See You Tonight

Chapter 124: The Last Days

After the equalizer goal that Tomi scored earlier, now the game back more exciting. Both teams have started to go all-out in attack and defense. They gave everything they had for this match. They don't want to regret it later.

Time is still going on and the second half is still 7 minutes away. Calvin seemed to have waved the sign had asked to be replaced. I saw him immediately prepare on the sidelines to make a change of players.

Right now, my legs feel better. My energy was also replenished. Now it's my turn to give everything I have for this championship-defining match 3.

"We see, the captain of the 10-7 class looks to enter the field again to replace one of the players who have been seen to run out of steam" said commentator 1.

"It's true, man. Whether the return of the captain will bring victory to his team, or vice versa. Let's see it together" commented commentator 2.

"But this time the ball has re-rolled over the field of play. Players from the 10-7 class now look to be building an attack. We see, the captain who just came back in was carrying the ball calmly. He was still looking for his colleagues who have a lot of free space" said commentator 1.

"Wohoooo but a very accurate and clean tackle from one of the players 12 IPS 4 managed to snatch the ball from the foot of the captain. The ball has now changed ownership" commented 2.

"Yap the ball which is now under the control of the players 12 IPS 4 was immediately dribbled back towards the goal 10-7. A quick counter-attack is this going to produce a goal?" commentator 1.

"Jebrettt. A hard shot was fired by Reza's brother but unfortunately the ball still flew thinly over the crossbar 10-7. The score is still as strong as 1-1" said commentator 2.

"Almost 12 IPS 4 led the way. Luckily Reza's shot was still not met the target" said commentator 1.

"Let's focus" cried Aji.

Now Ruben again kicked the ball from his goal line to Renaldi. Renaldi calmly carried the ball towards the middle of the field.

Luckily Reza's shot was still too high. If the kick had been a goal, I would have felt very guilty because it started from my mistake to lose the ball when we were attacking earlier.

Every player from 12 IPS 4 now shadows every player from our team. There is no one who is not overshadowed. The ball is still stuck in the middle field which is controlled by Renaldi.

Renaldi is now trying to pass the player who is facing him. While the other players were still moving around in search of empty space, but everywhere we went, the other enemy players kept shadowing us.

Jebrett. Renaldi suddenly immediately kick directly into the goal. Unfortunately, the kick is still thin on the left side of the goal.

"Nice Di, stay a little bit longer," said Aji.

We went back to the defensive position again. We have to play with discipline this time if we don't want to miss the goal in the final minutes of the game.

These two legs of mine feel like they're numb. The tiredness that had disappeared, now came again. I can't even kick a ball anymore.

Tomi now looks ready to do a free kick that he took himself. In front of him has now lined up 2 people forming a posse.

Tom looks so focused right now. While Aji and I were standing near the mouth of the goal to welcome the ball in case of a crash in the face of the goal.

Prittt. The referee has now blown his whistle. That's a sign that Tomi has been allowed to take the free kick.

"Well, we see, Tomi's brother seems to have retreated... And... Yep... Very keraaaassss kick.... And Gollllllll. Wow wow wow wow wow, again Tomi brother scored a very beautiful goal. Is there a high-class attacker at this school again? That was obviously an amazing kick. The score was now turned into 2-1 for a 10-7 lead," shouted the commentator 1 welcome a free kick goal from Tomi just now.

"A very hard kick, a very directional kick, a very measured kick. Truly a very promising player in the future" commented 2.

Tomi who scored the goal was immediately running towards the children of class 10-7 who were watching on the sidelines and celebrating the goal with them. We players who are still on the pitch also immediately follow him to celebrate the very beautiful goal.

This is also the first time I've seen Tomi celebrate his goal so much. Usually, when he scores, he doesn't react. He immediately returned to his post to prepare to resume the game. But this time it was different. He looks so emotional. He looks so carried away by the euphoric atmosphere of the festive festival.

We players hugged each other at the same time. We were so late in the celebration of Tomi's goal that felt as the decisive goal of the victory. Because it was so late, we almost forgot that the game was not over. There are still a few more moments until time is completely up.

The referee warned us to immediately return to the position to continue the match. We went straight back to our position to continue the game.

Prittt's. The match resumed. Now players from the 12th class IPS 4 immediately take a hard kick from the middle of the field shortly after they restarted the game as Kak Taufik did in the semi-final match.

The hard kick went straight towards Ruben. Fortunately, Ruben can dispel the hard kick so that our goal is still safe. Ruben's ball then rolled off the field of play. 12 IPS 4 also get a corner kick.

The corner kick this time will probably be the last chance for them to equalise. Instead, this is our last defence before this game is over and we will officially get the third-place finish.

My footsteps are getting heavier now. I also no longer have the energy to duel one-on-one with opponents. Right now, I'm just standing on the goal line just in case the ball suddenly goes straight to this corner.
