[00:01] ---
    We have less than ten minutes.
[00:03] ---
    Chances are the next point
    will be the game winner.
[00:14] ---
    Tsubasa has the ball.
[00:16] ---
    -Crap.
    -Crush him!
[00:18] ---
    France tackles!
[00:21] ---
    All right.
[00:22] ---
    But Tsubasa evades and passes mid-air.
[00:26] ---
    The ball goes to Misaki.
[00:28] ---
    But Misaki has Pierre on him.
[00:31] ---
    Like Tsubasa, will Misaki
    challenge him to a one-on-one?
[00:37] ---
    No, he passes.
[00:38] ---
    Here, Misaki.
[00:40] ---
    It's a superb one-two return with Tsubasa.
[00:44] ---
    Just as I thought,
    I'll intercept the return pass.
[00:46] ---
    But Pierre has read the return pass?
[00:52] ---
    What!
[00:54] ---
    Pierre slips on the muddy pitch!
[00:59] ---
    I'll stop him.
[01:01] ---
    All right.
[01:02] ---
    Kojiro.
[01:03] ---
    Misaki sends Hyuga a final pass.
[01:06] ---
    -Darn.
    -O-Oh no.
[01:08] ---
    A superb pass that goes between
    the French defense.
[01:11] ---
    All right, got it.
[01:13] ---
    I, Kojiro Hyuga,
    will score the winning point.
[01:19] ---
    What?
[01:19] ---
    Oh, it's stopped!
[01:21] ---
    Hyuga can't shoot like this!
[01:25] ---
    Phew.
[01:26] ---
    For France,
    that is truly one lucky puddle.
[01:30] ---
    Now the stopped ball
[01:31] ---
    has been picked up
    by the forward Napoleon, who has returned.
[01:35] ---
    The goddess of victory seems
    to have smiled down on us, after all.
[01:39] ---
    Let's go, Pierre.
[01:40] ---
    Napoleon.
[01:42] ---
    Let's go! Eiffel Attack!
[01:46] ---
    Eiffel Attack?
[02:00] ---
    CAPTAIN TSUBASA:
    JUNIOR YOUTH ARC
[02:05] ---
    
[03:21] ---
    EPISODE 23
    MISAKI VS. PIERRE
[03:23] ---
    Now it's time
    for a French counter attack.
[03:27] ---
    It's anyone's guess what Pierre
    and Napoleon's Eiffel Attack could be.
[03:33] ---
    All right, go France!
[03:36] ---
    There's only a little time left.
[03:38] ---
    If you can score now,
    it'll be a win for sure.
[03:42] ---
    Could it be an aerial move like ours?
[03:44] ---
    No, that's not it.
[03:45] ---
    It's a pass attack!
[03:47] ---
    Pierre!
[03:48] ---
    The ball goes from Napoleon to Pierre.
[03:51] ---
    And again to Napoleon.
[03:53] ---
    What?
[03:54] ---
    Unbelievable!
[03:55] ---
    Pierre and Napoleon pass back and forth,
    managing to get past two players.
[03:59] ---
    Like an elevator
    shooting up from both sides.
[04:02] ---
    The top floor, the target, being...
[04:05] ---
    Team Japan's goal!
[04:07] ---
    A pass attack in the shape
    of the Eiffel Tower itself.
[04:10] ---
    It's the Eiffel Attack!
[04:12] ---
    Shoot, get in there. Intercept!
[04:15] ---
    I'll stop them!
[04:17] ---
    What skill!
[04:19] ---
    Pierre with a brilliant loop pass
    that goes over Sano's head.
[04:23] ---
    Nice, Pierre.
[04:25] ---
    He goes from a long pass
    to a mid-range pass.
[04:27] ---
    He leaves Ishizaki behind
    with some skilled pass work.
[04:30] ---
    C-Crap.
[04:32] ---
    Oh, no. I know these two well.
