○Match Report
【Challenge to the next stage】
The 15th match of the Prince Takamado Cup U-18 Soccer League 2017 Premier League EAST will be a match against Kyoto Sanga F.C. U-18 away.
In this section, which is the final match of the 3rd cool, the difference between Tokyo, currently in 3rd place, and the top-ranked Shimizu S-Pulse Youth is just 1 point.
We want to do whatever it takes to win and keep up with the top team.
Before the match, there was also information that the top-ranked Shimizu had won against Kashima, who played their match earlier today, which further boosted the players' excitement as the kickoff approached.
【First half】
From the start, Kyoto is steadily moving the ball with the GK and DF line, occasionally attempting to break through Tokyo's defensive network by inserting sharp vertical passes.
Tokyo, on the other hand, calmly responds to the opponent's possession, not allowing them to advance towards the goal, and launches effective counterattacks by winning the ball in the midfield.
After just 23 minutes, right after an accident occurred where Terayama, who had started two consecutive matches, was forced to leave the field due to an opponent's foul, Sugiyama, with sharp anticipation and movement, intercepted the pass from the opponent's defender and dribbled into the vital area.
Yoshida, who ran up behind the DF line, made an exquisite through pass and successfully took the ball with a splendid first touch, carefully observing the GK and piercing the top left corner of the goal to take the lead.
Leading 1-0 at halftime.
【Second half】
As the second half begins, the game progresses at Tokyo's pace.
52 minutes, Kobayashi Hiroshi volleys the cross from Okaniwa who broke through the right side. It was a decisive opportunity, but unfortunately he couldn't find the target.
After that, Yoshida, Sugiyama, and Tanaka continue to take shots but they are unable to score additional points.
66 minutes, Hasedawa, who jumped into the near post from the left corner kick by Shinaida, scores the long-awaited additional goal.
Furthermore, in the 76th minute, Sugiyama dribbles down the right side and cuts inside to Harada in the center. Harada swings his right foot with great force and powerfully drives the ball into the near top corner, widening the lead.
After that, fresh players who came on as substitutes took the lead in preventing the opponent's counterattack, resulting in a 3-0 shutout victory.
We were able to accumulate 3 points and continue to chase without being left behind by the top team, Taku SHIMIZU.
Premier League, which will resume from November 25th after the J Youth Cup.
With 3 games remaining, the team will unite as one and fight with all their might until the end, aiming for the best stage they couldn't reach last year.
Thank you very much for your passionate support to the players today.
