Chapter 874: Long-lost Fog Valley
This is to appease the South African audience.
after all,
With three strong players, Fuji Shusuke, Yanagi Renji, and Kirihara Akaya, competing in doubles,
South Africa can still win at least two games today.
Thus,
The final result will not be too bad.
like this,
Arrange a match between Esmond Colvin and Lin Nan.
Actually, it’s not a bad thing.
This will not only allow Esmond Colvin to fully display his talents,
Enjoy the fun of the game.
And a wonderful match can also restore some of his reputation,
At the same time, he can also gain a corresponding increase in his value.
"Next is the singles three match.
Please invite both players to come on stage. "
As the broadcast sounded,
The battle list of both sides popped up on the big screen.
Germany played Frankenstein.
The South African team was represented by Algernon Matthews.
"Wow,
He is the captain of our South African team!"
After seeing the roster,
The South African audience was immediately excited.
"The person opposite is just a junior high school student.
There is no way our South African team will lose this game! "
Someone said confidently.
however,
Some people hold different opinions:
“Not necessarily.
The junior high school students currently playing for the Swiss team,
But none of them are weak,
Didn’t they already have two wins?”
"Don't forget the French team yesterday,
All the main players were defeated by the German team.
At that time, the German team was composed entirely of middle school students! "
This sentence caused a commotion among the crowd.
People started talking about it.
Shocked and unbelievable at the French team's crushing defeat.
"You must win.
If you lose again, I won't watch it anymore.
It’s so disgusting!”
Someone shouted angrily,
Obviously very unhappy with the outcome of the game.
"Don't say you don't watch.
I also left.
I really can’t accept such a failure!”
Another person echoed,
There was disappointment and helplessness in his tone.
however,
Some people have different opinions:
"What if I win?
Don't forget that Lin Nan hasn't played yet.
Even if I win both singles 2 and 3,
It is impossible to defeat Lin Nan alone."
On the field,
It should have been a lively cheering.
But now it has become extremely rare.
There was only a few voices of support.
It seems a bit desolate.
Although there are still three games to go,
But in the hearts of South Africans,
The game seemed doomed to fail.
Lin Nan's existence,
Like a nail that cannot be moved,
Nailed firmly on the road to victory.
"Beep--"
The referee blew the whistle to start the game.
It drew people's attention back to the game.
Algernon Matthews and Frankenstein have reached their limit.
Get ready for this much-anticipated showdown.
"Captain of South Africa?"
Frankenstein looked at his opponent with a warlike look on his face.
He secretly estimated the other party's strength in his heart.
This game was not easy for him.
Because Lin Nan also said that the other party's strength should not be underestimated.
but,
He wasn't going to give up easily.
Just do your best.
There is nothing to regret.
boom--!
With a crisp sound, Algernon Matthews on the opposite side quickly served a powerful serve, and the ball rushed past like lightning, heading straight for Frankenstein's court.
There really isn't much to watch in this game.
Although Frankenstein has the blessing of BUFF, his strength is slightly stronger than that of ordinary players, and he himself is also a 13-star strength.
However, compared with Tezuka and others, his strength pales in comparison, and there is a huge gap between the two.
Especially in high-level competitions like the World Cup, the speed of evolution of Tezuka and others is simply beyond imagination.
Not long after the game started, the sound of the ball hitting the court was heard, and the two sides engaged in a brief confrontation.
However, after only a short while, Algernon Matthews could clearly sense the difference in strength between Frankenstein and Fuji and others.
Just like what the South African coach said before, the remaining two players can easily win even if they play casually.
After realizing this, Algernon Matthews decided not to try again and instead launched his own scoring spree.
His shots became more and more fierce, and each swing was as powerful as thunder, making it difficult for Frankenstein to cope with it.
boom!
With a crisp impact, Algernon Matthews successfully kicked the ball into the goal, and the score instantly became 1:0!
There was a slight cheer from the audience, but it soon quieted down.
Immediately afterwards, there was another bang!
Algernon Matthews once again demonstrated his excellent skills and the score became 2:0!
However, the audience's reaction remained cold, with only a few people applauding and congratulating.
boom!
boom!
boom!
Algernon Matthews scored continuously and the score was constantly changed, 3:0!
4: 0!
5: 0!
Every goal was accompanied by a dull thud, as if mocking the South African team's weakness.
Finally, when the game was nearly half an hour in, Frankenstein scored a goal for the South African team and the score became 1:5.
But this did not change the course of the game, and the German team still firmly controlled the situation.
As time went by, the game came to an end, with only the last round left.
South Africa were just one step away from their first victory, but the crowd seemed uninterested.
The outcome of this game was no longer in suspense. The German team was clearly letting the game go on purpose, whether it was to save their own face or because they simply couldn't field any stronger players in the lineup. The fact that they were giving away points was too obvious to ignore.
Even when South Africa eventually won the match, it was hard for the audience to feel a real sense of achievement.
Such a victory seems to be just a form rather than a reflection of strength.
The whole game was unusually quiet.
Except for a few scattered applause from a small number of audience members,
Most of the others are doing their own thing.
No focus on the game at all.
Although the South African coach could not see the specific situation on the field due to vision problems,
But he was still able to keenly perceive the indifference and apathy of the spectators on the sidelines.
"Ugh……"
The South African coach sighed helplessly.
An indescribable frustration welled up in my heart.
After two doubles matches,
The morale of the entire South African team has been completely crushed.
On the field,
Frankenstein gasped.
His eyes widened,
Staring at Algernon Matthews across from me,
His eyes were full of helplessness and despair.
The gap in strength is just too great.
Frankenstein knew this very well.
How he wished he could be like Fuji and others.
He has the strength to compete with the third-year high school players!
however,
Talent is something that is innate.
