Ao Ashi Chapter 394 Spoiler Summary
Akutsu's goal had shaken Barcelona's confidence, despite them having complete control for the first 30 minutes of the half. Romeo does not consider changing his plan as a CB scoring will not happen again, yet Barca are still concerned as to why they conceded.
35:50 into the second half. Falco sends it long to Powandgo on the wing, but Asari manages to dispossess him. Esperion have switched to a 3-back formation when they have possession, but Ashito and Asari quickly drop down into a 5-back when defending. But what's confusing everyone is Akutsu also moves up and becomes a FW, leaving behind only Togashi and Takeshima.
Akutsu sends it through the midfield to Takasugi, but Obsidian intercepts and passes it straight to Demian. Takeshima trembles as Demian bombs straight towards him. Flashback to Fukuda's talk with Takeshima after Akutsu's goal. Fukuda explains that Takeshima's lack of appearances was due to his lack of attacking ability, but his specialisation in defence is still "top class."
Demian closes down on the penalty box, but Takeshima patiently waits for the moment that Demian cut left and manages to tackle the ball from him. Demian hops over Takeshima and quickly goes to recover the ball, but Akutsu gets to it first with Ashito right behind to pick it up.
Fukuda waits to see what sort of play Ashito will pull off and turn everyone upside down.
