4-1, huh?

Four goals against Ryuushin, whose forte is their compact defense.

Seiseki really is a formidable side.

They've won every match they've played in the camp so far.

T-Tsukamoto...

...got two miraculous assists.

You did it, Tsukamoto!

Seiseki's strong.

There's no reason to doubt it any longer.

I'm still putting my money on Seikan, though.

They'll be facing each other tomorrow.

We'll see who comes out on top in this camp.

It looks like this'll be more fun than I expected.

Tomorrow, we're up against Seikan.

They're every bit as strong as the data suggests.

They haven't recorded a single loss at this camp.

On average, they've scored 3.3 goals and let 0.2 in.

They tend to score at the beginning of the match,

the end of the first half, and the beginning of the second half.

So they're a team that knows when to go all in.

Seikan's strong.

Their main pillar is Taira, who plays in the hole.

In terms of individual skill, he's on par with Saku High's Indou.

Indou...

This is it.

Wrong door.

Hey, wait, Mizuki!

We're teammates.

Teammates?

I'm sorry!

Sorry, sorry.

It's more accurate to say that we will be teammates.

Next year, we're both going to be pros on the same team.

Our captain's talking to Seikan's Taira?

You're not really satisfied with Kimishita's passes, correct?

Right now, you're only being allowed to play at 60% of your potential.

But with my passes, you'd be playing at 100%.

Scratch that, 120%.

I mean, you're better than this.

I guess so.

Who are you?

I'm the center back on the team you're playing tomorrow.

My name is Higuchi.

Are you some kind of scout?

My answer is no.

I'm flattered, though.

I guess that means you're on the starting line-up.

Well, now I'm relieved.

"Relieved"?

Because I think Seiseki is scarier when your Number 17 is playing.

Damn four eyes!

Wait right there!

Kazama's going to be our key player in tomorrow's match against Seikan.

But Seikan has a similar player.

You mean their first-year star, Himura Mayumi?

I heard rumors about a "super rookie" who plays for Seiseki...

Same here for Seikan. It seems the rumors are true and you're quite good.

Yeah, it seems you're not too shabby yourself.

The other first-years aren't even worth talking about.

I feel the same.

I heard tomorrow's game is basically riding on you.

What a strange coincidence.

I heard the same.

I Love This Team

That's it! Run away!

Kazama, go cover the right flank!

Roger.

Seiseki's chasing them hard.

Of course they are.

They know what they're up against.

Seikan absolutely schooled us in the opening minutes.

That Taira guy is absolutely clinical on the ball, that's for sure.

Taira's got it.

You'd better watch out now, Seiseki.

Suzuki-senpai! Satou-senpai!

Good pressure!

What the hell?

But there are two of us!

A gentle breeze...

He's going to shoot!

He's shooting?

There was nothing "gentle" about that.

Taira's got the power, and Himura's got the speed.

Seikan's magic formula.

Seikan takes the lead!

That was lightning fast!

All right!

I did it!

You fool!

Look behind you.

What?

Offside?

It wasn't a goal?!

I should've been just on!

Nice!

You totally saved us.

That guy...

No worries.

It's Seiseki's ball now.

Damn, that was close!

Did he make the defensive line push up?

Usui-senpai's a god!

Still, to have the legs to catch up to that ball

and then control it in mid-air like that...

I can't believe Himura's a first-year.

He's even better than they said.

It's okay.

Huh?

We know a first-year who's even more amazing.

Looks like their rookie's showing off.

I hope you can upstage him.

Kazama!

Boy, being a "super rookie" isn't all fun and games, is it?

He's coming!

Box him in!

So close!

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

He's just a first-year, too.

Seiseki's Kazama and Seikan's Himura...

Their performances will decide which way this match goes.

Perfect!

He outjumped Ooshiba-senpai?

You punk...

You pushed down on my shoulder!

Talk about a big, clumsy springboard!

You're great, really.

You four-eyed monkey!

Ooshiba!

You're mid-game!

This is bad.

Yeah, Higuchi's definitely a cut above in the mind games department.

If this goes on, he'll run rings around Ooshiba mentally.

Back off!

Your Number 17's better than you.

Damn it!

This is getting one-sided.

Kimishita can't keep the ball.

Taira closes him down too quickly.

He doesn't have time to weigh his options, so he keeps playing balls to Ooshiba.

Kimishita's too scared of Taira.

This is bad! This is real bad!

Kimishita-senpai's getting flustered!

Kimishita-senpai still looks like he always does, though.

Huh?

Kimishita-senpai's probably also...

Looks like your little Kimishita is rattled.

"Rattled"? That guy?

Would he ever get rattled?

Why don't you ever pick out Mizuki or Kazama?

These desperate passes will all get intercepted.

It's common sense to only fight when you can win.

What do you mean by that?

That our idiot is better than your monkey.

Wow, Higuchi, they're underestimating you.

We aren't going to be childish forever. Neither him, nor me.

A pass to Kazama...

...is a feint.

It's going to Ooshiba, isn't it?

A nutmeg?!

I won't let you pass!

Kimishita-senpai...

I bet Kimishita-senpai has faith in Ooshiba-senpai.

I see, Kimishita. I'm better than the "monkey," huh?

Kimishita never learns, does he?

That's enough.

Your aim was just to piss me off, wasn't it?

My eyes are wide open now.

Though I'd still be mad if this was a few days ago.
