Original subtitles

A single mistake can mean elimination...

in the second GIFA Cup.

Eight teams battled through a string of close matches...

for a shot at the trophy.

Looking back at this cup, what comes to mind is...

that dreams come true if you want them badly enough.

Yes. For the first time ever,

we saw 11 goals in a single match.

The goals have been pouring in...

throughout the GIFA Cup.

(40 goals in total in a record-breaking scoring spree)

We've seen more goals than ever before in Shooting Stars history.

This has also been a tournament full of upsets.

That's right.

Last season's finalists, FC World Class and FC National Team Family,

suffered shocking first-round exits.

It seems like every match has brought a surprise.

Please write down which team you think is the weakest and why.

FC One the Woman got three votes.

(Written off as the weakest team...)

(and sent to the last-place match)

FC One the Woman, which was in the last-place decider last season,

has scored ten goals, the most among the teams...

in this GIFA Cup final.

- Mashima is unbelievable. - How did that go in?

(Four straight matches with a hat trick)

Mashima is really good.

And there it is, a hat trick! Mashima.

(Mashima can't stop scoring.)

Nice one!

We thought she was done, but no.

Another hat trick. Mashima has been the player...

making all the difference for FC One the Woman today.

The SBS Cup champion is...

FC Balladream!

Bo Kyung has really hit top form again...

for FC Balladream.

If she and SEOGI can really click as an attacking duo,

FC Balladream could lift a trophy again for the first time in years.

FC Balladream is always trying something.

- And they do it so quickly. - They just keep making things happen.

FC Balladream doesn't have a weak link.

It's our first final in three years,

so we'll do whatever it takes to bring that trophy home.

We know exactly what it feels like to win.

That's why we're more determined than ever to win this one.

(Which team will make history...)

(by wanting it more?)

Oh, my!

- Hello! - They're here.

Who will take home the trophy?

Oh, look at the blue!

(The second GIFA Cup trophy only one team can claim)

- Oh, my. Look at that. - The trophy!

Come to us.

Come to us.

I'm drinking out of that trophy if we win.

Play well today.

I just want to hold it once. I want to lift it.

- Like this. - I just want to do this once.

I really want to win. I really want to beat them.

Even beyond winning the title, I want to beat FC Balladream.

We've never beaten...

FC Balladream before.

(The most painful memory of them all)

It's a match I couldn't forget, even if I tried.

FC Balladream scores the opening goal.

Against a disorganized FC One the Woman,

their skillful players are passing and shooting at will...

and piling on the goals.

(FC One the Woman conceded a staggering seven goals.)

But there's nothing FC One the Woman can do.

- Right. - We've never seen anything like this...

in Shooting Stars history. Five goals in the first half.

With Yu Mi out,

we lost badly, 7-3.

I can still remember it so clearly.

Facing FC Balladream in the final...

really feels like something out of a drama.

I want to turn the worst match I can never forget...

into the best match I'll remember for the rest of my life.

FC One the Woman will win the title...

because I have a promise to keep.

One final showdown will decide their fate.

The match between FC One the Woman and FC Balladream will begin shortly.

(The day of the final)

(Seven hours before kick-off, 6 a.m.)

(Too excited to wait, YEWON arrives early.)

(Vlog on)

(Final day: Can we win again after three years?)

Today's the big final, FC Balladream versus FC One the Woman.

I got here an hour and a half early,

rounded up all the blankets I could find,

and now I'm getting ready to sleep...

by the restroom.

I wish the others would get here soon.

No one's here yet.

I really want to win today. Think we'll do well?

Let's do this!

(You can do it, YEWON.)

We're really in the final.

How long has it been since FC Balladream made the final?

- Two years and nine months. - Two years and nine months.

- Seriously? - Yes.

- That's way too long. - It really has been.

It's been so long since we won a title.

Minseo, Kyoung Seo, Lisa,

and I keep saying...

it feels a lot like when we won the title.

We have the same mindset we had back then.

Back then,

we went into every match thinking we just needed one more,

and that carried us all the way to the title.

And this time,

we all seem to be coming together...

with the same mindset we had three years ago.

Today, I'm going to leave everything out there...

and just run without holding anything back.

(FC One the Woman locker room)

(Exhaling)

(A heavy silence hangs over the room.)

It's tense in here.

You can really feel it in this room.

We have to bring our best today.

Yes.

This isn't just another match.

Right.

Look at this.

I think they're faking the "hold on."

(She spots an FC Balladream tactic.)

Then they suddenly make their move.

(Fake-out No. 1)

"Hold on."

They're trying to confuse the defenders and pull them out of position.

That opens up space here too.

Right.

- They get confused and can't react. - Oh, you're right.

So whatever FC Balladream throws at us,

we just need to stick to what we've been doing.

Okay.

- Na Gyeong. - Yes.

- Look at this. - Say you get past her.

When they put pressure on her, Saori makes the run.

- But... - She got beaten.

Just sprint over like this,

then stop right in front of her.

- Even if you get pushed off the ball. - Yes.

And one last thing.

FC Balladream comes out with a lot of energy...

right from the start.

Even if we're behind, we need to say, "It's okay. We can do this."

So from the opening whistle,

we need to keep telling each other we can do this.

- Right. - Of course,

calling it a final adds pressure,

but we've always been at our best in elimination matches,

with our backs against the wall.

So today, play like losing means we're dead last,

like we won't get to play again...

- if we lose. - Yes.

- Let's go! - Let's do this!

(One final hurdle to the title)

Look at that.

That looks amazing.

- We're taking it home. - It's ours!

We made it.

We have to win this.

Let's go!

We got this. Let's go!

Hello!

(FC Balladream, back after three years)

Right?

(Who will finally end the long wait?)

- Let's go, FC One the Woman! - Let's go, FC One the Woman!

(FC One the Woman 2026 supporters)

(With both teams' supporters back in the stands,)

(warm-ups begin.)

Let's go, FC One the Woman!

Let's go, FC Balladream!

- You look so pretty today. - Let me warm up my voice.

(TRUEDY and Tak, two of the show's powerhouse voices)

A, B, C, D.

(He's caught in the crossfire.)

Let's go, FC One the Woman!

- Let's go! - All right!

Go, FC Balladream!

Go, FC Balladream!

Let's do it!

Hear this, one and all!

My ears have been clogged lately, so this actually feels kind of nice.

Tak.

- Your voice... - You're going to have a tough day today.

That's reassuring.

(And another familiar face beside Tak)

- It's so good to see her again. - Really.

You have no idea how much strength this gives us.

They're a huge source of support for FC Balladream.

"I'm Not Alone."

I wanted to show them that they're not alone.

Could the three of you sing just a little of "I'm Not Alone" for us?

- Do you know the lyrics? - Yes.

Just a little, please.

- When things get tough, look to the sky - Look to the sky

- I'm never truly alone - I'm never truly alone

- Even through the rain and bitter winds - And bitter winds

The sun will always shine again

Amazing!

We should release this again.

- Our harmonies are surprisingly good. - This is pretty good.

- It sounds really nice. - Our voices sound good together.

- Thank you! - FC Balladream!

- Thank you. - You'll do great.

- Thank you so much. - You're going to win.

- You got this! - We got this!

With you here, we've got this.

With this being the final, expectations are higher than ever.

FC Balladream's left-footed ace is a key part of their outstanding teamwork.

SEOGI, the best passer in Shooting Stars,

will once again be the starting point of their attack today.

FC Balladream truly excels at combination play.

That's right. They've prepared...

almost telepathic passes...

into the space for Bo Kyung or Kyoung Seo.

Yes.

(Stefanie Michova, FC World Class and Beenzino's wife)

I have a feeling.

I feel like FC Balladream will win.

- FC Balladream? - Yes.

Has FC Balladream ever won before?

They won once in the past.

And FC One the Woman?

- They haven't won yet. - Not once?

- That's intense. - Right.

FC One the Woman has been the only team in Shooting Stars...

without a title for five years, so they're hungrier for the championship than ever.

That's right.

I think we are gradually catching up to her pace of improvement.

That's why we are Yu Mi's Cells.

They have prepared an ultra-attacking strategy...

that pushes Yu Mi's Cells, So Hee, Hyun Jin, and Na Gyeong...

all the way up to the goal at once,

as if the cells were dividing.

Then which team has the advantage,

a team that has won a title before or one that has not?

A team that has won before has composure,

but the desperation of a team that has never won...

- often proves even stronger. - Right?

Yes.

Both teams are making their way onto the field.

(Referees, Oh Hyun Jung, Kim Ji Hee, Match commissioner Kim Jin Hee)

Let's go!

(Taking the first step...)

(toward the stage of their dreams)

The GIFA Cup trophy...

is now sitting on the field.

FC Balladream, let's go!

Let's do this!

Let's go.

We can do this.

(The trophy will find its owner today.)

- This is too exciting. - I might tear up.

- Let's leave no regret. - What?

- Leave no regret. - Sure.

Leave no regret.

FC One the Woman, let's go!

FC Balladream, let's go!

(Shouting)

Are your ears ready for this?

- Yes, I'm ready. - Are your eardrums ready?

My eardrums are already blown out on both sides.

You won't have an ear infection.

I want to make this final match a great one.

I will play as if it really is my last.

At our last training session on Sunday...

I trained as if it were the last one.

If I had one last thing to say...

Since this is the match...

I think this could truly be...

the perfect last dance.

She scores an equalizer.

(The last dance toward the trophy)

Here is FC One the Woman's starting lineup.

KISUM is in goal.

Yu Mi and Mashima form the defensive duo.

Hyun Jin and Hee Jun are in attack,

while Na Gyeong and So Hee start...

on the bench.

Here is FC Balladream's starting lineup.

Lisa is in goal.

Bo Kyung and Minseo are in defense,

with SEOGI and Kyoung Seo forming the attacking duo.

Ben and YEWON start on the bench.

I'm going to lose my voice today.

Exactly.

(Now playing "UNBREAKABLE" by Seomoon Tak)

We should manage it well...

so we can last until the end.

We have a formidable rival in cheering.

- Let's go! - Let's go!

FC One the Woman!

- Let's go! - Let's go!

Let's go!

(The players are gathered on the field.)

(One last greeting before the final battle)

(One last affirmation before the final battle)

(Each prepares for the last dance in their own way.)

Which team will have the honor...

of lifting the championship trophy?

- Stay with us until the very end. - Mashima, stay there.

Hyun Jin, you watch Bo Kyung.

Let's go!

The final showdown at Shooting Stars Stadium on Ganghwa Island.

FC One the Woman versus FC Balladream...

begins now.

- Bo Kyung. - After the kick-off,

they're pressing right away.

Bo Kyung kicked it long.

