100 Coach's discussion
After the end of the match, coach Tanaka approached manager Nozomi with rather irritated look on his face to congratulate manager Nozomi for his team's victory over his own.
"Congratulations Nozomi." Coach Tanaka congratulated Nozomi while gritting his teeth.
"Thank you Tanaka. Like you said my team didn't concede three goals this time around. And I'm sure it's all because of your well wishes. So thank you very much Tanaka." Manager Nozomi replied with a smile on his face.
Listening to Nozomi's words, Coach Tanaka's mouth twitched a little. And even though he was on the verge of exploding, he kept his cool and replied with a pretentious smile on his face, "It's all because of your players. So please don't give me the credit for your teams victory."
Maintaining his pretentious smile, he then began to rummage his mind to think of some excuses to walk away.
"Ahh right!! I remembered that I needed to discuss something with our principal today. So I'll take my leave first." Nervously saying such, Coach Tanaka turned around and walked away in a hurry, without looking back.
"But it's Sunday today." Manager Nozomi mumbled dumbfoundedly.
But Coach Tanaka didn't reply anything and simply kept on walking away while pretending he didn't hear anything at all.

Later in the evening of that same day, at around 4:30 PM Hiro and his friends were seen walking towards the stadium of Kawasaki Frontale dressed in black and blue jersey.
Infront of them, a lot of people dressed in the jersey of Kawasaki Frontale club were also gathered around the Kawasaki Todoroki Stadium, smiling and singing while carrying the banners of the club.
Another batch of people who were dressed in red and blue jersey were also gathered around the Kawasaki Todoroki Stadium.
The people dressed in red and blue jersey were the fans of FC Tokyo.
And all those people were rushing towards the Kawasaki Todoroki Stadium to witness the match between Kawasaki Frontale club and FC Tokyo.
They were gathered there to show their support for their respective teams.
Because of the friendly match which took place during daytime, the coaches had exempted all the players of U-15 from evening training to give them some time to recuperate from the fatigue they suffered during the match.
While some players stayed in the dorm, some went outside. And Hiro and his friends were among those players who decided to go out.
Impressed by Hiro's performance during the friendly match, manager Nozomi had gifted him a ticket for the match between Kawasaki Frontale and FC Tokyo which was going to take place later in the evening at 5 o'clock.
However since he didn't want to alone, he requested manager Nozomi to provide him with three more tickets for his friends. Manager Nozomi who was in a very good mood agreed to his request and provided him with three more tickets.
Making use of the ticket provided by manager Nozomi, Hiro decided to go and watch the match between Kawasaki Frontale club and FC Tokyo also popularly known as Tamagawa clasico with his friends.
Sounding all excited, Yuya who was a die hard fan of Kawasaki Frontale club spoke while walking towards the stadium, "Mark my words Leandro Damiao's gonna be the man of the match for today's match. And he's gonna score another goal today."
The player whom Yuya was mentioning about was a player of Brazilian origin. And at that 21/22 season, he was in a phenomenal form. Scoring a record breaking 15 goals, he was dominating the top scorer list of J-1 league.
Previously playing for clubs like Santos, International, Real Betis, Flamengo and many more, he was a talented player of Brazilian origin.
"Yeah he's great. But don't forget about Reo Hatate. I'm sure he's gonna show us another brilliant performance today. His speed, his passing and his work rate. It's like muah!!" While excitedly praising one of the player of Kawasaki Frontale, Shunta made a kissing gesture.
"They are both great player. But mark my words Kaoru Mitoma's gonna be one of the best player in the world within few years." Shun who had been following Mitoma's progress since some years joined Yuya and Shunta's conversation by bringing the name of Mitoma.
"Mitoma!! He was indeed one of the impressive player in previous year. And he did earn himself a transfer to a premier league team. But isn't he loaned to Union SG this season?" Yuya intoned while recalling things about Mitoma.
At the season 20/21, Mitoma was honoured as one of the best player in the league and at 21/22 season he was bought by Brighton for a measly amount of 3 million pounds.
After that he was loaned for the entirety of 21/22 season to Union SG.
After bringing the topic of Mitoma, since their beliefs contradicted with each other, they then began to argue with each other.
No one willing to back down, each and every single one of them were adamant about their opinions. And because of that unwillingness to back down, the argument was stretching even further.
Hiro who was also present there was observing them arguing with each other, without saying anything.
Since he knew about the future, he didn't feel lile joining in on the argument.
Unable to come to a truce, Yuya then decided to ask for Hiro's opinion.
"Okay!! Okay!! Then let's ask Hiro's opinion." Yuya suggested while turning his gaze towards Hiro.
"Let's do that." The two of them nodded their head and agreed to his suggestion.
"Hiro!! Do you think that Mitoma's gonna become one of the best player in the world within few years?" Yuya asked in a serious tone with his gaze fixated at Hiro.
Without any sort if hesitation Hiro replied, "Yes!!"
Hearing Hiro's words, Shun's face lit up all of a sudden and a wide smile formed on his face. He then spoke while sounding all excited, "See I told you."
Yuya and Shunta both of their face darkened as they sulked their head after hearing Hiro's opinion.
Both of then mumbled while sounding somewhat disappointed, "How can you be so sure of it Hiro?"
Showing no changes in his facial expression, Hiro then replied with a straight face, "Because I can see the future."
believing his words.

