards the goal. What will team 1 do now? He''s already left 3 yer of team 1 in dust and it doesn''t seem that he''ll slow down any time sooner. But what''s this?}


    {Number 19 kid is blocking his course. Is it only this far that he can take the ball by himself? Will he pass or will he try to break through??}


    The opponent''s striker locked his eyes with him, as if he was signalling for him toe towards him. Just like the opponent''s striker wished, Hiro dashed towards him.


    As Hiro stood infront of him, the opponent striker couldn''t see any space to exploit and thus kicked the ball forward and started to run towards the ball. He wanted to make use of his explosive pace.


    "Heh!! I win. You''re no match for my pace."


    The opponent striker smirked.


    "Huh!! Huh!!!"


    The smile on his face quickly faded away as he found Hiro running towards him like a cheetah. At that moment he realised that he was no match for Hiro''s pace.


    {Oh what''s this? He got outwitted at his own game. The number 19 kid reached the ball way before him.}


    ''I admit that you''re faster than me. But that won''t amount to anything if I snatch the ball from you.''


    Admitting his weakness, he raised his guard to defend against Hiro.


    Hiro approached him slowly. And he was keeping his eyes fixated at the ball as well.


    "Let me teach you how to do it."


    Hiro smirked as he kicked the ball forward and dashed towards the ball, leaving him in dust.


    "That bastard!!"


    The opponent striker heard his taunt and cussed him as he tried to chase after Hiro.


    However he couldn''t do anything. No matter how fast he sprinted, he couldn''t reach Hiro.


    {What an amazing speed!! He passed the opponent yer without breaking any sweat. But is this just as far as he can go? The opponent yer have reacted quickly and surrounded him}


    {But what''s this? He''s not slowing even a bit. He''s charging head on all by himself.}


    Hiro dashed with the ball towards the goal without losing his momentum. Several opponent yer showed up, blocking his course.


    {Away from one, from two, from three and he''s still going. Magnificent!! Magnificent!! Away from four, five, six and yet he''s still going. The only one left to beat is the goalkeeper}


    After dribbling past 6 opponent yer by himself, he found himself infront of the goal 1vs1 with the goalkeeper. Even after breaking through, 6 guys all at once, he couldn''t see any gap in the keeper. The opponent''s goalkeeper had covered the entire goalpost all by himself. He didn''t let a single space for him to shoot.


    As he moved forward with the ball, the opponent''s keeper left his post and dashed towards him to minimise his shooting space. The keeper wasn''t afraid of taking his shots on face.


    ''Shoot if you can. I''ll block your shots even if I had to take it on face.''


    The opponent keeper was determined to stop his shot.


    The keeper''s eyes were fixated at the ball and he was calcting his every body movement. He was overtly cautious.


    Making use of his cautiousness, he stretched his legs to shoot the ball. Just as he stretched his legs, the keeper predicted that he''d shoot the ball and dived forward to block the shot.


    But contrary to his prediction, Hiro faked the shot.


    "Heh!! Baka!!"


    Just as the keepernded roughly, he shot with his other leg into the open goal.


    {Gooooaaaaallllllll!!! It''s another goal from number 19. That shot, that movement, that fake, that pace, everything, everything, just everything he did was fabulous. Simply fabulous!!}


    After scoring that goal, he again ran towards his parents side. Pointing two fingers at his father, he signalled him to keep his money prepared for the cleats.


    {Just who is that kid? Where have hee from? I''ve not seen anything like this even in J-league. That goal was simply a work of art.}


    {It''s not even been 5 minutes since he scored his first goal and he has already scored the second one. May be now they can change the oue of the match. Its little boy''s 3 and Team one 2.}


    {To tie the match team 1 will have to score one more goal in next 13 minutes. And seeing the performance of the number 19 kid, they might actually pull it off.}


    Beep!!


    {After that goal, the coach of the little boy''s youth club is looking somewhat anxious. He''s making some changes.}


    {yer change for little boy''s youth club. Number 7 out number 5 in, Number 10 out number 3 in. Number 9 out number 22 in}


    {It seems the coach is really anxious. He''s subbing all his offensive yers for defensive yers. Are they nning to defend their one goal lead?}


    After that magnificent goal, the coach of the little boys youth club subbed all of his offensive yer for a defensive yer. Previously their formation was 3-2-1 but now after the changes it became 5-1-0. With no offensive yer, they fortified their defence sacrificing their offense. And even that sole yer in the mid yed as a defensive mid.
