The throw-in will be taken by Takasugi of Shuutetsu!
Oh! It's a really long throw-in!
In fact, it's a superb centering!
Will Izawa of Shuutetsu or Tsubasa
of Nankatsu get the ball back!?
The ball is taken back by Kisugi of Shuutetsu!
He shoots!
It's in! Shuutetsu open the score!
- Yeah, we did it!
It's over for you, Nankatsu!
We opened the score!
Victory is ours!
Even though you played well until now.
It's not over!
What!?
It's not over yet! The match is only beginning!
The long shot of fate!
First minute of the 2nd half!
Shuutetsu finally opened the score!
Okay, let's keep up the pace!
Yes!
Have Nankatsu, who have fought well until now,
used up all their stamina!?
Bah, it's only the beginning of the match!
Yes, you're right!
Wakabayashi! It's only the beginning of our batlle!
This one goal will be enough.
I'll protect it with all I've got.
Will you continue to not attack, Tsubasa!?
As I thought, Shuutetsu is superior.
This goal will weigh heavily.
And all of that is thanks to Wakabayashi!
Don't give up until the end!
You have to score a goal
as soon as you concede one, Tsubasa!
Let's go! The match is only beginning!
Yes, you're right!
Okay, let's go guys!
Yes!
We finally conceded a goal
They did their best, but it's all over
What are you saying!?
Tsubasa is here!
We won't lose!
Sorry
Go, go, Tsubasa!
Nankatsu's formation has been modified!
The match will now continue!
Oh! Tsubasa is running forward straight
after the kick-off!
We have to stop Tsubasa!
Forget the wingers!
He avoids him with a feint!
Superb!
Damn! I'll stop him!
Tsubasa!
Great!
Keep going at this pace!
He's doing some splendid dribbles, despite
his high speed, as well as some very skilled feints!
None of Shuutetsu's backs or forwards
can keep up with him!
Go, Tsubasa!
Keep on going like that, straight to the goal!
Leave him!
No need to mark him!
Let him shoot!
Tsubasa!
Ah, Tsubasa passed the last defender!
It will now be a "one-on-one"
with Wakabayashi, the keeper!
It's a shot from the middle of the opponents half!
Is this the equaliser!?
Wakabayashi catches it!
Nice catch by Wakabayashi!
As expected from him
Ahh, Damn!
He nearly levelled.
It won't be easy to score a goal
on Wakabayashi even for Tsubasa.
Go, it's our chance!
Go!
Here!
Now it's a good chance for Shuutetsu!
Will they score another goal
in the absence of Tsubasa in the defense!?
Hurry guys, we have to get back!
Go, go!
Taki is in a good position and heads a pass to Izawa!
Nakazato is marking him persistently!
For you!
Izawa passes!
Oh! Nankatsu manages to clear the ball for a throw-in!
They were easily dominated during
the previous matches.
When did they?
It's now a throw-in for Shuutetsu!
Izawa traps it with his chest and kicks it!
Taki of Shuutetsu traps it!
He passes the ball to Kisugi!
Tsubasa is quickly coming back!
Tsubasa intercepts the ball!
Yes!
Fast!
Such a clever player
He read the path of the pass in a split second
Eh? What.
.
!?
He's going to shoot!
No way! He's still in his own half of the field!
Tsubasa does a very long shot!
It can't be!
Great!
It's the super long shot
he showed us against Nishigaoka!
Will he score!?
Wakabayashi catches the ball!
Are you losing it, Tsubasa?
You really thought that such a shot
could work against me!?
It was close, Tsubasa!
I thought it would go in for sure!
Anego
I hate this goalkeeper!
Me too!
Keep your calm, Tsubasa.
You're trying to shoot too much.
Soccer has to be played with eleven players.
This is troublesome.
Tsubasa's flaw is showing up in this match.
What do you mean?
A goal can't be scored alone.
Until his arrival here,
Tsubasa always played alone with his ball.
Which means he's not used to teamplay.
Tsubasa got the ball back again!
But he's giving off the impression that he's playing alone,
Nankatsu's play is desperately missing some teamwork!
He's playing alone!
We have to completely mark Tsubasa!
