"Are you sure you can play, I mean, maybe you should just sit this one out," you said looking worriedly at the player who was handing over his crutches to you.

"I promise I'll be extra careful, I already missed the semi-finals so I can't afford to miss this one," Asuto smiled before placing a reassuring hand on your shoulder when you still didn't seem convinced. "Don't worry about me, Manager. I promise I'll score the winning goal, just for you!" he said, a little of his excitement started to rub off on you.

"I look forward to it,"

"C'mon, Asuto, let's go!" Goujin said before pulling the midfielder out of the house. "Bye!"

You smiled as you watched the bus pull out from the driveway.

It was finally time for the final match and you knew everyone really wanted to participate in it.

Following Nishikage's earlier request, Nosaka didn't play in the last match. You spoke with coach again to see if he could allow the same thing to happen again today but unfortunately, coach had refused, saying that, Nosaka was one of the main key to winning this match and since he hadn't gone to the hospital to do any tests, you had no official medical record to back up your claim. You just hoped that he would last until the end of the game.

You on the other hand, had to take Haru back to the vet to check on his progress. You were very happy when you had noticed the faintest amount of fur already sprouting on his neck and back.

You still had a little more time before the match started so you decided to make a quick visit and asked Matteo to accompany you.

You didn't want to waste anytime there at all, wanting to get home as quick as possible so that you could witness the first half but as your luck would have it, you only made it back during halftime.

"How are they holding up?" you asked as you plopped down on the couch, facing the tv.

"Though China is leading with one point, they still seem to be holding their ground," Olivia replied.

"But that your coach, I think he has something up his sleeve,"

"What makes you say that?" you asked looking at the screen intently, trying to see if you would find something off about your coach.

"Well, for someone who's currently losing, that smirk on his face says it all" This time, it was Matteo who answered.

"Let's just see what they have in store for the next half," you ended up not even having to wait that long to find out as in the next two minutes, the players were called back to the field.

"The second half for the Asian Football Championship is finally underway! China is pulling ahead of Japan with the score being 1-0, will this be Japan's time to strike back or will China end up being crowned victorious?!" the commentator announced.

"What's this?!Japan has made a few changes to their starting lineup! Nosaka Yuuma has been switched to forward and Tatsuya Kiyama to midfield! What is their coach thinking?!"

"I don't think this is a good idea. Shouldn't they focus on defence so the opposing team doesn't score again?" Olivia asked.

"That was what I was also thinking. China possesses an overwhelming offense so why is he weakening the team's defence? Does he have something in mind?" Matteo asked, turning to you.

"We can't really say as no one really gets coaches ideas right off the bat. We'll just have to see how this plays out" you replied.

The referee then blew the whistle for the kickoff to start. And just as expected, with one less defender, Shirou and Kazemaru had to work twice as hard to defend.
