The match between reigning champions Nankatsu
and Toho Academy are headed to extra time with a score of 3-3 in the finals of the National Middle School Football Tournament!
Extra time will consist of two halves of 10 minutes, each,
If the match does not reach a conclusion even after this, both teams will be declared as winners,
Nankatsu\'s Captain Tsubasa Ozora will play in the extra time despite the injuries plaguing his body,
This half will start with Nankatsu\'s kick-off,
I\'ve relied on the Drive Shot so much in this match,
I\'ve only thought about scoring with the Drive Shot alone,
It shows that I was still overly relying on Roberto,
It\'s not just Roberto,
Misaki, Wakabayashi, Ishizaki, Nankatsu\'s Eleven, and Manager,,,
Fight!
Don\'t lose!
Fight! Fight! Nankatsu!
I\'ve made it this far thanks to their help,
But after this, I will be alone,,,
When I depart for Brazil after accomplishing my V3 in this tournament, I will be alone,
Thank you, everyone,
Thank you for everything so far,
I, Tsubasa Ozora—15 years old—will score my last goal in Japan, and depart on my journey,
EPISODE 51: MIRACLE DRIVE SHOT!
The extra time kicks off!
Tsubasa dribbles through Toho\'s side by himself,
Tsubasa should be nearly exhausted, ,
We will destroy him here!
What?!
Both of them were passed in an instant!
Tsubasa still has strength left in him,
Eat this!
Tsubasa jumps first, dodging them!
Tsubasa!
Tsubasa, are you immortal or what?!
How can you still jump like that?
Tsubasa!
I will take that ball!
Tsubasa firmly blocks the ball with both his legs!
I won\'t give it back until I score!
I never will!
Stop him! Stop Tsubasa!
Damn, it\'s starting again,
It looks like my body\'s really reaching its limit,,,
But,,, I must turn this into a goal,
I will score this parting goal!
Awesome! What awesome technique he has!
Tsubasa!
Tsubasa,,,!
Tsubasa!
It looks similar,
When Tsubasa moved to Nankatsu City, his only friend was the football,
It looks similar,,,
It\'s so similar to how he looked when he alone made it past all of Shutetsu with his friend,,,
Tsubasa!
We will stop him here!
His extraordinary football sense isn\'t dulled, despite all of his injuries!
He is an all-round player with superior talent!
This is Tsubasa Ozora, the Prodigal Son of Football!
He finally manages to get past all of Toho\'s defenders,
The goal,,,
I can see the goal,
I will score this shot for sure!
However, Hyuga\'s stayed behind, having seen through his intentions!
Here I come, Tsubasa!
Bring it on!
Will Tsubasa shoot, or can Hyuga stop him first?
Which one will it be?
Sliding Tiger Shot! ,
Hyuga was a split second faster!
Tsubasa can\'t shoot the ball!
What?! ,
Tsubasa,,,
Ishizaki,,,
I,,,
We,,,
Aren\'t we your friends, Tsubasa?!
He is right, Tsubasa!
You are not alone!
We are right behind you!
Take it, Tsubasa!
Ishizaki,,,
Guys,,,
My friends,,,
I will turn Ishizaki and everyone\'s pass,,,
Tsubasa!
They will certainly stay with me,,,
My friends are with me,
I am not alone!
And when I go to Brazil, I won\'t be alone!
We\'re counting on you, Tsubasa!
They are always supporting me from behind!
His preparation for his Drive Shot and the pass are perfectly synced!
I challenge you, Tsubasa!
He isn\'t using his leg the same way he always does for the Drive Shot, ,
This is my final shot in Japan!
Here\'s my farewell goal!
I will stop that!
Even if it\'s only my right hand,,,!
It bounces!
It\'s in!
In the first minute of extra time!
Nankatsu\'s finally made a comeback with Tsubasa\'s goal!
I did it!
I scored!
You sure did!
You did it, Tsubasa!
The Nankatsu Eleven are hugging each other in joy!
