"Shit! Another one from a close distance?!" Higo couldn't help but curse when he saw where the foul happened. "This is going to be troublesome…"
Yeah, the foul was just slightly outside of the box, even inside the penalty arc. It was just 20 meters from the goal, and the angle was also perfect for any free-kick taker to execute it directly. This was definitely not the situation he wanted to see right now.
"Sorry, Chibi, we have to rely on you one more time." Makino came to express his apology.
"If you want to say sorry, don't try to do any reckless foul in a dangerous area again. This is going to give me a headache, you know?" Higo rubbed his forehead while also taking a bottle of water he had hidden beside the goal post. "Anyway, tell Fujinaga to restrain himself from any direct contact around the box. His tendency for pushing too much will be the end of us, I swear!"
