The pass itself wasn't that good. It even slowed down a little due to the rare pile of snow that was stuck on the pitch. However, Usami still managed to control it, pushing the ball forward before hitting his accelerator, adding more speed to himself.
"Shit! It is that boy!"
"Get on guard! He has the acceleration and that dribble!"
"Just back down and wait! Slow him down!"
As expected from a powerhouse like Shimizu Higashi High, even their defense was top-notch. They managed to coordinate themselves quite fast, reacting properly according to the situation. Instead of just trying to kill the ball, they decided to hold back, waiting for the others to come back.