The score is 4-3,
Nankatsu is leading over Toho for the first time in this match, by one goal,
It was a great shot indeed,
The shot rebounded off the ground and its severe spin sent it hurtling in the opposite direction,
It wound up thrusting into the side net!
This is probably a different application of the Drive Shot,
Tsubasa, you are the best!
A Miracle Drive Shot only Tsubasa could make!
He\'s scored his 4th goal in this match despite all of his injuries,
He is truly awesome!
This is the football prodigy that Japan\'s given birth to, Tsubasa Ozora!
You did it, Tsubasa!
We are finally leading by one goal!
We\'ve come one step closer to our dream, right?
To our dream,,,
Tsubasa?
Tsubasa!
Tsubasa?!
Tsubasa!
Tsubasa!!!
You\'ve opened your eyes, Tsubasa!
Tsubasa!
Where am I?
The infirmary,
What about the match?!
How\'s Nankatsu?
How are my friends doing?!
Tsubasa,
Tsubasa!
Stay still for a while!
The match is still in extra time,
I\'ve finally collapsed, right?
Yeah,
But you\'ve scored, Tsubasa,
Our comeback goal,
Yeah, that beautiful one last goal,
Tsubasa!
Go for it, Toho!
Attack!
Sorimachi!
Nankatsu are desperately defending!
However, their Captain Tsubasa is not on the field,
Brother, why don\'t you attack?
You can score if you shoot now,
Kojiro,,,
Guys,,,
It\'s 4-3,
Oh!
Coach, is it still the first half of extra time?
Tsubasa!
Coach! Let me go back in the pitch!
I refuse,
No can do!
Don\'t tell me someone has been subbed in in my stead?!
It\'s fine,
We didn\'t have anyone else enter for you,
They said that they would protect this lead all together,
Tsubasa\'s collapsed because we burdened him too much,
It doesn\'t matter if he can come back or not,
We will defend this first half of extra time by ourselves,
We will protect that one goal he gave us as ten people!
We implore you, coach!
They requested that from the coach,
Guys,,,
However, I cannot allow you to overuse your body anymore,
Huh?!
I am planning to have Yamamori play in the second half,
I thought you made a promise with me, Tsubasa, ,
You would withdraw from the game immediately should you collapse,
But, doctor,,,!
Why must you go to such lengths to fight?! ,
Your real dream is not Nankatsu\'s V3!
It\'s supposed to be going Brazil and becoming the best footballer in the world!
It\'s for the sake of that big dream that I can\'t afford to lose here,
I need to fight and win,
I will take full responsibility,
I don\'t care even if I die in this match,
If Tsubasa Ozora is a person that\'d be done in here,
then his dreams of Brazil and making Japan #1 in the world
and becoming the best footballer in the world,,,
None of those dreams would ever become the truth to begin with! ,"
Please, let him play,
Before winning and losing, not being able to play football is the hardest thing for Tsubasa, ,
Don\'t take football away from Tsubasa, please,,, ,
Manager,,,
You wish I\'d let you shoot!
It was a nice cut, Ishizaki,
Guys, nice defense there,
Guys! I,,, I will play!
Tsubasa!
It\'s Tsubasa!
Oh, Tsubasa Ozora who was previously out of the field due to injury has appeared in front of the bench,
Tsubasa is back!
Tsubasa!
The cleared ball goes to Hyuga,
Stop him!
He can easily score with the Tiger Shot from there!
What?!
Hyuga,,,
Tsubasa,,,
Hyuga,,,
He sent the ball out to let Tsubasa back onto the pitch again,
Tsubasa is walking back onto the pitch!
Tsubasa is,,,!
So you can play, Tsubasa!
We couldn\'t have this otherwise, y\'know!
Tsubasa!
The cheers for Tsubasa ring out like wildfire!
Tsubasa!
,
All right! We won\'t lose either!
Hyuga!
Hyuga! ,
Hyuga!
Okay, Let\'s do this, Hyuga!
Bring it on, Tsubasa!
It\'s showtime again!
Until the whistle marking the end of this match blows
we will keep fighting!
