Chapter 282 Tactical meeting
Demanding answers, Kim Il-sung right now was extremely terrifying.
Still his oppressive aura had little to no effect on Park Seung-gyu. Just by looking at him, one could tell that he wasn't even fazed by Kim Il-sung's threatening tone.
However Kim Il-sung wasn't satisfied with Park Seung-gyu's response. It wasn't the answer he wanted to hear.
Thus even though his response managed to shut Kim Il-sung's mouth for a while, it still couldn't appease his anger.
Infact his response made him even more furious, "What the fuck are you talking about? Tell me the reason why you backed down"
"Because we had made a bet" Park Seung-gyu answered nonchalantly without any hesitation, "And remember you were also present there when making that bet and also don't forget that you had given the green light as well."
While he was speaking, suddenly Park Seung-gyu released a threatening aura as he squinched his eyes and coldly glared at Kim Il-sung, "Now don't pester me again and again with such trivial matters. Just do your best in the match against them if you want to redeem your lost pride"
Suddenly a cold sweat ran down his spine. His eyes which were glowing with indignance a moment ago now dulled with trepidation.
Kim Il-sung who was barking like a mad hound earlier couldn't even bring himself to open his mouth.
Although he wanted to rebuke, he couldn't bring himself to rebuke because he was very aware of Park Seung-gyu's influence on the team. He was there star player.
The player who wins the game for them. Falling in favour with him was like seeking his own doom.
Even though he was one of their core player, he wasn't the one with the most influence.
In every organisation whether someone likes it or not there'll always be a set hierarchy. And football which is a team sport isn't spared either. And most of the time, the star player who was trusted by both coach and fans would be the one at the top of the hierarchy.
And Park Seung-gyu who was their team's star player was literally untouchable.
Infront of him, Kim Il-sung's worth was little to nothing. And Kim Il-sung who was purely acting on his emotion a moment ago, right now was faced with the cruel reality.
Whether he likes it or not, he has to tuck his pride and accept the outcome.

In a brightly lit spacious room, many elderly men were seated comfortably with grim expression on their faces while a youth with black hair was scribbling something on a board.
Dark shadows of furniture placed inside the room and people present in the room was blending perfectly with the room.
And although the room was somewhat warm, the air around the room was rather heavy.
"So what I'm saying is that sir for us to win this final match, we need to pay special attention to Kim Il-sung and Park Seung-
gyu" Hiro spoke while pointing at the tactics board.
As he spoke such, those elderly men who were intently staring at him since a moment ago, their gazes became even more tensed as their expression stiffened.
Suddenly a man with clean shaven face who was sitting with his legs crossed, opened his mouth, "You are indeed right. Although Park Seung-gyu is their main man, Kim Il-sung is like their backbone. Not only is he good at controlling the flow of the game, he's also good at keeping hold of the ball and defending"
The man speaking right now was Kazan. Although he was maintaining his calm demeanor right now, his eyes were flickering with admiration.
Truth be told, he was quite impressed by Hiro's thorough analysis of the opposing team. Hiro's analysis was almost similar to his.
While many people would assume that Park Seung-gyu was the main man of the team because of his ability to score goals and disregard the presence of Kim Il-sung who remained hidden from the spotlight for most of the time.
Infact even Kim Il-sung hadn't realised his importance on the field.
Not only was he good at keeping hold of the ball and retaining the ball, he could also dictate the pace of the game to some extent.
However since he didn't involve directly for most part of the game, his presence would go unnoticed most of the time.
Coach Haruki's wrinkled forehead was like the waves of the ocean. Thinking deeply about Hiro's analysis, he solemnly nodded his head, "Indeed that kid is the pivot of South Korean team. If we allow him to act freely, we'll suffer great damage. And I'm sure that most of you have already realised that that kid Park Seung-gyu his finishing from inside the box is literally top notch. I've run some data on him and I found that he has an astronomical 96% finishing ratio in this whole tournament"
As he said this, a lot of coaches became slightly flustered. It was like this discovery was totally new to them. However still all of them nodded their head as they pretended to be aware of this fact.
"Indeed his finishing is good from inside the box. However from outside the box, he hasn't managed to score a lot."
"So as long as we stop this kid from advancing into the box, we can reduce our chances of loss by a lot" another coach suggested.
However his suggestion was quickly rejected as manager Haruki shook his head, partially rejecting this suggestion, "Stopping him on his track would definitely increase our chances of victory. However this kid, his sense of positioning is very good. So it's gonna be quite difficult to stop him"
The tactical meeting kept on progressing as everybody presented their ideas one after other.
Earlier Hiro had asked to be part of this tactical meeting. And the privilege of being the captain of his team allowed him to not only be part of the meeting but also allowed him to present his ideas.
And Hiro who was aware of Park Seung-gyu's wow-factor was determined to put a halt to the tyranny of Park Seung-gyu.
