Blue Lock chapter 215, titled Successor, will most likely see Ubers resume their counterattack as the team collectively stole the ball back from Isagi. Compared to the Bastard Munchen's fragmented team, the entire Ubers team worked together during their attack and defense, which gave them an edge over their opponents.

With Isagi and the Bastard Munchen having lost the ball in a vulnerable spot, they will have to quickly come up with some way to stop Ubers. Here, Raichi might play a key role as he is yet to show his skills as a defensive midfielder for his team. Thus, the spotlight could shift to him.


Recap of Blue Lock chapter 214

Blue Lock chapter 214, titled Work!, saw Aiku and Lorenzo being impressed with Isagi's lefty shot. However, both of them had the idea that it was just a fluke. Moments later, as the match resumed, the Ubers were slowly building up their attack as the chapter then transitioned to the flashback of when the Blue Lock and U-20 players first arrived in Italy's stratum.

There, master striker Marc Snuffy revealed his footballing ideology. He believes that a football club is a company and its players are its employees. Players will be given specific tactics that are bound to help them win. If they fail, the blame falls back on Snuffy. This new ideology left the players excited.

Back in real-time, the chapter showed Isagi stealing the ball from Ubers, only to lose it again to them moments later. The moment showcased how Ubers worked as a team as opposed to Bastard Munchen.
