Synopsis
With teammates' support conserving energy, Tsubasa and Misaki recover. 'We won't waste everyone's efforts,' Tsubasa advances brilliantly. This is the critical moment. But Misaki's foot injury exceeds imagination—too much pain paralyzes him. Nankatsu worried, but Wakabayashi's encouragement reaches them. 'Trust Misaki!' With that reminder, Tsubasa passes to Misaki again. His only partner is Misaki. Responding to this faith, Misaki dribbles with trademark skill. The revived Golden Combination fears nothing now. With Misaki as decoy, Tsubasa executes overhead kick shooting. The first goal in extra time scores! Overtime second half, only two minutes remain but Meiwa hasn't surrendered hope.
