High-octane girls' soccer action mixes with the drama of high school in this cleats-out manga from the creator of Your Lie in April!

Midori and Sumire are soccer stars at rival middle schools, destined to collide -- one's a striker, the other a goalie. But the two girls end up in the same high school, with a lazy coach and a bizarre teammate, Nozomi, who brags that she's a genius but can't seem to stop kicking the ball into her own goal. To become champions, they'll have to get over their rivalry and work some magic on the field -- not to mention the challenges of growing up.
Naoshi Arakawa debuted in 2009 with the soccer manga, Sayonara, Football, going on to create the hit classical music manga Your Lie in April, which was adapted into a successful TV anime. He is currently drawing high-school soccer manga Farewell, My Dear Cramer, which is available digitally and in print.
