Football System: The Greatest Attacker

CHAPTER 6. Star Card

With great pressure, Alfie finally chose to pass to Leo with full confidence in his team-mates, hoping Leo could score the equalizer in the last minute of the match.

However, the return pass given by Alfie turned out to be too weak and inaccurate, so the ball could be taken by the opposing defender with ease which broke a golden opportunity to score the equalizer.

"Based on a stupid assailant! Just pass you no becus!"

Leo resentfully snapped at Alfie who seemed to be desperate and disappointed by his baiting mistake.

Alfie with a lethargic face only received all the reproach from Leo and his teammates, he tried to lift his spirits and was determined to prove that mistakes were not the end of everything, and he is committed to training harder and giving better performances in the future to help the Regina High School team win.

Prit, prit, price.

Regina High School was defeated by Q-High School with a narrow score of 4-5.

***

At night, in her dark room Alfie seemed to ponder silently, recalling his match against the Q-High School. He also remembers all of Leo's hurtful words, making him determined to prove his worth, overcome criticism, and become a better player to support his team in the future.

Alfie, who at first was very indifferent to him who chose to become a soccer player, is now even more inspired and motivated to continue fighting, sharpening his skills, as well as being a soccer player, and prove that his perseverance can transform him into a player who is meaningful to his team and achieve success in the world of football.

Ding!

[Star Card: Filippo Inzaghi]

"System, what is a star card?"

[You have to keep running this week]

[At the end of the week, the system will automatically assess your determination in running and give you a star card]

[The greater your determination, the greater the stars you get. One star is the lowest card, while five star is the highest card]

"Well, now I'm going to keep running to be able to conquer this game of football. I'll prove to Leo that I can be a football player too!"

Alfie runs every day in his spare time, he diligently trains his physique to increase speed and endurance, as well as hone his technical skills, with a strong determination to get the highest star card and prove himself as a football player that is meaningful to his team and achieve success in the future.

Alfie earnestly strives to reach his best potential, learn from every mistake, and utilize the star cards he gets as motivation to keep growing, he said, he established himself as a dedicated and accomplished footballer for the Regina High School team and his dream in the world of football.

A week later.

[The Star Card you obtained was a 3-star]

"Well, only 3 stars? It's not enough!" thought Alfie with a new spirit emerging, he feels encouraged to continue to improve his abilities and will not be satisfied until he reaches the highest stars as proof of his determination and dedication in achieving success as a great soccer player.

***

Today is a match between Regina High School and P-High School.

Alfie is still played in this match, although his play in the previous week was very bad, because there was no other striker reserves available to replace him, he said, but he is determined to overcome his mistrust and prove that his previous mistake was not the end of everything, in hopes of making a meaningful contribution to the Regina High School team in this match against P-High School.

Seen Leo approached Alfie, he was the one who hated Alfie so much because of his game that was far from his level of play. He again delivers the insults as before, booing Alfie for his incompetence and doubting his contribution in the match, increasing the psychological pressure on Alfie before the match against the P-High School.

Leo said, "You are still a useless player, can never overcome failure and are always a burden to our team!" with a derogatory tone that shakes Alfie's confidence, Alfie tries to hold back his emotions and is determined to prove himself on the field despite being faced with such immense psychological pressure from Leo.

Priiite

The game starts between Regina High School and P-High School, with Alfie trying to cope with the psychological pressure of Leo, ready to prove his abilities and make a meaningful contribution to his team on the field, with the hope of achieving an important victory in this match.

At the beginning of the game, both teams are still in a slow tempo, they try to get to know each other's strategies and look for gaps in the opponent's defense, while still being careful not to concede goals.

Leo looked very good on the ball and set his team up, with his pace and precision, he tried to bring Regina High School to dominate the game and create dangerous chances to score.

And it didn't take long for Leo to score, he with admirable accuracy and agility, passed several opposing players and fired a hard shot that rattled the net, he said, leading Regina High School in the match.

"My game is international class, there's no way you can all take on some stupid local players!" leo said with pride in heart.

There was a P-High School player who was posing as an attacker staring at Leo with his sharp gaze, he grinned then muttered inwardly, "Turns out this Leo is a key player of Regina High School."

The attacker, named Carlos, sees Leo as a key player to take seriously, and is determined to put up maximum resistance to overcome Leo's impressive game to bring victory to his team, P-high School's.

"All defenses, just focus on Leo! Because only he can play football!" carlos shouted to all his defenders.

And sure enough, almost all of the defenders from P-High School looked after Leo so he could not freely develop his game, he said, but Carlos' presence as a sharp forward also managed to create pressure for the Regina High School defence, creating an increasingly exciting and fierce match.

Looks Leo who failed to pass one of the defenders and counter-attack, the ball leads to Carlos.

Carlos can score goals with agility and precision shots that trick the Regina High School goalkeeper, equalizing and bringing the match even more tense.

Ding!

Alfie opened the System.
