Stadium Opening Match) is a 10-page oneshot story created as a promotional item for the F.C.R.B. Stadium Project exhibition, a work of Japanese architect Nobuo Araki for the fictional team F.C. Real Bristol (or F.C.R.B, also part of a larger project).

The manga is a promotional product for the F.C.R.B Project, so it is not part of the canon of the regular series.

Story[]

The story is a fantasy match between Tsubasa and Friends (Jun Misugi, Hermann Kaltz, Pepe, Shingo Aoi, Hikaru Matsuyama, Genzo Wakabayashi, the Tachibana twins, Hanji Urabe, Ryo Ishizaki, Taro Misaki, Rivaul, Radunga, Carlos Santana, Mamoru Izawa, Teppei Kisugi and Hajime Taki) vs. Hyuga All Stars (Makoto Soda, Ken Wakashimazu, Kazuki Sorimachi, Takeshi Sawada, Karl Heinz Schneider, Stefan Levin, Xiao Junguang, Brian Cruyfford, Ryoma Hino, Natureza, Tomeya Akai, Salvatore Gentile, Gino Hernandez, Ramon Victorino, Elle Sid Pierre and Louis Napoleon) to inaugurate the F.C.R.B. Stadium.

Tsubasa Friends start the attack, but Hyuga All Stars defend well. A Fire Shoot from Schneider is repelled by Wakabayashi, but Hyuga scores with a Tiger Volley, the opening goal of the F.C.R.B. Stadium. Tsubasa immediately picks up the ball and gets ready to counter attack. The manga closes with the phrase "football is forever".