[04:37] ---
    Napoleon's strength
    isn't just his shooting skills.
[04:41] ---
    When the two of us
    went up against Team France,
[04:45] ---
    his passing brought us to the goal.
[04:48] ---
    His passing game is practically perfect.
[04:51] ---
    And Pierre...
    He's not just talented on his own.
[04:56] ---
    His ability to get the goal
    and his precise passes
[04:58] ---
    make him an expert at placing the ball
    where he wants it.
[05:01] ---
    He's perfect in all areas,
    and he's truly an all-rounder.
[05:04] ---
    The Eiffel Attack by these two
    is the ultimate pass attack.
[05:10] ---
    I-I have to stop this one.
[05:14] ---
    Pierre!
[05:15] ---
    Here!
[05:17] ---
    Oh, Misaki with a sliding tackle
[05:18] ---
    the very moment the pass from Napoleon
    would be with Pierre!
[05:24] ---
    But Pierre takes the pass he was planning
    to kick with his right foot,
[05:29] ---
    and suddenly changes it to an outside
    front kick with his left foot!
[05:33] ---
    Misaki doesn't make it!
[05:36] ---
    Their passing is coming down
    to that ultimate turning point.
[05:38] ---
    From mid-range pass to short pass!
[05:40] ---
    It's now quick passing in a tight space.
[05:44] ---
    Oh no!
[05:45] ---
    Misugi is the lone defender.
[05:49] ---
    I told Tsubasa to leave the back to me.
[05:53] ---
    I won't let these two
    get to the goal! I'll stop them.
[05:57] ---
    A determined Misugi runs towards Pierre.
[06:02] ---
    Jun.
[06:04] ---
    They both kick the ball!
    Pierre and Misugi collide.
[06:11] ---
    Oh! The ball flies straight into the air.
[06:14] ---
    All right!
[06:16] ---
    Pierre heads the ball and loops back.
[06:21] ---
    All right! Nice one, Pierre.
[06:24] ---
    Crap.
[06:25] ---
    Napoleon times his run
    to get Pierre's ball.
[06:29] ---
    Now it's a one-on-one between Napoleon
    and Wakashimazu out in the field.
[06:34] ---
    Never mind Napoleon, shoot!
[06:39] ---
    A defensive slice!
[06:41] ---
    Cannon Shot!
[06:44] ---
    Fearless Wakashimazu jumps at the shot.
[06:49] ---
    Napoleon's Cannon Shot
    hits Wakashimazu's right hand
[06:53] ---
    and the ball flies toward Japan's goal.
[06:56] ---
    Oh, Wakashimazu manages to make
    the ball smack the cross bar.
[07:02] ---
    No goal for Napoleon's Cannon Shot.
[07:07] ---
    No goal!
[07:08] ---
    Phew.
[07:09] ---
    It isn't over yet.
    Our Eiffel Attack has no blind spot.
[07:14] ---
    I-Incredible! The deflected ball...
[07:19] ---
    It's Pierre's Jumping Volley!
[07:24] ---
    It's in, goal!
    France gets the go ahead goal.
[07:29] ---
    Pierre and Napoleon's Eiffel Attack
    pierces Japan's goal!
[07:35] ---
    It's 4-3 and they have the lead!
[07:37] ---
    All right!
[07:38] ---
    All right, we got the lead.
[07:39] ---
    Only Pierre! Good job, Napoleon!
[07:42] ---
    We got this.
[07:45] ---
    This point is huge.
[07:48] ---
    And with only five minutes
    before the end of the match.
[07:51] ---
    The stands are in an uproar
    and the support for France is deafening.
[07:55] ---
    Vive la France!
[07:57] ---
    I never thought we would need it
    against Japan.
[08:01] ---
    They were supposed to remain our secret
    weapons until the end of the tournament.
[08:06] ---
    Pierre's Slider Shot.
[08:09] ---
    And the Eiffel Attack.
