Summary
“Few can forget, of course, the drama of the last PIFA World Cup two years ago, when Japanese football player Yoichi Isagi was outed as gay by fellow teammate Rin Itoshi in an altercation that took place before the semi-finals match with Brazil. Isagi was asked to step away from the tournament as a result of the host country’s policies regarding homosexuality and concerns for his safety.”
“Many say that losing their captain is what cost Japan that match, you know.”
_______
Rin outs Isagi by accident at the 2022 World Cup to avoid being outed himself. Now, two years later, they’ve both been selected to play for the Japanese National Team once again. Rin knows that this is his only chance at redemption. Isagi still has some lingering resentment. They’ll have to find a way to work together again if they want a chance to qualify for the next World Cup tournament.Winning is the only thing that matters. Right?
