"Whoever we're up to we must fight our fullest." Kazemaru said
Back at Asuto's room
From the look of it he is treating his left shoulders ever since that that soccer with Yurika it feels quite heavy on the side
"Whatever happen… I'm gonna play tomorrow." Asuto looked seriously and doing the Last Resort put it a bit of a strain he also told Sekiya but not the full details it has been a lot better but still…

"We've finally come here." Anna said
"Yeah." Tsukushi said
Larkee just look seriously that this match will or will not go as planned
The match begins as both team give it their all from the start firstly Froy went in to the attack as Rus shows Froy his attack
"Innocent Drive!"
"Diamond Arm!"
Endou catches the shot with ease and the team makes a pass as Goujin shot his shot
"Fire Lemonade Rising!"
"Take a pinch!"
The shot is stop by Yuri who becomes a goal keeper
"That's Goran techniques." Hiiura said as Yurika looked at the bench as Bernard is now also the acting coach
Flashback that night
"Everyone hear me out tomorrow is a big day so…" Froy said as they had guest
Bernard went in as he look at Russia Team
"Chairman!" The team said
"Everyone we'll be facing against inazuma japan so we'll need a back up I propose another way." Yurika said
"All of you please come in." Bernard sighed
"Who are they?" Malik asked
"They are my teammates I'll be teaching you our way of soccer." Yurika said seriously
"Your way of soccer?" Malik asked
"We'll be happy to help the chairman after all we've done." The goalkeeper said
"We are supposed to be prepared for Irina-sama grand team but it was stopped by the overseer so that is why I stand tall here with your team we had a second chance as the chairman given us." YUrika said
"So you are a former orion?" Malik asked
"Nope I'm still an Orion at heart but I'm not a puppet of Irina anymore." Yurika said
The team is hesitant at first but Froy reassure them that this was for a good cause
"Then I'll be teaching of what I know to all of you and also Froy.." Bernard pat Froy's head
As the ball passed to Feoy he pass it to Yurika
"Here she comes." Asuto looked seriously
"Impact Tactics: Requiem Assault."
The team went on a fast paced shadow passes as the ball hits back to Yurika
"Orion Cross Viper!"
Yurika launched her attack technique as Endou tried to block it with diamond hand but it fails just as it went in asuto pitch in and take the shot elsewhere
"Thank you asuto." Endou said
"No problem." Asuto smiled
"His training paid off." Larkee looked at Asuto
The match went into full gear as both team make a hard play and pass that one wrong move will score them a goal as the fierce play by play by Froy and Hikaru makes it harder
"Both teams are making the match into full gear don't you think so Reinaldo?" Clario asked
"Yeah but… what is this feeling?" Reinaldo looked at it as he thought
"What an awesome match fitting with the best players." The captain of brazil said
"It's certainly is a good match." Zhao said
"Everyone is having a serious match but nobody knows that…" He thought
"Yosh." Asuto said as he thought but that his shoulder strain again as he can't see clearly but he still push it and block Yurika's way
"You're a persistent one Asuto but this battle is mine.' Yurika push her way through Asuto which she uncounsciously got through asuto's shoulder which made him fall and it hurts for him at this point of the stage and the referee calls it on a time out
"What is going on here?! Inamori Asuto is down." Max commentated
"Is there something wrong?" Kakuma commented
"I told him not to push so hard he isn't at his best condition." Sekiya sighed
"Sorry Sekiya-san and coach." Asuto said as he feels a bit light headed
"But I'm fine now… It's no biggie." He smiled forcefully
"You better sit this one hot head." Fudou appeared out of nowhere
"Fudou-san?" Asuto looked a bit surprise
"Your injury is finally healed?" Zhao asked
" Barely made it but yeah I'm fully healed I want to only watch the match but seeing you like this…" Fudou looked seriously
"You can barely made it the first half heal yourself up it's what kidou would say right now." He sighed as he looked at Asuto but he just looked in defeat
"Got it." Asuto is being subbed by Fudou just the first half
"So you sub him this quick does the team really desperate." Yurika asked
"Hmm we sub him because he is the main star I can't let him injure himself the way he is now he isn't gonna last." Fudou thought as annoying as he is Asuto is still an asset to them especially after the america's match his view of him instantly change
"Let's go huh Malik with our new technique." FRoy said while smiling
"Yeah!" Malik and Froy goes into a fast break as orchestrated by Yurika
"Haahhh!" Malik shot from a far as Froy shot the ball a few times to the sky as Malik showed by dark Froy is the light
"Innocent- Corrupt Ray!"
It's a dual version of Froy 's innocent ray as Malik is shown to be in a dark version
The shot goes to Endou as the shot
"Diamond Hand!"
Endou tried to block the attack but it went through as Asuto sit in the bench he is looking at it with anticipation
"So this is what it feels seeing from the sideline." He said
'The anticipation the play you'll feel it." Nishikage added
"Goal! Russia's combination duo got the goal in and break the tie how will Inazuma Japan will counter this?!" Max shouted as the Inazuma Japan looked at Froy
"Show me your plays inazuma Japan." Froy looked as the plays are getting more intense
