【First Half】
The final stage of a soccer-specific stadium with over 10,000 spectators continues for consecutive days. We kicked off in the best environment.
The start of the game will be a battle for possession between both teams. In the 8th minute, the opposing team broke through the center after attacking from the side, creating a 1-on-1 situation with the goalkeeper. They took advantage of a momentary lapse and scored a goal. In the 18th minute, they scored again with a powerful shot, ending the first half with a score of 0-2.
【Second Half】
In the second half, we will try to create good opportunities to hold the ball, but the game continues without being able to reach the goal. In the midst of that, Maki KITAHARA tries to shoot by inviting the opponent's mistake, but unfortunately it goes outside the frame. The game will continue with a back and forth. As Tokyo gradually consumes energy and falls behind in reaction, the opponent's output does not decrease at all. They concede a goal from a loose ball in front of the goal, and then another goal from a breakaway, resulting in a 0-4 loss.
Power and speed that you don't feel in your daily life through the game. We didn't lose everything, including the battle for the ball, but unfortunately we ended up with a disappointing result of 0-4.
And the day after the tournament ends, we will return home.
The classrooms that were used as dormitories will also be returned to their original state, and preparations for returning home will be made.
After a long journey from Sweden, I safely returned to Japan.
This tournament is granted to the participating players through the achievements of their senior colleagues who have been active as professionals.
I believe that with this environment and content, we will be able to take action with energy and believe in our future starting tomorrow, for the sake of our seniors and future juniors, and for the sake of the club. Thank you to our seniors.
Thank you for your support in various aspects.
Thank you for your continued support of Tokyo's academy players!!
