It's our last chance...
TSUBASA!
Tsubasa, we're counting on you!
Nankatsu managed to get out of the birdcage!
Tsubasa is running straight towards the goal!
It's the last chance for Nankatsu!
Wakabayashi comes out of his goals!
Oh! Tsubasa quickly puts himself in a shooting position!
He shoots!
Wakabayashi saves it!
Don't go in...
Go in!
The ball hits the bar!
I win!
What!?
Goal!
It's the equalizer!
I did it!
Tsubasa...
It's gone in!
I finally did it!
We finally drew!
So, you all saw that!?
We managed to draw against the soccer pros of Shuutetsu!
And all of that, it's... Tsubasa, I love you!
Anego...!
And here's the final whistle.
Wakabayashi...
Both teams fought during 40 minutes without reaching a conclusion.
But, it isn't possible to determine the winner of this tournament with a draw.
So, what will they do?
So, the match will be resumed in 5 minutes, for two half-time of 5 minutes each.
Extra-time?
That's right!
Let's keep cheering Tsubasa to make him win!
Go! Go! Tsubasa!
Well done, Tsubasa.
Thanks.
But you really surprised me.
Seeing you using the overhead kick after the ball bounced off the bar that you only saw once.
You are really impressive.
To be honest, I find that hard to believe too...
I tried to copy you during the training, and when the ball hit the bar, I jumped without thinking.
Yes.
Tsubasa, we're counting on you to keep this determination during the extra-time!
Extra-time...? It won't be easy...
Ishizaki, is your leg alright?
Oh, that's right... The captain's leg got wounded when he cut Shuutetsu's pass...
This is nothing at all!
I saw worse things than that!
Look!
Ishizaki!
Damn... We, Shuutetsu, having so much problems...
Don't say that. If we managed to contain Tsubasa a little more by playing by the clock, we would have won.
Sorry, Captain...
Captain...
It's over.
Move, move.
Ah, teacher!
You'll have to see a doctor...
So... You won't be able to play the extra-time...?
Don't say silly things! It's not this kind of scratch which will make me...!
You can't say such things!
It wouldn't be reasonable!
You should not force yourself, you maybe have a sprain.
Who are you?
What are you doing!?
This is really a sprain.
You should recover in around 3 days.
But you are lucky, you don't seem to have a fracture.
Great! Exactly the same diagnosis as me!
Who are you?
My name is Misaki Tarou.
But, how will we do?
Our team is exactly composed of 11 players...
If the captain has to go out, we won't...
Hey, is there someone here who knows how to play soccer?
We need a substitute to replace the wounded Ishizaki!
Well, no other choice!
If no one wants to go, I'll do it.
But Anego, do you know the rules of soccer?
Not at all.
But I have a burning desire to play with Tsubasa!
Wait! If you only have a girl to offer, I'll go!
You are...
The great Urabe Hanji of Nishigaoka!
You can be relieved Ishizaki, I'll take care of everything.
"Be relieved"? You aren't even from Nankatsu.
Don't complain!
You really want to ruin such a great match by letting play someone who doesn't know how to play soccer?
A few more efforts and Shuutetsu could be defeated, the undefeated Shuutetsu!
Then, you shall better choose me instead of Urabe!
I am Kishida, the captain of Yamabuki.
I'll be more efficient than Urabe.
And also, after having watched it well, my play is really coming close to that of Tsubasa.
What!?
Ishizaki, choose me!
No, me!
No, me Ishizaki! Choose me!
Hey, both of you... Did you forget that it's an official match between Nankatsu and Shuutetsu?
Your offer is really kind, but...
Let's have a duel to see who will play! Come, Urabe!
Okay!
They really don't want to understand...
And me, could I replace you?
You?
Yes.
You aren't from Nankatsu either! I never saw you!
I'm from Nankatsu. I moved in today.
Today?
You are a new student?
Then you are really from Nankatsu, even if you're new.
But, do you really know how to play soccer with such a cute face?
A bit.
Well...
W-Who the hell are you!?
I am the one who will replace the wounded player for the match, Misaki Tarou!
What?
W-Wait! The ones who will play are us!
Tsubasa, did you see his ball control?
Yes, superb!
Yes, it's decided. Ishizaki's substitute will be Misaki Tarou!
Misaki Tarou? Hmm, Tsubasa isn't bad either, but this little Misaki, hmm...
