The superhuman striker of the Galaxy stars gritted his teeth in rage as he stared at Neo who was currently undergoing treatment.
Destiny's thoughts were boiling as he clenched his teeth even tigher. I knew it! I knew that that speed just too unrealistic to belong to that No 7, it was definitely borrowed, his body isn't eventrained enough, he's too weak to use ou trait. Even his shot earlier, it really resembles that of dad...
I can't believe this! To think that Dad would reject me, only to teach this talentless No 7, only to teach him the treasures of our family. Dad blew me off coldly, saying I lacked all the qualifications to become the goat, and so he wasn't going to waste precious time on me.
I will show him...Destiny thought to himself, his eyes glazed and anger brewing from his eyes. I will show dad that I'm better than Neo...I will prove to him that he made a wrong decision by casting me away and choosing this No 7. I will crush Neo and win this tournament, so that Dad will surely apologize! I will destroy Krystal Fc, and when I do so, I will make sure Dad sees that I'm much more better than Neo!
The match was underway again in a few minutes, Neo was by the sidelines, waiting for the ball to go out of bounds before he would play again.
Harry was quiet as he pulled a shot towards the center of the pitch. Everyone knew what was going through his mind, Harry really hated conceding goals. Even though no one would see the play just now as a conceded goal, Harry would see it that way, and it really pissed him off to think that he had just conceded a goal in the first thirty minutes of the match. If not for the linesman who waved the offside flag, or the fact that he was completely tricked by the shot just now and was barely saved by the woodwork. For Harry, any ball that crossed the goal line while play was still going on, was a goal.
Adrienne and Bose queued up under the ball, they both muscled each other, waiting for the perfect time for the ball to land before they jumped.
In the end, they were both too short to make any contact with the ball and the ball was won by Eric who positoned smartly behind them.
Eric sliced a pass towards Cai who was already making a run in the direction of the opponent's goal post.
Claret read the move very well, he had closed in on Cai immediately.
Players like Claret were the smart ones, but he lacked the skills and phsicality to be adequately noticed, he tended to rely on his teammates to finish the job. The fact that he played amongst such talented players made even more relaxed. Right now, he had succeeded in blocking Cai, but that didn't mean that he was going to steal the ball from the opposing winger.
Claret leaned in and jammed his body against Cai's, hoping to destabilize him and let the defenders steal the ball.
Cai's advance was totally stopped, but it'd be underestimation to think that that was all Cai could do.
Cai was cornered, he knew he couldn't afford any frivolous acts but he still decided to play one or two tricks.
Cai spun around and scooped the ball upwards, using his body to block Claret's vision, Cai played the ball upward and over him. In the next second, he had accelerated to the Max and he was on the loose.
Marbles defenders were quick to react, they immediately approached Cai who flicked the ball to his teammate without stopping the run. The ball was returned to Cai with a sweet One-two pass. Cai's first touch was to pass the ball between Berry's legs and let the ball run a little.
Zoe was quick to come to the aid of his friend and teammate, he slid towards Cai in a one-man fashion. The ball was knocked into the throwing lines.
Cai gritted his teeth as he cussed silently, feeling frustrated. So we really can't get through the both of them at the same time?
The referee belw his whistle and Neo was ushered back into the field. He was advised to be a lot more careful, lest he incurred worse injuries on his leg. Right now, it was only a simple case of stress on the legs, later it might graduate to something worse.
Adrienne threw the ball towards Neo but it was quickly knocked away by Bose, the ball went out of bound again.
Neo grimaced in slight disappoitment, his leg was significantly heavier and he felt it was harder than normal to control his limbs. Despite the large amount of numbing sprays that was used on him, Neo still felt a slight pain on his knee cap. It was even more disappointing for him, because this was only the thirty second minute.
Neo looked around him as the throw-in was made. He had to find and adopt a new method as quickly as possible, else, he wouldn't be able to cope with the next crisis. He wasn't going to depend on flash steps all the time, even though Soma and the doctors said that his injuries weer completely healed, Neo didn't want to risk it.
He couldn't afford to trigger his injuries.
