Rin’s awakening didn’t last long. He was able to mess up Kaiser and Isagi’s prodigy chemical reaction, but every time he tried to score the final goal, they shut him down. Kaiser and Isagi were literally destroying Rin at every turn. However, they could not score either.
PXG had their own defensive monsters, Charles and Karasu. These two made sure Kaiser and Isagi did not get their goal no matter what.
Still, BM managed to break through. They had the perfect winning goal lined up, and everything was set… but then Ness fumbled because of his weird master-servant obsession with Kaiser. Just like that, BM’s confirmed victory turned to dust. Then the game changed again.
Rin evolved late-match for the second time. He clashed with Kaiser, but this time, Kaiser broke Rin. Now the ball is up in the air, and nobody knows who is getting it.
Whoever wins this next move is about to control the entire flow of the game. My guess is Ness will get the ball and Blue Lock Chapter 291 is going to be his redemption chapter.

What To Expect From Blue Lock Chapter 291 Bastard Munchen’s Counter-Attack
Blue Lock Chapter 291 is gonna be all about BM’s counter-attack. Rin was so close to scoring. He even got past Isagi.
But Kaiser stopped him, alone. Now PXG lost the ball. BM does not have it yet either. Someone from BM is about to grab it, and the most likely is going to be Ness.
The dude has been invisible the whole match. The only time he finally got some spotlight. He messed it up completely. Kaiser even told him to quit football.
Till now, Ness had only one purpose, to make Kaiser the best. But after botching that sure-win goal, the entire team humiliated him. If he wants to redeem himself, he has to awaken.
I think next chapter, we are finally gonna see Ness evolve. He might become the key to BM’s win in the final moments.
Bastard München vs. PXG started in Chapter 249 and it’s still going. However, the author confirmed Volume 33 will wrap up the match. That means Phase 2: Neo-Egoist League will probably end around Chapter 292 or 293.
BM needs a game-changer right now. Ness makes the most sense, but if it’s someone else, it could be Kunigami. He is been kinda there but not really doing much. Maybe this is his moment?
Blue Lock Chapter 290 Recap – Rin vs. Isagi & Kaiser!
This chapter picks up right where the last one ended. PXG is making their move, and Rin is showing just how crazy he really has become because of Isagi and Kaiser. The ball was sent to Charles after Rin stopped the attack.
Shidou is all fired up, ready to counter. Then Charles yells, “Ready, go!!” Isagi instantly knows something is off.
His whole plan just got flipped. He is trying to figure out how Rin read them so perfectly. Then Rin explained he had been watching Isagi and Kaiser the whole time, memorizing every move, reaction, and physical limit.
He has locked in on Isagi within a 4m radius, just waiting for the right moment to ruin everything. Isagi starts panicking. If he moves alone, his chemistry with Kaiser breaks down, and Bastard Munchen’s whole rhythm collapses.
But he knows he can not just back off. Rin has completely refreshed himself like he just unlocked a new version of himself mid-match.
PXG GOES ALL IN
Nanase and Karasu rush forward, while Charles passes the ball to Nanase after receiving it from Rin. Zantetsu tries to join and stop them, however, they blast past BM’s midfield.
Charles finds the perfect moment and delivers a killer pass, but not to Rin… to Shidou. Shidou is loving this. He’s out here flirting mid-game and singing. Kunigami is right there, trying to block him. But instead of shooting, Shidou passes to Rin!
Now it is Rin vs. Isagi again, goal is 33 meters away. A little too far to shoot, but if they move forward just a bit, it is a perfect scoring spot.
Isagi instantly realizes, Rin wants to crash into him, break his rhythm, then fire a shot. But Isagi is not about to let that happen.

KAISER CRASHES THE PARTY
Just when it looks like another Isagi vs. Rin showdown, Kaiser jumps in. Isagi calls him, and Kaiser doesn’t hesitate. He knows exactly where the clash and shoot spot is and barges right in.
He was waiting for this. But instead of clashing with Isagi… he goes straight for Kaiser. Now it’s Kaiser vs. Rin.
Isagi is watching, realizing Rin is no longer just playing to win, he is trying to destroy Isagi alongside, and this time he is way too serious! Rin believed he could get past Kaiser easily.
Sorry, but when it comes to physical contact, I had a special education since I was a kid.
However, he did not know Kaiser had much more experience when it comes to physical contact, and Kaiser was able to spin the ball mid-air, flipping the whole situation. Rin is shocked as he did not predict this.
The chapter ends with Isagi complimenting Kaiser, saying Are you a superstar?
