Into the book
“Oh my, I missed the semifinals.
Even if we beat Kangil Elementary School and advance to the quarterfinals, our next opponent is Baekho Elementary School.
Baekho Elementary School's round of 16 opponent, Myeongjin Elementary School, has never beaten Baekho Elementary School.
“So, we’re going to face the 1st and 2nd place teams from last year back to back.” The terrified kids looked at the bracket again.
As Joo-ho said, the quarterfinal opponent was Baekho Elementary School.
It was literally a mountain beyond a mountain.
--- p.22
It was completely different from the previous game where the players who had to be blocked were roughly decided.
So, to stop Ji-Hoon's team, a different defensive strategy was needed, but the players didn't know which strategy would be appropriate.
As if adding insult to injury, the poor defense directly led to a weakening of the offense.
--- p.57
“Park Ga-young, you’re a candidate? Aren’t you better than the starting Dong-woo?” At that moment, Dong-woo’s face turned red and blue.
Gayoung's defense had been annoying all along, and the day finally came when she was compared to me.
--- p.63
“Let’s think of a better strategy for the future!” That was it.
“I think I know how.” It was Ji-hoon.
The god of soccer knows how? The players' ears perked up.
“It’s about changing positions.
Let's take out Nayeon and make Dongwoo a defender, and make Gayoung the starting goalkeeper.
Then the goalkeeper and left defense will be strengthened at the same time.”
--- p.67
The delivery man kicked the soccer ball off the playground floor with his toe and began lifting it.
And that too, by using your head, shoulders, feet, back, and knees evenly.
It was as if the ball was attached to my body, and I could move freely.
The scent of coriander was strong.
--- p.89
"good.
So, let's get started! First, let's remember how important the goalkeeper is.
If you block one goal, it's like scoring one.
A goalkeeper's job is not simply to block the ball, but to prevent the team from losing.
“So be proud!” Coach Hwang’s eyes lit up.

Publisher's Review
□ A super save by Daepung Elementary School players that prevented the team from losing!
Most soccer players who are popular with the audience are often 'strikers'.
Sharp shooting and quick breakthrough skills lead directly to scoring and lead the team to victory.
That's why defenders and goalkeepers are considered relatively unpopular positions.
The reason most sports movies feature attackers as the main characters is probably because of their flashiness and popularity.
Volume 4 of "On the Ball" highlights Dong-woo and Ga-young, who take on the unusual role of goalkeepers, emphasizing that defense is just as important as offense.
There is a saying that 'a goalkeeper's job is not to prevent goals but to prevent the team from losing', and the goalkeeper is the player who determines the team's victory or defeat until the very end.
Author Seong-wan Seong, who has been writing the "On the Ball" series, has tried to show the importance and charm of goalkeepers by actively revealing the story of goalkeepers, who have not received much attention so far, in Volume 4.
Against a team known for its fierce offense, Kangil Elementary School, a "super save"—a term used to describe a goalkeeper's exceptional defensive skills—is absolutely essential! Daepung Elementary School's goalkeepers learn to throw themselves at the ball to prevent a shot, or even a team defeat.
Through the hundreds of dives we see from goalkeepers who jump higher and further, we learn how dazzling those who do their best in their role, even if they go unnoticed, can be.
□ “You can only overcome trials if you face them like a ball!”
The only way for Daepungcho to overcome the crisis!
The Daepung Elementary School players who have advanced to the finals are entering high-intensity training with overflowing confidence.
Although they have advanced to the round of 16 relying on the individual skills of several players, they can never win the main tournament without a strong offense and defense.
However, they soon face the threat of defeat as a fatal flaw in their defense is discovered.
Since it is a tournament match where a loss prevents them from playing the next match, the attacking powerhouse Kangil Elementary School poses an even greater threat.
In particular, starting goalkeeper Dong-woo is unable to fully focus on the ball due to the pressure of having to block the pouring shots.
In Volume 4, Daepungcho is forced to confront an opponent he wants to avoid and reveal a weakness he doesn't want to be discovered.
But players realize that solutions can only be found by facing every situation head-on rather than avoiding it.
This is because I have learned through many training sessions and matches that if you take your eyes off the ball flying at you, you cannot stop it.
Daepung Elementary School is the weakest team among the teams that advanced to the finals, but their ability to face crises is superior to that of any other team.
To escape the crisis of not being able to become soccer players and to prevent Daepung Elementary School from closing down, the children who created their own soccer team have the strength to overcome difficulties.
Will the Daepung Elementary School players be able to overcome the relentless onslaught of crises once again? The way Daepung Elementary School overcomes these challenges will be a source of strength for young readers living today.
□ New characters appear! Who is the chicken delivery man who came to school!?
In Volume 4, a mysterious character who has never appeared before appears, heightening curiosity.
The helmeted deliveryman not only observes the training of the Daepungcho, but also does not hesitate to interfere in the strategy meeting.
Rumors abound, such as Kang Il-cho's spy, just a nosy person, or a national soccer player, but the truth is tightly hidden behind his helmet.
What is the delivery man's true identity? The soccer story unfolds in earnest as the delivery man, with his top-notch soccer skills, takes over as coach at Daepung Elementary School.
The appearance of unique 5th and 6th graders is also an unmissable element of fun in Volume 4.
Ji-Hoon, a 6th grade senior who is called the God of Soccer, actively participates in training and shows fresh chemistry with the Daepung Elementary School players.
Training with new characters is also an event that shows that the Daepung Elementary School soccer team, which was previously considered indifferent, is gradually gaining attention and becoming a team loved by people of all ages.
The round of 16 of Daepung Elementary School has become even more fun and enriching with the addition of a new coach and the support of a strong training partner, and you can watch it in Volume 4.
