Manshine City vs FC Barcha

That's my thougts of how may the main storylines in this match will be closed at the end of NEL's arc. I guess that's speculation for the spin off manga.

Bachira GOAL The match begins with a solo. If I had to imagine a goal I would think of the action of the match between Blue Lock XI and Japan U-20, where this time Bachira made no mistakes, to make the improvement clear. I find it preparatory that it is Bachira himself who enters the competitive flow first, without anyone's help or the force of desperation. Our monster's ego is individualistic and free to express itself when it wants, unlike Nagi who at this moment needs stimulation and motivation. I also think it would be symbolic to relive the interaction between Bachira and Nagi in the second selection, but in reverse.

Nagi GOAL (Chigiri Assist) Bachira's goal and the new awareness of the distance between Nagi and the FC Barcha star awaken the ego of the lazy genius. Driven by the will to react and by frustration, he relies on Chigiri's individual ability. He abandons the game plan established with Reo and triggers a chemical reaction with the princess. (If Kunigami stops at just one assist in the match against PXG, I think Chigiri's contribution will also be limited to one assist in the last match of the NEL.)

Agi GOL (Reo Assist) Reo understands the advantages and possibilities of playing more freely, without having to worry about Nagi. Thus he aligns himself with Agi's ideas and shows that he wants to abandon the path of codependency. Reo reaches top performance and makes an assist for Agi.

Lavinho GOAL Barcha's Master Striker doesn't want to lose even the last match, so he takes the field to help the team win. Prince also wants to help his players achieve victory. Lavinho charges, but is stopped by the number two striker in the world. Prince puts aside his selfishness to assist his pupils, while Lavinho, driven by the hunger for victory, reaches his peak performance and finally scores. Nagi is fascinated by how the "so seeming solo play" was actually a team's effort. Everybody partecipated moving freely and expressing their own game, witohout touching the ball.

Reo GOAL (Nagi Assist) Nagi has an awakening. He realizes how many impulses and ideas can come from his teammates even if they don't involve him directly. When he finally receives the decisive ball, the idea comes to mind to assist the only free player: Reo Mikage. The assist for Reo is the most spectacular assist in the Neo Egoist League.
