It follows the story of Endou Mamoru (or Mark Evans, if you don't like Japanese names), the [[Hot-Blooded|spirited]] goalkeeper of Raimon Junior High's nearly-disbanded football team consisting of only seven members. Although Endou inherits his deceased grandfather's goalkeeping skills and love for soccer, his teammates are somewhat less motivated. Things take a drastic turn when legendary ace striker [[New Transfer Student|Gouenji Shuuya]] moves to Inazuma town. Desperate to recruit more members before the school shuts down the soccer club and also hoping to participate in the celebrated national Football Frontier tournament, Endou tries to convince Gouenji to join his team. However, Gouenji's arrival has also caught the attention of [[Opposing Sports Team|Teikoku Academy]], the champion of Football Frontier for 40 consecutive years, who then proceed to arrange a "friendly match" with Raimon.
