Tennis: one step ahead

"I don't feel like we're wronged by losing, it's just ......."

Putting aside the narrowly defeated Irie Sotado, the strength of the ghost Jujiro and the Phoenix of Byodoin is obvious to all.

They won with dignity, how could the coach not afford to lose?

However, the French U-17 team was the

third-ranked team in the U-17 World Cup, but was defeated head-on by the neon U-17 team, which ranked 23rd.

This huge gap made it difficult for him to accept it for a while.

Admittedly, because of the format of the group stage, the strength of the French Under-17 team was dispersed.

But the Neon U-17 team was also divided.

If both sides concentrate their main forces and fight with all their might, the outcome is still unknown.

Luckily, France's Under-17 team won the other two group games.

Even if you lose to the Neon U-17 team, it will not affect the knockout stage.

Otherwise, it could set a record for the first group stage exit for the French U-17 team since participating in the U-17 World Cup.

When the time comes, they will become the biggest joke in the history of the French U-17 team.

"Don't worry too much, Coach. "

Although surprised by the super strength of the Phoenix of Byodoin, Camus is not as worried as the coach.

As a key member of the French Under-17 team, he has absolute confidence in the quality of his team.

The format of the group stage is more of a test of team strength.

To some extent, it limits the ceiling of the strong team, which is not conducive to its performance.

Something like being calculated and then capsizing in the gutter happens in almost every U-17 World Cup.

The knockout rounds and the following stages are the real tests of the team's hard power.

At that time, the strong teams will show their hideous colors one by one.

The strength of Byodoin Phoenix and Onijujiro may be very strong, but the rest of the Neon U-17 team may not be the same.

In the U-17 World Cup, you can't win by relying on the strength of one or two people.

"The French U-17 team is not afraid of any enemy. "

“......"

Camus's simple sentence has the effect of enlightenment.

The slightly gloomy atmosphere in the lounge was suddenly swept away.

The eyes of the French U-17 team gradually lit up, and the morale of the naked eye climbed.

Yes, they're the French Under-17 team.

Even the eight consecutive champions of the U-17 World Cup, the unshakable king of the German U-17 team, have never made them afraid, let alone other teams.

......

Inside the stadium.

Bang.

The game ended with a score of 6-1 and was won by Byodoin Phoenix. "

This is the end of the group stage between the Japanese team and the French team, and the score is 3-2. "

"Winner, Team Japan. "

The newly added pit on the wall announced the end of the first single.

There was no surprise that the confrontation between Byodoin Phoenix and Duke Watanabe was ultimately won by Byodoin Phoenix.

The difference in strength between the two is huge, and one move of light hitting the ball makes Duke Watanabe completely unable to parry.

The time of the seventh game is shorter than the previous six games.

"Neon. "

"Neon. "

"Neon. "

When the referee announced the result, the scene erupted into enthusiastic shouts, like a tsunami.

Whether it is the supporters of the Neon U-17

team or the supporters of the French U-17 team, they all express their respect for the victors at this moment.

The crowd is simple, and their greatest wish is to see a good game.

And in this game, they are undoubtedly very satisfied.

was forced into a desperate situation, and then caught up step by step, and finally achieved a shocking reversal.

The plot is

old-fashioned, but it doesn't matter, this old-fashioned plot is to liking and will never go out of style.

"Huh. "

Hiiragi Hakura smiled and got up to leave the audience.

The fiery and high-pitched atmosphere of the scene was extremely infectious, and even he was slightly affected.

It's a pity that Hiiragi is still young.

The next U-17 World Cup is his stage.

What

Hiiragi needs to do now is to concentrate on sharpening herself.

When the time comes, become the protagonist on the stage and gather thousands of lights in one.

......

Inside the stadium.

Byodoin Phoenix and Duke Watanabe greet each other at the net, then leave the arena and return to their team's lounge.

The French U-17 team lost the game, and it was inevitable that they were a little unhappy.

However, they have long been relieved and do not blame Duke Watanabe for losing the match.

It's not that Duke Watanabe doesn't want to win, it's that the strength of the Phoenix of Byodoin is too strong.

He, did his best.

At the same time, the other side.

In the lounge of the neon U-17 team, there is naturally a sea of excitement and joy.

After nine U-17 World Cup tournaments, they finally reached the top 16.

This is a breakthrough in the history of the team, and it is worth remembering.

Mifune immediately waved his hand, and all members of Xu Nihong's U-17 team relaxed for a long time.

The first is to celebrate, and the second is to express appreciation and affirmation for the efforts of Phoenix and others in Byodoin during this time.

......

Evening.

After dinner, Hiiragi Hakura put on her bag and went to the course where she usually practiced her skills.

With the group stage coming to an end, the U-17 World Cup has entered a brief quiet period.

Next, there is the draw for the knockout stage.

The draw for the group stage has nothing to do with Hiiragi Hakura.

Before the start of the knockout round, his life will be monotonous and regular.