Alright!
What!?
Nankatsu is playing collectively for the first time.
This is very good pass work.
The passes are easily being made
since Shuutetsu are focused on Tsubasa,
that fact aside, it's very good pass play!
Was this his plan all along?
or did he decide to do it,
when he realised what was happening?
In any case, he really has
an incredible flair for the game.
That's it, Tsubasa.
Soccer is a game played with 11 players.
Don't leave Tsubasa unmarked!
Tsubasa, unmarked, gets the ball!
He passes near the throw-in line.
The ball moves along the line without going out!
Ishizaki follows well.
Watch the opposite side!
Oh! It's a very nice centering!
A header from Oda!?
Oh, Oda lets the ball pass!
Wakabayashi is completely beaten!
Tsubasa does a diving headshot!
Will he score!?
The equalising goal!?
Oh! The ball went off course when it bounced!
The equalising goal has been missed!
Nankatsu missed a great opportunity!
Luck is also a strength.
Sorry Tsubasa, but this match is for us.
Despite the great pass play and this shot by Nankatsu,
the ball unfortunately had an irregular bounce.
What's he thinking?
Smiling at this stage
Is he admitting defeat?
There's only 5 minutes remaining!
Okay.
In that case, you'll see!
Alright! The birdcage!
The birdcage?
The birdcage?
What's "the birdcage"?
Wakabayashi, the goalkeeper,
is going to take the goalkick!
The ball advances quickly!
What is this "birdcage"?
I don't know what it is, but if they get the ball back,
this will be bad for us!
The ball is now at the feet of Shuutetsu!
Having to use the birdcage
against a team like Nankatsu
We don't have a choice.
We've only managed to score
one goal against Nankatsu.
An elementary school team
plans to use the birdcage?
If we get caught in it,
we won't have any chance to counter-attack.
Izawa passes the ball.
To you!
Damn!
Shuutetsu is using a very fast pass play.
To you!
If we don't get the ball back
The ball is now back at the feet
of the game maker, Izawa.
Taki!
Okay!
Mark Taki!
Taki, the winger, advances quickly with the ball!
Everyone in front of the goal!
Taki will center the ball!
Ah! A centering from the right side from Shuutetsu!?
Taki is running to the corner post!
Look out!
Taki is about to make a centering!
Here it comes!
Oh, he passes the ball back!
It's a back pass for Izawa.
It's now Izawa's turn to do a back pass!
What are they doing?
Shuutetsu is not attacking!
What's the matter!?
Go, attack!
Shuutetsu is just passing the ball around.
What is this birdcage!?
Are you just letting the time run out?
Yes! It's unfair, Shuutetsu!
Okay Let's go, guys!
Oh! Nankatsu have snapped out of it
and try to retrieve the ball!
Okay, here they come.
Let's go, Taki!
Damn, let's go back!
Taki got the ball back!
I'll get the ball from him!
Okay, we're counting on you!
We'll position ourselves in front of the goal!
Will Taki do a centering this time!?
Oh, he's doing a back pass again!
What!?
Here's the birdcage.
The strategy that Wakabayashi
put in place to ensure victory.
Looks like it's over.
Yes.
They can't do anything anymore.
The birdcage's strategy consists of passing the ball around
on one side of the field in order to let the time run out.
Even if the trapped team tries to get the ball back,
the team doesn't have the ability to do it.
If they try, the team will be exposed
to an attack by leaving the defense vulnerable.
You are now like birds in a cage.
This is unsportsmanship.
The match isn't fair anymore.
It can't be helped.
Soccer is a sport where the time is limited.
It's also part of the match to use this kind of strategy.
"Where the time is limited"
What will you do, Tsubasa?
In such a situation, you're the only one left.
Shuutetsu, cowards!
Play fair and square!
Yes, she's right!
It's unfair!
Aren't you ashamed as sportsmen!?
Is there really nothing
that can be done against Shuutetsu?
Hey, Wakabayashi!
We don't want to win this way!
Captain?
I don't care.
They can say what they want.
We, Shuutetsu, the national champions,
cannot permit ourselves to lose against Nankatsu!
