The match between Esperion and Musashino will determine who will dominate the Tokyo Metropolis League. Musashino's ace, Kaneda, takes advantage of the weak coordination between Togashi and Takeshima, giving Musashino a go-ahead score. Right before the end of first half, Kuroda injures himself due to his desperate defense play. During the halftime, Asari blames the center-backs, but Date disagrees with him. Togashi has resented Takeshima for a long time, but now…
If you two aren't solid as a defensive unit, 
there's no way we can win!
!ما لم تكن وحدتكما الدفاعية محكمة، لا يمكننا أن نفوز
Wenn ihr hinten nicht richtig zumacht,
können wir vorne nichts anrichten.
Si no son una pareja defensiva sólida,
no vamos a poder ganar.
Si no sois una pareja defensiva sólida,
no vamos a poder ganar.
Si vous défendez pas comme il faut,
on peut rien faire !
Se non ci pensate voi a difendere,
Se vocês não conseguirem defender direito,
não temos muito o que fazer!
Если вы центр закрывать не начнёте,
мы точно проиграем!