[08:12] ---
    I wanted to keep this
    under wraps until the next match,
[08:15] ---
    in the final against Germany.
[08:19] ---
    But we need to win this one,
    or everything would be lost.
[08:22] ---
    We had no choice.
[08:25] ---
    But we've won this one.
[08:29] ---
    It's certainly a painful goal for Japan in
    this Junior Youth Tournament in France.
[08:36] ---
    Will this be it for Team Japan?
[08:40] ---
    Tsubasa will be okay.
[08:43] ---
    Guys, don't let your guard down.
[08:45] ---
    Yeah.
[08:47] ---
    They still haven't given up.
[08:51] ---
    Watch us, France Junior Youth.
[08:54] ---
    The match isn't' over yet.
    I swear we'll catch up.
[09:00] ---
    The match has less
    than five minutes remaining.
[09:04] ---
    The fans have been quiet, but they've
    woken up now with France's goal.
[09:09] ---
    Keep it up, France.
[09:11] ---
    Let's tie it up
    before the final whistle, Japan.
[09:18] ---
    We can't lose, guys!
[09:20] ---
    Let's give it our all.
    Come on, let's cheer!
[09:22] ---
    Y-Yeah.
[09:23] ---
    Go, Japan!
[09:25] ---
    Fight on!
[09:27] ---
    -Go, Japan!
    -Go, Japan! That's right.
[09:30] ---
    They're wearing the Japanese flags
    with pride. They'll fight until the end.
[09:35] ---
    As long as we keep on cheering,
    they'll keep fighting toward the goal.
[09:41] ---
    Go, Japan! You can still tie this.
[09:46] ---
    And we're back.
[09:48] ---
    Japan Junior Youth captain, Tsubasa,
    receives the pass and starts to dribble.
[09:52] ---
    Go, Tsubasa.
[09:55] ---
    Our goal is to win.
[09:57] ---
    We can't lose now.
[10:00] ---
    We're coming, France Junior Youth.
[10:03] ---
    Tsubasa breaks through
    with some dribbling.
[10:06] ---
    It seems the pesky puddles
    and mud are preventing
[10:09] ---
    even Tsubasa Ozora
    from dribbling the way he wants.
[10:13] ---
    -All right, I can get it.
    -Shoot.
[10:15] ---
    Here.
[10:17] ---
    Tsubasa, seeing Degaulle coming
    towards him, changes to a pass.
[10:22] ---
    But again, the mud stops
    the pass attack from Tsubasa.
[10:27] ---
    All right.
[10:29] ---
    France clears it wide.
[10:32] ---
    This field is certainly in a state
    and drainage is out of the question.
[10:36] ---
    So is any kind of ordinary
    predictable play.
[10:39] ---
    All of this certainly makes that point
[10:42] ---
    by Pierre and Napoleon's
    Eiffel Attack all the more amazing.
[10:46] ---
    Go, Japan.
[10:47] ---
    It's only sheer determination
    that'll carry them through!
[10:49] ---
    With being short one player, Team Japan
    has to be even more determined.
[10:54] ---
    Guys, please.
[10:56] ---
    France is in defense mode and determined
    to protect their one-point lead.
[11:00] ---
    Tsubasa.
[11:02] ---
    Tsubasa!
[11:04] ---
    Once again, Japan is on the attack!
[11:07] ---
    What will playmaker Tsubasa do?
[11:09] ---
    What kind of strategy
    does he have under his sleeve?
[11:11] ---
    With this rain, getting through by
    dribbling or breaking them down
[11:16] ---
    through passing isn't going to work.
[11:19] ---
    Then, this is the only way.
[11:22] ---
    Tsubasa.
[11:23] ---
    Oh, Tsubasa.
[11:24] ---
    Drive Shot!
[11:27] ---
    What?
