Tsubasa: Hey team! So the draws are taken now and our group seems pretty easy, but take them seriously! This is the 2nd round and we want to lift that World Cup trophy!
Hyuga: Of course, we are going to take this seriously Tsubasa! We won U15 World Challenge and U18 World Championship, i am really sure that we are going to the World Cup!
Misaki: Hyuga, your right but they got some new players.
Matsuyama: What do you mean new players?
Misugi: Thanks Misaki for the word! So lets start with Syria. Syria has 3 class players. First, is Al Somah which plays in the Qatar Premier League. He also got a special shot named the Ultra Speed Shot. Which goes really fast.
Matsuyama: The Ultra Speed Shot? Alright..
Misugi. And the second is Al Mawas, which has a Cannon Sho-
Tsubasa: Cannon Shot?! Isnt that belonged to Napoleon?!
Misugi: Yeah, but Arab countries are flawless right now.
Tsubasa: Ok..
Misugi: And the third is Mohammed Osman, a CM which has a Middle Eastern Tackle and a Speed Shot, The Middle Eastern Tackle is tough to dodge.
Tsubasa: Serious teams it is.
Misugi: Your right, Tsubasa. And North Korea got a player named Han Kwang Song, the North Korean Santana.
Tsubasa: Santana? Isnt that too much?
Misugi: Nah. He got a Raiju Shot and a Neo Heel Lift Dribble.
Wakashimazu: I will keep that Raiju Shot! Its on me.
Misugi: Alright everyone! So good job keeping that spirit up!
Whole team: Yeah!
Coach Mikami: Everyone! You know the draw has been completed. Misugi already said that. Our match is in 3 days!
Ishizaki: Coach, isnt that like a short time?
Mikami: No, its enough Ishizaki. Now everyone, get to the work and lets see our levels! Our first match is against Myanmar, which is pretty easy for us.
Whole team: Alright!
(3 days later, the whole team practiced and improved their shots, Hyuga has a Neo Tiger Shot now. And Tsubasa has a Neo Drive Shot now also. But their first opponent is ranked really low, coach is planning to go to the pitch with a lot of subs like Kisugi, Taki and Sorimachi.)
