Chapter 414: The Quidditch World Cup!!
With Ludo Bagman’s voice, seven blurry green figures flew towards the arena, all riding the latest version of the Firebolt, the best flying broomstick at the moment.
“Here is our referee today, Hassan Mustafa, the president of the highly supported International Quidditch Federation who flew from Egypt from far away!”
A short, lean wizard dressed in a pure gold robe that matched the color of the gymnasium, strode towards the arena.
The top of his head was completely bald, but the large beard was very thick, a silver whistle sticking out from under his beard, a large wooden box under one arm, and his flying broom under the other.
Toby, Harry, and they all watched with panoramic telescopes, and although they were in the best position now, they were too far away to see clearly with telescopes.
Referee Mustafa stepped onto his flying broomstick and kicked the wooden box away, and in an instant the four balls inside jumped into the air, bright red ghost flying balls, two black Bludgers, and the very small, winged golden snitch.
As Musta whistled, the players of the Bogaria team and the players of the Ayrland team all set off.
“Ah, he—he—he—they set off! This is Mallet! Troy! Moran! Dimitrov! Passed to Marlette again! Troy! Leflsky! Moran! ”
Bagman screamed and commented, and in today’s game 973, he also acted as a commentator.
However, it is really rare to be able to remember the names of so many people at once, if you change to other wizards, you don’t have this ability.
The game was very intense from the start, but it’s no wonder that it was the final of the Quidditch World Cup.
The speed of the players on both sides was unbelievable, and even the commentator Bagman only had time to name them.
The spectators in the entire stadium were also enthusiastic and shouted loudly from time to time, and even Toby, who had never been interested in Quidditch, was now infected by the warm atmosphere on the field.
“It’s a professional team!”
Toby lamented that although he was not interested in Quidditch, he still had a level of appreciation, whether it was the players of the Bogaria team or the players of the Ayland team, their level was much higher than that of the students at Hogwarts.
Know that Quidditch is also a team sport, and players and players need to cooperate with each other, otherwise even if there is a talented seeker on the team, it is impossible to win.
On the field, the Ayland team used the “Eagle Head Offensive Formation”, with three Ayland chasers speeding close together, Troy in the middle, and a little ahead of Malette and Moran, and the three approached the Bogaria team together.
Then, the Ayland team used the “Perskov tactic” again, only to see Troy pretend to rush up with the ghost flying ball, lead away the Baugaria team chaser Ivanova, and then throw the ball to Moran.
Volkov, one of the Baugalia’s hitters, struck the Bludger with a short stick in his hand and hit it towards Moran.
Moran shrank down, dodged the Bludger, threw the ghost flyball, and Leflski, who was hovering below, caught the ball.
“Troy scores!”
Bagman roared, and the audience cheered, shaking the gymnasium.
“10：0！ Ayrland leads! ”
“Snap! Syllable! Syllable!……”
Toby applauded, Ayland scored, of course he was happy, knowing that he had pressed Ayland to win, although he already knew the result, but who knows if there will be any surprises.
After all, whether it is divination or arithmetic divination, it is a very mysterious thing, but no one knows whether it will change in the future.
“Troy! Troy! Troy!……”
On the field, Eyland’s player Troy flew around the arena after scoring a goal, and the crowd supporting Airland cheered loudly, and some excited wizards even jumped up and down, waving their arms constantly.
The Elland goblins who were watching the game on the sideline rose into the air and formed the giant shiny clover again, while the Veelas opposite them looked at them with a gloomy face.
The Ayrland team chasers are of a superb standard, they work seamlessly and their movements are very coordinated, as if they can see each other’s minds.
However, within ten minutes, Aylland scored two more goals to change the original score to 30-0, causing the green-clad skitters on the field to scowl like a sea of fire
of cheers and cheers.
As the game went on, it became more intense and brutal.
Bogaria’s batsmen Volkov and Vokanov slammed the Bludger into the Airland chasers and tried to stop them from using some of their best attacks.
The Ayland players were broken up twice, and finally, Ivanov finally broke through the Ayrland line-up, dodged goalkeeper Ryan, and scored the first goal for the Bogaria team.
At the edge of the arena, the Veelas immediately began to dance and celebrate, causing many wizards in the audience to be confused once again and make some strange movements.
“Dimitrov! Leflsky! Dimitrov! Ivanova one oh my God! ”
Bagman shouted loudly in a loud voice, because the players in the arena were so fast that he could only shout their names and there was no time to say anything else.
At this moment, the wizards in the audience all held their breath and watched the two Seekers on the field, Krum and Linzi, who fell quickly among the chasers, very fast, as if jumping from an airplane, or without a parachute.
“Ah Yiyi, they’re going to fall to the ground!”
Hermione exclaimed holding the panoramic telescope.
On the field, in the last second, Bogaria’s Viktor Krum stopped his rapid dive, rose again, and flew away in a circle.
But Linzi, the Seeker of the Ayland team, was not so lucky, his skills were still inferior to Krum, and he did not stop at the last minute and fell heavily to the ground, which made the pro-Ayland spectators lament.
“The Seeker Krum of the Bogaria team still has some skills, and can fly again at such a close distance from the ground.”
Toby said with admiration, sure enough, there is no vain under the fame.
“Krum is fainting, Linzi that fool is deceived.”
Mr. Weasley complained that he was a supporter of the Ayland team.
“The game is suspended! A trained field doctor rushes into the arena to check on Aidan Linzi’s injuries. ”
Bagman, who was the narrator, shouted.
“This is Lansky’s feint – to pin down the dangerous Seeker, Krum did not see the Golden Snitch, he just wanted to make Linzi think he saw it, as a way to lure Linzi.”
“But Krum’s technique is quite good, which is not something that the average Seeker can do, and such a dangerous behavior can be accidentally thrown to the ground.”
Charlie of the Weasleys said that when he was at Hogwarts, he was also the captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team and knew a lot about Quidditch.
On the field, the doctor in the field fed Linzi some liquid, presumably some kind of potion, Linzi slowly recovered his strength, and Krum was going around in circles above Linzi’s head.
Krum’s eagle-like eyes were scanning all directions, and he wanted to take advantage of the time while Linzi regained his strength to be able to search for the golden snitch without any interference.
Finally, Linzi recovered, and he remounted his firebolt and jumped into the air, much to the relief of the Elland team and supporters.
When referee Mustafa whistled again, the Ayrland chasers quickly organized their attack, their skills were so superb that the spectators in the stadium cheered.
Another 15 minutes later, Airland scored ten more goals with a strong posture, and Allland led 130-10.
The score gap was so large that the Bogaria players were very angry and annoyed, and they began to stop at nothing.
When Mallett rushed to the goal post again with the ghost fly ball under his arm, Bogaria’s goalkeeper Zoglaf flew out to meet him.
Everything happened so fast that many wizards didn’t see it clearly, but there was a burst of angry shouts from the crowd supporting the Aylan team, and referee Mustafa also blew a long, piercing whistle, and the Bogaria team fouled…
