Lol, team rivalries really brew out in a tournament like this. I'm still in support of Tsubasa's team though considering their progress and their character personalities.

Thought the match itself had a good momentum going on. It didn't waste time showcasing Tsubasa's teamwork with others. Some of those skill shots were also spot on. Good stuff this arc. Their defensive tactic was also clever lol

This match has potential to be one of the best matches imo.

Other teams' game. Twins keep their new skill for against Tsubasa's team.

Tsubasa team vs. new team. For their second game, other players are doing the jobs to give Tsubasa a break on his leg. They just showed their skills, which they are strong to begin with, to give enemies pressure (not affected by Twins not showing it).

That reporter who noticed that shoot from Brazil believes that Tsubasa will shoot during the game vs. twins.

Wow @ Hyuga guy team's decision during the final game without Hyuga guy.

Twins thinking they are the best combi since Tsubasa without Misaki anymore, but they lost guard and not expect Tsubasa to use team combi.

Oh, they (or that guy who already saw their shoot) have a way to block it. lol~

Tsubasa plays while always looking at his leg's condition.

Showing new sky skill, which needs third person's support. That gave Tsubasa team a pressure. Though only Tsubasa noticed Twin's unexpected expression before that.

Game continues next.

Those last minutes tho... I sometimes wonder what the author was thinking when he created such "absurd" shots xD

Well, I must say I really enjoyed this episode due to the amount of teamwork I saw in both Nankatsu's matches. I always appreciate when other players besides Tsubasa score some goals, even more when several players take part in the development of said goal.

Teamwork aside, there were some other moments I really liked such as Toho's players thinking in boycott their coach in case he doesn't let Hyuga play in the final match. Or when Ishizaki prevented the twins from using their technique, it was a really nice move from him, being honest.

Overall, nice episode. Looking forward to the rest of this match.

Really liked the episode. From someone that has never watched the original, it's nice to see them focusing on the other characters in Nankatsu for once and not just Tsubasa that ends up stealing all the limelight.

Nice episode but welcome to acrobatic soccer I guess. XD

It was cool to see the rest of Nankatsu play a bigger role than they usually do in today's episode.

And here it is, the famous Skylab Hurricane! (and reviewing that technique remembered me of its mention in Haikyuu!!'s manga XD)

That was good to see a lot more of teamwork, and the other players proving that Tsubasa isn't the only good player in the team.

Even though I know what will happen next, I like Toho's idea of doing a boycott if Kojiro doesn't play in the finals.

I'm so hyped for the finals, and I really expect them to give a continuation to this season!
