The half-time break in the second quarter lasted for twelve minutes, with enough space for the players to recover their strength.

During this time, there will also be cheerleading teams from both sides on the court, performing performances to warm up the game.

Mike, who was on the sidelines, watched the lap dance of his cheerleading team and finished off a bunch of small desserts and a small bunch of bananas.

After walking back and forth for two times, Mike felt that most of his physical strength had recovered. I have to say that there are many hidden benefits of a strong body.

Looking at the other members of Melford's team, although there was still excitement in their eyes, the fatigue on their faces was obvious.

The fast-paced game just now took a lot of energy out of them. It was also difficult for them to recover during the halftime break.

As the two cheerleading teams left the field, the third quarter of the game officially started.

Before going on the field, Mike called the players together again, and everyone put their hands together.

One, two, three~

Melford~

Must win!

In the game later, pay attention to your running position, I will pass the ball to you depending on the situation...

When he went to midfield, Mike found George and Sam and gave them a set of vaccinations.

Mike had a hunch that in the third quarter of the game, the opposing team would definitely take measures to focus on themselves.

Sure enough, at the beginning of the third quarter, after the opponent scored two touchdowns, they used pocket battles on the defensive end to specifically target Mike's breakthrough.

The Austin team relaxed its defense against the other Melford players and formed a pocket shape, blocking all three routes that Mike could use to attack.

Mike, who was holding the rugby ball, was also a little lucky. Fortunately, he had given instructions to Sam before.

At this moment, Sam, who was unmarked, quietly walked to the sideline.

Mike's eyes lit up when he saw this, he squeezed his body appropriately and sent a high-altitude cross. The football drew a parabola and fell steadily into Sam's hands.

Sam, who was well prepared, rushed towards the opponent's end zone after catching the ball.

None of the Austin players expected that Mike could pass such a good ball at this time.

After all, in previous games, Mike rarely hit the ball.

In this low-probability situation, Austin's quarterback also reacted quickly. After leaving some people to continue to keep an eye on Mike, he led his teammates to chase Sam who was holding the ball.

In just a short time, Sam had already rushed a dozen yards.

Unfortunately, Sam is a powerful running back and speed is not his strong point.

When he was about to enter the opponent's end zone, he was thrown to the ground by an Austin player who was chasing him.

Well done, that's it... Coach George shouted loudly from the sidelines.

Although Sam was forced to stop, it also gave Melford one more possibility to score.

If Sam continues this performance, he will definitely be able to rush into the opponent's end zone and score a touchdown with just one more offense.

Sam, who got up again, realized this himself. There was no look of frustration on his face, but rather he was a little eager to try.

Beep——

Melford's second gear attack started, and Mike, who was holding the ball again, was once again surrounded by the opponent's pocket formation.

Sam~

Amid the shouts, Mike squeezed his position again and forced a good shot.

With Mike attracting most of the opponent's defense, Sam finally reached the end zone after receiving the ball and scored a touchdown.

46:47

Melford once again caught up with the score, and there was still a chance for a second additional score.

Sam, who had made a contribution to the team, did an excited backflip while holding the football. Then, he excitedly ran to Mike and gave him a high-five.

Sam had wanted to do this for a long time.

Seeing Sam's happy expression, Mike patted him on the shoulder and praised him in a timely manner: Well done~

The Melford players, with high morale, exerted all their strength in the second opportunity to score additional points, and worked together to score another touchdown.

48:47

Melford once again took the lead.

Next, the pace of the game is still fast. Mike also gave Sam good shots on the offensive end many times.

Relying on Mike's strong containment, the Melford team once suppressed the opponent's score in the first half of the third quarter.

However, towards the end of the third quarter, Austin's quarterback began to pay attention to Sam and allocated part of his strength to mark him.

Slowly, Sam's point gradually lost its effect.

When Mike passed the ball to Sam again, the opponent was pinned down by two Austin players before he could run a few yards.

Are you okay? Mike asked worriedly as he helped Sam up, who was sweating profusely.

It's okay~ Sam responded, wiping his sweat.

It can be seen that compared to Mike's high physical fitness, Sam is still far behind. Several high-intensity attacks caused him to lose most of his energy.

The players who played two consecutive quarters of fast-paced offense on the field were in a similar situation to Sam, and their physical strength had dropped significantly.

Mike realized this, and he knew that he would probably have to rely on himself for the next game.

After that, Melford Middle School's offensive end once again became Mike's solo attack.

Until the end of the third quarter, Mike once again relied on his strong personal strength to hold on to the score.

63:62

Melford was temporarily one point behind.

Except for the points, the overall situation of the Melford team is not very good. With the loss of physical strength, the fighting spirit of the Melford players also began to slowly dissipate.

Also, in order to hold on to the score, Mike also spent too much energy in the second half of the third quarter.

After all, Mike's physique is not yet invincible, and no matter how strong his personal ability is on the rugby field, he cannot withstand the continuous double-teaming of eleven opponents.

During the break in the third section, Mike was already too tired to sit there and didn't want to talk. The situation of other team members is not much better than him.

If you really think about it, the Melford team has never played such an intense game as today.

You are all good. No matter how the game goes today, I am proud of you... Coach George saw the performance of the players in his eyes. He did not want to put too much pressure on the players, so he also expressed relief at this time. Everyone.

In fact, reaching this point is the limit of the Melford football team.

I have to say that Austin, as a veteran team, is several levels better than Melford in terms of the physical fitness of the players and the tacit cooperation between the players.

At this moment, the situation on the field can still remain stable, which is entirely supported by Mike's strong personal strength.

The two-minute rest time passed quickly. Seeing that all the players had not yet recovered, Coach George decisively used up the last time-out opportunity so that the players could rest a little longer.

Another two minutes passed. Mike wiped the sweat from his forehead and led his teammates to prepare to play.

Mike... Coach George shouted.

What's wrong? Mike turned around holding his helmet.

It's nothing. Coach George originally wanted to persuade Mike to hold back a little. After all, people are easily injured when they are tired.

But after seeing Mike's firm eyes, Coach George swallowed what he was about to say. Finally, he clenched his fists and said, Come on~

I will. Mike smiled, put on his helmet, and walked into the arena.

The two teams once again formed their formations in midfield.

Beep——

Austin has the ball, and they have focused on teamwork from the beginning, and their physical strength is still very good.

Under the cover of the players, the opponent's quarterback easily scored two touchdowns again.

71:62

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Austin opened up the score.

Next, in Melford's offensive round, Austin still used double-team defense against Mike.

On Mike's side, he forced a breakout twice. After failing to get rid of his opponent, he set his sights on Little George in the opposite backcourt.

At this moment, there was only the opponent's safety guard beside George. Compared to Mike's tight defense, his side's offensive opportunities are very good.

So, Mike found a gap and sent a long pass with difficulty.

Little George, who noticed the football flying towards him, adjusted his position and was about to catch the ball.

However, he did not pay enough attention to the opponent's safety guard and was knocked away the moment he caught the ball.

This kind of situation should not happen in the game.

Beep——

Melford lost the opportunity to score in the first gear. After the football landed, it retreated to the midfield again.

It can be said that George's carelessness wasted a beautiful offensive opportunity.

And then, the Austin quarterback, who understood Mike's offensive intention, also jointly controlled George's offensive point.
