The next day, the sun rose in the early morning and the sun was exceptionally bright. It was a good weather to watch the game.
Everyone in the Neon team has already boarded the team bus and headed directly to the stadium to participate in today's quarter-finals against the Swiss team.
On the other side, in a fairly good hotel in Paris, Inoue Mamoru also got up early. He was extremely concerned about today's game. After all, if the Neon team wins the Swiss team today, then the Neon team will become the new team.
World BIG4.
Previously, the Neon team entered the quarterfinals of the World Cup. After Tennis Weekly published the news in its new issue, it caused a huge shock in Neon.
And if the Neon team wins today's game again and enters the semi-finals of the World Cup, then this will be more sensational news than entering the quarter-finals.
Therefore, as a reporter from Tennis Weekly in Paris, you will never miss the coverage of this hot news.
……
It was 8:30 in the morning, half an hour before the official start of the game, and everyone from the Neon Team had already gotten off the bus and arrived at the competition venue.
Different from the previous outdoor games, now that it has entered the quarter-finals, all teams will enter the indoor arena.
In today's game, there will be two quarter-finals. In addition to the Neon team against the Swiss team, there will also be a game between the German team and the Argentine team.
Because the German team is more popular than Neon and Switzerland, their games are arranged to be played in the main arena with 30,000 seats.
Therefore, this also resulted in the game between the Neon team and the Swiss team being held only in the auxiliary hall with 8,000 seats.
The game has not yet started, but the stands outside the stadium are almost full. Only the stands at both ends of the stadium are forcibly blocked by the organizing committee and spectators are not allowed to sit down.
This has also resulted in the stand that could originally accommodate 8,000 fans, but now only 5,500 people can enter.
As for why the two stands were blocked, although the organizing committee issued an announcement, it only stated that it was for the safety of fans.
But many spectators who have watched the Neon Team’s game know clearly that the organizing committee is guarding against Neon Team’s Kami No Shinichi.
After all, this guy has already destroyed several stands at both ends of the stadium.
At this time, the audience has almost all sat down, and everyone is looking towards the stadium, waiting for the players from the two teams to appear.
As the strongest dark horse of this World Cup, the match between the Neon team and the Swiss team has not even started yet, and fans outside the stadium are already talking about it.
Discussing who the winner of this game will be.
In the past, the audience would have thought without thinking that the Swiss team would win, but after the Neon team defeated the American team and the French team, the audience began to think that the showdown between Neon and Switzerland would be a 50-50 draw.<
/p>
Who wins or loses depends on the formation of both sides.
Tread...tread...
Waves of neat footsteps sounded, and the audience in the stands had quieted down. The protagonist of today's game has already begun to appear.
"Is it finally here?"
In the stands, the originally quiet audience became agitated again because of Inoue Mamoru's sudden voice. They looked at their favorite players and introduced them to the first-time audience around them.
Of course, the person mentioned the most by the audience is God Wu Xinyi.
Nine o'clock sharp...
Players from both sides were all in place, and the coaches handed over today's appearance list to the organizing committee, and the announcement in the auxiliary hall sounded on time at this moment.
"The following will be the quarter-finals of this World Cup. The Neon team will face the Swiss team. Players from both sides are invited to enter."
As the referee finished speaking, everyone in the player areas on both sides of the tunnel not far away stood up and walked onto the court.
Looking at this scene, Inoue Mamoru couldn't wait to take out his camera, pointed at the players on both sides and took a sharp photo, and the audience in the stands became more restless than before.
Today, most of the audience came to see Kanna Shinichi's extremely violent tennis, so after seeing Kanna leading the neon players onto the court, they couldn't help but cheer for Kanna.
"God has no faith..."
…
"Your Highness the Tyrant..."
…
Kanna didn't expect that the cheers for his own name would drown out the shouts for the names of two countries. This made him feel that Kanna Shinichi had truly become famous all over the world.
So Kanna smiled and waved to the audience who cheered his name.
Kanna's move immediately made the audience cheer for him even more sensational.
Looking at this scene, Atobe, who was walking behind Kanna, curled his lips in dissatisfaction and said softly: "This guy Kanna has stolen all the limelight..."
Maori beside him smiled and joked: "What, are you envious?"
"Humph!"
