Match Report
The 2nd round, which is the second consecutive match, kicked off at 13:20 at K's denki Stadium Mito, just like yesterday.
Yesterday, we were able to take a big lead and win, but we want to tighten our spirits and fight again.
【First Half】
Both teams start by using simple long balls, competing for dominance.
Among them, Fukagawa gradually increased their possession rate, but the defense in the midfield of Avispa was strong and they were not able to enter the PA area easily.
Still, at the 12th minute, Captain Tokiwa received the ball in the center and dribbled it out, taking a mid-range shot.
When they break out of the frame, Aoki and Nozawa effectively break through the space behind the opposing DF and start creating chances.
At 19 minutes, Yasuaki, who received the ball on the right side, swung his left foot from a dribble, but the DF blocked it.
The persistent attack bore fruit in the 34th minute, when Yasuaki received a vertical pass from Sakuma in the center and shook off the opposing DF with a combination with Aoki, then took a shot.
Yuzawa scores the opening goal by pushing in the ball that the opponent GK had deflected.
After that, the DF maintained a high level of concentration and prevented the opponent from creating scoring opportunities, leading the game 1-0 at halftime.
【Second Half】
Fukagawa, who aggressively attacked from the start, threatened the opponent's goal with Nozawa in the 42nd and 53rd minutes.
In the 56th minute, Anzai broke through deep into the opponent's territory and passed to Aoki, who then took a shot that was saved by the opponent's GK.
He reacted to this shot, but was unable to score an additional point as the opposing DF threw himself in the way and blocked it.
Aoki reacts to Azai's loose ball shot at 59 minutes, but it hits the top of the bar.
Unable to make a decisive opportunity, the game becomes difficult and Avispa raises their ball possession rate, leading to a dangerous situation in the 66th minute.
If you give a FK near your own PA, a high-precision cross will come in and GK Kumagura will boldly clear it with a punch.
Reacting without giving the opponent any chance on this second ball, and not allowing them to score.
After overcoming the pinch, the ball hit the hand of the opposing DF who responded within the PA, resulting in a PK being awarded.
However, we were unable to score an additional point as the opponent's GK blocked this PK.
The game heated up even more from here, and in the 70th minute, Aoki controlled the opponent's DF's clear ball with his chest in the chaos in front of the opponent's goal, and swung his left foot to score the long-awaited additional point.
In the 74th minute, Aoki dribbled past the defense and passed to Yasuzaki, who was left open in front of the goal, and he scored to make it 3-0.
The defense also maintained their concentration until the end and kept a clean sheet until the end of the game.
The game was a challenge, with back-to-back matches and coming off a win the day before, but we were able to secure the victory without giving any openings.
In order to advance in the single-elimination tournament, I want to continue to strengthen myself and fight with all my might in each and every match until the next game.
