What to expect from Blue Lock chapter 216?
Blue Lock chapter 216, Stealth Kill, will most likely show fans how the Ubers executed their attack and what helped them score the equalizing goal. While Ubers did have a short counterattack, the players did not immediately try and score the goal but passed it around until they matched a certain requirement.
Elsewhere, Isagi will most likely try and analyze the goal as he will hope to decide on a counter against it and try and execute the same in the upcoming chapters. As for Ness, he could take the opportunity to mock Isagi for losing the ball to their opponents.
Recap of Blue Lock chapter 215
Blue Lock chapter 215, titled Successor, saw Ubers resuming their short counterattack as they passed the ball between themselves. While Gagamaru had his eye on Barou, he was shocked to see that he even passed the ball. Nevertheless, Barou did score the goal by concealing himself behind his teammates.
The chapter also featured a flashback from Italian Stratum as Barou refused the idea of playing by Snuffy's ideology. Regardless, the master striker was seemingly able to convince Barou by revealing his tragic past and how he lost his best friend after they lost themselves to football.