Tsubasa is doing the throw-in,
Tsubasa,,,!
What?!
Ah?!
Tsubasa sends the ball to Hyuga!
Is this response to what Hyuga did earlier?
Let\'s go, Hyuga!
Tsubasa,,,
Even though your body is totally spent,
you still,,,
Tsubasa!
Let\'s do this!
We\'re aiming to win and get our V1!
Yeah!
Hyuga blows through Tsubasa with absolutely no pity!
The Ferocious Tiger dribbles on with ferocity!
We will hold him off, everyone!
Yeah!
Damn it!
Like hell I\'d lose,,,!
Like hell I\'ll fall here!
I will keep playing until the very end of this match!
Both teams attack and defend desperately!
Oh, the ball is deflected over to Tsubasa, who just returned!
Have a taste of
our Sliding Squad!
Tsubasa is blown away once again!
You bastards! How dare you do that to Tsubasa!
A brave play from the hot-blooded Ishizaki!
Nankatsu steals the ball again!
And the ball finds its way to Tsubasa once more!
Let\'s do this,,,
Let\'s go! For Nankatsu\'s V3!
Yeah!
Come, Tsubasa!
Tsubasa is still leading Nankatsu, even while his body is falling to pieces,,,
You really are the captain,
You are Captain Tsubasa! ,
Go!
Have no pity!
For as long as he stands on the pitch, he needs no sympathy!
Crush him!
You just have to crush Tsubasa!
Yeah!
Toho\'s Sliding Squad is on the move!
Tsubasa, watch out!
He sends a pass!
Tsubasa sends a skillful pass after drawing his opponents in!
He\'s letting all the markers focus on him to let us move freely,
Don\'t you let this pass from Tsubasa go to waste!
Yeah!
We won\'t let you get to Wakashimazu!
I won\'t let that happen!
This is a perfectly synchronized triangle pass!
We should join them too, Takasugi!
Let\'s all go on the offensive!
Yeah!
Damn you!
A wise clear from Sawada!
But the ball gets to Ishizaki who\'s overlapping here!
All right! I\'ll shoot!
Watch out, Ishizaki!
He\'s behind you!
This is a nice move!
Ishizaki immediately changes it to a pass!
Wakashimazu\'s weak point,,, is here!
Izawa fires off a curved shot, aimed at the right corner of the goal!
This is a Banana Shot that\'s curving outwards!
If I can\'t become champion this next tournament, I\'ll give up football!
Ken Wakashimazu,
a man never goes back on his word!
He caught it!
Even though his body position made it hard, he stopped that shot with a one-hand diving catch!
My shot was,,,
In spite of his left arm\'s injury,
he avoided this absolute crisis with only his right hand!
Nankatsu can\'t score!
That was a perfect attack, yet,,,
I protected our goal, dad,
The first half of extra time ends with this whistle!
Tsubasa, are you okay?
Tsubasa!
Are you okay?!
Guys,,,
What is it, Tsubasa?
I,,, I want to,,,
I want to play in the second half, too!
But I can\'t move like I usually do, anymore,,,
If I\'m only bringing all of you down,
I don\'t mind being subbed out,
Tsubasa,,,
But I want to play until the very end,
I want to play with you all until the end,
Then just play, Tsubasa!
Let\'s fight together in the second half too, Tsubasa!
We have all come this far,
We will stick together until the end!
Guys,,,
Are you really fine with that?
It\'s okay if I play, despite the state I\'m in?
You bet it is!
You are our Captain! ,
Guys,,,
Mommy, when Tsubasa Ozora wasn\'t in play, my bro didn\'t even fire a single shot, right?
But that\'s fine,
Kojiro has always had his mind set on defeating Tsubasa, ,
Tsubasa, if you play any longer,,,
Still, I\'m sure that Tsubasa will play in the second half,
Yes, He will keep on playing his way until the end,
A one-goal lead,,,
If we can keep this, Nankatsu will win!
I\'m sure that Hyuga will catch up with them and make an upset!
