~Kashima Antlers - Gaku Shibasaki~Kashima Antlers captain, Gaku Shibasaki. Although the team is known as an "ever-victorious" club, it has been a long time since they last won a title. Shibasaki, who had been playing in Spain, was entrusted with rebuilding the team and returned. He takes on a new challenge. Shibasaki also played as a playmaker for the Japan national team. With his accurate passes born from his wide vision, he has created numerous scoring opportunities. This year, at 32, he leads the Antlers with the goal of winning the championship. He is quiet and stoic, but he pays attention to changes around him with his unique "observational skills." However, in the second half of the season, the manager was dismissed. In this difficult situation, Shibasaki tries to motivate his teammates. In the final match, they will face Machida Zelvia, led by his former mentor, Go Kuroda. This broadcast will depict the untold story of a solitary genius.