Kyoung Seo follows. The ball is spinning.

Yu Mi safely shields the ball...

and wins the ball for FC One the Woman.

Yu Mi is showing her defensive awareness as well,

cleverly letting the ground ball run out.

Kyoung Seo.

Kyoung Seo is following Mashima around...

in a man-to-man role.

Let's see what kind of buildup Coach Byung Ji will create with KISUM.

- Okay. Yu Mi, go out. - Yu Mi.

KISUM. Give it to KISUM.

(Charging forward without hesitation)

Spread out.

Okay, let's go!

You have to block it while moving forward.

KISUM joins the buildup from the back,

but the pass is a little short.

Do it again.

- KISUM. - Push forward.

Go out.

She kicks it up.

Nice.

- Lisa grabs it with ease. - Hyun Jin, you have to go right away.

(KISUM finishes the attack before dropping back.)

Coach Byung Ji is using this modified buildup from the back.

With KISUM involved, they're moving forward...

in a 2-3 formation.

With the defensive line dropping this deep,

more space can open up for KISUM.

Yes.

- Nice, Lisa. - Okay.

It's FC Balladream's goal kick.

Since the last match,

Lisa has been keeping things simple whenever she gets the ball,

quickly going for a throw or a kick.

- Go, Hyun Jin. Forward! - Hyun Jin gets the ball.

Hyun Jin passes to the side.

- But Minseo intercepts. - Spread out.

Kyoung Seo. Bo Kyung backs her up.

When the opposition has full possession,

FC One the Woman also drops back into the midfield area.

Once again to the right. That was a great ball!

A powerful right-footed shot from Bo Kyung.

(A powerful shot skims the crossbar.)

Nice, Bo Kyung!

(Kick Bo Kyung rock and roll)

Nice, Bo Kyung!

Bo Kyung's shot...

is right at the height KISUM struggles with.

It just drops sharply...

- or goes up. - Right.

Hyun Jin, this is yours.

- I'm watching Minseo. - No.

They're switching up!

Hee Jun, SEOGI was yours just now.

It's FC One the Woman's goal kick.

Spread it out a bit wider.

They're not charging in, so take your time.

Keep defending as you move! Keep defending!

Keep defending and go. It's okay.

She takes a shot right away, but it deflects.

Hyun Jin turns around. She passes.

She passes toward Hee Jun, but it was short. Minseo.

- Hyun Jin defends. - Minseo is looking great.

She passes to Bo Kyung.

That's a no-look pass, but Yu Mi intercepts it.

Big Yu Mi!

SEOGI.

Mashima, go.

Mashima is at the back.

Kyoung Seo follows.

FC One the Woman has left some space open at the back.

Hee Jun!

It's FC One the Woman's kick-in.

It's ours.

They could be really dangerous with the kick-in.

They're so good at it.

- Mashima scored a lot with that. - Right.

Mashima scored a lot in this situation.

They will prepare for a kick-in from a high position.

(And this particular spot)

Don't dodge it.

Mashima prepares for the kick-in.

Mashima shoots!

It goes in!

Mashima gets the ball.

She scores the first goal.

(She showed FC Balladream as well.)

FC One the Woman gets ready for the set-piece.

(That exact spot)

The other side.

Mashima prepares to kick in.

Hey, watch it here.

Watch together, Bo Kyung. Okay.

Okay, good. One more time.

- One more time! - Kyoung Seo clears it with a header.

Let's go!

(Where Mashima goes, I go.)

Nice, Kyoung Seo.

Kyoung Seo is basically Mashima's shadow.

- Exactly. She's shutting her down. - She's her shadow.

Kyoung Seo, thank you!

Give it to me like this.

Dash out right away.

- FC One the Woman kicks in again. - It's fine.

- Watch the ball. - Go.

Mashima!

Minseo.

That kind of headed clearance...

is something you would expect from a professional soccer defender.

- Nice! Minseo. - Minseo.

- Minseo! - Nice, good.

Impressive!

- I thought that was going in. - I thought it went in.

Get in there.

FC One the Woman continues to attack.

KISUM is in a high position as well.

FC One the Woman prepares for a corner kick.

Hey!

Go!

KISUM!

Okay.

FC One the Woman has players who can quickly create shooting chances...

even from kick-ins.

That could totally lead to a goal right away.

The key is also how they stop KISUM from building up.

They should look for a quick counterattack.

The goal is wide open.

Lisa is preparing to throw it long.

Okay, good. Nice.

SEOGI quickly turns the loose ball.

There was no teammate in that space.

It's ours.

Lay it off, and I'll shoot.

They can't keep giving FC One the Woman kick-ins like this.

Right. They've had quite a few now.

Mashima's aim is so precise.

This is when one goes in.

It's another kick-in for FC One the Woman.

Two, three.

Mashima kicks in!

Kick it!

Hee Jun received it. Hyun Jin!

Clear it.

(A precise shot between the defenders)

(The rising Anaconda's Park Se Yeon, Kim Soo Min, and Kim Na Woo)

Hee Jun received it. Hyun Jin!

She got a touch on the ball,

but it went wide.

(Screaming)

(He can't hear well.)

FC One the Woman 2026! Good job!

That's what they're trying to take advantage of.

Yes. Exactly.

FC Balladream is a little weak in this area.

Okay! Mark your player.

It's okay. We're doing well.

Lisa's goal kick.

Lisa sends it long.

Okay. Good.

FC Balladream's ball.

Girls, form the wall!

Toward the outside of the goal.

(FC Balladream's kick-in)

SEOGI, look here.

Bo Kyung is ready for FC Balladream's kick-in.

Hee Jun, to your left!

Hee Jun, to your left!

She aims far.

- SEOGI steps in. - She got in control.

SEOGI's right-footed shot.

- Yu Mi got the ball out through the legs. - It got out. Hyun Jin.

She passes the ball, but Minseo intercepts it.

Hyun Jin presses again. Hee Jun.

Hee Jun got the ball.

Hee Jun passes the ball to Hyun Jin. Bo Kyung defends.

Hee Jun presses again.

How fierce.

- Minseo. - Minseo is doing well.

But Yu Mi was waiting.

KISUM clears the ball.

- SEOGI cuts it off. - SEOGI.

- SEOGI! - Shooting with the left!

Yu Mi blocks it.

Yu Mi's blocking was good.

Good job.

- Yu Mi, nice! - Nice!

- I can't just sit down. - Can we just stand up?

- Is there no standing section? - I know.

FC Balladream's kick-in again.

Just do the basics.

Roll it really slightly.

Hyun Jin, to the right!

You two should get close. To the right!

To the right!

She's determined to score.

Bo Kyung's accurate shot.

Bo Kyung's shot was amazing.

She hit it a little softer...

and aimed just under the crossbar.

Bo Kyung should just shoot whenever she gets the ball.

I agree.

Both teams have had quite a few shots on target.

- Let's go! - You guys are doing great!

- We have no choice. - FC One the Woman 2026's goal kick.

Go.

KISUM, come out a bit more.

Come more to the left.

Pass the ball now.

Come out now.

Give it to KISUM. KISUM, hit it!

- Back to KISUM. - Hit it!

KISUM rolls the ball.

- There you go. - It got cut off.

The goal is empty!

(The goal is wide open.)

- It got cut off. - Bo Kyung!

Run!

All right! Hit it!

Let's go! Hit it!

KISUM.

- It got cut off. - She cut it off.

- Bo Kyung! - Bo Kyung!

- Goal! - Goal!

FC Balladream scores the opener!

Bo Kyung scored the opening goal again.

- Bo Kyung! - Good job.

(This is thrilling!)

Oh, my!

Well done!

- Bo Kyung! - Good job.

- There you go. - You're the best.

You did a great job.

That was a good shot.

Replay!

I want to see it again.

I want to see it again.

As soon as she cut it off,

she realized the goal was empty.

Bo Kyung is opening the scoring with a precise shot...

rather than a powerful one.

(Two points against FC Streaming Fighter)

(One point against FC World Class)

(One point against FC Giants)

(Two points against FC Top Girl Movement)

(Bo Kyung has scored in five straight games.)

Bo Kyung has scored in five games in a row.

She's signaling the start of a spectacular last dance.

It's just getting started.

(Bo Kyung crushed it!)

(I love it!)

This is what I was talking about.

- Bo Kyung nailed it. - This is it.

- Kim Bo Kyung! - Kim Bo Kyung!

- Kim Bo Kyung! - Kim Bo Kyung!

(While everyone is shouting her name)

(One person is meditating.)

(It's just one goal.)

(FC One the Woman 2026 will win.)

(TRUEDY is freeing herself from suffering.)

KISUM left the goal to get involved in the buildup,

but that rather backfired.

KISUM receives the pass.

Here she goes!

It's going toward the goal post!

(She conceded in the same situation.)

(Why isn't anything going my way?)

FC Balladream is turning every chance into a goal.

I felt like everything I had worked for was being invalidated.

It felt like all four years of training...

had been for nothing.

I'm sorry!

(The nightmare of that day could repeat itself.)

(Is this the beginning of a tragedy?)

Be more confident with your goal kicks.

If you play it too softly, by the time you get back, it's too late.

It's okay to hit it hard.

It has to go beyond the press.

More! We're doing well.

We're doing great.

It's too early to be disappointed.

Hyun Jin, please roll the ball.

Roll it softly.

Use your right foot.

Just like this.

(The game resumes.)

- She's kicking. - The match resumes.

Hey, she's kicking.

(Flinching)

Hyun Jin.

Mashima takes the ball and moves forward.

Mashima.

She's pushing forward.

Mashima!

- Hyun Jin! - Hyun Jin!

Hyun Jin!

- Okay. - It went wide.

Good!

(Fired up)

FC One the Woman 2026! Let's do this!

FC Balladream's goal kick.

Go out.

They immediately press up front.

FC One the Woman 2026's high press is good today.

They've been pressing well.

Bo Kyung sends it high.

The two players are brushing forward.

- Our ball. - It's our ball.

It's FC One the Woman 2026's ball.

Girls! Get your heads on it!

Defense!

- Wait. - Mashima gets into position.

- KISUM is nearby. - In front of the goalkeeper!

(Trying to interfere with the goalkeeper)

She's likely to play it toward the goal.

- Okay. - Kyoung Seo, one step forward.

- In 1, 2. - Kyoung Seo, one step forward.

- Mashima. - That's good.

Minseo headed the ball. Yu Mi.

Yu Mi keeps possession against SEOGI.

- No. - She seems relaxed.

Yu Mi passes the ball. Hyun Jin.

- To the middle. - Hyun Jin, to the middle.

- Bo Kyung cleared the ball. - Hyun Jin's good play.