Especially against Oozora Tsubasa.
I will never lose against the team you are playing for!
TSUBASA!
Oh, Tsubasa rushed!
Tsubasa of Nankatsu goes alone to get the ball back!
Tsubasa is coming!
Increase the speed of our passes!
Okay, got it!
We're counting on you, Tsubasa!
Tsubasa
Even Tsubasa can't do it
Even the gifted Tsubasa
can't manage to get the ball back!
Even if Tsubasa is really fast,
he can't do it on his own.
Tsubasa.
You are wasting your stamina carelessly.
To you!
Geh, nearly!
TSUBASA!
I'll get the ball back!
You, you take care of the goal!
Once I get it, I'll pass it to you!
Okay!
Ishizaki is our opponent?
That's good for us.
It's now Ishizaki, the captain, who will try
to get the ball back instead of Tsubasa!
Captain
However, he can't do anything alone!
But, they can't leave their goal either without
any defense, and expose themselves to an attack.
It's hopeless
Captain
Ishizaki
Ishizaki
Cheer up, Ishizaki!
Give it another go!
A-Anego
Yes! Go!
Cheer up, Nankatsu!
You'll break this strategy apart!
Cheer up, Ishizaki!
Cheer up, Ishizaki!
What are they saying?
We aren't the ones that got us here.
Tsubasa was the one that did all this.
If a bad soccer club like us managed
to come this far, it's thanks to Tsubasa.
If we really thought that we could defeat Shuutetsu,
if we managed to endure this training
and also win against Nishigaoka
And also, if we managed to come this far
in this match with just one goal scored by them
Isn't it only thanks to Tsubasa?
And despite that, we are continuously
only counting on him
Soccer is a sport played with eleven players!
Right, Tsubasa!?
If If we don't manage to, at least,
get the ball back, and pass it to Tsubasa
It would mean we didn't do anything!
The time
Anyway, it's sink or swim!
I'll go help the captain!
Yes, me too!
Yes!
Cheer up, Ishizaki!
Okay.
To Taki? Okay!
Taki!
Oh, Ishizaki read a pass for the first time!
Oh no!
Ishizaki jumps!
Who will get the ball!?
It's our last chance
TSUBASA!
Ishizaki got the ball back!
Damn!
And Tsubasa
gets the pass!
Great!
Nankatsu finally managed to get out of the birdcage!
Tsubasa, we're counting on you!
It's really the last chance for Nankatsu!
Go! Go! Tsubasa!
Go, Tsubasa!
Go, run!
Tsubasa crosses the halfway line!
Cheer up, Oozora Tsubasa!
Damn, they got us!
We have to stop him!
Come, Tsubasa.
We'll put an end
to this challenge once and for all!
Good, just a little further!
We won't let you, Tsubasa!
We'll stop you before you can shoot!
Great!
Tsubasa, look out!
Tsubasa dodges him by a hair width!
Great! Only one left!
Superb!
But, one last player, Izawa, came back to defend!
I won't let you pass, Tsubasa!
He passed through ! Tsubasa, with a superb feint,
got past the last opponent!
Yes, go!
Again it will be a confrontation
between Tsubasa and Wakabayashi!
Wakabayashi comes out of his goals!
Oh! Tsubasa quickly puts himself in a shooting
position! But he's still outside the penalty area!
Tsubasa Why don't you get closer before shooting?
So you persist on shooting
outside the penalty area, Tsubasa!?
He shoots!
This shot again!
Wakabayashi tries to stop it!
The ball is still in play!
Don't go in
Go in!
Oh, the ball hits the bar!
I win!
Oh, i-it's an overhead kick!
It's in! Draw!
He did it
I did it!
Tsubasa
It's gone in!
I did it!
I DID IT!
In the next episode of Captain Tsubasa :
I managed to score a goal against Wakabayashi
just before the final whistle!
We'll play in extra-time!
But, Ishizaki got injured.
It's at this point that a new student,
Misaki Tarou, appeared.
He really possesses some superb soccer skills!
Good! Now, we can defeat Shuutetsu!
Next time in Captain Tsubasa :
The birth of an explosive duo!
Kick-Off!
