Embers chapter 5 will be available to read on Shueisha's MANGA Plus and VIZ Media's Shonen Jump.

Embers chapter 4 recap

Embers chapter 4, titled The First Half, saw Haitani's team decide on their formation. While Haitani was asked to play a left side-back, he didn't understand his role. Just as the match began, Yuga Takami took charge and shot at the opposition goal half a dozen times. Unfortunately, the B-Team graduates had a good defensive formation and kept the ball away from the goal.

Moments later, Inanaki initiated a counterattack for his team. While it seemed like he was clear on goal, Haitani arrived to stop him. Given the situation, Inanaki linked up with Kamegai to score the match's first goal. However, despite conceding the goal, Haitani was confident that he could stop Inanaki if they faced each other one-on-one. This gave Takami an idea.

What to expect from Embers chapter 5?

Embers chapter 5 will most likely see Yuga Takami convey his plan to stop Inanaki to Noboru Haitani. While the two players don't really like each other, considering that both players wanted to qualify for the A-Team, there is a chance that Haitani will cooperate with Takami's plan.

With that, fans can also expect to witness another match-up between Haitani and Inanaki. That said, it is yet to be seen how a plan focused on Haitani will allow Takami to score for their team.