Hyun Jin's performances...

have improved dramatically.

She's different from the semifinals.

(She improved quickly.)

There you go!

- Hyun Jin. - She improved a lot.

She's moving really well.

No. She should be better!

That's not enough now.

They're keeping Mashima under wraps.

Kyoung Seo is marking her really tightly.

She's right on Mashima.

Kyoung Seo.

(I hate you.)

Kyoung Seo.

Since Kyoung Seo is marking Mashima tightly,

she can't push forward much.

Okay. Good!

Mashima has scored in seven games in a row...

and has been playing incredibly well.

So I think we have to keep her under control.

We'll take turns marking her.

(The next player to mark Mashima)

We'll resume the game with a corner kick.

FC One the Woman 2026 is getting ready.

FC Balladream is doing a great job of containing Mashima...

in the first half.

Just send it down.

- to KISUM. KISUM! - KISUM!

It deflects.

- Mashima! - Come down!

- Kyoung Seo. - The goal is empty again.

Go. Hit it!

The goal is empty.

But Mashima blocks Kyoung Seo this time.

Physical clash.

It goes out.

Kyoung Seo is marking Mashima...

very tightly today.

(The tight marking is starting to wear her down.)

Just give it to her. Pass the ball.

Get the ball.

- KISUM, hurry. - We need to hurry.

- Go. - Mashima, you should go out.

- Mashima, get out there. - Well...

(I want to go out too.)

(Eyes on Mashima only)

Go.

Yu Mi sends it up.

Hyun Jin.

Again!

That's good, Hyun Jin.

- What is that? - What?

Hyun Jin kept possession with her back to the defender,

but the pass was a little too long.

- Out. - It wasn't out.

- It didn't go out. - You should keep going.

Back to Hyun Jin. She got the ball.

- Hyun Jin. - Hyun Jin.

She faced SEOGI.

Then Bo Kyung intercepts.

She's doing well.

Hey!

- Bo Kyung is good. - To SEOGI.

Kyoung Seo gets the ball, but Mashima cuts the ball out.

SEOGI takes it back.

It's FC Balladream's ball.

It's okay!

The final is getting really exciting.

So far, it's been much more exciting than the World Cup final.

Both teams are playing at a very high tempo.

Bo Kyung is getting ready for the kick-in.

Bo Kyung! Minseo, spread out more.

Go straight for the goal. It's all right.

Go deeper in!

(Still marking Mashima tightly)

Bo Kyung sends the ball toward the far side.

Minseo, go!

She takes a very soft touch on the ball.

Minseo tried to get to it with her right foot,

but Yu Mi cuts it out.

- Yu Mi. - Yu Mi.

Yu Mi.

- Hey, Yu Mi, good. - Good.

Yu Mi is full of confidence.

(An unbelievable dribble)

Yu Mi. That was weak.

It's Hee Jun.

Hee Jun.

(Hee Jun's touch sends it out.)

It's FC Balladream's ball.

- It's ours! - Our ball!

- It's FC Balladream's ball! - It's FC One the Woman 2026's!

- It's FC Balladream's ball! - Okay, fine. It's FC Balladream's.

The chairman's ears might bleed.

Just be quiet. It's up to the referee.

I'm sorry. I'm just so nervous.

Chairman Ha.

Chairman Ha must feel dizzy now.

I'm sure he's having some hearing issues.

(Who am I? Where am I?)

FC Balladream's kick-in.

Send it up!

- I'll play it up! - Minseo is preparing for a kick-in.

Good.

Get it.

- But it was so long that it's out. - Nice.

Great.

Hee Jun! Switch your positions.

Hyun Jin, come here.

Mashima!

Hee Jun dropped back a little,

and Mashima is positioned up high.

- I'll go and mark her. - Okay.

(If you go there, I'll go too.)

Hee Jun, move up!

Hee Jun, move forward!

Bo Kyung, get ready! Okay!

Bo Kyung, you can go up. Good.

Yu Mi.

- Yu Mi. - She chips the ball long.

It's deflected.

- Mashima is fast. To the other side. - Mashima!

Lisa, the goalie, punched it away.

It's FC One the Woman 2026's kick-in.

The moment they lost track of Mashima, she got a shot off near the box.

(She tried shooting even though the angle was too narrow.)

Did you see Mashima's play?

That's the class of Mashima!

Mashima, let's go!

Mashima, go for it!

So annoying.

- Was that right? - No.

(Warned for incorrect Japanese)

A good kick-in chance for FC One the Woman 2026.

Pass it to KISUM!

Go!

- KISUM! - KISUM!

But it was too wide.

I tried to take a good shot myself.

- Good job. - Nice try.

Kyoung Seo! I'll take Kyoung Seo off.

YEWON, you're on.

- Mashima is positioned back. Okay? - Okay.

YEWON is on the pitch now.

The Mashima shadow is here now.

She's played a critical role...

in her team shutting down FC One the Woman 2026.

(YEWON, the ace stopper,)

(showed Mashima just how harsh Shooting Stars is.)

It's the worst memory on this show.

What's with you?

YEWON has no intention of joining the attack.

She's only sticking to Mashima.

- YEWON. - Sorry, Mashima.

This is the last time.

Na Gyeong, go over there.

Just drag Mashima to the abyss with you.

Take her down with you!

Lisa.

Lisa's goal kick.

Lisa throws it.

Yu Mi, but the ball goes out.

Nice. Make a wall!

Defense.

Good. YEWON, let's go in.

FC Balladream is preparing for a kick-in.

Should we go for 2-to-1?

Two-to-one, not the one we did last time?

Right.

- Two-to-one? - Yes. Step back a little.

- She's right-footed. - Bo Kyung.

SEOGI wins the ball back.

The ball is loose. SEOGI.

(Zombie YEWON makes her run.)

YEWON!

The ball is loose, and YEWON!

After a perfect breakaway,

YEWON was completely free, and SEOGI did well to take the ball away.

It was a perfect pass from SEOGI,

but YEWON suddenly went down as if she'd been shot.

YEWON!

(YEWON's signature zombie soccer)

Goodness!

That's not so satisfying.

What a shame.

- Do you pick one in each situation? - Yes.

This is perfect for a situation like that.

(SEOGI-ticons)

(That was quite unsatisfying.)

Good!

Hee Jun, go up.

Yu Mi is on the move.

FC One the Woman 2026 is building up using KISUM.

Good. That's it!

- Hyun Jin. - It's a chance for a counterattack.

Minseo spreads out.

(For the additional goal!)

- Minseo is positioning up. - SEOGI.

SEOGI is dashing forward.

- But Yu Mi marks her tightly. - SEOGI.

What a shame.

SEOGI looks to be in good form today.

Gosh. SEOGI is so fast.

Why are you so fast today?

She's so fast.

The momentum is with us now!

You're doing well!

(FC One the Woman 2026's goal kick)

It's FC One the Woman 2026's goal kick.

Push up as you defend.

- Go! Hee Jun, go! - Hee Jun.

- Hee Jun. - Yes.

That was her feint.

Hee Jun and Hyun Jin are improving with every game.

Yu Mi.

Mashima.

Mashima.

Mashima plays the ball through.

Hee Jun, once again.

Yu Mi.

FC One the Woman 2026 is doing a great job disrupting their defense.

- She plays the ball straight to Mashima. - Mashima.

- Will Mashima turn? - Will she be able to turn?

YEWON is marking her tightly.

Mashima.

- Yu Mi. - Fire it!

- Hee Jun. - Fire it!

The coach is telling her to fire it. But it's not easy to do so here.

FC One the Woman 2026 still has possession.

She's a bit late.

Nice!

- She's a bit late. - SEOGI snatched the ball.

- SEOGI! - SEOGI!

(Could this be the equalizer that brings FC Balladream closer to the trophy?)

SEOGI snatched the ball.

- SEOGI! - SEOGI!

KISUM's save!

Nice play, SEOGI!

That was crazy.

She grabbed me from the back.

She must be disappointed.

SEOGI, what did you eat?

You're so good!

I'll eat what she eats from now on.

(Share it with us.)

(The danger continues.)

Get up!

Don't let it bother you!

- It's okay. - It's okay.

It's okay.

If they'd conceded another goal just then,

the game could've gotten much tougher for FC One the Woman 2026.

FC One the Woman 2026 has escaped a huge crisis.

- Nice job. - Good.

FC Balladream is really fierce today.

I think the score difference could be quite big today.

It's all right!

- It's okay! - It's okay!

(Let's do this again, FC One the Woman 2026!)

(Hyun Jin out, Na Gyeong in)

Coach Kim took Hyun Jin out and brought Na Gyeong on.

KISUM puts the ball down and moves forward.

To the right side. Okay.

Come.

Hee Jun.

She drives in.

- The opposite side. - Hee Jun.

Bo Kyung cuts it and clears the ball out.

Defense. It's all good!

The key is whether Mashima can beat this man-to-man defense.

Mashima is having a really hard time right now.

She's facing tight man-to-man marking whenever she attacks.

Look at YEWON.

I think FC One the Woman 2026 will only get goal chances from kick-ins today.

Exactly.

They have to look for chances from kick-ins.

Hold on.

It's okay. We've got this.

It's only 1 to 0 now.

Don't follow the ball too hastily.

They might choose to dribble.

- Lisa, get ready! - Okay!

- Lisa! - Go deeper in!

- Lisa! - Mashima sends in a cross.

- Gosh. - Nice play!

FC Balladream still leads 1-0.

(The one-goal gap remains.)

YEWON comes off, and Kyoung Seo comes back on for FC Balladream.

Coach, should I mark Mashima?

(Nodding)

It's okay. Stay here. Good.

Whenever YEWON comes off, Kyoung Seo comes on,

and whenever Kyoung Seo comes off, YEWON comes back on.

With the two of them sticking to her like leeches,

it must be exhausting.

She's making a move.

(FC Balladream's goal kick)

Lisa makes a long throw.

SEOGI.

Three players surround her.

- Hee Jun! - Hee Jun.

Back pass toward KISUM.

The goalkeeper sends the ball long.

Go!

- Keep your eye on the ball. - Move up.

Na Gyeong is there.

- Mashima. - Mashima got the ball!

She passes it, but Kyoung Seo clears it out.

Mashima is the most dangerous player when she gets around the opponent's box.

I'm sorry.

Mashima!

Mashima!

Kyoung Seo, nice play!

It's FC One the Woman 2026's kick-in.

KISUM has pushed way up.

- Bo Kyung, get ready. Take a step ahead. - Go.

Move together.

- Mashima. - Follow it. Okay.

- It's KISUM. - KISUM.

But Minseo's defense is too sturdy to break through.

Nice!