[11:28] ---
    CAPTAIN TSUBASA:
    JUNIOR YOUTH ARC
[11:30] ---
    
[11:34] ---
    BIRTH DATE MAY 5 / HEIGHT 165 CM
    WEIGHT 53 KG / BLOOD TYPE AB
[11:37] ---
    Drive Shot!
[11:39] ---
    What?
[11:40] ---
    Tsubasa, with a daring shot!
[11:44] ---
    No way!
[11:48] ---
    Oh, but Napoleon blocks it!
[11:53] ---
    Nice, Napoleon!
[11:55] ---
    The ball bounces to Hyuga.
[11:57] ---
    That's right.
[11:59] ---
    Tsubasa's right.
[12:01] ---
    We've only got a little time left.
[12:02] ---
    And with the pitch like this,
[12:05] ---
    the only thing we can do
    is try for a goal with a long shot.
[12:07] ---
    Mark Number 9!
[12:09] ---
    Yeah.
[12:11] ---
    Degaulle and Rust
    mark Hyuga at the middle third
[12:14] ---
    so he can't pull off
    his killer Tiger Shot.
[12:18] ---
    No, I can't shoot like this.
[12:20] ---
    The twin cannon long shooters for Japan,
[12:23] ---
    Tsubasa and Hyuga, have their shots
    stifled by France's defense.
[12:28] ---
    With the end of the match so close,
    and this terrible pitch...
[12:32] ---
    The only things to fear
    are the long shots by those two.
[12:37] ---
    As long as we stop them, we win.
[12:41] ---
    France in the finals will be a sure thing.
[12:44] ---
    Just wait, Germany Junior Youth.
[12:47] ---
    We'll see you in the final.
[12:52] ---
    Now less than three minutes remain.
[12:55] ---
    Has Team Japan run out of options?
[12:58] ---
    Crap!
[13:00] ---
    Coach, Coach!
[13:02] ---
    We know we don't have many options left.
    Please, put us in.
[13:05] ---
    Our injuries won't hold us back!
    We can use our Skylab.
[13:09] ---
    Tachibana.
[13:11] ---
    Hyuga!
[13:13] ---
    Hyuga with a back heel
    and the recipient is...
[13:16] ---
    Matsuyama! It's Matsuyama!
[13:19] ---
    Japan has one long-range cannon left!
[13:22] ---
    Go, Matsuyama.
[13:24] ---
    Shoot it!
[13:26] ---
    Take that!
    This kind of pitch is my specialty.
[13:32] ---
    Go!
[13:35] ---
    There it is!
    Matsuyama's one and only Eagle Shot!
[13:39] ---
    The ball makes a splash
    toward France's goal!
[13:42] ---
    All right, it's ours!
[13:46] ---
    No way are you going to score now!
[13:50] ---
    Pierre!
[13:51] ---
    The rejected ball
    goes out of the touchline.
[13:54] ---
    Oh, that was so close.
[13:57] ---
    Only a few moments left.
[13:59] ---
    Have Team Japan's hopes
    for a tie finally disappeared?
[14:06] ---
    Oh, substitution from Japan.
[14:10] ---
    In a last-ditch effort for a tie,
[14:12] ---
    Japan puts in the Tachibana twins
    for Sano and Sorimachi.
[14:17] ---
    We're counting on you.
[14:18] ---
    Yeah.
[14:23] ---
    Those two...
[14:25] ---
    The match resumes with Japan's throw in.
[14:32] ---
    The ball goes from Misaki to Tsubasa
    and they attack again.
[14:37] ---
    The Tachibana twins and Jito move up.
[14:39] ---
    Here.
[14:40] ---
    All right! Go, Tachibana twins.
[14:43] ---
    Yo.
[14:44] ---
    Let's go!
[14:45] ---
    And there it is!
    Aerial magic by the Tachibana twins.
[14:52] ---
    It's Skylab Hurricane!
[14:55] ---
    We lost a point with that trick, too.
[14:58] ---
    All right, go!
[14:59] ---
    This ties it.
[15:00] ---
    Oh no!
