Chapter 352 Japan u17 vs Pnd u17 end


    ??A burst of euphoric roar erupted forth in the stadium as a change urred in the scoresheet finally after so long.


    Japan u17: 1 vs Pnd u17: 0


    After sessfully tricking the opposing keeper, Hiro slotted a goal in an empty post, giving his team the much-desired lead in the 74th minute of the match.


    "Japan''s ace has done it. He has finally given his team the much-needed push" Alongside the euphoric roars of celebration, thementator''s loud voice full of praise echoed in the stadium as the ambience of the stadium became extremely electrifying.


    At this moment, all of his teammates rushed toward him with their eyes glistening with tion. For the first time in this entire match, the momentum was on their side.


    And for almost every single one of them, it was their first goal against a team from Europe.


    So, why wouldn''t they feel excited about it? They had all the reason in the world for them to feel euphoric at the moment.


    And the yers of Japan showed no hesitation to express those feelings on the field.


    As much as this goal meant the world to his teammates, it meant the world to Hiro as well. In his previous life, he couldn''t even imagine standing on this stage let alone scoring a goal against such a team that had given birth to the likes of world-renowned yers like Robert Lewandowski, Szcz?sny, and many more.


    Ovee by disappointment and rage, the opposing manager was stomping his feet on the field while hauling curses at his yers.


    "You shitheads, how could you not evenmanage to stop one yer?"


    Meanwhile, his assistant coaches were trying to calm him down. They were afraid that if he continued to act this way, he might get booked by the referee.


    Compared to the scene at the reserve box on the Polish side, the scene at the Japanese side was quite different. With both the coaches and yers celebrating the lead their team had gained, sounds ofughter and excitement were ringing around in their reserve box.


    At this time, both supporters and yers of Japan hade together and were in perfect unison, sharing the same feeling of tion.


    Truly, it was a moment of joy and celebration for the Japanese side.


    The celebrationsted for a while as the yers of Japan shared this dream-like moment of joy with their fans, yelling and shouting at the top of their lungs.


    The serene night sky only added beauty to this beautiful moment ying on the field. With stars seemingly appearing as glitters and the moonlight shining on them appearing as a blessing bestowed upon them from the heavens.


    Looking at his teammates who were far on the other side of the field, Shun revealed a subtle grin as he whispered to himself, "And here he goes, stealing my hard-earned limelight in no time"


    Today, if not for him, his team would have already crumbled. And when Hiro was failing to deliver, he stepped in front when his team needed hope the most.


    Yet now, it appeared as if none of them remembered him. Being a goalkeeper, he was quite aware of the fact that he couldn''t be in the limelight like strikers or other yers who score goals for the team.


    But still, he couldn''t deny that it felt a little depressing to get forgotten so quickly. However, it didn''t mean that he wasn''t happy for his team or was envious of Hiro or other attacking yers.


    As much as the audience who supported his team was happy about the goal, he was happy about it in the same way.


    Since there was still a lot of time left on the clock, they couldn''t afford to get overcarried by the joy of scoring this goal. It was still too early to celebrate.


    They then started returning to their respective position to continue the game.


    While returning, Hiro walked a bit deeper into his side, towards the penalty box. But since he couldn''t afford to waste more time, he didn''t go all the way to the post.


    Instead, he stood at a distance from where Shun could still hear him.


    "Oi Shun" he called out for Shun.


    "Yeah, what?" Shun replied while looking a bit curious and surprised.


    "Make sure you fulfill your promise" Pointing at the scoreboard, Hiro spoke while grinning.


    Following his hands as he looked at the scoreboard, he immediately realized what Hiro was talking about right now— he was asking him to defend their lead.


    A moment ago, he had confidently promised Hiro that he would defend their post at all costs and right now, when they had finally gained the upper hand with this goal, he was asking him to fulfill his promise by defending their lead.


    Smiling, he then replied, "Leave it to me"


    ???? ????


    Beep!!


    "What a breathtaking match we''ve witnessed today. But I''m sure the coaches of the Argentinian side would be analyzing this match thoroughlyter on, looking for areas to improve as they go face-to-face against the Japanese side who have narrowly defeated their opponents with a score of 1-0 a moment ago"


    After an intense 90 minutes, the game between Argentina u17 and Senegal u17 finally ended with Senegal u17 clenching the victory.


    Not only did they win this game, they utterly destroyed the Argentinian side by overpowering them in the entire match.


    Though, the scoreboard read as such; Argentina u17-1 vs Senegal u17-2, Senegal had dominated the entire match, and even the only goal scored by the Argentinian team was in the 91st minute which was scored by Mateo aftering off the bench.


    It was barely a constion goal.


    "I''m sure many of the Argentinian yers and fans would like to forget this match as it was nothing more than humiliation. And with this defeat both Argentina and Pnd have lost one game each while Japan and Senegal have both won their first group match, bringing them one step closer towards the knockout"


    At this moment while the yers of both teams were slowly making their way out of the stadium, the limelight was focused on a yer called Amara from Senegal who had managed to score twice in this game.