Our team is doing amazing.

FC One the Woman 2026's kick-in.

In 1, 2.

She's coming forward.

(A fierce battle of nerves)

Stay near the line.

Check the line.

- The ball is the reference point. - No, it's supposed to be here.

Then, take a step backward.

They're so desperate.

Both are.

(Flinching again)

Kyoung Seo is trying hard to close the angle.

Gosh.

- Give her a yellow card. - It wasn't intentional. Sorry.

- You'll get a yellow card. Be careful. - Good job.

Number Seven, do it one more time, and it's a yellow card.

The referee finally shows a yellow card.

Kyoung Seo gets booked.

She's been given several verbal warnings already.

- She's too fired up. - Right.

Mashima threads the ball to Yu Mi.

Through SEOGI, but...

Mashima again.

FC Balladream has to weather this spell.

They're doing a great job of containing Mashima in the first half.

Another FC One the Woman 2026's kick-in.

I can do it. Hold on.

Lisa, it'll be a long kick.

FC Balladream, you've got this!

FC Balladream, let's go!

- Mashima sends it up. - Mashima.

- Nice. - FC One the Woman 2026 isn't...

usually a team that relies this much on dead balls,

but their buildup hasn't been working well today,

so they're looking for chances like this.

(Kyoung Seo out, YEWON in)

It's FC Balladream's ball.

Lisa, the keeper, sends a long throw.

- Hee Jun. - Go, okay!

Let it go out.

FC Balladream is reading the flow of the ball very well.

FC Balladream's kick-in. SEOGI.

Bo Kyung. SEOGI.

- SEOGI. - SEOGI redirects the ball.

Mashima.

- It could be 3-to-2. Shoot! - Shoot!

- Shoot! - Shoot!

And Hee Jun!

What was that header?

- What? It didn't go in? - Come on!

Mashima is almighty!

That was a great shot.

Mashima's powerful shot...

ended up hitting the crossbar.

(It almost breaks through, but not quite.)

They need to keep firing shots toward the goal like this.

That was so close!

Mashima, nice play!

- Mashima! - Mashima!

FC One the Woman 2026 must be getting frustrated.

They need to score a goal.

- We need a goal. - We can definitely come back.

It's definitely possible. There's still time.

FC Balladream's kick-in.

Bo Kyung sends it long.

But it goes out of play.

Great!

FC One the Woman 2026 is in possession.

Hurry up! Hee Jun, get closer to her.

FC Balladream is handling FC One the Woman 2026's buildup...

from the back very well.

Take a long kick!

KISUM launches it long.

Na Gyeong.

Hee Jun.

- I got it. - Hey!

She tries to shoot toward the middle, but Lisa, the goalkeeper, handles it well.

Nice!

Lisa!

(FC Balladream's defense is great.)

It's FC Balladream's ball.

- Go up! - Lisa.

A good header.

- Minseo. - She cut it. It could've been dangerous.

(Beating the press between two players)

Mashima is charging forward!

Mashima's shot!

The ball fell to her left foot,

so she got a shot off, but Lisa stopped it.

Coach Lee has come up with a way to counter the opponent's strong attack,

and he's keeping them from scoring.

It's okay.

(FC Balladream's tight defensive organization...)

(was key to their semifinal win.)

FC Balladream looks like they're in even better shape than last week.

FC Balladream is in possession. Lisa.

One of you should join her there!

SEOGI.

- That was a good pass from SEOGI. - It's SEOGI.

What incredible control she has!

Hey!

Na Gyeong wins the ball after colliding with a player,

but SEOGI appears again.

Hee Jun.

But YEWON.

Move forward!

Bo Kyung.

If she gets some space, she'll shoot right away.

YEWON. Hee Jun.

No.

Yu Mi moves up.

- Good pressure. - Yu Mi!

But she gets through that pressure!

(The Big Yu Mi mode on)

- To Mashima. - Mashima.

- Mashima. - Mashima.

Look at SEOGI's play.

But SEOGI came flying in from behind with a great tackle.

Her defense was really good.

If you hesitate, you'll lose the ball right away.

FC Balladream was very quick to transition to defense...

after losing the ball following an attack.

This is the real final.

It's FC One the Woman 2026's kick-in.

- Mashima. - Mashima puts in a cross!

Lisa!

She caught the ball as smoothly as if it had landed on a fork.

Lisa has to get her husband to come watch every game.

Lisa, you're amazing!

SEOGI, do you want to take a short break and then go back in?

He lets SEOGI rest for a bit, and Ben comes on.

- It's FC Balladream's ball. - Stand in front of her.

- Close in! - Lisa throws the ball long.

Hey!

- Ben's movement is good. - Let it go out!

But the ball goes straight out.

Today is Ri A's first school observation day.

She's clearly very determined to win the trophy.

My husband is going to attend our daughter's class instead of me.

I told my daughter I had to go to work tomorrow,

and she told me not to go. Then she asked where I was going,

and when I said I was going to play soccer,

she asked, "Are you going to Shooting Stars?"

I was really surprised...

because it was the first time I'd ever heard her say those words.

I can't make it to her class today, but I want to give my daughter...

a good result from today's game.

Follow the ball. Okay.

FC One the Woman 2026's kick-in.

Na Gyeong sends it up.

Go and make the run.

Bo Kyung cuts it.

Bo Kyung is watching the situation.

Ben is running.

The other side!

- Bo Kyung. - Bo Kyung.

YEWON turns around!

Bo Kyung. The ball is out.

Okay, nice.

(Ri A's mother is so eager.)

FC Balladream prepares for a corner kick.

YEWON, get ready near the goal.

YEWON and Ben keep getting in her way in front of the goal.

(A fierce battle for position)

The physical battle is intense too.

The ball is up.

Throw it!

- Come down. - Mashima!

KISUM makes a long throw, and Mashima runs after it.

- Mashima! - Mashima!

- Mashima! - A chance!

- Mashima! - Mashima!

(A double collision)

The teammates got tangled up and fell.

- Are you okay? - I'm okay.

(Shocked from disappointment)

My heart almost sank.

That was really dangerous.

How could it not go in?

FC Balladream is suddenly losing ground.

- The momentum has changed. - Definitely.

Great job.

FC One the Woman 2026 still has plenty of time.

It's a corner kick.

Yu Mi of FC One the Woman 2026 prepares for it.

Ben, the left side.

- Hey, check the middle. It's risky. - I got it.

Hee Jun, can you block this side?

Hey.

(Blocking initiated.)

- Shoot! - Shoot!

It went wide.

Mashima quickly broke forward from the back,

and there was a low pass played toward her.

Thanks.

Mashima's movement was good.

- Right. - That was good.

I noticed that...

when YEWON marked Mashima,

a player from her team came over to mark YEWON.

It's FC Balladream's ball.

Lisa.

She made a long throw.

(Ri A's mother's ball-control)

Nice ball-control!

- Mashima passes it nicely. - Na Gyeong.

Back to Mashima!

- She was too late. - Goal kick.

Before the ball went directly to her, three players rushed toward her.

Ben and YEWON formed a strong defensive partnership.

Nice play, Mashima.

Okay, good. Nice.

- Nice! - Nice!

Nice!

I've never seen FC Balladream play soccer with this much fire.

- Really? - Yes.

The FC Balladream players seem to have a different mindset today.

(The first half ends.)

The first half comes to an end like this.

Nice!

We held out great.

They completely shut down Mashima,

and Bo Kyung's opening goal gives them a 1 to 0 lead at halftime.

We're doing great.

You played extremely well in the first half.

- But soccer is not just one half. Right? - Yes.

After scoring, we have become a little stagnant.

We have become too passive.

What I mean is,

there are times when we can push forward in attack,

- We're not. - but we're not doing it.

Right now, we are too focused on simply keeping possession.

But we can't hold on until the end like this.

- Right. - We absolutely can't.

This match will not end 1 to 0.

Okay.

- We need to change our mindset. - Okay.

(Attack more aggressively!)

Mashima, you're not getting the ball because of the man-marking, right?

If the ball is not reaching you, it means the opposition is defending well.

Right? They are defending well.

Mashima, you have to overcome that.

You have to fight for the ball physically within the rules.

I want to win so bad.

I want to beat FC Balladream so bad.

I want to score.

Coach Keun Ho's decision...

to have Kyoung Seo and YEWON man-mark Mashima...

has been a masterstroke.

Today,

we're going to see a real war.

Mashima!

(Beyond the victory or loss)

Stay strong!

What do you want me to do?

(The final 13 minutes)

FC Balladream, let's go!

Mashima just looked at Kyoung Seo...

with a rather deep smile.

She needs to regain her composure.

- There. - Go up.

In a 1-on-1 situation,

space can eventually open up around them.

- Defend and go. - KISUM.

- Okay, that's it. Okay. - She passes.

But it goes straight out.

- Kyoung Seo, hold her. - Hold onto Mashima.

Mashima and Kyoung Seo.

Kyoung Seo has no intention of attacking.

She's definitely focused on defending.

FC Balladream kicks in.

- Nice. - She passes.

Yu Mi. Kyoung Seo.

- This way. - Play!

- It's out. - It's out.

- It's our ball. - It's okay. Kyoung Seo, good.

Just one!

FC One the Woman, let's go!

So Hee, get in there.

FC One the Woman has earned plenty of set-piece opportunities,

but they have yet to capitalize on any of them.

Yes.

All right.

Hee Jun goes for the header!

That was close. Hee Jun.

(The Special Forces header locks onto its target.)

Header.

That was so on point.

Hee Jun!

Hee Jun!

The timing of the jump was excellent.

She made solid contact with her forehead,

so she just needs to direct it better.

She could get another chance.

Good job.

Great!

- Hee Jun, good! - Great job.

A 1 to 0 soccer match...

- is always incredibly tense. - Right.

- It can change at any moment. - Exactly. At any moment.

SEOGI comes on...

in place of Ben.

To the center.

- Lisa throws the ball. - Far!

So Hee.

SEOGI intercepts.

- But So Hee stops her. - At your back.

- Yu Mi. - Mashima. You can't leave Mashima alone.

- Watch Mashima. - Mashima.

Bring it.

Mashima, okay, good. That's it.

Hee Jun needs to make the run in behind.

Wait.

Mashima is running up and down the field to shake off her marker.

You're Big Yu Mi!

The ball goes to Hee Jun once more. FC Balladream presses.

There's no time to hesitate.

It goes out after contact with Minseo.

- Let's score this. - Go now!

Mashima and Yu Mi prepare for the kick-in.

(She's got a bump on her forehead.)

They keep pushing So Hee out.

Let's do this!

Mashima. She passes this time.

KISUM!

No!

It hits the post!