T-Teacher...
He's so cute!
B-B-B-But what is this teacher!?
Captain...!
As I said before the match, the bet of this match was to see if Tsubasa could score a goal on me.
And, I lost this duel.
Those extra-times have no meaning for me. The match is already over.
W-Wait, Wakabayashi...!
Captain...!
Coach Mikami...!
I have enough of your spoiled kid attitude, Genzou!
"The match is over"? Look!
It's a bit too large but you'll have to deal with it!
Stop being so proud, Genzou.
You won't only lose against Oozora Tsubasa.
Do you also want to lose to the efforts of your training, and to all of Shutetsu who trusted you until now?
If this is what you want, alright. But, Genzou, I don't ever want to see you again.
Understand? Follow the formation I explained to you just now.
Yes!
Misaki, I'm counting on you to assist Tsubasa.
Yes, Coach!
Misaki!
It's true that I lost my duel against Tsubasa.
But...
First of all, I'm Shuutetsu's captain!
Captain!
Forgive me, guys! I woke up!
We'll win this match!
Understand!? Starting from now, we'll show them the true soccer of Shuutetsu!
Yes!
Okay, let's go!
Yes!
Go!
10 minutes remaining! Give everything you got!
I'm counting on you for my position, Misaki!
Go! Go!
Misaki!
Eh? Teacher Maruyama...?
TSUBASA!
Your decision was correct, Genzou.
The 5 minutes break is over, the players are on the field!
There will be two half-times of 5 minutes in this extra-time!
Wakabayashi...
Come, Tsubasa!
Ishizaki of Nankatsu, in order to be healed, have been replaced by Misaki Tarou for those extra-time.
Tsubasa!
Misaki just gave a super pass to Tsubasa, he shoots!
Wakabayashi does a diving catch!
It's again a super action by Wakabayashi!
But, Shuutetsu seem to be completely overrunned in those extra-time.
The reason is without a doubt the activity of the newly created duo composed of Tsubasa and Misaki.
That was close.
Wakabayashi is really strong.
But, Misaki, you...
Next time, we'll do it!
Until now, Tsubasa was leading Nankatsu's attacks alone,
but Misaki's participation really brings in some new offensives.
But, it's surprising that Nankatsu possesses another new player of this level!
We'll maybe...!
Not "maybe", we'll win!
Damn... What does that mean...?
After Tsubasa, a new unknown player is making his appearance in Nankatsu...
And, he's not an ordinary player.
That Misaki is rather good.
Cheer up, guys!
Whoever the opponent is, there is no need to panic!
We just have to play our soccer and everything will be fine!
Show them what Shuutetsu's secret technique is worth!
Yes!
Go!
There!
We won't let you!
Ah, Shuutetsu is attacking with short passes!
Taki!
Nice cut of Misaki!
He read the pass and cut it!
Tsubasa!
Yes!
Everyone in defense!
Tsubasa and Misaki.
What sort of attack will they show us this time?
That's great, Coach! We are completely imposing our pace in the extra-time, they are fantastic!
Yes. This was unexpected but things are turning out good.
Tsubasa and Misaki. As long as they are here, Nankatsu can't lose!
If only I knew that things would turn like that, I would have preferred to see you wounded before.
That's not nice, Coach...
Cheer up, Misaki!
Tsubasa! I'm completely into you!
Thanks to their superb pass play, Tsubasa and Misaki are only a few meters away from the goal!
Nakamoto, don't look after both of them! Focus your marking on only one!
Okay!
It's no good... We are being completely dominated in the extra-time...
If this goes on, we'll really lose.
I don't think so.
It won't be that easy to score a goal on Genzou now.
Until now, Genzou was only seeing Tsubasa as his opponent,
but now, he's playing as a captain to help his team win.
He finally understood that a soccer match couldn't be won alone.
Takasugi, Shimada! More to the left!
Okay!
Nakamoto, keep marking Tsubasa like this!
Genzou isn't obsessed anymore with Tsubasa, and is overseeing the movements of all the players.
So, he can now calmy anticipate the course of the ball.
Now ready to fight for victory, he will now be able to react instinctively to any shots.
Misaki, it's your turn!
Okay!
The ball has been passed to Misaki!
Go!
Misaki shoots!
Wakabayashi again caught it!
A very nice and lucid saving from him!
