Embers chapter 16 recap

Embers chapter 16, titled Boredom, opened with Kurobayashi ace Yuzen Nerima getting subbed into the match. While Shizuki Yukizuki had laid out several plans to deal with him, the ace managed to outdo all of them. Nerima defeated Yuga Takami in pace, Noboru Haitani and Kaoru Bugai in physicality, and destroyed Kosei's man-to-man strategy to score an equalizer.

While Bugai believed they could take control of the match again, the Kosei High players had lost hope and soon conceded another goal, putting them at a deficit. Amidst such adversity, Noboru Haitani decided to step up and face the Kurobayashi ace one-on-one.

What to expect from Embers chapter 17?

Embers chapter 17 will likely focus on Noboru Haitani facing Yuzen Nerima one-on-one. While Haitani was nowhere as skilled as Nerima in playing football, he was confident about his ball-stealing skills.

In the previous chapter, he lost to Yuzen Nerima's physicality while teaming up with his captain Bugai. So, the chances are that in the next chapter, he might face the Kurobayashi captain in an unconventional way.

Unfortunately, there is no way to predict how Haitani plans on defeating Nerima, but it could have something to do with his time spent studying with Hikage.
