What to expect from Blue Lock episode 7?

Given how Blue Lock episode 6 saw the match between Team Z and Team W enter the second half, episode 7 will most likely show its conclusion. After Kuon managed to score three goals for Team Z, he helped Team W to tie the score, after which he blatantly switched sides, helping Team W score their fourth goal, making the score 4-3.

With little time left, Isagi and the team will have to quickly devise a new strategy to defeat Team W, given how Kuon already knows about all of Team Z’s tactics. Here, Chigiri could be the key as he is yet to reveal his weapon to his teammates. Consequently, even Kuon will be unaware of it, leaving Team Z with a glimmer of hope.

Blue Lock episode 6, titled I'm Sorry, saw Kuon come up with a new plan for Team Z, which would allow each team member, except for Chigiri and Iemon, to play up front for 30 minutes each.

As Team Z vs Team W began, Kuon scored a hat-trick, helping the team take a 3-0 lead. However, in the second half, Kuon made several errors which cost Team Z three goals, causing the score to get tied.

This was when Kuon revealed how he and the Wanima Brothers from Team W had plotted against Team Z, through which Team W would end up winning while Kuon could become the top scorer for Team Z, allowing him to move forward in the selections.
