What to expect from Blue Lock Chapter 259?

In the previous chapter titled Combine-Invent-New Weapon, fans saw the reactions of others to Isagi's new technique, through which he was able to secure an important goal. Chapter 258 also saw a change in a team with Kurona replacing Grim. In continuation with that, Chapter 259 is likely to reveal who emerges stronger- Isagi or Kaiser. Speculative theories suggest that there could be a change in tactics with the primary focus on Isagi. Should he secure another goal, he would be dubbed a better player.