Hit it!

Go!

One more time!

(Keeps shooting until the end)

That's too close.

(Holding her head in despair)

So Hee! You have to do it! What are you doing!

(I'm sorry.)

I'm sorry.

FC One the Woman creates a shot...

with a perfectly executed pattern play,

but they still can't find the equalizer.

That was their closest chance...

to an equalizer today.

Hey!

How could this happen?

- It hit the goalpost again. - How many goalposts are there?

Does this make sense?

FC Balladream is incredibly lucky today.

Maybe it's because Lisa's husband is here.

- He's like a totem for Lisa. - Right.

The ball just doesn't go in.

Focus until the end.

Focus until the end. Okay.

Thank you.

There's still plenty of time for FC One the Woman.

That's right.

Hee Jun cuts it off.

You have to go!

- Minseo, go! - Minseo, go.

- Mashima. - Mashima does a back spin.

She reads it well. Mashima.

She shoots! It deflects off.

Go.

No!

What is it? Is it a cramp?

(But Kyoung Seo is on the ground?)

- What's wrong? Kyoung Seo? - What is it?

What's wrong?

She's got a cramp.

- Who is it? - Did she strain her ankle?

- It's Kyoung Seo. - Oh, no.

- Kyoung Seo. - She's got a cramp.

(She's worried.)

- What's wrong? - My knee. Hold on.

It hurts.

It hurts so bad.

It's her knee.

It looks like Kyoung Seo may be seriously hurt.

She seems to be in a lot of pain.

Kyoung Seo has done an excellent job...

of shutting Mashima down so far.

I'll stabilize it first, so stay still for a moment.

I'm sorry.

No. Why would you say that?

Why would you be sorry?

You don't have to run.

It's more important that you don't get hurt.

Breathe.

- Could you try and straighten your leg? - Breathe.

- Yes. - It's okay. Come here.

I feel like I should stay with her.

Straighten your leg.

It's okay.

It's okay, Kyoung Seo.

We got this. It's okay.

Oh, no.

One, two, three.

Why are you crying?

(Kyoung Seo leaves the field for treatment.)

An injury in the final...

is the last thing any player would want.

Hopefully, the diagnosis shows that Kyoung Seo's injury is not serious.

Yes.

- When that happens, - That's bad.

it really shakes you up.

Oh, dear.

(The heavy silence fills up the field.)

All right.

- We can do this. - You have to do it.

Hey, look.

- Don't lose your focus. - Okay.

It's nothing but focus.

Let's grit our teeth.

If we lose our composure and fall apart here,

Kyoung Seo will feel even worse.

- So we have to win this. - Let's win for her.

- Let's win for her. - Think about Kyoung Seo.

But FC Balladream gets even stronger in moments like this.

- Be careful. - Right.

Just because Kyoung Seo is out...

doesn't mean anyone on that team is weak.

We just have to...

- fight until the very end. - Yes.

- FC Balladream, let's go! - FC Balladream, let's go!

- Let's go! - Let's go!

YEWON, watch Mashima.

- Just keep doing what we've done. - YEWON.

- KISUM. - Stay here.

The match resumes with a corner kick.

It's FC One the Woman.

Watch KISUM too.

- Mashima. - Mashima!

- YEWON. - YEWON intercepts.

The pass didn't connect. Yu Mi.

Mashima!

Minseo saves it nicely.

- It goes out after hitting the post. - Nice.

Just like in the first half,

Minseo is in front of Lisa again in the second half.

(Minseo stays focused in a moment of crisis.)

Mashima has a little more freedom now...

with Kyoung Seo off the field.

Let's grit our teeth.

FC One the Woman prepares for another corner kick.

Mashima.

Mashima passes to Yu Mi.

Yu Mi passes back.

- So Hee. - So Hee!

Okay.

Bo Kyung clears it out first.

It's too close.

It's not.

FC One the Woman kicks in.

- Go right away. - Don't spread out.

- Mashima! - Mashima shoots!

Lisa reads where the ball will drop and clears it away.

Lisa is showing some incredible focus today.

- Are you okay? - Nice.

FC One the Woman keeps creating similar chances right now.

FC One the Woman has had more possession...

and has also created more shots.

FC One the Woman keeps creating chances that are coming very close to a goal.

It's definitely going in.

Just keep going!

Focus. Good!

You can get closer.

It's coming in.

It's KISUM.

KISUM passes back. Mashima.

YEWON.

- Mashima. - Okay, good!

You have to go.

Focus until the end.

Mashima!

Mashima pushes the ball.

SEOGI intercepts.

Let's go! Bo Kyung, go!

Let's go!

(Launching a counterattack with sheer determination)

- Bo Kyung makes a turn! - SEOGI.

There's YEWON too. It goes to Bo Kyung.

- Bo Kyung! - Bo Kyung!

Another shot!

SEOGI. Again!

Mashima clears the ball.

That was an excellent counterattack by FC Balladream.

Bo Kyung gets a shot away on the counterattack,

and SEOGI shoots from the second ball.

But it didn't go in.

FC Balladream, good!

Good!

Did you see SEOGI's face? My goodness.

They're scary.

In a bit later.

I think I was a little out of my mind back then.

I was determined to win no matter what.

Hold it if she's reading it.

So Hee comes off, and Na Gyeong comes on.

It's FC Balladream's kick-in.

Bo Kyung sends it up.

KISUM handles it without much difficulty.

(Quick counterattack)

Hurry.

- KISUM goes for it. - Here she comes!

(SEOGI intercepts.)

The goal is wide open.

(Another empty net)

Take the shot.

But Yu Mi keeps it out.

Minseo cuts it off in the middle.

Minseo moves forward.

Minseo steps forward.

But it deflects off Mashima and goes out.

Nice job.

Stay focused.

One coming.

There's a fierce physical battle inside the box.

It's FC Balladream's corner kick.

- Go. - Bo Kyung.

- That's right. - Bo Kyung breaks free and moves up.

- Na Gyeong is defending. - Minseo is over there.

- Na Gyeong, come out! - Minseo. SEOGI.

SEOGI overlaps.

YEWON.

YEWON accidentally sends the ball high into the air.

(Blasting it toward the sky)

- And YEWON. - Focus!

She barely manages to connect it to Minseo.

SEOGI.

- Bo Kyung is behind her. She fires it! - She takes a shot!

It hits the post and comes back out.

(Clatters off the post)

What a great shot by Bo Kyung.

(Nerve-racking)

(FC Balladream's barrage with their eyes locked on the prize)

Mashima clears it away.

Leave it.

It's FC Balladream's ball.

Nice job.

Nice job, Bo Kyung.

Great job.

If they win today, MOU has to be...

- Oh, no. - Bo Kyung?

- MVP has to be Bo Kyung. - Yes.

Send it up.

- Move up. - Play it long down the wing.

It's FC Balladream's kick-in.

She sends it long in one go.

The ball that Hee Jun dealt with...

- became loose. - SEOGI.

Yu Mi. SEOGI.

- SEOGI cuts it off. - SEOGI!

- Great defense by Yu Mi. - Amazing.

It's FC One the Woman's ball this time.

- Kyoung Seo is coming. - Kyoung Seo, are you okay?

- My goodness. - Kyoung Seo.

Is it your knee?

- Did you hurt your knee? - Yes, my knee.

Are you okay, Kyoung Seo?

(Kyoung Seo returns to the bench with support.)

Where?

- Where do you want? - You have to go back there.

She must want to keep cheering until the very end,

because she's the captain.

- Kyoung Seo is coming back now. - Yes.

She really wants to be with the players.

The girls are doing really well. Don't worry.

- She might feel really upset if we lose. - We won't lose.

(She finally manages a faint smile.)

It's FC One the Woman's kick-in.

Mashima's high-scoring team, fresh off her consecutive hat-tricks.

FC Balladream is completely shutting down FC One the Woman.

They came in with the strategy that they couldn't win without stopping Mashima.

And so far, it's working exactly as planned.

The ball comes over to Yu Mi again.

Hee Jun. To Mashima.

It's been a while since Mashima even touched the ball.

Nice defense!

Let's cheer for them.

Here we go.

(Resounding cheers)

Again!

(Slightly amazed)

Make some noise!

(Getting into the spirit)

- Look at TRUEDY. - Over there.

- Where's TRUEDY? - There.

No wonder my ears felt so comfortable.

They want an even bigger roar from the crowd.

Yu Mi cuts it off.

She gets past two players and drives forward.

That's right, Yu Mi.

(She gets past one, then two.)

Look at how relaxed she is.

Yu Mi. Great vision.

Hyun Jin.

When is she going to live up to the name of Nonhyeon-dong Henry?

She just can't finish.

Hyun Jin has done everything well, but she just can't score.

The finishing was a bit...

But if they get one goal, you never know.

FC One the Woman will need to score one to get their momentum going.

FC Balladream has held on this whole time.

Can they start taking control of the momentum?

If they score another goal here, the trophy will be within sight.

YEWON, hang in there.

YEWON, hang in there.

Trust yourself and do it with confidence.

(FC Balladream's goal kick)

She sends it into the wing.

The ball is still alive.

- Yu Mi. - Boot it. Go.

That looks dangerous.

(Is this FC Balladream's goal to seal the championship?)

That looks dangerous.

- It's in. - Goal!

SEOGI scores the second goal. FC Balladream!

You did it!

Well done.

("Trophy" by SEOGI)

(The fruit of coming together as one)

(On every road you've traveled, running with all your strength,)

(as if you might break...)

- I'm sorry. - It's okay.

(Unforgettable moments of joy)

It's not over.

SEOGI.

You're the best.

(All of us who cried and laughed together)

Why? It's not over yet.

Why? What happened?

Great, SEOGI. Let's give it everything until the end.

- She's crying because she's happy. - Well done, SEOGI.

It's not over yet. Just a little more.

(Hoping to ease injured Kyoung Seo's guilt,)

(they want to gift her the championship trophy.)

(FC Balladream's Spirit Sister Tak is moved to tears too.)

She shouldn't have caught it, because it was SEOGI.

She should've cleared it.

SEOGI's pressure on the goalkeeper was absolutely perfect.

FC Balladream, who had held on all this time,

finally scores under SEOGI's relentless pressure.

It was my fault.

That's okay.

(Will they fall even farther away from another championship?)

Is it 2 to 0?

At 2 to 0, it's going to be difficult.

But with Mashima, you never know.

Mashima's back looks threatening.

- She looks dangerous. - She's mad.

Mashima.

(A four-goal poker in the second G League last-place match)

(A hat-trick in the second GIFA Cup preliminary round)

(A four-goal poker in the second GIFA All-Star match)

(A hat-trick in the second GIFA Cup semifinals)

(Mashima has averaged 3.5 goals over her last four games.)

