○Match Report
[Challenge to the Unknown! Go Beyond Your Limits!]
The 19th Tokyo Club Youth U-17 Soccer Championship of the 2018 season, which will be the first match, will be held at the home ground "Fukagawa Grand".
"Instead of focusing on consecutive victories, let's concentrate on each game in front of us. Our unity is our strength. Let's fight together and each of us actively challenge. Set plays will be crucial," said Coach Sato, who encouraged the players.
The match, which was greeted by many fans and supporters, started at 14:00.

<First half>
Tokyo, which entered the opponent's territory from the beginning, threatens the goal from a set play that Coach Sato emphasized as important.
In the 1st and 3rd minutes, we approach the opponent's goal from a corner kick. In the 5th minute, Haga is fouled and earns a free kick, which he himself sends a low ball in front of the goal.
When it becomes a close battle, Imamura pushes through and scores the first goal of the season.
Tokyo, who continued to dominate the game completely, continued to launch a variety of attacks from the center, left, and right sides in order to score additional points, but the goal was far away.
At 10 minutes, Suzuki and Bangnagande on the left side actively made a move, and in the end Suzuki crossed from near the goal line but narrowly missed.
The attack from the right side started in the 24th minute, with Imamura creating an opportunity deep on the right side and passing it back to Kobayashi. He then dribbled vertically and crossed from near the goal line, but it was cleared.
Tokyo, who continued to attack, couldn't find the target as YOKOTA jumped into the cross from BANGNAGANDE in the 26th minute and from MORITA in the 30th minute.
The long-awaited additional point came in the 33rd minute, as Yokota broke free from the DF line's long pass by Takahashi and entered the left PA.
When attracting the opponent's DF and GK, a last pass is made in front of the goal. Haga sends it into the unguarded goal, making it 2-0.
Extend the lead to 2 points and go into halftime

<Half Time>
Coach Sato
"Let's make decisions quickly one by one. Everyone is trying their best, so let's continue. Let's score more points and definitely win."

<Second half>
Tokyo, which made a change by substituting Kubo for Suzuki, continued to dominate the ball throughout the second half.
48 minutes, Imamura breaks free from Kubo's pass and takes a shot while facing the opponent one-on-one, but the opponent's defender blocks it.
At the 55th minute, when there was a chance to score an additional point, Haga was fouled near the right corner kick and earned a free kick which was sent to the far side.
Kimura jumps and heads the ball here, but it narrowly misses the right side of the frame.
59 minutes, Nakatani and Numata are sent to the pitch instead of Yokota and Imamura to change the tempo.
Then, in the 60th minute, Bangnagande makes a big side change to Morita on the right side and connects passes intricately in the center.
In the end, after receiving the ball from Kubo in the center of the goal, Terayama switches and takes a shot, but it is blocked by the defense.
The third goal was scored in the 70th minute, when Kobayashi forcefully broke through the competition with the opponent and calmly shook the net for an additional point.
After that, in the 85th minute, they continued to send out players from the bench one after another.
He entered from the left side and crossed the ball from near the goal line.
Nakatani shoots a decisive shot freely from this loose ball, but it flies straight to the GK and earns a left CK.
The kicker sends a sharp ball to the near side, but it is cleared by the opponent.
There were moments of danger from counters and our own mistakes, but we managed to keep a clean sheet and the game ended.
Started the 2018 season with a 3-0 victory.
