Amateur Old Man, Enjoy Reborn Football Life (Booked)

The next day.

The kick-off time for the match with Uvetos U-18 was approaching.

I'm in the final exercise before the game now.

On the stadium's lawn pitch, both teams were up on passes and shoots.

"Finally, against you, Hyoma..."

In the middle of such team practice, I was excited by myself.

On the far opposite goal, I can see you practicing leopard. The time has finally come to confront him directly.

It would be stranger not to be excited.

"Hmm? With the number nine Japanese over there, do you know him, Mr. Courta?

"Ah, Mr. Julian."

Lilian noticed the atmosphere and called out.

As you can see from all around me, I would have been excited.

"Yes! I was a former teammate when I was in Japan, and I'm an amazing player, and you're that No. 9 leopard!

Well done. You listened to me, Mr. Julian.

I'm just saying here, Hyoma, how amazing you are.

He says he's a talented man, but he works greedily for victory.

Especially the ability of the Japanese to score away, I boast like me that I was no match either

"Well, Courta, the player you weren't against? That's dangerous, he..."

Listen to me, Mr. Julian's expression changes. With a sharp gaze, I look far away at you, leopard.

Mr. Yulian is a defensive DF, and you, Hyoma, are the FW of an enemy attack.

You'll be a direct opponent during the game.

"I see. That sounds pretty awesome. That's the U-18 of Juvetos under the sky, you're wearing number 9."

Mr. Lillian appreciated you, too, Hyoma.

He sees himself as the biggest danger figure on the other team.

(Oh! Don't be recognized by that Julian Vasmeyer. I knew it was awesome, Mr. Hyoma!

Hyoma is recognized for you, and I'm happy for myself.

Danger to enemy players is not supposed to happen. But I want you to take a big look at it all today.

"Mr. Courta, Uvetos is a tough opponent. But I'm not the one you can't win at the moment. Let's do our best."

"Yes, Mr. Julian!

It's time for the game to start, so the practice is over.

All right, I'll do my best.

(Hmm? But “so far"...?)

For some reason, Mr. Julian's words caught my heart.

I tried to ask him in person, but that gaze was directed at the bench in Uvetos. It feels like I'm looking for someone.

Maybe a player I know of Mr. Julian is in Uvetos U-18?

(You know what? Anyway, I'll do everything I can to fight you, Leopard!

The last time I really confronted him was about two years ago last year...... it will be since a serious one-on-one battle.

I've been growing ever since. [M]

I want to give you all the power you have right now and surprise you, Leopard.

If it's about the UCL Young League, I have a stamina where I can play full 90 minutes. Let's do everything we can to fly it from the first half.

"All right!"

Thus the battle against former teammates was to raise the curtain.

◇

It had been 45 minutes since the kick-off.

It was a fierce battle in the first half, but a full time.

It's halftime and each team moves to the locker room.

"No, the first half of the fight was hilarious!

I was excited to be alone in the locker room.

So far the score is one-on-one and the same.

Juvetos was a powerful enemy, and we, F.S.V. Young, are fighting hard.

"And you grew up, leopard, you were amazing!

Think back to your play in the first half of Hyoma.

He also flew all he could from the beginning.

It's an overwhelming breakthrough that has torn the F.S.V. defense apart so many times.

So far, Mr. Julian and I have fought well and kept it down at one point. Had it not been for it, the disparity would have been open.

"But Hyoma, you're going to be raising more gear in the second half..."

Hyoma, your seriousness felt like there was one more step.

Again, he was growing more than a year ago. I would have made an unimaginable effort in Italy.

Anyway, I look forward to the second half. I'm more excited about direct confrontation than about winning and losing like this.

Eh heh.

"Hey, Coata. You're struggling, and you seem a lot happier?

"That, Elena? You were in Italy, weren't you?

There was someone in my locker room who talked to me like that.

I am Elena, a special advisor to this club. You were supposed to be in Germany, why are you here?

"At work, I came to support you. And what's the matter, Coata? More excited than usual?

"Hehe...... well done, you listened! Actually..."

In order to convey this excitement and emotion, I decided to teach Elena how awesome you are, Hyoma.

I'll explain my history with him and everything I've been able to do.

It's entitled "Legend of Leopard Sawamura and Friendship Coata”.

"Was that number nine, your teammate?

"Yeah, that's right, Elena!

Elena, who was watching the first half of the game from halfway through, figured out how awesome you are, Hyoma.

"It's about you, it's about number nine... and there are some amazing players in Japan."

"I'm not a big deal, because that leopard you are really awesome!

It is not in a bad mood for former companions to be praised.

Especially since you are the most respected leopard, I want you to be recognized by many.

"As always, it's a straight line when it comes to football, Courta. Friends are good, by the way, but do you have a plan that can be reversed in the second half?

Oh, well.

It wasn't if I was in love with you forever, Hyoma.

Now that we're one-on-one, we're on the same page, so we have to win in the second half.

"Hmmm. I think I'll be fine around there...... I guess! Okay, I'll be there."

I left Elena with that and left the locker room. It's time to start the second half, so move to the pitch early.

And now that I'm in a state of excitement, I wanted to feel the stadium air a little faster.

◇

"All right, good luck in the second half... to win..."