Six minutes?

That's plenty of time.

Now you have to do everything you want to do.

Let's do this.

(Nothing left to lose.)

The game resumes with the kickoff.

FC One the Woman 2026 pushes forward. They're in a hurry now.

They've gotten desperate.

But it simply goes out.

Come on.

Let's go, FC One the Woman 2026.

- SEOGI. - Send it over, then.

Okay.

Bo Kyung sends it up.

Yu Mi heads it away.

(All-out defense)

Hee Jun comes on, and Hyun Jin comes off.

FC Balladream has another kick-in.

- SEOGI. - Hee Jun. Give it to me.

That's a dangerous pass.

That's what YEWON is good at.

- The things we don't expect. - Squeezing it through.

Squeezing it through.

They are somehow maintaining their focus on the ball right to the very end.

- Nice job. - Great job, YEWON.

Well done.

(FC One the Woman's goal kick)

Hee Jun.

Left side.

Too late.

Bo Kyung.

YEWON, right away.

They're thoroughly reading FC One the Woman's passing lanes,

and cutting them off.

Yu MI. To SEOGI, again.

She passes it to YEWON.

YEWON.

That was a perfect pass from SEOGI.

(Pass between the legs)

She should've taken the shot right then, but she couldn't get the shot off.

(A relentless onslaught for the sealing goal)

- YEWON, go back! - Faster!

Hey!

(Mashima is free from her marker.)

Yu Mi.

(Get Mashima!)

Come slowly.

Na Gyeong!

- She released the ball. - Na Gyeong.

- Hey! - Mashima!

Get out, Bo Kyung!

Watch Mashima!

Go!

- Mashima! - Mashima!

- Goal! - Goal!

(Mashima's comeback goal)

(FC One the Woman 2026 supporters)

(The iron defense finally cracks.)

(We've still got hope, Father Ha!)

They scored!

They pull one back!

FC One the Woman 2026 makes it 2 to 1.

(Na Gyeong's assist set up their crucial comeback goal.)

Hurry. Go!

Hurry up!

We've still got a long way to go.

Na Gyeong played a key role here.

- That's right. - She passed it well to an open space.

Mashima, who'd been under constant pressure,

finally beats her defenders and scores.

I knew Mashima wasn't done yet.

Classic Mashima.

See? While YEWON was over there,

- Right. - she just rushed in...

and scored right away.

(Caught out by a momentary lapse)

You did great!

It's okay.

- You were just tired, YEWON. - Sorry.

They're exhausted.

Right?

They're completely drained.

Whoever's marking Mashima, do not lose her!

- We just... - We keep losing her!

- lost her up front. - Yes, don't lose her.

YEWON, I know you're tired, but hang in there a little longer.

(I'll keep going. Watch me.)

Okay, one more goal!

At last, FC One the Woman 2026 pulls a goal back.

Now they'll have to make the most of the time they have left.

Yes. Anything could happen now.

There are still over three minutes left in the second half.

As expected in a final, the match is really heating up...

after Mashima's comeback goal.

We've got this!

I don't think anyone wants to win more than I do.

It's because I have a promise to keep.

FC One the Woman will win,

because I'm here.

(A promise for her team)

We've beaten every team,

but against FC Balladream,

we've never won a single match.

(A revenge for the team)

Honestly, they're the scariest team.

We kept losing to them.

We're stuck with the fact that we've never beaten them.

(The humiliating moments they want to erase)

There's nothing I can do.

So Hee, you need to be more aggressive.

You too, Hyun Jin.

One more!

Let's go, FC One the Woman 2026!

We've got this, FC One the Woman 2026!

Keep going!

FC One the Woman 2026, keep going!

Na Gyeong, eyes on Bo Kyung.

Players on both teams are exhausted at this point.

- Yes. - They're running on empty.

FC One the Woman 2026 comes alive here.

Bo Kyung.

SEOGI.

Will SEOGI manage to turn?

- Ours! - Hee Jun clears the ball.

Ours!

This is more nerve-wracking than any other final.

- I know, right? - Yes, anything could happen.

Can they pull off a miracle in four minutes?

FC Balladream's kick-in.

Guys, wall!

Get tight!

Right!

Right! Get tight!

- She plays the bait. - Now!

She gives the ball to SEOGI.

Did she get away? SEOGI passes it to the middle!

KISUM's fantastic super save!

(KISUM's super save)

Go!

- They go for a counterattack. - Let's go!

She sent it long in one go.

- But Minseo intercepts it. - Nice.

- FC One the Woman 2026's ball. - Ours.

- Look at that! - YEWON nailed that shot.

Goalkeepers can't react to that.

They can't stop it.

She instantly split her legs.

Yes. It came off her left foot.

(KISUM saves it with her toes.)

Come on!

It was right there!

- She's shooting from there? - That was so close!

That was the perfect moment!

This is driving me crazy.

KISUM is feeling pain in her hip.

But thanks to her selfless play,

- her team is saved from the brink. - Yes.

KISUM saves her team.

FC One the Woman 2026's kick-in.

- Get tight! - SEOGI, watch the kick!

Just one goal, please.

Okay.

Mashima sent it in.

The crossbar!

Lisa, the middle!

She's slowly getting her aim right.

Mashima, nice! Good job!

Are you guys ready?

(Cheerleader TRUEDY is back.)

In 3, 2, 1, go!

- One the Woman! - One the Woman!

- TRUEDY has moved over there again. - Right.

With this momentum,

TRUEDY sure knows the fans' support gives the team...

- the fuel they need. - Indeed.

Let's go, FC One the Woman 2026!

She sent it long.

Yu Mi.

But she couldn't save it.

You should've left it!

It's hard to do that.

(The father is just as desperate as his daughter.)

Her dad is angry.

Right there, one step left! Okay!

These guys are drained too!

FC Balladream's kick-in.

- Farther. - What will SEOGI do?

The ball goes to Bo Kyung but plays it back.

SEOGI plays it through the middle.

- Bo Kyung! - Bo Kyung!

Yu Mi!

Yu Mi got off to a quick start.

Na Gyeong.

- Nice technique from SEOGI. - There goes SEOGI.

- She lays it off. YEWON! - Hit it!

The ball just took...

- a sudden deflection. - Yes.

And it almost led to an own goal.

The ball hit Na Gyeong as she rushed toward the goalpost,

resulting in a corner kick.

- I thought it went in! - YEWON, nice!

- Good work, YEWON! - Let's go, FC Balladream!

- Let's go, FC One the Woman 2026! - FC Balladream has come up with...

unconventional set piece routines. It's Minseo this time.

- Go! - She plays it back to SEOGI.

- SEOGI shoots! Minseo! - Go for it!

- But Yu Mi was on her way. - Nice!

Mashima clears the ball, and Lisa collects it.

My heart!

Why are they all so good?

This really is a final.

(FC Balladream's goal kick)

- Lisa sent it long. - Yours!

SEOGI goes after the ball.

Help her!

SEOGI tries to save it, but it goes out of play.

Please! I don't think we have much time left.

FC One the Woman 2026's kick-in.

- They use KISUM. - You've got this, KISUM!

FC One the Woman 2026's buildup using KISUM.

Pass it to the middle!

(Here!)

She plays it through.

She flicked it on.

- Right now... - Wait!

(Bo Kyung clears it first.)

- Why? - It looks like YEWON...

got injured.

- Hold on. - Are you okay?

I think she got hurt...

as Kyoung Seo did.

She twisted her knee.

Oh, no!

They must have pushed themselves too hard since it's the final.

With Kyoung Seo already unable to play due to injury,

Wait!

YEWON goes down too.

Why?

What is it? Is it YEWON's knee?

(Another unexpected injury)

- Go take a break. Ben, get in. - Wait!

The players are putting their bodies on the line...

and giving it their all on the field.

What happened?

Why?

- There. - Closer.

Can't I just go for it?

It's just the five of them for the rest of the game.

And Ben is in.

We'll start with a kick-in. FC One the Woman 2026's ball.

Okay! We just need to focus a little longer.

- Concentrate! - We're almost done!

(FC Balladream must hold on with just five.)

- FC One the Woman 2026, let's go! - Let's do this!

Come on!

Just one goal.

(FC One the Woman 2026 needs one more goal.)

FC One the Woman 2026's kick-in.

Go right away!

- Mashima sent it in! - It's in!

- The ball is cleared away. - Yes.

- Na Gyeong cleared it. - Right.

(Tried a header but cut it out)

It's in!

- Please! - Nice!

- Sorry. - Nice!

I think I still can play. Wait.

YEWON, Ben can do it too.

I'm sure she can.

Ben is now marking Mashima.

- Is it you now, Ben? - Yes, it's me.

Kyoung Seo, YEWON, and Ben?

You can't grab me!

(FC Balladream's goal kick)

Lisa throws the ball.

- SEOGI beats the defender and charges. - Hurry up, Na Gyeong!

SEOGI played it into space. Ben!

- Ben! - Ben!

- Let's go! - Let's go!

Hee Jun!

(Will Ben's shot seal the game?)

Hit it!

- Hit it! - Hit it!

SEOGI played it into space. Ben!

- Ben! - Ben!

Ben could have finished the game,

- but it narrowly misses. - Yes.

Nice.

Ben!

- Ben, that's it! - Nice, Ben!

There it is.

Get ready!

(Immediate counterattack)

KISUM throws it right away.

Focus!

- It hits SEOGI's head. Bo Kyung. - You need to go.

Na Gyeong and Mashima.

Mashima.

They jostle. Yu Mi.

- To Na Gyeong. - Na Gyeong, take it easy!

- Mashima charges. - She rushes in!

- Mashima! - They gave them space!

- Mashima! - Mashima!

- Mashima can't get to it. - Right.

Na Gyeong has good vision.

The pass has to come right then.

Are you okay?

Mashima is cramping up a little right now.

- Mashima! - Mashima!

I can't sit down for this.

I feel like I'm going to cramp up.

- She's been running nonstop. - This is an all-time final.

That was a great pass from Na Gyeong.

My gosh.

(FC Balladream has no substitutes now.)

- You're doing great! - They're giving it their all.

- One more! - Let's go, FC One the Woman!

Just one more!

- Lisa throws it long. - Let's go.

Hee Jun. SEOGI.

- Hee Jun keeps it in play. - Hee Jun.

- To Mashima! - Mashima!

- Mashima! - Mashima!

(Off Bo Kyung and out)

It goes out off Bo Kyung.

Bo Kyung came across to cover, and it deflects off her for a corner.

It's okay.

It's suddenly really tense.

Please, just score one.

FC One the Woman has to make this corner count.

