Though his tone was condescending, Hiro didn't feel bothered by it. Instead, he smiled and answered, "Sure," before the crowd swarmed over him.
The celebration raged on, their excitement palpable.
This goal was extremely crucial for them. With this, if they manage to defend the next few minutes, they could go home with three points.
"Hiro, the number ten of Atletico Madrid, he just can't stop scoring," the commentator expressed, clearly impressed by Hiro's performance.
[(1) Atletico Madrid 69pts]
[(2) FC Barcelona 67pts]
[(3) Real Madrid 64pts]
[(4) Atletic Club 58pts]
The updated table after Hiro's goal flashed on the screen.
Upon witnessing the current standing, some Atletico fans couldn't stop their tears. Tears of joy flowed out of their eyes as they celebrated their current league standing.
The next few games of Atletico Madrid were against relatively easy clubs.
They had defeated both their competitors that threatened their spot in the table. Be it the giant Real Madrid or the offensive powerhouse Barcelona, they had slayed both the behemoths.
Like a storm, they had swept the league standing.
And the person standing at the storm's center was none other than their newest signing- the phantom on the field: Takahashi Hiro.
Hiro had led them from the fifth spot to the top of the table.
The result remained unchanged even after the continuation of the match. Despite their desperate attempt to level the score, Barcelona failed to score in the added extra time.
Beep!
The shrill sound of the whistle echoed throughout the stadium, signaling the end of the match.
Hiro was at the center of the attention, the crowd jubilantly chanting his name.
Cameramen gathered around them, capturing the moment. They didn't want to miss this moment. They could see clear opportunities at this moment.
To defeat Barcelona in their home ground was a big piece of news and nobody wanted to miss
it. Hence, they swarmed around the celebrating Atletico players and captured the moment.
During the celebration, Hiro stepped outside to get some breather.
Even though Hiro was excited about the victory, he was exhausted. Having run tirelessly around the pitch while maintaining keen senses had left him drained.
Hence, he wanted to rest for a while. For that reason, he stepped outside.
Just as he stepped outside, he started feeling thirsty. So, he headed to the sideline to get some
water.
The opposing players were slowly retreating. However, he didn't pay much attention to them. He figured it wouldn't be a good time to greet them.
Hence, he trod straight to the sideline, ignoring the opposition around him.
However, on his way, he was stopped by the imposing blond. Hiro tried to ignore him and walk past him. But he kept blocking his way as if he wanted to speak something.
Encountering his gesture, Hiro paused and stared straight at him.
'What does he want?' Hiro pondered, looking straight into Cillian's eyes.
Though that icy cold gaze had intimidated him before, he wasn't intimidated by them now.
Hiro stood before him, unfazed.
Towering over Hiro, Cillian stared down at Hiro without uttering a single thing.
Due to their height difference, it felt like watching a confrontation between a kid and an adult. Yet even while under Cillian's presence, Hiro remained composed.
"It's my loss this time," Cillian admitted, his tone rather gruff. "But I won't lose next time."
