○Match Report
【Challenge to the next stage】
The 2nd match of the 18th Tokyo Club Youth U-17 Soccer Championship of the 2016 fiscal year was held under cloudy skies.
"Let's proactively initiate from ourselves." Coach Sato conveyed this to the players and emphasized "restart and start" as he sent the players onto the pitch.
The match with FC Tripletta Youth at the home "Tokyo Gas Musashino-En Multipurpose Ground" kicked off at 14:00.

《First Half》
The match, which started with the opponent's ball, saw Tokyo take an early lead by scoring the first goal.
In just 29 seconds, Kubo, who broke free from his teammate's long pass, calmly sinks it with a loop after seeing the opposing goalkeeper rushing out.
Tokyo continues to take the initiative while effectively utilizing the space behind the opponent's defensive line in a simple manner.
16 minutes, Hara reacts while drifting to the right side with Okaniwa's vertical pass. Although it is taken away by the opponent, Hara immediately recovers it and returns it to Kobayashi (Minoru) for a shot from a deep position.
In the 33rd minute, Kubo created space in the center and passed to Sakaguchi on the left side. However, Kobayashi (Minoru) was unable to hit the target with his free header.
The additional point came at the 40th minute, when Hara returned the ball from deep inside the right side penalty area and Arakawa shook the net with a left-footed volley.
In addition, in the 43rd minute, Sakaguchi cut in from the left side and powerfully swung his right foot to score the third goal.
Leading 3-0 at halftime.

≪Half Time≫
Coach Sato
"Let's try harder. Don't be afraid of making mistakes and don't give the opponent any chances. Make sure to keep them at zero."

《Second half》
Tokyo moved the game from the start, just like in the first half.
In the 46th minute, after connecting passes intricately in the center, Kubo breaks through the defense and scores the fourth goal with a loop.
Tokyo, which is gaining momentum, in the 48th minute, when Kobayashi (Minoru) was brought down in front of the goal, Okaniwa made a quick start while the opponent was creating a wall.
Haru, who received the ball inside the right PA, calmly scored the fifth goal on the far side.
However, Tripletta, who never gives up, also unleashes powerful shots in the 62nd and 65th minutes, but Takase saves the goal with a great save.
Tokyo sends Yoshida, Takahashi, and Nakatani in the 68th minute, and in the 70th minute.
When Yoshida calmly holds the ball in the center of the PA, he carefully checks the position of the GK and scores 6-0.
After that, Tokyo continued to substitute players one after another and advanced with an advantage in physicality and battles for the ball, without showing any weaknesses, until the end of the match.
It became a consecutive victory without conceding a goal in two matches.
