The referee was hesitant for a second, wondering if he had to give a talk to Hakodate Nishi's captain and head coach first. However, before he could do that, the fourth referee had already given him a warning to start the game, and in panic, he finally blew the whistle.
FWEEE!
The whistle was also the sign to start the second half. Both Kuroki and Hiroshi, who stood on the center line, passed the ball quickly, before starting to rush to the opponent's half without hesitation. Not just them, but the twins and Usami were also doing the same, putting at least five players to attack Esashi's side.
"Don't panic, everyone! Be careful!" One of the Esashi's defenders, the one with the jersey number four, shouted on the back, commanding his teammates to make a move. "Don't worry, just keep your eyes on them and clear the ball as far away as possible!"
