Amu Hinamori (Wales) vs. Yui Yuigahama (Slovakia)
Bordeaux, France
Matmut Atlantique Stadium…
Wales and Slovakia, two debutants…
They seemed wanna make some dream like Amu and Yui want.
But when Chris Coleman needed more time to see how Amu talented she is; with Ján Kozák, he had a lot of worry over Slovak team, and also, Yui herself…
Because…
Well, let's watch…
National anthems…
SLOVAKIA
Nad Tatrou sa blýska
(There is lightning over the Tatras
Hromy divo bijú
Thunders loudly sound
Zastavme ich, bratia
Let us stop them, brothers
Veď sa ony stratia
After all they will disappear
Slováci ožijú
The Slovaks will revive
To Slovensko naše
That Slovakia of ours
Posiaľ tvrdo spalo
Had been sleeping by now
Ale blesky hromu
But the thunder's lightnings
Vzbudzujú ho k tomu
Are rousing the land
Aby sa prebralo
to wake it up)
WALES
Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi,
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri;
Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra mad,
Dros ryddid collasant eu gwaed.
Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad.
Tra môr yn fur i'r bur hoff bau,
O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.
(The land of my fathers is dear to me,
Country of poets and singers, celebrities indeed:
Its warring defenders, so gallant and brave,
For freedom their life's blood they gave
country!, country!, faithful I am to my country!
While seas secure
This land so pure,
O may our old language endure.)
Really, Wales and Slovakia had been in here, only one could pass. Only this, nothing more. Wales must fight and Wales must win! Slovakia must fight and Slovakia must win!
And… Norwegian referee, Svein Oddvar Moen, had allowed the match to start.
BEGAN! Now, Slovakia took charge. They wanted to win by any costs! Coach Kozák yelled: "Come on! Onward! Fight till we got nothing!" Same as Coleman.
Marek Hamšík, the Slovakian "Mohican" had… made a speedy running! Yes he was, he was running…
"CHANCE FOR MAREK!"
And yes, he… he had beaten the Welsh goalkeeper Danny Ward…
BUT NO GOAL! Welsh defender had stopped it… he kicked out to the pitch. Then Slovakia got a corner kick…
Amu had a bit of stress…
"Really?"
And in the deep of fear about it, suddenly…
…
…
…
"Jump, Amu, Jump!"
Ran's voice! The Guardian of Amu! She turned Amu into a cheerleader. As for Chris Coleman, he was asking:
"How does Amu get?"
"We don't know, Coach. But I guess she is doing… something to cheer us."
"Really?" He looked as he saw… at 3', Amu became cheerleader. She cheered the spirits for both Welsh players and Welsh fans.
"GO, DRAGONS, GO! GO, DRAGONS, GO! GOOOOOOOO RED DRAGONS!"
Red Dragons is Wales' nickname. And of course, Gareth Bale did not forget to use this. He told his teammates: "ONWARD, DRAGONS!"
Then Slovak team had to stand up and fought against the massive Welsh attacks…
Yui, she didn't have any ideas yet…
While Yui was really silent, Amu was making noise!
And now, in 9', a freekick for Wales against Slovakia. Gareth Bale was with the ball…
And…
"God, protect those mighty Dragons…"
He shot…
GOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL! 1-0 for Wales! Gareth Bale! The star of Real Madrid had blown up! 1-0 for Wales. Amu had done very well. At 10', Wales 1-0 Slovakia!
But the fight wasn't ended.
And in here, from the goal by Gareth Bale, Wales totally controlled the field. In there, continued clash.
Aaron Ramsey sent ball to teammates… oh, not pass the goalkeeper of Slovakia.
Then, Joe Allen!
Amu had made pressures to Yui. Yui realized that she had to do something, so she asked Coach Kozák…
"May I help you?"
"Why?"
"You are losing, maybe I can help rewrite it."
"How smart are you?"
"A bit… but I will do the best."
On the Welsh side, Aaron Ramsey continued to make counterattack. But they failed. Amu Hinamori, after cheering madly to Wales, changed to Miki's art advance. Miki is her second Guardian.
As Miki, she helped Coleman switched the tactics. At the same place, but in a harder situation, Yui decided to help Slovakia based on her plan. She would think a lot for the Slovak fighters.
Then, Amu continued to call help from Miki…
As for Wales…
"Jonathan Williams!"
But not successful. Then, Slovakia's Vladimír Weiss tried to encounter Ward, but he failed. Next was… Dušan Švento!
