The stage is the World Cup's final. Spectators: eighty thousand. You are on that field. The last play—if you pass, you can almost certainly get a point. But in a situation where the championship is on the line... you shoot without hesitation. Only those sorts of crazy egotists may proceed ahead.

this situation where rin-chan was willing to accept an L happened when he determined his self-worth through his relationships—letting his team take on the game from that point on would mean that he let his "inability to read itoshi sae, even though they're brothers" define his wins and losses, so if he had let his team support him he'd just reinforce the notion that his value was determined by other people. n so I think he had successfully swerved into the lane of blue lock-correctness when he chose to continue pushing through by himself in order to score and win, changing the part of him that was willing to lose bc he let his relationships define his wins and losses

so at least for a minute or so things were going very well for itoshi rin, he won the duel against itoshi sae not because he's his brother not because he values himself in relation to his brother, but because he chose to fight by himself and by affirming his own sense of self
