Aoi Ashito is an ace of a weak soccer team at a junior high school in Ehime. His play almost gets the team to the semi-final in his last tournament in junior high, but provoked by the opponent’s goalie, Ashito receives a red card and is removed from the game. While Ashito is running on the beach to forget the frustration, mysterious Fukuda Tatsuya, who calls himself the manager of Tokyo City Esperion Youth team, approaches Ashito.
We took the time to visit these guys,
 so let's play some soccer together!
!أخذنا من وقتنا لزيارة هؤلاء الرّفاق، تعال لنلعب كرة القدم سويًّا
Wenn wir schon mal hier sind,
sollten wir auch Fußball spielen.
Puisqu’on est là,
faisons une partie !
Già che siamo venuti a vederli, 
perché non ci facciamo una partita?
Já que viemos, bora jogar uma partida!
Давай-ка в футбол зарубимся,
не зря же мы пришли сегодня!
