[General Comments by the J.League Selection Committee]
Played full time in all three matches held in March. Marked three goals to become the sole leader and greatly contributed to the team's undefeated record. Showed the reason why he is Japan's ace striker with goals in different patterns. Mutoh has both top speed and high technical ability, and he continues to captivate the audience with his anticipation of the next play and his proactive attitude towards scoring goals, living up to the expectations of fans and supporters.
The total distance covered in all 3 matches is 36.51km, which is the best performance in the league as a forward. In addition, the number of sprints is 83, which is the second highest in the league. While contributing to defense, Muto's characteristic speed and momentum are also reflected in the data.
