さよならフットボール [Sayonara Football] #2

The cover of this second volume sets the tone perfectly — a determined young girl in a red number-14 jersey winds up for a powerful kick, her expression radiating fierce focus as a soccer ball spins dramatically in the upper corner. Niiro Shindou's Sayonara Football follows a girl pushing hard against the boundaries of a boys' soccer world, and this Kōdansha Monthly Shōnen Magazine Comics release captures that spirit of grit and passion in a single glance. Fans of sports manga with heart will find plenty to cheer for here.