Yes. Everyone in the stands is on their feet now.

(Possessed by the moment)

- One more time! Let's win! - TRUEDY's energy is...

reaching the FC One the Woman players.

FC One the Woman is playing...

right in front of its supporters.

- Yu Mi takes the corner. - Get in there, SEOGI.

- Yu Mi sends it in. - Hit it!

- KISUM! - KISUM!

- Off the post! - Let's do this!

- It's still in! - Hee Jun keeps it alive.

Okay.

Ben just boots it clear.

Nice!

Nice, Ben!

Our team is doing great!

Everyone in the stands is on their feet now.

That's right.

This is a huge moment.

It's almost over.

- Almost there. - All the way!

It looks like time's almost up.

It's been almost an hour.

That's it. We're almost done.

- One more! - Bo Kyung.

(Just 32 seconds left)

Just one more.

- You have to watch both. - KISUM is there.

Keep an eye on KISUM too. I'll stay in the middle.

If FC Balladream can survive this final push,

- it'll have the trophy in its hands. - It's okay. Step out a little more.

- Yes. - Let's go, FC One the Woman!

FC One the Woman's kick-in.

- Mashima. - Shoot!

- Goal! - It's in!

- Shoot! Goal! - It's in!

(Even the commentators jolt up.)

It's the equalizer!

(FC One the Woman's drama isn't over yet.)

Mashima!

It went in!

Oh, my gosh!

You did so well!

That was amazing!

FC One the Woman ties it up!

- Mashima. - A last-minute equalizer!

(Going wild)

What a drama!

This is pure drama.

Late in the second half, from the kick-in,

Mashima, who had kept knocking on the door,

finally scores again,

and the match is all square.

We need one more.

One more goal.

(Why do miracles happen?)

Don't do it.

(When everyone thinks it's over,)

Mashima cuts inside.

- Mashima shoots! - There's an opening!

Goal!

(they never stop believing.)

- She cuts back past the defenders. Goal! - Mashima! Goal!

(That determination to keep going to the very end)

- Mashima! - That was great!

(Miracles are never just luck.)

Oh, no.

This is bad.

(Victory slips away right before their eyes.)

Oh, no.

It's okay.

Nothing we can do about that. It's okay.

- We can't change that now. - It's okay.

We just need to go again.

- We just need one goal. - That's how these games go.

- We'll get another chance. - Right.

- Got it? - Yes.

- Let's go again. - Let's do this.

Remember what I said earlier?

Don't give up.

- Don't give up. - Okay, all the way to the end.

- Yes, all the way. - Let's get one.

Let's score and finish this.

(Both teams are equally relentless.)

- Let's go! - Let's go!

You're doing great!

For FC Balladream,

a game they had in hand...

- is wide open again. - Yes.

- Okay, it's fine. - Sorry.

- I'm sorry. - Did SEOGI get hurt there?

(SEOGI can't afford to rest despite the pain.)

(Tearing up)

We're all giving it everything we've got. You did great.

Our team will pull through.

Oh, no. I can feel it coming.

(Mashima is nearing her limit too, just short of cramping.)

Let's get one here. Please.

Don't keep it low. It's fine if it sails over.

Just think of it as driving it long.

Even if SEOGI wants a breather,

- You got this! - she has to get back on for now.

Thankfully, she's coming back onto the field.

A free kick for FC Balladream.

Bo Kyung is standing over it.

Mashima, drop back.

Here comes FC Balladream.

- Bo Kyung! - She sends it over the defense!

SEOGI made a great run into position,

but couldn't get a touch on it.

Get back!

- Is this a counterattack? - Get back!

- Minseo's ball. - Okay.

- Minseo heads it away, and SEOGI gets it. - SEOGI.

- SEOGI and Yu Mi. - SEOGI.

That's SEOGI.

She spins away from her...

and sends it diagonally again.

- Mashima comes to get it. - Mashima!

- Mashima, with two defenders closing in. - It's Mashima!

- Mashima has it. - Mashima.

- Mashima. - Mashima.

Nice!

Minseo gets in the way.

- It's FC One the Woman's ball. - Mashima!

(Even getting back up is a struggle.)

Please.

Please, just one.

- Should I give it to KISUM? - I can do it.

I can do it.

- Can you push up and shoot? - Just a little more!

FC Balladream, stay focused.

FC One the Woman's kick-in.

- Mashima. - It's Mashima.

She gets around Ben. Shoot!

It goes out off SEOGI.

Our ball!

Good. Thanks, SEOGI!

Nice!

This could be the final attack.

- This could really be the last chance. - This might be it.

It's from the same spot as before!

Get one more!

There's almost no time left.

With almost no time remaining,

there's no telling how this will end.

Another kick-in for FC One the Woman.

Wait.

(Will it turn it around?)

No.

Let's get through this!

Stay focused!

The goal is open!

- The goal is open! - It's wide open!

KISUM, take it and shoot.

- KISUM! - That's it!

- Hee Jun. - Hee Jun.

Come on!

There you go!

- The goal is wide open! - It is. Minseo turns to counter.

No, the goal!

The goal is open!

Minseo turns to counter.

Hee Jun does just enough to stop the counter.

- Spread out! Ben, get forward! - Ben.

Bo Kyung.

Great first touch from Ben.

She's got it under control.

She's coming.

- SEOGI. - You've got to get forward.

- She's making her way in. It's Ben. - Ben!

- Ben! - Ben!

Mashima shuts it down.

It's over.

That's full time.

It's over. What do we do?

And with that,

the final is tied 2-2...

- after regulation. - Right.

- Is it going to a shoot-out? - What?

(The trophy will be decided by a shoot-out.)

- Both teams have been amazing. - A shoot-out?

What a match. Both teams deserve that applause.

This time...

Have we ever had a shoot-out in a final?

No, never in a final.

- Right? Never. - Never.

(The first shoot-out in a final)

We can do this.

(Eight league seasons)

We can do it.

(Four cup tournaments)

(The first-ever final to go to a shoot-out)

You guys did so well.

It's not over yet.

- We have to win. - It's a shoot-out now, right?

If we'd lost 2-0, we honestly couldn't have said much.

But you fought until the very end and made it 2-2.

They're nervous over there now. They thought they'd won the final at 2-0,

and now it's come to this.

You created this opportunity yourselves.

- Let's take it. - Yes.

(We'll save ourselves once again.)

(Only silence fills the bench.)

Getting it back to 2-2 is incredible in itself.

Look at you.

YEWON and Kyoung Seo are both in pain,

but you still fought all the way and got us here.

We've taken a lot of penalty kicks during our practice matches.

So trust yourself and just take it with confidence.

Right. We've trained it a lot.

Whenever we practiced with Coach Lee,

he always made us take a shoot-out.

Just confidently place it where you want it.

- You know what I mean, right? - Yes.

(We'll save ourselves once again.)

Since YEWON and Kyoung Seo aren't in ideal condition to take a kick,

Lisa and Ben will probably have to step up as kickers as well.

FC One the Woman 2026 will have everyone except two players...

- take part in the shoot-out. - Yes.

(Reboot shoot-out record: 1 win, 2 losses.)

In 1, 2, 3.

- Let's go, FC One the Woman 2026! - Let's go, FC One the Woman 2026!

- FC Balladream! - FC Balladream!

- Way to go! - Way to go!

We got this!

We've come to this point in the end.

(Sparkling eyes)

- We want that trophy so badly. - I want to hold it.

Let's shed tears of joy together after this is over.

FC Balladream will go first.

Bo Kyung, let's go.

Bo Kyung, who scored the opening goal today,

is the first kicker.

When Coach told me I'd be the first kicker,

I thought I had to set the tone right here...

so my teammates could take their kicks with more confidence.

So I focused incredibly hard.

(The heaviest burden of the first kicker)

The keeper is KISUM.

We're just one step away from winning the title,

so I thought I had to save this one.

- Do it with confidence! - Do it with confidence!

She scored a brace in the semifinals and scored the opening goal in the final.

Bo Kyung always steps up with a confident kick.

No one can stop Bo Kyung's kick.

Let's stop it!

(So Myung, Yu Mi's father)

YEWON and Kyoung Seo are holding hands and cheering desperately.

You can do it.

She takes a shot. It's a success!

Bo Kyung steps up as the first kicker in the shoot-out and scores.

She struck it powerfully right into the spot...

she'd picked and scored.

Nice!

Nobody can stop that.

- Even I couldn't stop that. - Nobody could.

(Sorry. I guessed the direction wrong.)

It's okay.

(A change from attack to defense, a twist of fate.)

Lisa, you've got this!

And FC One the Woman 2026 has their most reliable kicker,

Mashima, going first.

They're determined to get off to a solid start.

(With unyielding will and determination,)

We can do this!

Mashima is up!

(Mashima worked a miracle and scored the equalizer.)

Mashima, way to go!

FC One the Woman 2026 has never won a title.

They've come such a long way to get here.

(That's why being the ace weighs even heavier on her shoulders.)

Go, Lisa!

We decided that we had to win this game for our injured teammates.

Mashima of FC One the Woman 2026.

Mashima scores!

Mashima scored with an inside-foot shot.

Nice.

Yes!

Nice play.

Okay. Let's go, Minseo!

FC Balladream's next kicker is Minseo, who's been a rock in defense.

My track record in shoot-outs isn't very good.

I've missed most of my kicks.

Minseo, let's go!

Go for it!

- Minseo, just focus on the ball. - You've got this!

Minseo, what else is there in life? Just hit it with confidence.

I knew the injured players would feel so bad for us,

so I wanted to win even more desperately.

Minseo!

She scores!

Even though KISUM guessed the direction,

the ball slipped past her at the side.

Yes!

Thank you so much!

Okay! Good job!

The further back FC One the Woman 2026 goes in the order,

- the tougher it gets for them. - Exactly.

- It's okay! - It's okay!

(Third kicker, Na Gyeong, experienced the shoot-out only once.)

(Fifth kicker, Hyun Jin, has no shoot-out experience.)

Lisa, let's go!

KISUM, the goalkeeper, steps up...

as FC One the Woman 2026's second kicker.

KISUM is also a kicker Coach Kim has a lot of faith in.

KISUM's shot is really good.

- KISUM, let's go! - Let's go!

(The goalkeeper who scores goals.)

KISUM, way to go!

Let's go, KISUM!

(The opponent is also a keeper.)

- KISUM! - KISUM!

It's blocked. Lisa won!

Lisa wins the battle between the two goalkeepers.

Good job, Lisa.

(Nice, Lisa!)

(Lee Kyu Chang, Lisa's husband)

Hey!

(The oldest player laid a foundation for victory.)

(Losing her grip)

Choose a direction for shooting.

