Finally, the day of the match arrived.
Putting on his favorite jersey, he arrived at the venue alongside his parents. The stadium was buzzing with the cheers of the excited fans and the air around the stadium was electric with excitement.
As they approached the venue, Kota's excitement grew. The crowd was a sea of team colors, with people of all ages sporting jerseys of their favorite players.
But he was the only one dressed in a youth jersey. However, it didn't make much difference since both the jerseys for the senior team and the youth team were almost identical.
And if not for the sponsor part, one could hardly differentiate those two.
"Mom, can we visit the merchandise store first?" Kota asked, pointing eagerly at a stall selling the club's gear.
Though he already had Hiro's jersey, still he wanted to get his hands on those of the senior team instead of the youth team.
His mother smiled warmly and nodded, "Sure, let's go."
