Kapitel 71: Showoff

Beep!!

The second half continued with the kickoff from the opposing team.

After conceding a goal at the end of the first half, they started to play even more aggressively.

Right from the kickoff, the opposing team started to press the ball forward.

After receiving the pass from the centre forward of his team, Hirato released a powerful through ball towards the middle of the left flank of the pitch.

Since they were playing in a 4-2-1-3 formation, the left and right side of their midfield had to be covered by the two central midfielders who stood at the border of centre and side.

However the two centre midfielders of his team were extremely sloppy. Let alone cover the flanks, they wouldn't even leave their positions at all. As if they were a box to box midfielder whose field coverage was only upto the middle third of the pitch, they would rarely drop behind or run towards the sides.