Finally Dušan gave Slovakia a corner kick. But no change.
It was 44'.
Then, Gareth Bale again! OHHHHH he almost headed to another goal! But he failed. Still 1-0 only…
Yui, meanwhile, also did another business, was to cook something that manage to add the strength of Slovakian team. She believed that could break the deadlock…
First half ended 1-0.
…
…
…
…
…
Second half started.
Amu and Yui looked again. Now, for the second half.
As well as Chris Coleman, he used Miki's pencil to write something. Might be…
Now, Wales and Slovakia continued to clash madnessly. In the late 50', Yui revealed her first talent, truly… talent…
Singing skills. To aid this, she decided to call…
Hanon Hosho!
"Come here, Hanon!"
Finally, Hanon Hosho appeared. At the time as Slovakia was led 0-1, she decided to help Yui at 54'. Now, Slovakia, they finally…
First! VLADIMÍR WEISS! HE PASSED TO MAK! DANNY WARD HAD TO PROVE HIS GOALKEEPING SKILLS! NO GOAL BUT THIS IS A THREAT TO WALES!
Then Gareth Bale tried to make a sudden pass, but nothing change.
Amu, however, she felt something… bad. Only Miki and Ran weren't enough, might be?
But nothing could be sure…
Hold on, was…
ONDREJ DUDA! ROBERT MAK SENT TO DUDA… AND…
GOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL! 1-1! Ondrej Duda scored! 1-1! Wales 1-1 Slovakia! Definitely Yui with Hanon had saved Slovakia… 61'…
Well, how did they say? HAPPY!
At the stadium, Amu had to call support from Rei Hino! Rei… Hino…
"Please, Rei… COME!"
…
REI HINO! She did come to watch. The scene from the clash, something proved that Amu and Rei could break the deadlock. 1-1…
Now, Slovakia took advantages. Pekarik, Mak and even Hamšík almost forced Wales conceding another goal. But nothing change… Wales must replace two others…
In here, Rei Hino and Amu Hinamori, using Guardians, began…
"Now, Sailor Mars… FIRE BREAK!"
The cheer and the fire, combined. Double singing strike met Dragons Blade!
Wales 1-1 Slovakia.
Even Aaron Ramsey also rose calling for help. Definitely… and then, Ramsey… he headed! OH! ALMOST SCORE! BUT NOTHING CHANGE…
And Slovakia, double strike from singing, challenging the fire from Rei Hino and Amu Hinamori. Many Welsh players tried to take down Slovak team…
But nothing…
At 80'… while all two still were in mad…
…
OH! NOW,… HOLD HOLD, AARON RAMSEY, AFTER WEISS GOT A YELLOW, SLOVAKS HAD FORGOTTEN THAT WALES TEAM WAS ATTACKING. HE SENT BALL…
…HE LOST HIS STEP, BUT… HAL ROBSON-KANU! HE SHOT! HIS SHOT WAS TOO… NICE…
…WAIT! WAIT! GOALKEEPER OF SLOVAKIA KOZÁČIK… HE MISS HIS MOVES, BALL…
…
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL! 2-1 for Wales. Wales 2-1 Slovakia! Chris Coleman jumped happily. Hal Robson-Kanu scored 2-1! Now Wales gained back.
As Yui was still amazed, she had to call another supports:
"Go out now, Umi!"
Umi Sonoda! At the same way, Amu called Haruhi Suzumiya and they continued.
Time Dragons, controlling fire, faced on triple singing strike! Yui needed to win. She didn't allow herself to lose…
ADAM NEMEC!
OHHHHH THE SPOT SAVED WALES! It was really not a well-performance of Danny Ward, but truly, Wales played bravely…
Slovakia didn't want to lose again.
Yui, Hanon and Umi vs. Amu, Rei and Haruhi, they tried to gain control. But Haruhi's time control broke many hopes for Slovakia. As for Wales, the song from Yui also stopped Welsh attacks.
In stalemate like this, truly, no one could have more chance…
And…
And…
And…
OVER! 2-1 FOR WALES! WALES WON 2-1 SLOVAKIA! A famous victory for Wales… first win ever for Wales in an UEFA Euro tournament!
Slovakia played well, as Yui showed that she truly supported Slovakia, but sadly, Amu, had won. Lack of talents had been major problem for Yui. Would Yui learn something before meeting Eli's Russia?
Who know. With Amu, she could be confidence, before meeting England…
Amu Hinamori (Wales) 2-1 Yui Yuigahama (Slovakia)
