Team Blue Lock
CharacterTeam Blue Lock is the collective banner under which the facility fields sides against outside opposition, from the star-studded Team World Five to Japan's under-20 national team. Eight lineups have carried the name, capped by the official Blue Lock Eleven.
Overview
Team Blue Lock refers to the side, or set of sides, that stand in for the facility whenever it faces players from outside organizations such as Team World Five or Japan U-20. Eight lineups have represented the program to date: the seven clear teams from the Second Selection plus the official Team Blue Lock, whose designated starting group is known as the Blue Lock Eleven.
Role
These lineups exist to test the facility's talent against elite external competition. The clear teams each took a turn against Team World Five and were beaten in every meeting, most by a five-goal shutout, with the first and seventh clear teams managing only a lone consolation strike apiece. The official eleven fared far better in a separate showdown.
