"Yes! Good job, everyone!"
"Come on, Jun! This is your best performance ever!"
"Usami, you damn miracle boy! That pass to Kenji is magical!"
"Hey, hey! Don't praise Kenji too much, his head is getting bigger!"
Right as the players entered the locker room, the atmosphere was quite festive on Hakodate Nishi's side. Everyone cheered and laughed, celebrating their amazing performance today. It was so strange to have this smooth game in the national phase, but at least, this was enough to boost their confidence.
"National? Just like that?! Haha!" Fujinaga laughed cockily.
Kumiko just shook her head in exasperation. Still, she let her players go crazy first, knowing that some of them had to vent out their bubbling emotions first before she went into a serious matter.
