Andre (アンドレ)

Andre is an Italian player who plays as a forward for the elementary school of Saint Angelus FC. He wears the number "10" jersey. He appears exclusively for the 1983 anime.

Saint Angelus debuted when the best team of the city, Colosseus, wanted to kick them out of the public soccer field, due to Saint Angelus' lack of ability to play soccer. In order to defend themselves, both Giovanni and Martino attempted to score a goal but Colosseus' keeper easily block their shots. Then, similar to what Roberto did in Kids' Dream arc for the duel between Tsubasa and Wakabayashi, Misaki perfectly centered the ball so the most talented player, Andre was able to do a diving header and score them.

Due to this, Colosseus' keeper was angry and accepted a real match against them a week from then. Astonished by Misaki's ball control and instinct, the team manager, Elena insisted him on be their temporary coach during his stay in Naples. So, Misaki asked them to hardly train every day but not without telling them to be "Friends of the Ball", which was Roberto's philosophy of playing soccer.

A week later, Saint Angelus was ready to face Colosseus, so they both equally played, gaining confidence on themselves little by little, specially the keeper Pietro who was scared of the ball (similar to a younger Morisaki). At half time, the score was 0:0, so Saint Angelus decided to give the ball to Andre, since he was the most capable of beating the keeper who had a great save ability. Pietro could not save a goal from being scored, but just a little after, Andre went near the PK area and finally made a feint shot to the keeper, tricking him, and beating him at last (a feat that was praised by Misaki, who said that Andre reminded him of Tsubasa himself).

In the last minutes of the game, since Colosseus was getting confident in getting a tie, Misaki insisted Saint Angelus to go for all, and win the game, which was their objective and a week effort's worth. Pietro overlapped and made a center to the penalty area, and, then Giovanni, Martino, and Andre all went for a teamwork header and scored in the last moment, beating Colosseus 2:1 and getting the field for themselves.
