Overview
The end of the first set approaches and Fukurōdani is currently in the lead 18-21. Despite the efforts from Nekoma, they are unable to catch up and the first set goes to Fukurōdani, 21-25. Coach Nekomata gives the team encouragement and the second set begins. The score is 16-14 with Nekoma in the lead but Bokuto seems to have hit a wall. He claims that he no longer remembers how to do crosses which puts Fukurōdani in a pinch!