"Hahaha.... Why do you all look so serious. It was a joke. A joke." Saying such Hiro burst into laughter.
His words left all of them speechless. Their eyes wide open and their mouth agape, they were believing his words.
"Hahaha.... Why do you all look so serious. It was a joke. A joke." Saying such Hiro burst into laughter.
"That was a joke!! Damn!! But after watching you play. If you tell me that it's your second time in life. I would have even believed it." Yuya mumbled while heaving a sigh of relief.
"Right!!" The other two standing beside expressed their agreement.

At an office at the same time when Hiro and his friends were heading to Kawasaki Todoroki Stadium, manager Nozomi and manager Makoto were sitting opposite to each other at an office room.
Consisting of an immaculate table, few chairs, a whiteboard, a flower pot and few stationaries inside the drawer of the table, the office room was neat and clean.
"Brother he's too talented to play in U-15" Nozomi spoke while looking at his brother.
Understanding the meaning behind his brother's sentence, manager Makoto spoke, "But he's still only 12. We can't promote him."
"He'll turn 13 next year brother. We need to promote him to U-18 team. If we want to win the Takamado premier league then we need to promote him brother. Brother he's too talented for his age." Nozomi tried to reason with his brother.
After hearing Nozomi's response, Makoto began to ponder.
"Brother!! We need to use his talent. We can't let him rot at U-15. He's way above their level. If not for the age requirement to play at professional level, I'd have even suggested him to the senior team." Nozomi continued.
However still after hearing so much from his brother, Makoto kept on pondering. Since he couldn't make decisions carelessly, he was hesitant to decide right away.
Finally after thinking for a while, Makoto opened his mouth, "But will he be alright against guy's who'll be like 4, 5 years older than him?"
Makoto mumbled with a concerned expression on his face.
He too wanted to promote Hiro to the U-18 team, however he was also afraid of injuring Hiro.
"I know that you're about him brother. But we still have more than 6 months left for the league to start. So in the meantime if we work on his physicality then I'm sure that we can prepare him to play against those tougher and stronger than him." Nozomi intoned.
"Brother he's meant for the world. I can see a world class player in him. So instead of holding him back we should motivate him and push him so that he can fulfill his potential." Nozomi added.
After hearing Nozomi's words, Makoto rose from his seat. He then started to walk away from the table.
Witnessing Makoto's unusual behaviour, Nozomi exasperated, " Brother!! Where are you going?"
"Didn't you say that we should motivate him and help him improve?"
"I did! But how is you walking away without saying anything's gonna help him improve?" Asked Nozomi looking somewhat dumbfounded. contemporary romance
"I was going to fetch Eric's number. Since he's his agent, we'd need to discuss with him before we can make any decisions." Replied Makoto while towards the closet.
