Kapitel 67: Super-sub
"What an incredible performance by Murano!" The commentator exclaimed.
"Absolutely unbelievable! He's a force to be reckoned with in this match! That's pure talent right there!" The co-commentator added enthusiastically.
"The U-20 team is struggling to contain Hayashi Murano. He's unstoppable, and his talent is on full display!" The commentator continued.
The commentators continue to discuss the game as the camera zooms in on Murano. He takes off his jersey, revealing his name and the number 10. And here comes a yellow card for Murano's jersey removal celebration.
"And there's Murano, proudly showing off his jersey. What a moment for him!" The commentator exclaimed.
"This is a defining moment for Murano. He's proven himself as a top player." The commentator added.
"The Blue Lock Project has succeeded!" He added.
"Natsui, what are your thoughts on Murano completely dominating the best Japanese defensive team we've ever seen?" The commentator asked the co-commentator.
"It's unbelievable to see such skill from a Japanese player. This goes to show that our hopes of winning the World Cup may become a reality in the next few years. I'm already a fan of Murano and Blue Lock," the co-commentator replied.
"That's right. Now let's get back to the action on the field as the U-20 prepares for kickoff."

The U-20 once again kicked off with a pass from Sae to Rin.
Rin then began to dribble forward with the ball, but Murano quickly closed in on him, blocking all angles.
"Give it up, Rin, you are not getting past me," Murano demanded.
"Let's see if you can make it," Rin replied.
"We both need a single goal to complete our hat-trick, right? Let's see who can do it first," Rin added.
He attempted a dazzling display of stepovers, hoping to outsmart Murano.
For a fleeting moment, Murano seemed fooled, but Murano pretended to be fooled by that.
Murano read him like a book.
With a deft flick of his foot, he stole the ball from under Rin's legs, at play with most of his special abilities.
With a swift, decisive movement, he had dispossessed Rin.
The stolen possession smoothly transitioned to Hiori in midfield, who, with a composed touch, directed it toward Isagi, who just came on to replace Reo.
Isagi, sensing the urgency of the waning minutes, spotted Bachira making a run down the right flank.
He quickly played a one-two with Bachira.
Bachira would then dribble past Harou Hayate with a hyperspeed scissors move and then a nutmeg through Wakatsuki's legs.
These substitutions, it seemed, were the spark Blue Lock needed to reignite their momentum.
After all, in these kinds of late stages, it is a super sub who comes off the bench, typically when the team needs a boost from fresh legs to either equalize or move the game forward.
Bachira, with a mischievous grin playing on his lips, found himself face-to-face with Darai.
"Your tricks won't work on me," Darai confidently boasted, saying that Bachira's tricks wouldn't work on him.
"Huh?" Bachira was surprised to see Darai keeping up with his moves.
"The field has its 'yin' and 'yang'. The front and the back." Darai explained.
"In a game, there are those who play up front with the ball and those who work from behind seeking an opportunity to strike," he continued, blocking Bachira's path.
"What a pity! You'll have to step up your game, lower-class bob-cut ninja," Darai taunted before lunging in to steal the ball.
"Heh," Bachira simply smiled and effortlessly maneuvered past him with a marseille turn.
On his way, he saw Isagi making a diagonal run and offered himself as a passing option.
However, he spots an even better option: Murano, who broke free from Nio and Aiku's tight defense with his incredible speed.
Meanwhile, Nagi was being closely marked by Teru Neppei, known for his rapid pace. Shidou was occupied with Haru Hayate.
The stage for the next goal was set. The tension has risen. What would Bachira's next move be?

Luciffero Ended up binge watching That time I got reincarnated as a slime, which led me to have less time to write this. Hence a short chapter today. Is any one here a fan of Rimiru?
