FC Tokyo U-15 Fukagawa, who achieved a long-awaited victory after 3 years and is on the verge of a historic triumph, winning both the Prince Takamado Cup U-18 and U-15 tournaments in the same year for the first time in history by the same club.
The final match of the 29th Emperor's Cup All Japan Youth (U-15) Soccer Championship, which was greeted with clear weather, was held at "AJINOMOTO FIELD NISHIGAOKA".
The opponent in the final round is Sagan Tosu U-15, who won the 32nd Japan Club Youth Soccer Championship (U-15) in the summer.
Coach Ota said, "The opponent is the champion of summer, but let's start strong and take the initiative. Let's prepare well in every aspect on the best pitch."
When you are struggling, talk to your teammates and fight until the end without giving up, believing in your teammates. "
In the venue where many fans and supporters, a total of 1,181 people, gathered, FC Tokyo U-18 players and many staff members also came.
The game, in which we united and challenged together, started at 13:00 with a kickoff in Fukagawa.

【First Half】
Fukagawa wanted to make an aggressive move, but they were deprived of the opening goal by Tosu.
2 minutes, the ball was taken away when it entered the opponent's territory, and a through pass was played into the left penalty area.
When this powerful shot was taken, GK Kumagura saved it once, but the loose ball was sucked into the goal, resulting in the first goal conceded in this tournament.
After that, Fukagawa, who couldn't create a solid attacking formation, had a chance in the 15th minute when Aoki, who had entered the left penalty area, intercepted a loose ball from a corner kick, but Tokiwa's volley missed the target.
On the other hand, in the 18th minute, from the right side, and in the 20th minute, from the flow of the opponent's corner kick second ball, GK KUMAKURA was made one-on-one, but caught it in front.
While the opponent's time continues, Fukagawa also sends middle passes and other passes behind the opponent's defense, making Sasunuma and Aoki run, but they are unable to create their own time due to the opponent's tight marking.
Still, Fukagawa, who actively aimed for the opponent's back, took a shot at the goal with a long ball to Aoki, who had run behind the defense, from the loose ball that Sasanuma and Tokiwa had fought for after 30 minutes.
In addition, in the 35th minute, Yasuda had a one-on-one opportunity with the GK after a one-two with Sasunuma, but the opposing GK who came out blocked the path and the shot went wide of the goal.
Fukagawa, who never gives up, cuts off Tosu's goal kick on the left side and connects it to Sasunuma with one touch, who then passes a floating ball to Aoki.
Ryo AOKI, who ran into the PA corner, calmly confirmed the position of the opponent's goalkeeper and scored a right-footed looping shot to equalize.
Aoki scored his 9th goal of the tournament and the first half ends in a tie.

【Halftime】
Coach Ota: "We conceded a goal, but we recovered well from that. Let's make good use of the wings. Don't lose in one-on-one situations. The real battle starts now. Let's all win and celebrate."

【Second half】
Sagan Tosu took control of the game.
Fukagawa kicks a long ball into the opponent's half in order to push them back, but there are many periods of time where they are unable to pick up the second ball and are pushed in.
Among them, in the 44th minute, Sugawara broke through on the left side and took a shot from an angleless position, but it hit the side net.
At 51 minutes, Kimura drops the ball behind the opponent's defensive line, and Aoki initiates a dribble while competing with the opponent.
In the end, the ball was passed to Yasuzaki who ran to the right, but the shot missed the target.
The defense team continued to withstand the opponent's continuous attacks, bravely defending around the penalty area.
At the 75th minute, Kumakura punches away the opponent's corner kick, but they pick up the loose ball and take consecutive shots.
The Fukagawa defense team, on the other hand, threw themselves into the shot and blocked it with their bodies.
The last shot missed to the right of the frame, and the goal was defended with determination.
Fukagawa's chance scene ended just before the 80th minute.
Soma ANZAI sticks in the midfield, breaks through, and in the end, Sugawara crosses the ball but it gets cut off by the opponent.
Enduring a difficult time, we reached the 80th minute and headed into extra time.

【Extra Time First Half】
In the start of the extra time, Fukagawa launches an offensive, but Tosu keeps control.
However, we continued to respond without losing concentration for 90 minutes.
Ryo AOKI was fouled just outside the opponent's penalty area, and a free kick was awarded.
New tries to aim for this directly with his left foot, but is blocked by the wall and the first half ends.

[Extra time second half]
Despite feeling the exhaustion of their physical strength, both teams continued to engage in intense attacks and defenses, and Fukagawa managed to score a winning goal, surpassing the opponent's time.
96 minutes, direct free kick from slightly left of the opponent's central area.
Aizai sends this to Aoki on the right side of the PA, and he heads it back, and Tokiwa, who charged into the goal from his head, successfully pushes it in with a low posture and takes the lead with determination.
I thought we could escape like this until the 100+2 minute mark.
If you give an indirect free kick inside your own penalty area, you will be equalized by a loose ball that is pushed in, and the match will go into a penalty shootout.

【PK Shootout】
The PK shootout, which started with Fukagawa taking the lead, went into sudden death after both teams scored solidly until the 5th player. The 6th player hit the post directly.
Kumakura stops the opponent's sixth person in this pinch and moves on to the seventh person.
However, when the seventh shot was saved by the opposing goalkeeper, Tosu scored with their seventh shot and the game ended.
After a penalty shootout, Fukagawa, who was defeated, finished this tournament as the runner-up.

In addition, FC Tokyo U-15 Fukagawa was selected for the Prince Takamado Fair Play Award, and player 18 Aoki Tomosuke was selected as the tournament's top scorer (9 goals).
