'Shit, Teme! You just added more jobs for me!' Higo gritted his teeth, moving slightly to the right side while also keeping his eyes on the ball in the air.
He saw this scene already in his head, and yet, Higo was unsure whether he could get it. After all, while the first shot was not that powerful, after getting blocked by Makino's knee, the ball soared so high, moving more like a lob straight to the top bins. For a short goalkeeper like him, this was definitely his biggest nightmare.
'Fuck, what is the use of knowing where the ball would go if I couldn't stop it?' He scowled. 'No, stay calm, just keep eyes on the ball and mind my timing… Mind my timing… Now!'
The moment he thought the ball was within his reach, Higo leaped to the back, left hand extending far to reach the ball before it could cross the goal line. His attempt was proven to be useful, though, as the boy could feel the ball in his hand. With a little flick, he was able to send it back to the pitch again.
Brugh!