At this rate, Toho Academy\'s dream of a triple crown with middle school, high school and university wins,,,
Mr, Principal, I already feel satisfied by how much they have fought so far in this final match,
No matter the result, I am proud of these students,
NANKATSU MIDDLE SCHOOL - SHIZUOKA PREFECTURE
All right, let\'s go with Tsubasa\'s plan,
Yeah,
We\'re already come this far, I have nothing more to say,
So as not to have any regrets, play with all you\'ve got,
Yes!
Hyuga,
The moment I let you play, I left this match in your hands,
I\'m counting on you,
Yes, sir!
The last 10 minutes of the game,,, The second half of extra time starts now,
We\'re counting on you, Hyuga! Toho!
The second half starts with Toho\'s kick-off,
Tsubasa\'s in front of the goal?! ,
That\'s,,, That\'s the tactic of using Tsubasa as a defense player,
That\'s how Nankatsu beat Shutetsu!
Bring it on, Hyuga!
I won\'t lose,,, I won\'t lose, in terms of fighting spirit!
Tsubasa is in the defense,,,
Thank you, Tsubasa,
This makes it easier for me to play,
Hyuga instantly gets in position to shoot!
It\'s a Tiger Shot!
Stop him!
Just throw yourselves in front of it!
Yeah!
What?!
Was that shot a feint?
Come on, Tsubasa!
I will start by catching up with you!
Eat this!
Tiger Shot!
Don\'t lose,
Don\'t you lose, Tsubasa!
My name is Tsubasa Ozora!
He stopped it!
Tsubasa repelled the Tiger Shot!
Tsubasa!
That is the man I aim to catch,,,
Tsubasa Ozora,,,
I will defeat you!
Are you all right, Tsubasa?
I don\'t care if you\'re injured right now,
I\'ve had enough of losing to you!
What!?
I will protect Nankatsu\'s goal!
Together with Tsubasa!
These guys,,,
All right! Now we attack!
If we go on the offensive, we can ease Tsubasa\'s burden!
We will defend!
We won\'t let you score another goal anymore!
A fierce display of attack and defense in the midfield!
Who will get the ball?
Here!
The one who tipped the scales in this melee is none other than the goalkeeper of Toho, Wakashimazu!
Captain!
Captain, our victory!
Did we not vow to become the champions?
Wakashimazu,,,
Come on, everyone!
Yeah!
Tsubasa!
Are you daunted because of that shot?
The ball is your friend,
The one who taught me that was you, right, Tsubasa?
Let\'s protect Nankatsu\'s goal together, Tsubasa!
Until the end!
Morisaki,,,
There\'s no one else but me who can help Hyuga!
Hyuga!
He\'s gonna shoot!
Stop him!
We should stop him!
No matter how amazing your Tiger Shot is,
you won\'t score if you just shoot away recklessly, Hyuga!
Don\'t panic, Kojiro!
Heed carefully!
Toho winning against Nankatsu,,,
It means me winning against Tsubasa!
What?!
Hyuga!
That\'s it, Kojiro!
The ball gets to the unmarked Sorimachi!
This is a decisive chance for Toho!
A fine save by the goalkeeper Morisaki!
I protected our goal, Tsubasa!
However, Sawada is right on this ball!
Oh no!
Here it is!
Nankatsu stops them, again!
Tsubasa takes this shot in the face and protects their goal!
The ball is my friend,,,
I\'m not afraid!
Why?
Why is it?
Why can\'t we win?
Tsubasa!
No,,,
I can\'t bear this anymore,,,
Sanae?
Stop!
Don\'t hurt Tsubasa anymore! ,
Even though he\'s this beaten up and torn to pieces, why?
What on Earth is making you go this far?
Is it your dream?
Friendship?
And why can\'t I beat you even in this state, Tsubasa?

I kept running, lying to myself
that I could live alone, though the loneliness made me burn ,

yearning for your voice
"I\'ve got to get you back right now!"
I\'m stupid, right?

Believing in my scarred love
I will turn these shedded tears into strength,
Love!
