Camila is cleared to hit the soccer pitch again, but she has a hard time getting back into her groove as la Furia, especially since half the players on the team are new. Roxana isn’t talking to her, and Camila heads to El Buen Pastor with a heavy heart. Everyone, including ten-year-old Karen, seems to be under the impression that Camila will go to Italy to be with Diego, but Camila tells her she’s going to follow her own path. She won’t give up her dream of playing soccer, even for Diego.
Three months pass in a blur as Camila and her team prepare for the Sudamericano tournament. Roxana still won’t talk to Camila, but the rest of the team is finding unity as they scrimmage and practice together. Coach Alicia pulls Camila aside after a practice to compliment the way she’s been playing, but also to remind her to play with joy. Coach can sense the heaviness weighing on Camila’s heart because of uncertainty about Diego, her broken relationship with Roxana, and trouble at home. That evening with her family, Camila sees Diego on TV giving an interview before his game.