- I'll focus even more. - Don't let your guard down.

It's okay.

KISUM, you can stop them.

Lisa!

Having a goalkeeper take an early kick in a shoot-out...

can really hurt her confidence if she misses.

Exactly. KISUM must be feeling pretty shaken mentally right now.

Ben, you can take it easy now.

We're one kick ahead.

Ben has to make the most of this situation.

Ben, be confident. You're doing so well.

Let's get a second goal.

Ben's really good at taking kicks.

- Just crush it. - You can do it.

Let's go, Ben!

My teammates kept telling me, "Focus on the ball. Just watch the ball,"

and I was so nervous.

KISUM must have taken a hit mentally.

The most important thing is...

- Ben's turn. - Ben, go for it!

This is where the team's comeback will be decided.

Where will Ben place her kick?

Ben, FC Balladream's third kicker.

(The fate of the game rests on Ben's foot.)

- Ben! Goal! - Goal!

Ben, the third kicker, scores too.

She scored on her first-ever shoot-out kick.

That was amazing!

I told you that you could do it!

I was so nervous.

I was really nervous.

(The ball beat her fingertips again.)

Okay.

It's okay.

It's okay. Kick it with confidence.

Now, it's Na Gyeong, the third kicker.

(One shoot-out experience)

Be confident.

(A 0-percent shoot-out success rate)

Lisa is making some strange movements.

She's getting more and more intense.

She's like a shaman dancing on blades.

Stop it once more.

- Lisa! - Lisa, you've got this!

I was so worried...

because I kept thinking, "What if I miss? What if I let the team down?"

- Na Gyeong! She scores! - Na Gyeong!

Na Gyeong's left-footed shot was clean.

Nice shot!

Nice!

Great job.

(She's got some room to breathe, but she's still on the brink.)

If SEOGI scores here,

FC Balladream will be well on their way to winning.

Score this, and we'll have some breathing room.

Let's go, SEOGI!

Seeing my teammates in struggle...

Do it as you've always done.

made me determined to win no matter what.

FC One the Woman 2026's KISUM has to save this one.

(If they don't win today,)

If I save this, we still have a chance.

(FC One the Woman 2026 will be left without a title once again.)

This is the most important moment.

SEOGI, you've got this. Do it like you always do.

SEOGI is getting ready with her left foot.

- SEOGI scores! - It's a goal!

It's now 4 to 2.

(A clear shot with no hesitation)

If just one of them misses, we win.

Your focus was amazing! Great shot. Thank you.

FC One the Woman 2026 is now completely on the brink.

This is a huge crisis.

They came back with a miracle equalizer...

and took the game all the way to a shoot-out,

but if Yu Mi of FC One the Woman 2026 doesn't score,

- the game is over. - Right.

Take it with confidence.

- Yu Mi, you can do it. - Believe in yourself.

(All the pressure and expectations are on her.)

Oh, my.

Yu Mi has no confidence right now.

I don't want to do a shoot-out.

(Yu Mi was afraid of the shoot-out.)

I missed in the last shoot-out.

I've been practicing since then, but I kept missing.

It became a trauma for me.

Under tremendous pressure, Yu Mi places the ball on the spot.

(Her lips trembling)

You got this, Lisa!

You can do it! Please, Lisa.

FC One the Woman's fourth kicker, Yu Mi.

(The pressure weighs heavily on her.)

Yu Mi is really nervous right now.

Be confident!

She's really nervous.

You can do it!

- You got this, Yu Mi! - You can do it!

(Unable to get started)

She looks nervous.

Yu Mi, you got this!

- Yu Mi shoots! - It's in!

FC One the Woman can breathe a sigh of relief.

(Shoot-out status)

She overcame the immense pressure, and Yu Mi scores!

(You did great, my girl!)

Yu Mi!

(The ball brushes past her foot.)

So close.

- She read it well. - You did a good job!

And now, with Kyoung Seo and YEWON injured,

goalkeeper Lisa steps up as the kicker.

I have to make a save.

After blocking KISUM's shot,

Lisa now faces KISUM from the other side.

Goalkeeper Lisa now has the chance...

to end the match right here.

Just do what you always do!

Just kick it as you practiced.

- You've practiced so much. - The direction!

(She's practiced shooting over and over despite being a goalkeeper.)

(Now it's time to show it.)

- Lisa, you can do it! - Lisa!

Let's go!

Put it in!

If KISUM stops Lisa here,

she can keep the shoot-out alive.

KISUM, you got this!

KISUM, you got this!

- Please. - You got this!

- Shoot-outs really are... - Be composed.

You can do it!

- Goal! - She scores!

Lisa scores as well, and the match is over.

(FC Balladream wins the championship)

Great job!

We won!

We actually won!

(Even after two unbelievable setbacks,)

(the miracle was achieved through their united determination.)

We did it.

(Running straight into her teammates' arms)

(You worked so hard. Thank you.)

Great job.

(FC Balladream wins the second GIFA Cup)

(They stayed until the end, cheering with all their hearts.)

Great job!

(The trophy is presented to Kyoung Seo and YEWON.)

Great job.

(Sacrifice and dedication for one another)

This is insane.

(A miracle written on top of it all)

You did so well.

(The kind of emotion only sports can deliver)

You've been through a lot, haven't you?

- FC One the Woman! - FC One the Woman!

Why are you crying so much?

Why are you crying?

You worked so hard.

I'm so happy right now.

It feels like...

I can't believe this isn't a dream.

I'm just so happy.

I wanted to do whatever I could...

to put a smile on Kyoung Seo's face.

I think I got overwhelmed and started crying.

- We have to be stronger. - Let's win.

(They grow stronger together through crisis.)

We can do it.

(Friendship)

(A lifelong bond,)

(brought together by soccer)

- Take that back. - I take it back.

(Two friends who brighten each other's lives)

(What made FC Balladream champions...)

(was her heartfelt devotion to Kyoung Seo.)

I kept thinking, "Kyoung Seo, stay strong."

And I just kept tearing up.

(KISUM and Mashima hug each other.)

You worked so hard.

We wouldn't have made it this far without you.

- I wanted to win. - Me too.

You worked so hard.

(The trophy always seems just out of reach.)

(All that's left is a broken heart.)

I can't help thinking,

"Was it because of me?"

It's nobody's fault.

It's not your fault.

(The captain shoulders all the blame alone.)

No one remembers second place.

Now...

I could see the trophy right there.

But it still feels so far away.

Seriously...

Coming this far is already a great achievement.

(Even with the staff's encouragement and comfort,)

- If you had a little more time, right? - Yes.

(the disappointment won't easily fade.)

You were amazing.

You did so well.

You did great.

Any words for your teammates who worked so hard?

For my teammates...

Everyone really worked so hard.

This time,

we thought of it like it was our last chance.

We even stayed together at Yu Mi's house for 20 days...

and trained together.

Yu Mi took such good care of us.

That's why I wanted to win so badly.

That's all I can say.

I'm sorry.

(When will FC One the Woman finally claim the title?)

Winning a championship really is hard.

They fought fiercely for their teams' honor.

The second Shooting Stars GIFA Cup Tournament.

To all the players and coaches...

who gave it their all throughout the season,

please give a big round of applause.

Thank you.

Thank you.

(The runners-up graciously congratulate the champions)

Great job.

The second Shooting Stars GIFA Cup!

The champions are...

Hooray!

FC Balladream!

(The first team in Shooting Stars history to win two Cup Tournaments)

FC Balladream writes a new chapter in Shooting Stars history.

(A new page in history written by FC Balladream)

Not a single moment came easy.

But they delivered miraculous matches every step of the way...

and once again rose to the very top.

(A glorious result earned through everyone's hard work)

Congratulations to FC Balladream on their championship!

I'm really proud to be part of FC Balladream.

When I first auditioned,

I said, "I want to join FC Balladream."

I'm glad I said that back then.

It's been a journey that made me proud to be part of FC Balladream.

I just want to say thank you to every team member.

Thanks to our coach and coaching staff for leading us all the way.

I truly believe we became one team.

Thank you. We won because of this team.

(YEWON and Kyoung Seo are recovering together in the same room.)

(The second GIFA Cup)

After igniting a women's soccer boom in Korea, Shooting Stars is...

now taking on a new challenge! Handball.

I really didn't know what handball was.

It was too intense.

The physical battles get really fierce.

It's three times fiercer than soccer.

Can we really do this?

It's the UFC of ball games.

That scene was so shocking...

that I couldn't focus afterward.

I don't know what I was thinking. I must've gone crazy.

My whole body ached.

Can I be honest?

It was so frustrating.

(And the legends show up!)

(Yoon Kyung Shin: A handball legend, the first Asian player to play...)

(in the Bundesliga and a seven-time top scorer)

In the end, it's a matter of pride.

I want to win.

Winning is my goal, so I'm on the same page as the players.

(Lee Sang Eun: The real-life inspiration behind "Forever the Moment,")

(1996 Atlanta silver medalist, and 2004 Athens team captain)

They're historic figures.

I just want them to feel that joy once again.

(Park Ha Yan: 2022 Asian Women's Club League champion...)

(and 2021-2022 Handball Korea League runner-up)

I feel really bad for her,

but I couldn't hear a word Coach Ha Yan said.

(Park Jung Geu: Asia's No. 1 pivot and Handball Cup commentator)

(Bae Min Hee: 2008 Beijing Olympic bronze medalist...)

(and 2015 Asian Championship gold medalist)

(Kim O Na: Legendary handball center back...)

(and 2008 Beijing Olympic bronze medalist)

(Sim Jae Bok: Asian Games gold, silver, and bronze medalist,)

(and 2025–2026 Handball H League overall champion)

(A new play begins.)

Once Hye Jung comes in, no one knows what will happen.

You know I played basketball, right?

So I know how to use my hands.

Hye Jung is really an amazing player.

She seems to know exactly what she has to do.

- That's amazing! - Incredible!

(A sneak peek at the Asian Games)

So there's a game like this.

Handball is really exciting too.

I think I'm better at it than soccer.

- Here comes Mashima! - Great.

Mashima!

(Mashima beyond limits)

No way!

I remember training so hard, pouring my blood, sweat, and tears...

into it while filming "Forever the Moment."

To be really honest, I think handball is more exciting than soccer.

(A more intense Shooting Stars is coming.)

I think everyone is aiming for the championship.

Jai makes a run! Ji An!

(Their next battle begins.)

It feels like another chapter of my life.

(The best moment of our lives is right now!)

We'll have to work even harder than we did for soccer.

(Wishing Korea's women's handball team the best at the 2026 Asian Games.)

(Shooting Stars Handball Cup Tournament!)

(The first game premieres next week!)