The first person who answered Maori was a cold snort from Atobe, who then replied with disdain: "I've never had any interest in this kind of publicity. I just think they are too noisy..."
No one believed what Atobe said. After all, who in the Neon team loves to be the most popular, it must be Atobe.
Soon, everyone had arrived in front of the net, and after briefly shaking hands and making entrance salutes, both parties began to look at each other carefully.
And Kanna is the one who has attracted the most attention from the Swiss team. After all, in today’s European tennis, he, Kanna Shinichi, is the most popular new tennis star.
After all, many professional players have never received a nickname, but this junior high school student already has two, one is called "Court Destroyer" and the other is called "Tennis Tyrant".
After a while, the etiquette was over, and the players from both sides walked back to the court. The big screen located high in the arena quickly lit up, and the broadcast sounded in the arena at this time.
"The following will be a doubles match between Neon Team Atobe Keigo and Akutsu Jin, against the Swiss Team Pieter Lambier and Hrastan Givaud."
"Atobe, Akutsu, come on!"
"You two, you have to take the lead for our neon team..."
As the sound of the broadcast ended, Kanna and Mori were in the player area cheering for the Hyokui who were about to take the field.
"Hmm!"
Facing the cheers from Kanna and Mori, Akutsu just nodded, but his eyes were full of confidence in winning this competition.
Compared to Akutsu, who had a calm expression, Atobe was obviously much more high-profile. He lifted his bangs on his forehead and said in a very confident tone: "I will win this game magnificently." p>
As Atobe finished speaking, the two of them walked slowly towards the court with their rackets in hand and confident faces.
On the other side, the Swiss team also walked out of two high school students, one by one, walking onto the court.
When the opponents of the match were announced on the radio, everyone in the Neon Team except Kanna and Mori had extremely serious expressions.
After all, they have a certain understanding of many players on the Swiss team through the introduction of the staff team.
The senior Jiwot is known as the most powerful doubles player in the Swiss team. He can cooperate at will according to the playing style of his teammates.
Another player, Lambir, who is in his first year of high school, is known as the tennis treasure of the Swiss team. He has multiple talents and is an extremely powerful comprehensive player. He not only has outstanding offensive ability, but also has good defensive ability.
In this game, Atobe and Akutsu faced very strong opponents, and this game was not easy to win.
……
On the court, both sides had finished shaking hands and guessing sides, and stood at their respective positions. At this time, the referee saw that the players were all in place, so he waved his hand and announced loudly:
"The first set begins with the Neon team taking the lead in serving."
On the court, as the referee's words fell, Atobe was already standing at the bottom line. This time, the Neon team was lucky and got the chance to serve first.
At this time, Atobe is also preparing to take the lead. In the first game of this game, he will serve the Neon team.
Pa…pa…
Atobe patted the tennis ball lightly, but his eyes were fixed on the opponent. After all, this was not a national competition, and he had to observe his opponent for a few seconds first.
After a moment, Atobu said softly: "Is there no blind spot? In this case, I will go all out from the beginning!"
With a thought in his mind, Atobu tightly grasped the tennis ball that bounced off the ground, and immediately threw the tennis ball high into the air.
Huh...
The next moment, Atobe leaned back to the extreme, as if a colorful light burst out from Atobe's eyes, and then his swinging posture that was familiar to everyone in Neon appeared directly in everyone's field of vision.
When the tennis ball fell to the best hitting position, Atobe could see the racket dancing in his hand and let out a soft drink:
"Tannhäuser serves..."
Bang...
There was a crackling sound of hitting the ball, and the tennis ball turned into a stream of light and suddenly hit the opposite half of the court.
Tread...tread...
Looking at the flying tennis ball, Ranbir, who was responsible for catching the ball in the backcourt, narrowed his eyes slightly, then quickened his steps and began to sprint forward. In just a moment, he was in front of the tennis ball.
Boom...
When the tennis ball landed on the ground, Ranbir had already raised his racket, preparing to hit back at the tennis ball that was about to bounce to the ground. But the next moment, a scene that surprised him happened. After the tennis ball landed on the ground, it only bounced slightly, and then almost stuck to the ground. Heading straight back, following Ranbir's feet, he slid directly out of the field.
呲呲…
The strength was exhausted and the tennis ball stopped rolling.