[15:01] ---
    The pitch may be a problem on the ground,
    but not so in the air.
[15:07] ---
    Team Japan's last hope lies
    with the Tachibana brothers' Skylab.
[15:13] ---
    Take that!
[15:14] ---
    Yeah!
[15:16] ---
    This is our Twin Shot!
[15:18] ---
    No way!
[15:22] ---
    Oh, the Twin Shot
    by the Tachibana brothers
[15:25] ---
    is rejected by Pierre's
    vertically spinning kneel kick!
[15:29] ---
    Nice, Pierre!
[15:30] ---
    I already saw that trick
    in the Argentina match.
[15:33] ---
    As long as I'm around, you're not scoring.
[15:37] ---
    That last trick by Japan is a dud!
[15:41] ---
    Pierre stands as the wall between them
    and the French goal!
[15:44] ---
    Nice, Pierre!
[15:46] ---
    We got this match!
[15:48] ---
    Ref, blow the whistle. It's time.
[15:51] ---
    It's no good.
[15:53] ---
    Skylab by the Tachibana twins didn't work.
[15:57] ---
    The guys are marking
    numbers 9, 10, and 12.
[16:02] ---
    I just stopped the ace in the hole
    by numbers 2 and 3.
[16:06] ---
    Team Japan doesn't have
    any long shots left.
[16:09] ---
    We won!
[16:12] ---
    The ref looks at his watch!
[16:15] ---
    The match is already in additional time.
[16:18] ---
    Has the tremendous work by Pierre finally
    clinched a spot in the finals for France?
[16:23] ---
    Not yet! We haven't lost yet.
[16:26] ---
    Oh, but here's Misaki.
[16:28] ---
    He's trapped the ball
    that Pierre repelled.
[16:31] ---
    On this muddy pitch, he dribbles alone
    towards the French goal.
[16:36] ---
    For Japan, this will be the final assault.
[16:40] ---
    That's!
[16:41] ---
    -Misaki!
    -Misaki!
[16:42] ---
    -Taro!
    -Misaki!
[16:44] ---
    Misaki!
[16:45] ---
    The long shot is no longer an option,
[16:48] ---
    so Misaki attempts to break through
    by dribbling.
[16:52] ---
    Current conditions make dribbling seem
    a bit of a reckless endeavor, but...
[16:56] ---
    Come at me, Misaki.
[16:59] ---
    No matter what the pitch is like,
    we all play under the same conditions.
[17:02] ---
    It's difficult to dribble,
    but so is defending.
[17:06] ---
    Host country France has taken Pierre,
    practically a pro, and created
[17:10] ---
    a team of elite players
    who've played together for months.
[17:14] ---
    But for us... Team Japan
    may have been thrown together...
[17:22] ---
    But our hearts have been working towards
    the same goal for three years.
[17:28] ---
    And that...
[17:30] ---
    I'm going to Brazil
    and becoming a professional!
[17:33] ---
    And I'll make Japan
    number one in the world.
[17:36] ---
    Those words...
[17:38] ---
    Me, Wakabayashi,
    Kojiro, and Matsuyama, too.
[17:44] ---
    I know we were all moved
    by Tsubasa's words that day.
[17:50] ---
    Misaki gets by!
[17:52] ---
    Even in the worst conditions,
    Misaki's technique still shines.
[17:56] ---
    It's been three years since
[17:58] ---
    we started walking towards the goal of
    becoming number one in the world.
[18:02] ---
    Winning this tournament
    will be our major first step.
[18:06] ---
    We can't stop at the semi-finals.
    We won't lose.
[18:10] ---
    No way are we losing!
[18:12] ---
    Amazing! Misaki blows by
    France Junior Youth.
[18:17] ---
    Impressive.
[18:18] ---
    Great ball control,
    even with the pitch in that condition.
[18:23] ---
    I didn't know there was someone
[18:25] ---
    besides Tsubasa Ozora
    who dribbles like this in Japan.
