Match Report
The 2017 Kanto Youth (U-15) Football League Division 1, which started in March, will finally reach its final round today.
Fukagawa is currently in second place and has a chance to win the championship if they can earn 3 points, although it will depend on other teams' performance.
The venue was held at Away Reds Land.
【First Half】
Fukagawa was the one who pushed into the opponent's court at the start.
Sasanuma looked forward and passed a through ball to Sato, but it was blocked by the opposing DF.
In the following 5 minutes, Tokiwai aims for a middle shot with his left foot, but it is caught by the opposing GK.
Then Urawa also starts to counterattack.
The left side was broken through in the 8th minute and the ball was crossed to the center, but a miss helped to avoid a volley shot.
After that, both teams will quickly aim for the opponent's goal without wasting time, resulting in a fast-paced game with frequent changes in offense and defense.
18 minutes, Sugawara who broke through the left side raised a sharp cross, Sato who jumped in shook the goal net, but unfortunately it was judged offside.
In the 19th minute, Nozawa, who broke through with Sasanuma's through pass, had a big chance but missed the frame.
24 minutes, midfielder Kajiwara boldly advances into the opponent's penalty area and takes a shot with his left foot, but it is saved by the GK.
The game could have gone either way with a goal at any moment, but both teams held their ground and the first half ended in a 0-0 tie.
【Second half】
The game starts moving at the beginning.
44 minutes, we gave away a direct free kick in front of our own penalty area and conceded the first goal.
Fukagawa, who will lose the possibility of winning if they do not win, equalizes with a header from Tokiwa from a corner kick in the 49th minute.
Fukagawa, who wanted to score more points, was caught in a pinch by the opposing attackers' driving force.
In the 58th and 61st minutes, the opponent was allowed to advance, but Kimura and Shin bravely blocked the shots with their bodies.
In the 62nd minute, the opponent created a scoring opportunity from a corner kick, but Kumakura made a fine save.
Both sides continued to attack in pursuit of 3 points, but were unable to score.
In additional time, the ball was connected to Honma, who made his first appearance in the league on this day, in the penalty area, but was blocked by the opposing DF.
The game will end in a 1-1 draw, securing second place.
Unfortunately, we fell just one step short of winning the championship, but we were able to steadily accumulate points from the middle of the league and secure a spot in the Emperor's Cup.
I want each individual to grow even more and challenge the final tournament in a more competitive environment than ever before in the remaining two months.
We are extremely grateful to all of our supporters who have come to the venue throughout the year and fought with us on this day, even in the pouring rain.
