Synopsis
On the day of the inter-school competition, Wakabayashi hasn't arrived yet. As various events progress smoothly, both schools are tied heading into the final soccer match. The competition's outcome depends on this game. Just before kickoff, Wakabayashi finally arrives—now all the pieces are in place! 'Nankatsu is going to win this match!' Tsubasa declares confidently to Wakabayashi. The two meet for the first time on the field. However, Roberto's strategy surprises everyone: he positions Tsubasa as a sweeper to minimize Nankatsu's concessions. This ignites Wakabayashi's fighting spirit. Wakabayashi rallies his team. 'Our goal for this match is 50 points!'