It is not something that can be easily changed through acquired efforts.
Although Lin Nan provided them with prescriptions to improve their physical fitness,
But this did not play a big role in improving strength.
The last round,
It was Algernon Matthews' turn to serve.
There was a loud bang.
The ball came at me like a cannonball.
With super strong impact.
Frankenstein tried his best to fight back.
But no matter how he struggled,
Couldn't hit the ball back.
finally,
He could only watch Algernon Matthews "shit" on his head.
There is no way to fight back.
boom!
With a crisp sound of hitting the ball, Algernon Matthews successfully hit the ball over the net and landed on the opponent's court.
The referee shouted:
"Algernon Matthews scores, the score is 15:0!"
The audience suddenly burst into warm cheers.
Immediately afterwards, there was another bang!
Algernon Matthews exerted his strength again, and the ball flew across the net like lightning. The opposing players had no time to react and could only watch the ball fall to the ground.
The referee shouted again:
"Algernon Matthews scores, the score is 30:0!"
However, Algernon Matthews did not stop his pace, he continued to attack,
boom!
boom!
boom!
Every shot was accurate and the opposing players were completely suppressed by him. The score was quickly widened to 40:0!
Just when everyone thought that the game would end with Algernon Matthews's complete victory without any suspense, an accident happened.
Esmond Colvin suddenly broke out. His return ball was at a tricky angle and extremely fast speed, catching Algernon Matthews off guard. The score suddenly became 6:3.
Although Algernon Matthews won the game in the end, he was not in a relaxed mood.
Fortunately, I didn't get zero points in the end, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.
The two sides fought to a 1:2 score, and the game entered a white-hot stage.
"Humph, you're lucky to have met a piece of trash!"
Esmond Colvin taunted mercilessly as he stepped off the field.
When Algernon Matthews heard this, his anger was instantly ignited. He glared at Esmond Colvin and was about to refute.
But suddenly I remembered that the game was not over yet and I couldn't let a momentary impulse affect the overall situation.
So he gritted his teeth and swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Lin Nan stood on the sidelines and saw it all. He noticed Algernon Matthews's frustration and couldn't help but smile.
Speaking of which, Algernon Matthews of the South African team is really a big victim. He obviously has good strength, but he is suppressed by Esmond Colvin.
He has an excellent overall perspective.
Therefore, Esmond Colvin chose to tolerate and bow his head to the extremely violent Esmond Colvin.
He did not do this out of cowardice.
It was about ensuring Esmond Colvin could lead South Africa onto the world stage.
However, things did not go as planned, which is regrettable.
Esmond Colvin actually set his sights on him.
This ultimately made Algernon Matthews the biggest laughing stock of the entire U17s.
As the game came to an end, according to the tactical deployment of the South African coach,
Next it was Lorenzo Addis' turn to appear on stage.
It should be noted that Lorenzo Addis did not appear in the original book.
If Yanagi Renji hadn't collected relevant information in advance,
I'm afraid even Lin Nan knows nothing about this person.
It is understood that Lorenzo Addis is quite strong.
Although still young, he has already reached the third year of high school.
Its strength has reached an impressive 12 stars.
In this way, his strength should be second only to Esmond Colvin and Algernon Matthews.
Even better than Captain Algernon Matthews,
Of course, it's only slightly stronger.
After the game, Frankenstein walked off the field, sweating profusely.
With a wry smile on his face, he said to everyone:
"Sorry guys."
Following these words, the atmosphere on the scene became slightly solemn.
"Hey, you tried your best, you're just a vegetable."
Kirihara said this with a smug look on his face, as if his words could comfort anyone.
Frankenstein rolled his eyes and responded unhappily:
"Thank you for your comfort!"
Lin Nan turned his head, his eyes fell on Wu Gu, and said in a deep voice:
"Kiriya, this game is up to you, make him kneel down."
"it is good!"
Kiritani nodded without hesitation, his eyes revealing confidence and determination.
The rosters of both teams popped up on the big screen. The player for the German team was Wu Gu, and the player for the South African team was Lorenzo Addis. Both were senior high school students.
The same script and game situation seemed to be happening again, but this time, Kiritani was obviously much stronger than Frankenstein.
He not only has solid basic skills, but also masters some special skills.
After all, Kiritani is a man who is about to enter the professional field, and his strength should not be underestimated.
When the whistle sounded to signal the start of the game, the audience held their breath, looking forward to an exciting match.
Served by Kiritani!
He stood at the baseline, and after some adjustments and preparations, he suddenly threw the ball high into the sky.
He bent his knees and jumped, like an agile cheetah, and instantly flew into the air.
Then, the racket in his hand swept down like lightning, and with the force of thunder, it smashed hard into the rapidly falling tennis ball.
boom--!
With a loud bang, the ball rushed past like lightning, with unparalleled speed, like a meteor across the sky, and hit Lorenzo Addis directly in front of him.
The ball collided violently with the ground, making a crisp and harsh friction sound, as if announcing its power and speed to people.
This brief half-second pause is like the calm before the storm, making people hold their breath and wait for the next outbreak.
Sure enough, the ball seemed to be given life in an instant and rushed towards Lorenzo Addis's face at such a fast speed that people had no time to react.
This is a rapidly spinning ball!
Although it is not a super speed series, its power should not be underestimated.
The ball was spinning rapidly in the air like a gyroscope, with a strong centrifugal force, which made people worry for Lorenzo Addis.
And when the ball bounced, its speed not only did not slow down, but became even faster, like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, unstoppable.
Seeing this, Fuji said with a little surprise:
"Is Kiritani-senpai also able to do the spin?"
However, Lin Nan on the side shook his head and explained disapprovingly:
