[00:02] ---     It was the championship match of the     National Junior High Soccer Tournament. [00:05] ---     In an unprecedented twist,     Nankatsu and Toho Academy [00:08] ---     managed to tie in what became     a battle of blood, sweat, and tears.

[00:52] ---     My transfer to Munich is official. [00:55] ---     You're leaving Hamburg? [00:58] ---     What? But this's been     your team from the beginning. [01:02] ---     This team made you who you are. [01:05] ---     The attacker Schneider,     the defender Wakabayashi. [01:08] ---     You two have made Hamburg     an unbeatable junior team. [01:13] ---     Because of you both, we have all the     German and European titles this season. [01:20] ---     You're a traitor to Hamburg. [01:24] ---     It's simple.     Munich has proven they value my skill. [01:29] ---     They'll let me make     my Bundesliga debut next season. [01:33] ---     The where doesn't matter.     I always give it my all. [01:37] ---     The team may change, but I don't. [01:41] ---     My objective is clear.     I will become the strongest. [01:46] ---     I will be number one! [01:48] ---     I will be the best player in the world. [01:53] ---     That happens to be a goal of mine as well. [01:58] ---     How about one last match, Wakabayashi? [02:02] ---     Sounds good to me. [02:06] ---     Outside the penalty area wasn't it? [02:08] ---     Yeah. [02:09] ---     Genzo Wakabayashi, genius goal keeper. [02:12] ---     This season, not a single shot     got past him from outside the penalty. [02:19] ---     Will Schneider be the one     to finally break this streak? [02:24] ---     Hope you're ready, Wakabayashi. [02:26] ---     Bring it.

[04:38] ---     Indeed. [04:39] ---     This European tour [04:41] ---     is not just to test us at the French     International Junior Youth Tournament, [04:45] ---     but also to compete against     next level world players. [04:50] ---     That's right, and we'll need to choose who     our regulars will be for each position. [04:56] ---     Misugi-kun, as coach, I want you [04:59] ---     to see how they move, and figure out who     should be a part of our starting lineup. [05:04] ---     Got it. [05:05] ---     All right, that's enough. [05:07] ---     Yes sir. [05:13] ---     This team... [05:15] ---     We've got our share of great players,     but someone's missing. [05:22] ---     Of course, that someone's Tsubasa. [05:26] ---     He's a playmaker and he can score.     We'll be unstoppable with him. [05:33] ---     I feel it in my bones. [05:38] ---     -Okay, it's reds vs whites.     -But Tsubasa is recuperating at home now. SIGN    OZORA [05:43] ---     A European tour     seems just too far out of reach.

[06:00] ---     Let's take a break, Carlos. [06:03] ---     No way. Before you know it     you'll be healed up [06:06] ---     and playing soccer     every waking moment again.

