96 A Fateful Showdown Part 2

Can't shake him off?

Still a boy, Fàbregas' competitive spirit rose within. He forcefully shoved backwards a little, hoping to create a little distance that would allow him to move. He did not expect his opponent to remain motionless. It was as if he had struck a huge stone wall, and the rebounded force almost propelled him forward. The stumbling Fàbregas suddenly had an idea.

He staggered forward and knocked the ball ahead, chasing after it. Then, when he felt that pressure slightly ease, he immediately made a feint. He made Wood think that he was going to change his direction to the left, but he quickly moved the football to the right, and turned around at the same time!

The inexperienced Wood was indeed fooled. When he saw Fàbregas' upper body moved to the left, he shifted his focus accordingly. And then he realized that his opponent had fled to the other side!

Has he broken through?
