The decision was made in a heartbeat.
At first, Mamoru wanted to bend the ball to the far post normally, as the angle also supported him to do so. However, after pushing the ball slightly closer to the penalty arc, his eyes caught Higo had already made a move toward that side, so the boy changed his mind in a snap.
'If this is still not enough to get us the goal, I don't know what else I could do. So, please go! Let this fucking in!'
Thud!
Instead of a sophisticated curly ball that everyone expected, Mamoru did the complete opposite thing here. He kicked the ball to the near post with his balance getting thrown off instantly, forcing him to fall with his butt first. As for the shot, the awkward stance made the power not that impressive, and it didn't even float or roll that fast.
