Sae Itoshi will raise the match's level in Blue Lock season 2 episode 13 & 14
With the match's score tied at 3-3 in the 75th minute, Blue Lock XI vs. U-20 Japan National Team will enter its final showdown. Hence, just as the match resumes, Sae Itoshi declares that he is set to raise the level of the game. With that, the anime will see Sae step up a gear and make full use of his counter-dribble. Using this dribbling style, Sae is set to get past his opponents and get close to the goal by himself.
With that, fans should expect the anime to show Sae Itoshi effortlessly dribbling past the Blue Lock XI players. However, it is to be seen if he makes an attempt to score the goal himself or if he will pass the ball to Ryusei Shidou or one of the other U-20 Japan players.
Rin Itoshi will go out of control in Blue Lock season 2 episode 13 & 14
As Sae Itoshi dribbles past the Blue Lock XI players, Rin Itoshi will try to analyze Sae's thoughts and come up with a plan to shut him down. With less than two minutes remaining until the end of the match, Blue Lock XI will launch a counterattack. However, in the middle of this, Rin is set to steal the ball away from his teammates and charge into the enemy territory.
Rin Itoshi is about to go out of control in the anime's finale. His single-minded desire to surpass Sae will see him turn away from his rational play so far and toss the U-20 Japan National Team's defense in chaos. He is set to use a contrasting dribbling style to Sae, one that brings out the "best" of the opponent and then breaks through.
Ryusei Shidou will stop Rin Itoshi's attack in Blue Lock season 2 episode 13 & 14
As evident from the preview of Blue Lock season 2 episode 13 & 14, the anime will see Rin Itoshi successfully get past most defenders from the U-20 Japan National team. However, just as he will be matched up against Oliver Aiku, Ryusei Shidou is set to join the U-20 Japan Captain for defense. With that, the anime will see Rin Itoshi try and break past two players in front of the goal.
However, it is to be seen whether he succeeds at scoring the match's winner or someone else surpasses him in the match's eleventh hour.
