In Giant Killing a ragtag bunch from East Tokyo are struggling in Japan's top football league. The team is going through an abysmal spell right now where they are nearing the bottom of the table and have lost 5 matches in a row. The loses haven't done much to team moral, because it was already low. Fan support, on the other hand, is looking bleak. In the world of football, once the fans turn on a team the end is near. Teams don't recover. Coaches are fired, players are sold, and teams drop to smaller divisions where profits often prevent them from ever being successful against even mediocre top division programs. East Tokyo United, ETU, can only blame their coach right now. And Coach is ready to give up this next game to prove to his team and fans, that against the biggest club in the nation he can make this team win.

This anime is very good if you like football and if you like to watch weak teams suppress themselves. Tittle of anime is very suited because they are bringing big teams down. In this anime you can say that the "main" hero is the coach, but the story is builded around all of the players, and they development. In this anime you will see what coaches really do, and how they work affecting the whole team.
So this anime is basically god choice if you really like football, and have spare time, beacuse it is really time-consuming show.
