[ Story ]

The live-action adaptation of the identically titled soccer manga by Tsunamoto Masaya and Yoshimoto Motoki which depicts the comeback of a man who returns to a minor team upon receiving a notice of dismissal from a prominent team. In the director's chair is Tani Kenji of Ryusei.
31-year-old Kono Nobuhiko (Baba Ryoma) is dismissed from a prominent team and rejoins his former team, the Chiba Gems, on the condition his jersey number is #10, the star player's number. However, what awaits Kawano is the exploitation of his title as a former national team member by the management and the chilly scrutiny of the younger players.