I came out on a lawn pitch where no one else is yet. Take a deep breath.

Calm your mind and imagine a scenario of reversal in the second half.

Indeed, Uvetos U-18 is a formidable enemy. But we also have considerably increased the overall strength of our own F.S.V. Young.

"If we keep this up, we should be able to win three to two in the end..."

This was an image in my head.

Indeed, Hyoma, you are growing more than before.

But this one had a reliable defense, headed by Mr. Julian.

I had also discovered the weaknesses of the other team's defenses. There was a good chance you could win.

All right, I can do this. Let's do our best in the second half!

Are you a Japanese friend of the leopard?

"What...!?"

It is then.

From behind no one was supposed to be there, he was suddenly called out.

Suddenly, I'm so surprised that my heart pops out of my mouth.

"Oh, did I surprise you?

'Yes, no, it's okay...... er, are you from Juvetos?

It was the Italians in Uvetos uniforms who had spoken in Italian.

He's pretty tall, but he's still young in the face. Does that mean you're from Uvetos U-18?

But such a person shouldn't have been on the enemy bench in the first half.

Sounds like I know about you, Hyoma, but who is it?

'Hmmm...... I was looking forward to Atashi, though, because that leopard admired him. I knew you seemed like a funny kid, you?

'Er... what are you talking about?

The other guy was a little strange. He's looking at my whole body like he's observing.

He's got a neat face, but he's a bit of an Onenese tone.

(Hmm? That? This guy... somewhere...?

The first upset cooled down and gradually the normal mind returned. I notice that.

I feel like I've seen the face of this strange man.

But where?

Yes, that was, only in the last life...

Kota, are you okay?

"Ah, Mr. Julian."

It is then. Someone else came.

Now my teammate. Mr. Lillian came running over.

Are you okay, Coata? Didn't this guy do something weird?

'Ah, yes. So far...'

Mr. Julian worried about me.

"Hey, Julian. Long time no see. Besides, it sounds awful to say" this guy, "doesn't it? Even though they're best friends?

"You can't be alarmed, Leonardo."

Leonardo doesn't behave like anyone else? Call me Leo like you used to, Julian. '

Apparently, you two are familiar with each other.

But if you're Julian, it seems you're not comfortable with Leonardo.

I've never seen Mr. Lillian so upset.

'By the way, Leonardo... being here means you're not going to be in the second half of the fight?

"Your answer, Julian. I had no choice but to register my name for U-18, but if I watched the first half from the audience, my cock would get excited... '

Mr. Leonardo puts out his tongue with Peroli, and I'm going to look at my face.

'See you later, then. Kitten.'

With an invincible grin, he walks away with such leftovers.

From your interaction with Mr. Julian, I figured that guy was a Uvetos U-18 player, so should we?

"Um... Mr. Julian. That guy...... do you know Mr. Leonardo?

I'm just calm down, and I give a voice to Mr. Julian.

I really can't remember who Mr. Leonardo is, and I really wanted to know.

"Mr. Courta, he was a teammate when I was studying in Italy..."

Mr. Yulian said he had been studying for only one year in elementary school, on the Junior Team in Uvetos.

At the same age at that time, Mr. Leonardo said he was particularly close.

"Leo is a little different with that personality. But it's definitely real when it comes to football. Anyway, I'm at the top of Uvetos now."

"What... What's the top of Uvetos, no way?

"Oh, yeah, Mr. Coata. Leo, one of Juvetos's military players, who is still singling out the lead this season after winning two Serie A. I never expected to be in this downstairs U-18 game..."

"What ⁉ Serie A's... that Juvetos regular... I mean, he..."

I remember everything.

The person's full name was Leonardo Ricci.

He was slightly seventeen years old and made his debut in one army in the big club of Uvetos.

He then dominates numerous big titles with overwhelming techniques and creative passes.

He was a world-class superplayer with the alias "Your Royal Son of the Rose”, nothing unknown in his previous life.

"No way that Leonardo Ricci..."

I could not have predicted that such a heavenly man would have called out.

That's why I couldn't remember.

The feeling of a meeher football geek was too strong, causing memory problems.

(But that Leonardo Ricci is talking about you, Hyoma?

In the first tone, I felt that Mr. Leonardo attached special importance to you.

What does that have to do with anything between those two?

What has happened in the past year that I don't know about as a teammate of Juvetos?

I'm really curious, Moya Moya doesn't disappear from my head.

"Anyway, Mr. Coata, this is a bad situation. Be prepared for the second half."

◇

An hour later.

Mr. Julian's prophecy was misguided.

We, F.S.V. Young, defeated one-on-three.

Leonardo Ricci appeared from the second half.

Before that overwhelming force, I was perfectly contained.

"No... no..."

But there was something more shocking than losing.

"Hyoma, your... that move..."

Leonardo Ricci was drawing on your powers, Hyoma.

"I've never seen such a leopard play style before..."

I've never been able to pull off my path before, Hyoma, the power of all your talents.

That's what Leonardo Ricci's path was all about.

Dozens of times more shocking to me than losing a game.

"My bond with you..."

In my head and in front of me, I've been covered in dark fog.

Thus reunion with former friends closed the curtain with the worst possible result.
