Recap of Blue Lock chapter 238
In chapter 238 of Blue Lock, titled "Dreamers," Hiori Yo skillfully overcame the Ubers defense, starting with Ikki Niko. Shortly after, Don Lorenzo attempted a tackle, but Hiori cleverly evaded it by feigning a shot. Just as Hiori was about to pass to Isagi, Shoei Barou intervened to stop him.

Simultaneously, while Isagi was attracting attention from Aryu Jyubei, Michael Kaiser entered the picture. With the firm belief that Hiori was about to pass to Isagi, he swiftly arrived to snatch the goal.
Despite Barou blocking Hiori's vision, he instinctively crossed the ball towards Isagi. Simultaneously, Isagi began moving without even glancing at the ball. This swift reaction enabled Isagi to reach the ball ahead of everyone else, ultimately leading him to score the winning goal.
What to expect from Blue Lock chapter 239?

Anticipated in the upcoming Blue Lock chapter 239, appropriately titled "Creation!", is the highly probable triumph of Bastard Munchen over their rivals, Ubers. Consequently, this may prompt Hiori Yo to ultimately reach a definitive resolution concerning his professional path. Although he had initially resolved to abandon football during the match, his decision may have undergone a transformation subsequent to the pivotal goal.
Otherwise, the chapter could also focus on Michael Kaiser, who lost his challenge against Isagi. Hence, his reaction to the loss could hugely impact the upcoming chapters of the manga.

I'm especially excited to see how Hiori Yo and Yoichi Isagi's relationship develops. Their synchronization in the previous chapter was incredible, and I'm curious to see if they can continue to work together so effectively.
I'm also interested to see what happens to Michael Kaiser after his loss to Isagi. He's a very talented player, and I'm sure he'll be back stronger than ever. I'm also curious to see how the Bastard Munchen team reacts to their victory over Ubers. Will they be able to maintain their momentum, or will they let it get to their heads?
Overall, I'm very excited for the upcoming chapter of Blue Lock. It's sure to be full of action and suspense, and I can't wait to see what happens next.
