Shidou steals the ball from Kaiser and now it’s on Rin and Isagi to take each of their teams to the victory line.
The latest chapter of Muneyuki Kaneshiro’s football manga was filled to the brim with excitement. Not only did Isagi and Kaiser develop a new move to confuse Rin, but Ness finally went through an evolution without depending on Kaiser. Before Kaiser could score a goal, Shidou stole the ball from him. With the ball in the sky, every player is seen running toward it to score the final goal.
Isagi and Kaiser finally overcome Rin’s destruction

The duo from Bastard München realise that the only way to overcome Rin and score a goal is to trick him. The two of them run in a criss-cross path so Rin will be confused about who will score and whom to chase. The one he doesn’t choose will get the ball and score the final goal. The plan is successful as Rin is confused. On the other hand, we see Ness looking at this play and realising that Kaiser has left him far behind. He remembers how Kaiser had approached him and how the two started playing together. But now that Kaiser wants to change, Ness needs to change and adapt too, if he wants to keep playing football.
The next panel shows an insane aura around Ness as he starts running toward the ball. Hiori and Karasu go head-to-head with the latter trying to steal the ball from the former. Hiori realises that both Isagai and Kaiser are within his range, and now it’s just a matter of luck if the person he kicks the ball to is also chosen by Rin. On the other hand, Rin needs to make a decision as he can’t possibly keep up with both of them. Just as Hiori kicks the ball, Rin chooses Isagi because he’s the one he wants to destroy. Hiori, with a perfect idea of Rin’s psyche, kicks the ball towards Kaiser.
However, just as the German forward tries to take the ball, Shidou is there to stop him. He kicks the ball away and Charles is the one to catch up with it first. He is ecstatic and thanks Shidou. But before he can make a play with the ball, Kunigami attacks him and kicks it upward, leaving the last play to fate. Every player on the field looks upward as the ball starts to come down. It seems that the final play of the match will come down between Isagi and Rin.
