A hard comparison

Synopsis

Nitta boldly attempts no-trap falcon shots but can't score. Yet his timing gradually improves—Tsubasa grows anxious. With Taki and Isezaki's fierce attacks, a fierce scramble erupts at goal. Loose ball recovered by Otomo quickly passes to Nitta. From the resulting free kick, Otomo breaks through Nankatsu's wall as Nitta shoots. Tsubasa uses the goalpost's reaction to header-clear it. Ball returns to Nankatsu. With rare soccer sense, Tsubasa penetrates Otomo's defense but Urasoe's direct confrontation sends the ball floating to Nitta. Unmarked Nitta faces a perfect chance! A moment of suspense approaches.