It was really a perfect shot though...
You have grown again in this match, Genzou.
You are really an exceptional person.
Oh! Here's the whistle of the end of the first half-time!
Nice lead, Genzou!
Coach Mikami!
There is only 5 minutes left to determine whether to smile or cry!
Give it your all and do your best!
Yes!
We'll perhaps manage to win this match thanks to you.
Misaki, where did you learn to play soccer?
In various places in the country.
My father is a wandering painter.
So, I could play with a lot of people by following him.
But, I am very happy to be in Nankatsu, Tsubasa.
I could meet some wonderful comrades like you.
You are really someone exceptional.
And not only in soccer, you even managed to detect Ishizaki's wound.
In fact, during my travels, I read a lot of books about soccer.
In one of them, there was an article about first aid which was very useful.
So, it was that.
Misaki! There is only 5 minutes remaining, let's do our best!
Yes!
I don't want to see someone saying that you lost because I entered the game!
Tsubasa, cheer up!
There's only a half-time of 5 minutes remaining!
The flow of the match will depend on who scores first!
This second half will start with Nankatsu's kick-off.
To you!
Oh! Shuutetsu rapidly got the ball back!
Run, Taki! Fast attack!
Shuutetsu, following their experienced strategy, passed the ball to Taki!
Taki is going forward while dribbling, his specialty!
He's giving back the ball to Izawa in the center!
Will he try to shoot!?
No, it's a lob forward!
The ball is heading towards Kisugi, the center-forward!
Kisugi does a volley shot!
The goalkeeper barely managed to box the ball!
The ball just went over the bar!
The superb fast attack of Shuutetsu was just a step away from the success!
Nice keeper!
Damn!
But, Shuutetsu's chance isn't over yet.
This is the first corner of the extra-time.
Kisugi, the striker!
Izawa with his really good jumping skill!
And Takasugi, the very tall sweeper, also goes up.
Be careful, guys! You have to take care of Shuutetsu's set play!
Keep your eyes on the ball!
Okay!
Taki is going to do the corner.
Taki!
Send the ball!
Captain!?
Incredible! Wakabayashi, the goalkeeper, goes up to attack as well!
Taki kicks it! Oh, it's...!
Wakabayashi does a long shoot!
It's in!
What a superb and impressive set play from Shuutetsu! And a great shot from Wakabayashi!
As planned from him. To manage to have such a lucidity in such situation...
Wakabayashi's shoot power is superior compared to the other field players.
To see Wakabayashi doing this long shoot...
2-1 ! Shuutetsu is leading!
Shuutetsu just scored a crucial goal!
Captain, there isn't much time remaining, what do we do?
We keep the ball to let the time pass, "the birdcage"?
Is it really what you want?
Won't you have any regrets if we win this way?
Captain?
Let's do more than just protecting this goal, let's ensure our victory by scoring another goal!
Yes, you're right!
Coach, don't you think that Shuutetsu, but above all Wakabayashi, seem different?
Yes. I was thinking of the same thing.
Until now, his tenacity for the victory was only directed towards Tsubasa.
Now, he's passionated by the game.
We won't lose either!
Tsubasa! Everyone! The match is not over, anything is possible!
Everyone, the match isn't over yet!
Even if it's not much, there is some time remaining!
Yes! Didn't we promise ourselves before the match to give everything we got so we won't have any regrets?
In fact, we could be satisfied to have come this far, but we won't!
The draw! No, let's see bigger, the victory!
Yes!
I am new, but I am still a member of Nankatsu.
I'll do my best!
Okay, it's our turn now!
I trust you! Tsubasa, I have faith in you!
Well, if it's like that, whole-heartedly until the end!
Go! Go! Tsubasa!
First minute of the second half-time, Shuutetsu is now leading with a goal from their goalkeeper.
Nankatsu will have to equalize again!
Tsubasa!
Yes, we'll equalize!
Let's go!
In the next episode of Captain Tsubasa :
As planned from them, Shuutetsu scored a goal again!
Furthermore, the goal was scored by Wakabayashi!
He's really incredible!
4 minutes remaining, we have to equalize no matter what!
The last chance that Misaki managed to get,
this last ball towards which Wakabayashi, Misaki and myself are throwing on!
Next time in Captain Tsubasa : To bet everything on the last chance!
Kick-Off !
