Summary[]

Baro passes through Imamura and Kuon with nutmegs
Isagi is blocking Baro from passing. To pass Isagi, Baro does a heel flick. This move amazes Isagi, making him unable to react quickly. After that, Baro was able to pass through Kuon and Imamura with nutmegs. Baro then kicks the ball towards the net. The goalkeeper, Iemon, failed to stop the ball, resulting in the goal of Team X. After Baro's goal, his teammates were ecstatic and joyful. Baro, however, stated that he is not scoring in this match to make friends. He remarked that his teammates' sole purpose is to make him shine, declaring that he is the one true king. On the other hand, Team Z was not pleased with Team X scoring. Igaguri blamed Iemon for failing as a goalkeeper; Kuon tried calming the other players, and Raichi blamed Isagi for his incompetence as a forward. Raichi then told Isagi to stick on defense instead. The game resumes.

Igaguri steals the ball from Bachira
Since Team Z's players were playing selfishly, Isagi decided to pass between himself and Bachira alone. As the ball was going to Bachira, Igaguri stopped it. Igaguri told Isagi that Blue Lock's first selection was not about which team wins or loses. Instead, the important characteristic is the will to score as many goals as one can.
Unfortunately, the ball was stolen from Igaguri by a player from Team X. To take advantage of Team Z's meltdown and selfish playstyle, players from Team X decided to pass all the balls to Baro to win. Isagi, seeing Team X playing as a team, considered Team Z's win as hopeless and impossible. Leaving Baro unmarked will allow him to score; however, if all of them covered him, players from Team X will be left open.
The game reached a score of 5-0 with Team X in the lead. To make a comeback, Bachira suggested that he and Isagi must score to win. The chapter ends with Isagi stating that he must become the foundation for Team Z, like how Baro is the foundation for Team X.
