Another 173: Surgical defense

If Wakabayashi's field shaping can influence the players near the penalty area... His teammates or
opponents depending if it's defensive of offensive...

I can influence both opponents and teammates at the same time... Giving me complete control of
the middle of the field...

And unlike him, I'm not stuck in the same position... I can move a little to influence other areas as well!

I can't be everywhere... But with my perfect knowledge of data, and my perfect influence over
everyone, I can manipulate the odds in our favor...

I can influence the opponents into attacking the way I want, even make them win some
confrontations, to give them a false sense of security...

... Then influence the correct teammate into defending in the best possible way!

But it's far from being flawless... After all even if a 80 to 20 odd is in our favor... It isn't 100%.

They'd still have a chance to win... If it wasn't for my plan...!

BREMEN YOUTH IS COMPLETELY DOMINATING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD, HOWEVER, THANKS TO WAKABAYASHI'S DIRECTIVES...


HAMBURG YOUTH IS MANAGING TO PREVENT THEM FROM SHOOTING INSIDE OF THE PENALTY AREA! COMBINED WITH WAKABAYASHI'S PERFECT DEFENSE AGAINST SHOTS FROM OUTSIDE OF THE PENALTY AREA, THEIR DEFENSE IS FLAWLESS!


BUT NO MATTER WHAT, HAMBURG YOUTH CAN'T SET THE PACE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD... THEY'RE EVENTUALLY RELYING ON METZER AGAIN BUT...

Two more...

... Liver blow!

... STILL MARKED BY SCHESTER, METZER'S BALL KEEP SEEMS USELESS AGAINST BREMEN'S COMPUTER! SCHESTER EFFICIENTLY MARKED METZER IN LEAGUE MATCHES AS WELL BUT... YOU COULD SAY HE'S EVEN MORE RUTHLESS HERE!

Perfect... Just one more, and it'll be over...

SCHESTER SENT ONCE AGAIN A PINPOINT CENTERING TOWARDS MARGUS, JUST A SMALL DISTANCE AWAY FROM THE PENALTY AREA, PROBABLY TO TRICK WAKABAYASHI... BUT THE LATTER DIDN'T COME OUT OF HIS GOAL!


THIS TIME HOWEVER, MARGUS IS USING POSTPLAY! THE OTHER FORWARD OF BREMEN SLIPPED THROUGH HAMBURG'S DEFENSE IN THE PENALTY AREA!


AFTER CONTROLLING THE BALL, HE'S SHOOTING! A ONE TRAP SHOT...


... GOING POWERFULLY TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE GOAL! IS WAKABAYASHI...


NO, HE ISN'T DEFEATED! MAGNIFICENT DIVE AND SUPER TWO-HANDS CATCH! EVEN FROM INSIDE THE PENALTY AREA... MAYBE ONLY MARGUS' NUCLEAR WARHEAD CAN SCORE FROM INSIDE THE PENALTY AREA!


HAMBURG YOUTH IS ONCE AGAIN COUNTERATTACKING WITH METZER... HE'S TRYING TO ESCAPE FROM SCHESTER, BUT THE LATTER IS CHASING HIM EVERYWHERE HE GOES!

That's it! The last one...!!

The most difficult one... Spleen blow!!

AND AS EXPECTED, SCHESTER IS STEALING THE BALL! AHHH, BUT... WHAT'S UP WITH METZER? HE'S FALLING...

Surgical defense... Successful!
