Kaneshiro, Muneyuki: Blue Lock 26

A mad young coach gathers soccer players from across the country to compete in a series of bizarre challenges in a high-tech colosseum he calls Blue Lock. It's a no-balls-barred battle to become Japan's next top striker, in this Squid Game –meets–World Cup manga, now available in print! Anime airing now! ARE YOU PREPARED TO DIE? Isagi was riding high after scoring against Ubers, but then Kaiser sent an explosive shot crashing against the net. With Isagi and Kaiser now tied on goals and Bastard München up two to one against Ubers, Germany's and Italy's masters decide to join the fray. Snuffy deploys his players with the precision of a chess master, and Bastard München soon begins to buckle under Ubers' counterattack. Can Isagi find someone to be their "sacrificial pawn" and stop Italy's advance?
