Continuity mistake: Morisaki parries a header from Shimada's number 8, but during the 'freeze' in action that highlights the dramatic save, a player kicking the ball is instead shown, and in the next shot we see a number 10 (with different hair from the usual number 10) in front of the goal. Morisaki is also back wearing a number 1 jersey. (00:08:00)

The Fight for the Final - S1-E24
