Twenty-five minutes into the first half, Tsubasa and Misaki combine forces to tie up the game. Schneider now is even more revved up and goes head-to-head with Goalie Wakabayashi. Then Schneider boldly unleashes his Fire Shot. The result? Sparks fly.

With that 1-1 tie, our players
are most certainly evenly matched.
Sie haben zum Eins zu Eins ausgeglichen
Le Japon a recollé à 1 partout.
Ora che hanno raggiunto il pareggio dell'1-1,
Com o empate de 1-1, os
jogadores estão ombro a ombro!
Счёт 1:1! Кажется, у команд снова
равные шансы!