[18:28] ---
    Go, Misaki!
[18:31] ---
    Win! We're going to win!
[18:33] ---
    When this tournament is over,
    I'll be alone again.
[18:37] ---
    I can't play soccer
    with these guys anymore.
[18:41] ---
    I may be in France, but I'm Japanese.
[18:44] ---
    From now on, I'm going to represent Japan.
    I'll wear the flag and fight.
[18:50] ---
    Watch me.
[18:52] ---
    Dad!
[18:54] ---
    Taro.
[18:55] ---
    The chief referee keeps
    looking at his watch.
[18:59] ---
    Only a short amount of time remains.
[19:01] ---
    And there's one more on the French team.
[19:04] ---
    Pierre is waiting!
[19:07] ---
    The man who defeated
    Matsuyama's Eagle Shot,
[19:09] ---
    and the Tachibana twins'
    Skylab Hurricane.
[19:12] ---
    Elle Sid Pierre
    blocks the path to the French goal.
[19:17] ---
    One-on-one, let's finish this
    right here, Misaki.
[19:22] ---
    Let's go, Pierre.
[19:23] ---
    This is my last gamble.
[19:28] ---
    Oh, Misaki kicks it out
    diagonally behind Pierre.
[19:33] ---
    What?
[19:34] ---
    But it's too weak for a shot.
[19:38] ---
    Oh, the ball stops in a puddle.
[19:41] ---
    Misaki dashes.
[19:44] ---
    Pierre turns around and goes after it.
[19:47] ---
    The goalie comes running out.
[19:48] ---
    Pierre is running
    after reversing direction.
[19:51] ---
    I'm already building my speed
    from dribbling.
[19:54] ---
    I'll get to the ball first!
[19:57] ---
    And then this!
[19:59] ---
    Unreal! Misaki uses the slick surface
    and his speed to slide.
[20:05] ---
    It's Misaki's Sliding Shot.
[20:08] ---
    -All right.
    -You did it, Misaki!
[20:10] ---
    Not yet, I'm here!
[20:12] ---
    Napoleon comes around
    from the side and blocks it.
[20:17] ---
    Japan can't score off the final attack.
[20:21] ---
    -Napoleon!
    -Bravo!
[20:24] ---
    I can't! There's nothing left.
[20:26] ---
    Don't give up, Misaki!
[20:31] ---
    Misaki's blocked foot...
[20:34] ---
    Tsubasa comes up
    from behind and pushes.
[20:36] ---
    They get by Napoleon's stronghold!
    The Golden Duo is alive and well.
[20:41] ---
    All right.
[20:43] ---
    Misaki is flying.
[20:46] ---
    And Misaki takes the floating ball
    and immediately...
[20:50] ---
    A Jumping Volley!
[20:54] ---
    It's in! Misaki's shot
    digs into France's goal!
[20:59] ---
    We... We did it Misaki! We're tied.
[21:03] ---
    No!
[21:04] ---
    No goal! The match was over
    before the goal!
[21:08] ---
    Was that the goal whistle
    or to signal the end of the match?
[21:14] ---
    If it was the latter, then with 4-3,
    France goes to the final.
[21:20] ---
    Goal is good!
[21:24] ---
    It's a goal! Misaki's shot is accepted.
[21:29] ---
    Team Japan persisted and scored
    right before the end of the second half.
[21:33] ---
    It's 4-4 and they've tied it.
[21:37] ---
    The match goes into overtime
    with two ten-minute halves.
[21:40] ---
    -Misaki, great job.
    -Yay Misaki, nice shot.
[21:45] ---
    He did it, they're tied.
[21:47] ---
    They tied, they tied.
[21:50] ---
    Well done, Taro.
[21:52] ---
    All right.
[21:53] ---
    Now I can play soccer with Tsubasa
    and the guys for another twenty minutes.
[22:00] ---
    Misaki.
