It was just a spur-of-the-moment thing, and yet, Denji saw it. Amidst the crowded penalty box, where Yuji was trying to make a run to the left side and attracted the opponent's defenders even just for a moment, a space opened for Denji to take a direct shot.
The target was just a small spot on the top bins, and if he failed to aim at that, this would've just been a wasteful chance. There was definitely pressure on his shoulder right now.
However, Denji lived for this kind of moment. He didn't even hesitate, not showing any weakness. Before anyone could close down that spot for him, the boy hit the ball quite hard, using his laces to give a boost of power to it.
BAM!
The ball travelled like a bullet, piercing through the wind before slamming the back of the net violently. Hokkaido Science High's goalkeeper couldn't even move, too shocked by the sudden attack.
