This was probably Kawabe's fifth attempt in this game, and that was quite a lot for a winger like him. The boy was probably the most frustrated one about his lack of goal, especially when he was so close to that promised land so many times today.
However, this shot was different. Even when his foot touched the ball, the boy had already had a good feeling about it, feeling that everything was perfect.
He hit the right spot, and the power he put into it was also good, not too strong that it would negate the curl but also not too weak to the point that the goalkeeper would catch it easily. This was the best shot he had launched today, and the boy was ready to celebrate the goal even before he heard the sound of the ball hitting the net.
'Come on! This is it!' He prayed inwardly, looking at the ball with a bead of sweat on his forehead.