SIGN    YOU HAVE A MESSAGE     ISHIZAKI [06:19] ---     Sorry, Carlos, it's Ishizaki. [06:24] ---     Tsubasa, the ball is your friend. [06:27] ---     We're about to go reds vs whites. [06:29] ---     We can't wait until we get to play     with you. We'll be waiting. [06:33] ---     Guys, come on, line up. [06:35] ---     We're sending this to Tsubasa. [06:37] ---     To Tsubasa? [06:39] ---     Tsubasa, hurry up and join us.     Hyuga and I are waiting. [06:45] ---     Matsuyama. [06:48] ---     When this camp is over,     they're all going on the European tour. [06:52] ---     I wish I could be there too. [06:55] ---     If I go to Europe, maybe I can see     Misaki and Wakabayashi. [06:59] ---     You're lucky, Tsubasa. [07:02] ---     You have so many good friends. [07:04] ---     Yeah. We're all friends from grade school. [07:09] ---     The first friend I made     when I moved here was Ishizaki. [07:20] ---     I met Wakabayashi next. [07:25] ---     Soccer brought us all together. [07:27] ---     This is Wakabayashi, right?     He's in Germany right now. [07:32] ---     Yup, he can stop any ball from outside     the penalty area. He's a great goalie. [07:38] ---     Oh, so he's your rival, eh? [07:41] ---     Yeah. [07:45] ---     There it is! It's Fire Shot     from outside the penalty area. [07:51] ---     This reminds me of the showdown     Tsubasa and I had at the match. [07:56] ---     Until then, I had blocked all shots     from outside the penalty area. [08:01] ---     The only one who broke     my no-goal streak was Tsubasa. [08:08] ---     And now, Schneider, showdowns with you     always remind me of Tsubasa. [08:20] ---     It's in. [08:22] ---     Schneider wins. [08:24] ---     So that's 50 wins 50 losses to date. [08:29] ---     You win. Your shots have gotten     even more powerful. [08:35] ---     The ball actually stretched     by my fingertips. [08:38] ---     You're headed to the top one day. [08:42] ---     Let's have a real showdown then,     Wakabayashi. [08:48] ---     When do you leave for Munich? [08:50] ---     After I play one more match for Hamburg. [08:56] ---     You get it right, Wakabayashi? [08:58] ---     Yeah. [09:01] ---     Mikami promised me. [09:04] ---     The first match of the Japan junior team     European tour is with Hamburg. [09:11] ---     I'll show them how much     I've grown in Germany. [09:15] ---     Hey, Tsubasa,     we came to see how you're doing. [09:18] ---     How's the injury? [09:20] ---     You guys. [09:21] ---     Tsubasa, we brought you this. [09:23] ---     Thanks. [09:25] ---     Kumi is the one who wanted to come visit. [09:28] ---     Aww, come on guys, I'm not that injured. [09:32] ---     Look, my shoulder and foot     are almost better. [09:36] ---     I'm glad there was nothing wrong     with your bones or tendons. [09:39] ---     You played so hard at nationals,     Tsubasa, you're built super tough. [09:46] ---     I guess I've got my parents     to thank for that. [09:50] ---     Tsubasa, I bet you can't wait     to kick a ball. [09:53] ---     You're right. I think maybe I can... [09:57] ---     No, don't push yourself, Tsubasa. [09:59] ---     That's right. Don't move     until you're completely recovered. [10:03] ---     That's right, and in the meantime,     you study Portuguese. [10:08] ---     Oh yeah. Next year at this time,     you'll be in Brazil. [10:14] ---     Yup. [10:27] ---     Coach. [10:30] ---     I came up with a list of regulars. [10:33] ---     Interesting, you and I came up     with almost the same list. [10:39] ---     Using Matsuyama as defender     is a bold move I didn't think of. [10:43] ---     Yes, in doing so, [10:46] ---     you have a solid line with goalie,     defender, midfielder and forward. [10:53] ---     But this only works if Tsubasa can play. [10:58] ---     Correct, and then, there's Genzo. [11:02] ---     You mean Wakabayashi? [11:04] ---     If Genzo in Germany can participate,     then our defense is even stronger. [11:16] ---     What's wrong, Kumi? [11:17] ---     -Sanae...     -Huh? [11:19] ---     I was wondering about you and Tsubasa,     and how you feel about him. [11:23] ---     I really like him. [11:29] ---     At first, I just admired him, [11:32] ---     but then, all of a sudden, I just     sort of began to like him more and more. [11:36] ---     Before he leaves for Brazil,     I'm going to tell him. [11:43] ---     I mean, if you like someone,     you should tell them, right? [11:48] ---     Sorry, I've gotta go. SIGN    NEXT DAY [12:00] ---     Okay, you're playing high schoolers. [12:02] ---     And Mihara Central High     have a reputation as a strong team.

[12:41] ---     They're not letting us get the ball     to our ace, Hyuga. [12:51] ---     You were right. [12:53] ---     Matsuyama the midfielder has come down     to the defense line and is working hard. [12:58] ---     Yes, I thought his possession skill and     tenacity were well-suited as a defender. [13:03] ---     There. [13:04] ---     Good clear. [13:07] ---     We can't win like this. [13:09] ---     Be patient, come on, Hyuga. [13:12] ---     My responsibility as playmaker for     this match is to get a pass out to you. [13:19] ---     Until then,     stay put in the forward position. [13:22] ---     That's right, we're not going     to just keep getting pushed around. [13:25] ---     Don't forget,     we're bigger than them. [13:29] ---     Aack! Matsuyama! [13:30] ---     Yes! Ishizaki the unpredictable. [13:33] ---     Way to go, Ishizaki.
