What to expect from Blue Lock episode 19?

Blue Lock episode 19 will first see Isagi, Nagi, and Barou pick their new teammate from the opposing team. Given that Isagi was the man of the match, there is a good chance that his teammates will allow him to pick the new addition to their team.

Isagi had previously expressed his desire to get Chigiri on board, and thus, there is a good chance that the speedster is set to join Isagi, Nagi, and Barou as their teammate. Soon after that, they will head to the fourth stage, where Isagi might instantly challenge Rin Itoshi for a match between their teams as he plans to take Bachira back from them.

Recap of Blue Lock episode 18

Blue Lock episode 18, titled The Lead Actor's Stage, saw Isagi taking over the protagonist's role on the field from Barou, as his glare was enough to force the latter into passing the ball to him. Isagi scored the goal, tying the game, following which the next goal was going to end up being the winning goal.

While Isagi and Nagi successfully planned a countermeasure against the Red team's attacking pattern, Barou was the one who stole the show as his mind subconsciously did not allow him to pass either to Isagi or Nagi. Instead, Barou dribbled the ball with chop feints and scored the winning goal.
