Summary[]
Team Z celebrates its first victory
At Team Z's shared room, Team Z is celebrating its first win. Team Z exchanged the two points it got from the previous game for 600g of sirloin steak. The members of Team Z also shared their meals with one another. Igaguri, having the lowest rank, asked the others if they would want some of his pickled radishes. The others refused his offer, however.
Kunigami then praises Isagi for successfully scoring the goal. Gagamaru asked Isagi if he knew where the ball was heading. Isagi, however, answered that he ran just accordingly because he wanted to score. Isagi adds that it may have been sheer luck. Bachira, on the other hand, tells Isagi that he saw Isagi, so he intentionally passed to him. Kunigami remarks that he believes Isagi's weapon is "goal scent," but he's still unsure about his conclusion.
Chigiri rewatches their match against Team Y
After their victory party, Team Z goes to sleep. Isagi, on the other hand, is unable to sleep. Isagi still feels the comfort of crushing the opponent's team. Isagi, unable to sleep, goes to the monitoring room to rewatch his goal. There he sees Chigiri watching. Chigiri tells Isagi that he too could not sleep, so he was rewatching their previous game. Chigiri then says that Isagi's weapon might be spatial perception. Isagi's weapon allows him to have a good grasp of the field, allowing him to create ideal and achievable plays instantly. Isagi then asks Chigiri what his weapon was since he refused to mention it before. Chigiri, however, refuses to tell him. After a few more pushes from Isagi, Chigiri says that he tore his ACL last year ago. If Chigiri injures himself once more, it would be too dangerous to play anymore. Because of this, Chigiri became more guarded and suppressed when he plays.
Isagi asks Chigiri what his weapon was
Chigiri's secret
Before injuring himself, Chigiri, like Isagi, had those sleepless nights after scoring goals after goals. However, the fear of getting injured and losing his dream overpowered him. After watching Isagi's football, Chigiri felt as if he can finally give up his dream. Isagi shouts at him and tells him that he is lying; Isagi believes that Chigiri does not really want to give up on football. Isagi then says that he will never throw away his dream of playing football. Chigiri, angered by Isagi's words, tells him that he does not know anything about his life. Then, Chigiri leaves the monitoring room. Isagi is left confused by Chigiri's sudden fit.
