This should be the last chance of the first half. By how the referee kept glancing at his watch, everyone knew that the game was about to enter a break after this. However, that was also why, the moment Wataru Takagi managed to stop the ball on the sideline, the entire pitch went into a frenzy.
"SHIT! MOVE BACK! MOVE BACK!"
"TAKAAKI, DELAY!"
"DON'T LET HIM GO FURTHER! DO ANYTHING!"
No one knew who started it. Hell, the start might not be simultaneous, and everyone had a different starting line. However, before people knew it, a chaotic race toward Hakodate Nishi's half suddenly happened on the pitch, with all the players there running for their lives.
