Football: The Gold Generation!
Beginning of match
The time of the match arrived. Both teams started to enter the field. They walked along with the noisy sound of the audience, so boisterous and annoying, so noisy and did not want to hear Eril. Because many of those who support Trisatya High School in this match.
Chandra and Wilson watched in the front stands very close to the field. Chandra himself focused his gaze on Al, honestly since the game when last, Chandra so put some attention on Al, the goalkeeper who was able to block some fairly strong kick of his colleagues.
"Hm let's see what you can do right now." Chandra pulls out her smirk smile. He was curious about the progress of SMA 70. How far have they grown so far? The same, or there are changes that make the desire to play higher.
Al saw Chandra up there. Al returned Chandra's smile with a confident smile. Al also did not want to bother to take his eyes off, he was not even afraid of Chandra.
Looking at each other, it seemed that these two young men could not wait to rematch their match. Especially Al, he wanted to avenge his defeat when, especially Chandra, he also still wanted to slaughter the goalie he met at that time. But before facing Wismaraja, Al and his friends must pass through the big wall of Trisatya High School first.
Al turned his gaze from Chandra towards the Trisatya bench. He saw the coach of Trisatya High School who was rumored to be an alumni of the school there, and just graduated 2 years ago.
Dimas, handsome 20-year-old. Youth who are predicted to rival Chandra, can even be more powerful than Chandra just a different generation. That seems to be true, considering he trained his school at a fairly young age.
Dimas was talking to one of the members.
"Bang Dim's. When do I play?" Ask one of Trisatya's players who was on the bench.
"Look out Den. You'll play in the last 10 minutes of the second half." Sahut Dimas's. The young man who spoke to Dimas was named Dendy. He is the only 3rd grader who still survives in Trisatya football.
"It's only 10 minutes." Dendy complained. His face pouted, of course Dendy wanted to play with a longer time. 10 minutes playing the ball, can it be satisfied?
"Remember your heart disease Den. Doctor says you play ball 5 minutes at most. But I'll add another 5 minutes because I know you love the ball. Even your friends have stopped in excursion and you're more focused on the exam and you're still holding on." Dimas turned his eyes away from Dendy, he did not want to be caught staring at the boy with a look of pity and pity, because Dendy hated being stared at like that.
Dendy was diagnosed with heart disease when she was in 10th grade. He was advised by doctors to stop playing football. But his love for football was so great, he did not want his illness to make him part with football.
"Talk about my illness. The more severe the disease is thought to be." Dendy pursed her lips, puffed her cheeks slightly, her gaze she turned away not wanting to look at Dimas.
Piqued.
Although it was dangerous for him, even though Dendy knew what Dimas said was for his own good, he still wanted to play football.
......................
The match between Trisatya High School against SMA 70 begins. Trisatya High School takes a kick off the first round.
SMA 70 sets up a bus parking strategy, all players other than the attackers defend. Even Eril and Riski who were in the wings helped to survive if needed.
Bus parking is a strategy that is often used to defend, teams that use a bus parking strategy generally prioritize defense rather than attack, they will counter attack when there is a gap or there is a blunder made by the opposing team. Usually the players use long passes, or commonly known as longball.
Usually, this bus parking strategy is used by non-seeded teams, when against seeded teams.
Chandra who was watching the match in the stands judged that SMA 70 was very naive.
"What kind of game is that? Where's your swift attack against us." Chandra raises next to his eyebrows, he holds his chin, quite astonished by the thought of SMA 70.
He thinks the best defense is to attack.
Chandra was a little tired of seeing such a match, he got a little sleepy.
"Park the fucking bus. It's very hard to get past their defense." Said Bagas who is a Trisatya High School striker. He was annoyed, that strong defense was draining his emotions and patience.
"A defense as strong as anything must still be a gap, we can definitely break through it." Sahut Andi while wiping the sweat on his forehead.
Bagas and Andi are pillars of Trisatya High School. Although not as prominent as Chandra and Wilson, but these two 11th-grade players are the hope of Trisatya High School on the field.
It's a boring game.
Not only Chandra feels that way, but it seems that the spectators on the field also feel the same way, bored with the rhythm of the SMA 70 game. Within 43 minutes the SMA 70 had only twice counter-attacked, but the counter-attack could still be broken by High School defender Trisatya.
Until in the end
High School player Trisatya frustrated, even Andi confused want to pass the ball to whom because no one can pass the SMA 70 defender. Difficult to penetrate the defense SMA 70.
Doni who was near Andi realized that, he stole the ball from Andi's feet while he was off guard.
Doni's left foot reached the ball right in front of Andi's right foot. Doni really took advantage of Andi's negligence to take the ball and counter-attack.
Not like the previous attack. This time all SMA 70 players advanced to attack leaving Al who was on the defensive line. They actually bet in the last two minutes of this first half.
The audience who was silent suddenly crowded see the moment SMA 70.
Doni dribbles past Trisatya High School players with his dribley skills. Doni has this skill since Junior High, only he always loses his prestige with Chandra as a midfielder.
"Don oper here." Look at Doni who is close to the penalty box. Riski was looking for a good position to receive a pass from Doni. He did not hesitate to ask for bait from Doni.
"Well do Riski Ronaldo's spectacular goal." Doni draws his smile, he makes a bored bait to Riski who is ready to shoot.
Riski managed to receive a mature breakthrough bait from Doni. He is facing off one on one with goalkeeper Trisatya.
Riski shot towards the bottom left corner of the goal.
*goal
Goalkeeper could not reach shootingan from Riski.
Shouts of spectators echoed in the field. After playing bus parking, finally SMA 70 managed to score at the end of the first half. The beautiful game of Doni plus good positioning of Riski makes SMA 70 superior to its current opponent.
Riski celebrated in front of Ferza's stands. He covered both of his ears using his hands in front of Ferza. Don't forget, the griny smile she showed was blatant.
Seeing that Ferza was just silent, not showing any expression.
Ridwan warns about his celebrity Riski who seems to mock Ferza.
"Oi've been there fast to your position."
Not long after Bagas kicked the kick off a long whistle from the referee sounded the first half sign was over.
