Chapter 293 Qualifier finals X

Obviously where there's light there's bound to be shadow. Just like that where there's joy there's bound to be misery.

In similar fashion right now while players and supporters of Japan were celebrating, players and supporters of opposing team were grieving over the goal.

Beep!!

Just like this, first half of the match finally came to an end with a score of 2-1 with Japan being in the lead.

Frowning their eyes and with their head lowered as if they were desperately trying to avoid looking at the stands, most players of the opposing team sloppily started exiting the pitch. While exiting the pitch, their face seemed rather pale.

"What are you all doing? Do you expect Park Seung-gyu to carry you all deadbeats on his back alone?" One of the supporters of opposing team furiously growled, venting his anger.

He wasn't the only one who seemed vexed right now. Infact there were quite a lot of supporters who were yelling at the players, furious about their player's performance.

After witnessing their players getting toyed by a single opposing player, it was quite reasonable for them to get agitated.

Not only once but Hiro had toyed with their defense line countless times in only matter of fourty five minutes.

The performance of their team had really let down the fans who had travelled from so far just to see them play.

And in this whole tournament until now it was the first time South Korean team was on the losing end in the first half.

A sharp contrast to the Korean side, Japanese side was all sunny. Their players eyes were glistening with joy while their supporters were full of praises.

Laughing, chatting and joking, they were exiting the pitch in pretty good mood unlike their opponents who were exiting the stadium carrying a bitter expression on their faces.

Although winning and losing are part of the game. But who likes losing?

The winner enjoys the praises while the loser gets hauled with curses. And the same scene was happening in the stadium right now.

Supporters of Japan who were extremely joyous were praising the performance of their players. Specially Hiro, he was the talk of the town. Almost in every part of the stadium, he was getting mentioned.

"We're really blessed to have such a good player in our team" one of the supporter of Japan exclaimed with extreme gratefulness, praising Hiro.

"I wonder if some of them would win us the world cup someday" another supporter mumbled in an expectant tone.

Once a player starts to shine, he/she's bound to garner expectations of the people around them. And the more he/she shines, the more expectations will be placed upon them.

However being the reason behind people's expectations is both a curse and a blessing. If you could stand onto their expectations you'll be praised and worshipped. However if you fail to deliver as per their expectations, you'll get cursed and haunted.

Such is the burden a talented player has to carry. And also because of such kind of expectation placed upon them a lot of genarational talent succumbs to the pressure and fails to deliver as per their original potential.

Right now, Hiro was facing the same situation. Even before the tournament, with his performance in Takamado Cup, he had already started attracting the expectations of the peoples.

But now as he continued to shine on even bigger stage, representing his country, he was garnering even more expectations.

However right now, although Hiro was well aware of the expectations put on him, since he hadn't experienced such feeling in his previous life, he was pretty much new to such experience.

'Second half will be even more tougher. I've already exhausted most of my skills. Although I still have two turns of fireball shot and two turns of eagle eye left, I've already used my skill Lightning Steps to it's maximum. But considering the use of the skill perseverance, may be I can pull another one. However I need to leave that for only desperate moments. I shouldn't pull that skill casually' thinking about his skill usage, Hiro started to analyse his skills with a solemn look on his face.

Just based on the skill consumption of Hiro, one could tell how tough and competitive this game was in actuality.

While his teammates were all smiles and laughter, Hiro was one of the only person from his team who wasn't wearing a smile on his face.

His teammates were blinded by their superficial lead. They were so distracted by their lead that almost non of them were thinking about the bigger picture.

Only the first half had come to an end. The game was only half over. Thus it was just too early to celebrate.

However most of his teammates were already acting like as if they had already won the game, completely ignorant of the fact that the opposing team might become even stronger in the second half.

Only Hiro and few others from his team knew about the severity of the situation.

Their tactics had mostly been exposed, thus their opponents would definitely come up with a counter measure in this 10 minutes break.

And once they come up with the counter measure, it was only a matter of time before they'll lose their lead.

One should enjoy the moment. However one shouldn't be shortsighted either. And right now his teammates were blinded by the temporary victory.

At this moment, while he was still pondering about the tactics, Shun walked towards him and spoke in a deep voice, "Was Park Seung-gyu hiding his skills?"

Hearing Shun's voice, Hiro immediately turned towards Shun, looking somewhat puzzled.

"Earlier while stopping his attacks it felt like he was testing something. Like as if he was leveling mid game"

The stuffs which Shun spoke made Hiro ponder even more deeper. He could somehow relate with Shun's explanation.

He was getting that feeling that Park Seung-gyu's gameplay was continuing to increase with every passing seconds.
