Just as Hiro finished his sentence, the atmosphere around the tunnel got silent all of a sudden as players of both the team subconsciously shut their mouth.

Specially those bunch who were talking loudly a moment ago, right now their complexion had gotten ashen.

Among those bunch, while Hiro was still speaking, one of them was thinking of justifying their actions by saying that they were only joking to raise their morale.

However upon witnessing Hiro’s dead serious expression, he couldn’t even bring himself to open his mouth.

For a moment, he felt like he was a tiny rabbit cornered by a huge tiger. Under the gaze of those icy cold eyes, he felt like he was striped naked in a snowy field.

Knowingly or unknowingly Hiro had became a tyrant in eyes of those players who had witnessed his ruthless behaviour, right now.

After finishing his sentence, Hiro then returned towards his position without saying anything, any further.

Players like Nijichi and few others who weren’t in good terms with Hiro didn’t seem like they approved Hiro’s approach.

Although they didn’t speak or retaliate, it was quite evident from the reaction those bunches were displaying that they were quite annoyed by Hiro’s behaviour.

Sure those bunches were being loud. But still he could have talked to them nicely, couldn’t he? There was absolutely no need for him to talk that harshly.

Despite being well aware about their hostile gazes, Hiro feigned ignorance as he kept a poker face. As if he wasn’t bothered by their hostile gazes at the slightest, he didn’t even bother to turn back to look at them.

Refusing to talk to anybody, Hiro stood straight at his place with a dead serious look on his face.

Shun on the other hand was neither angry nor terrified, infact right now he was quite perplexed. As much as he knew about Hiro, he found Hiro’s current behaviour extremely weird.

‘Seems like the opposing captain isn’t in good terms with most of his teammates’ captain of Jordan u17 national team guessed while observing the ongoing situation.

He could clearly feel the hostile gazes of Nijichi and few others shot towards Hiro.

Witnessing such unusual situation unfolding infront of his eyes, all of a sudden he started feeling quite light. As if a heavy burden was lifted off of his shoulder, his whole body felt light right now.

His once tensed brows now eased up and the corner of his lips slightly curled up, inturn letting out a subtle grin.

“Now let us all welcome the players with a big round of applause” commentator urged the crowd to greet the players as the players of both the team walked out of the aisle.

Clap!! Clap!! Clap!!

Walking out of the aisle, most players looked quite shocked. Their eyes wandering all over the stadium, they were having hard time believing upon seeing that many people present in the stand.

The number of spectators who were present in the stand had far outnumbered the expected number of spectators they were hoping to see in the field.

It would have been completely understandable to see that many people in the stand if they were playing in their home ground or playing against the host country. However right now they were neither playing in their home ground nor against the host nation.

“Woooooooooaaaaaahhhh!!” Unknowingly Shun who was walking right behind Hiro let out a murmur full of shock.

“Why are you acting like you’re shocked? Remember we played infront of even more spectators in the finals?” Indifferently mumbled Hiro while walking.

Heading towards the center of the pitch, players of both the team lined up to click pictures before starting the kickoff.

Despite it being only a group match, there were still a lot of cameras focused at them right now.

After clicking few pictures with their respective teammates, holding pennants of their respective national team, captains of both the team walked towards the center of the field for coin toss.

Ginger haired, about 180 cm tall, the referee who was going to referee their match today was German.

Even so regardless of the language barrier, he was communicating well with the captains of both the team. Not only did he speak in english, he also gestured while speaking, like showing heads in the coin when speaking head and pointing at the tails when speaking tails.

“Head or tails?” Asked the referee after pointing head and tails in the coin.

After that incident in the tunnel, captain of Jordan u17 national team had a complete turnover. His face no longer seemed tensed. Infact right now he was brimming with confidence.

His eyes no longer looked the same dull and listless. Right now his gazes were quite sharp, radiating a lively aura while his head no longer sunk to his chest like before in the tunnel.

And because of that same confidence, when the referee asked, he smugly pointed at Hiro; urging him to pick first.

Meeting his gaze full of confidence and glaring at his smug face, Hiro gritted his teeth as he furrowed his brows while glaring at the captain of Jordan national U17 team.

Although he looked quite pissed and restless from outside, however from inside Hiro was smiling. Inwardly he was enjoying the reaction of his opponent.

Still from outside, Hiro looked like he was boiling with rage.

‘I was right about him. He’s that type of player who could be provoked easily’ Ahmed Al-Sheikh mused inwardly as he confirmed his suspicion.

‘Enjoy the moment while it lasts’ mused Hiro inwardly while still glaring at Ahmed Al-Sheikh, ‘The more you think that you’ve figured about me, the more interesting it’ll be to see your reaction later, hehe..’

Even before the start of the game, a mental game was happening between the captain of both the team at this moment.

However while one side was under great misunderstanding, another side was deliberately causing the misunderstanding.

While one side was as shallow as water in a bucket, the other was as deep as the deepest part of the ocean.

“Heads…” Hiro grumbled as he pretended to bite the bait.

Hiro’s loud and deep voice, filled with anger was like a soothing music to Ahmed’s ears. The more Hiro growled, the more his mood was getting lifted.

Referee then flipped the coin high above his head. And as the coin left the hand of the referee, it spun vigorously for a while before falling down rapidly.

“Tails” spoke the referee as he announced the result of the coin toss.

Hearing the result, Hiro indignantly clicked his tongue in fury, ” Tch-”

After the coin toss, captain’s of both the team exchanged the pennants which they were carrying with each other, before joining their teammates.

While one walked with a glowing smile on his face another walked with a bitter face.

“Japan should have selected a better captain. This captain of Japan acts so childish. He can’t even control his emotions” spoke one of the player of Indian national team while looking at the screen.

Since every action in the field was being recorded and displayed at the big LED screen in the stadium, almost everybody present in the field could see the minute details of captains of both the team.

“That captain of Japan national team is prone to provocation” another player smiled deviously while commentating about Hiro.

A lot of people shared the same concerns about Hiro in the field.

A lot of players were musing at the sight of Hiro at this moment. The worries which they held a moment ago before the arrival of the players of Japan and Jordan, had been mitigated to a great extent.

Now even those players who were anxious a moment ago was brimming with confidence and joy.

The same players who were cursing their fate a moment ago for being placed in the same group as Japan were now thanking their fate for being placed in the same group as Japan.

“Seems like this Japanese national team isn’t as threatening as rumours made them sound” another player chuckled while saying such.

And soon even before the start of the match, almost every players of the team who were placed in the same group as Japan were smiling.

“Guy’s here me out” spoke Ahmed as he made it to his team.

As he spoke such, all of his teammates began to gather around him.

“Most of you should have figured out the personality of their captain right?” Sweeping his gaze across his teammates, Ahmed asked. .

Under his gaze, all of his teammates nodded their head. Even those thickheaded players who didn’t figure out, nodded their head without any hesitation; following the crowd.

Seeing the response of his teammates, Ahmed smiled as he continued, “Then today’s match, we can win as long as we exploit the weakness of their captain. Everybody try to provoke him as much as you can. Don’t hold yourself back from speaking shit. Try to get inside his head as much as you can.”

While speaking such, Ahmed revealed a sinister smile.
