#293 - Germany's fall
"Has the mighty German team fallen?!"
"The Japanese team is too strong, a 3:0 victory over Germany!"
"A dynasty is about to be overthrown!"
"As expected of the Child of God."
The audience suddenly erupted in an uproar.
For a moment, the audience hadn't reacted.
However, as the whistle blew signaling the end of the match.
The audience realized.
The Japanese team won this match!
Which also meant that the reigning champion German team, with nine consecutive victories, would stop at the semi-finals this year.
Instantly.
"Japanese team!"
"Japanese team!"
"Child of God!"
"Child of God!"
The cheers and applause from the entire stadium began to have a rhythm, with the entire venue shaking with each cheer.
The cheering lasted for nearly ten minutes.
Before gradually quieting down.
Also, at the same time as the cheers.
Both teams were doing the final handshake in front of the net.
"Japanese team..."
Bolk calmly said: "This year is the last time for me, if you want to compete again, it will be on the professional stage."
After speaking, he looked at Yukimura and Byodoin Hōō.
These two were considered by Bolk to be rivals.
However, Bolk, who was already a third-year high school student this year, could no longer participate in the U-17 World Cup.
Yukimura smiled faintly without saying a word.
Byodoin Hōō snorted coldly.
"Withdraw!"
With Mifune Nyūdō's command, the Japanese team withdrew their aura.
The semi-final match ended.
In just a few hours.
Australia received two shocking world news.
First, the Japanese team shut out the German team.
Second, the Spanish team shut out the American team.
Then.
Two hours after the news spread.
The whole world knew about the Japanese team's victory.
For a time, German team supporters could not accept this fact.
Tennis reporters immediately besieged the German U-17 rest area.
"Did something go wrong with the German team in this loss to the Japanese team?"
"During the match, did the German team ever think that your misjudgment led to Q.P's injury?"
"Q.P is a player that Germany has put a lot of effort into developing. Will this competition prevent him from competing in the future?"
"Bolk, as a professional player, why can't you defeat a middle school student? Does it mean he is stronger than you?"
Tennis reporters' questions came in droves, each question pointing to the most concerning issues in this match.
At this time, Bolk's face was ugly, but he still remained calm.
Originally, this kind of thing was supposed to be handled by Rettl, or even by dedicated personnel.
But Bolk was still standing here at this time.
Under the cameras and microphones, Bolk was silent for a while.
"In this competition, the German team had shortcomings in its performance."
Bolk calmly said: "But the Japanese team's growth exceeded our expectations."
"Last year, they opened the door to the world with the world-renowned Child of God."
"This year, they are facing the world's strong with the posture of the strong."
"The reason why our German team lost can only mean that the other party is stronger."
"Regarding Q.P, there will be a special press conference in a few days, that's all."
Silence.
All the tennis reporters even forgot to press the shutter for a moment.
The Japanese team is stronger than the German team!?
Doesn't that mean that the Japanese team will win the U-17 World Cup this year?
After all, even the German team, the nine-time champion, said so.
It's hard to make people doubt.
"So, does that mean that the German team's hard work is all because the Japanese team is stronger?"
At this time, a voice came from the group of tennis reporters.
Hearing this, all the tennis reporters immediately passed the topic up.
"That's right! Or is it that the German team's efforts this time are not as good as in previous years?"
"Or is it that training has slackened because of the nine consecutive victories?"
"That's right! Give us an explanation!"
Sharp questions appeared again, this time the tennis reporters seemed to have caught something, constantly asking questions.
"Japanese team!"
Bolk's voice became gloomy: "They also have to train hard every day!"
"Likewise, our German team has never slacked off!"
"Don't think of a match so simply!"
"There will be a formal press conference in a few days, dismiss!"
After speaking, Bolk returned to the rest area.
He knew that doing so was indeed inconsiderate.
But, if the time is allowed to ferment again, it is better to give them directional questions earlier and let them consider it.
In other words, this can only be regarded as a basic solution.
Bolk knew that the moment the German team failed, the world would be in turmoil.
Will make their position in the U-17 World Cup greatly discounted.
After all.
Many supporters came because of their champion status.
Now that the champion has fallen.
Things are far worse than Bolk thought.
Compared to the game, there is an even worse thing.
Q.P has been unconscious since being hospitalized.
This made Rettl unwilling to leave Q.P's side for a step.
For Rettl, Q.P is a treasure of the German team and even the world's tennis world.
The Q.P he cultivated since childhood was to make him a world-class player.
Also want to witness Q.P's growth.
It can even be said that Rettl is Q.P's half-father.
Now Q.P's fall has also caused the German copper wall and iron wall coach to fall.
This impact may affect the German team in a few years.
Bolk didn't want to see this kind of thing happen.
After these things.
It is the sponsors who support the German team.
After learning about the German team's failure this time, they have already begun to intend to withdraw their sponsorship.
Once all the sponsors withdraw their investment.
Then all the training conditions for the German team's players will be greatly weakened.
These things have now all fallen on Bolk.
At the same time.
While everyone was marveling at the fall of the German team.
At the same time, I was also surprised by the Spanish team's performance this year.
I didn't expect that Medano Le, who had not been in treatment for long, could enter the final of the U-17 World Cup so quickly when he returned to the arena.
Subsequently, tennis enthusiasts discovered.
This time, the Spanish team has reached the final with a record of all wins.
Even, in the game, they shut out their opponents with 6:0!
Shutout!
This is the world stage!
It is a gathering place for the strong from all over the world.
It can even be said that world-class powerhouses are everywhere.
Under such circumstances.
The Spanish team still shut out their opponents.
It shows how terrible its strength is.
Moreover.
Medano Le has not played once in these games.
It makes people guess even more that Medano Le's strength may have surpassed the Child of God at this time.
How will the Japanese team face such a swift beast.
