After 8 more minutes, Watanabe Kohei's interception led to Sudou's shot, which was saved by the GK.
In the following 9 minutes, Toshima Kurihara made a sharp start to steal the ball, passed it to Sudou, and the powerful shot was punched away by the GK.
After that, Musashi took control with intense pressing from the front line, launching a variety of attacks including set plays, but despite the opponent's GK making good saves, they were unable to score.
The defense remained focused, and in the 32nd minute, a through pass was sent behind the defenders, but Natsui Watanabe covered and prevented the chance from developing.
In the latter part of the first half, Musashi approached the goal with a set piece. In the 38th minute, Furuya took a corner kick from the left and attempted a volley shot at the far side, but it hit the defender and unfortunately went just to the right of the goal.
This right corner kick flows to the far side once, but after retrieving the ball and sending it back to the far side, Shota Kurihara connects, but it is blocked by the opposing defender.
In the 40th minute, Natsui Watanabe aimed directly at the free kick obtained in the opponent's half, but the wall blocked it. Natsui Watanabe picked up the loose ball and sent a cross to the far side with his right foot.
Smoke Mountain, who was free here, takes a shot but is saved by the GK.
Although many decisive moments were created, the opponent's GK made good saves, and the first half ended 0-0 without scoring.

【Second Half】
Even in the second half, Musashi takes control with intense defense and side attacks from the start, and Kurihara scores the opening goal.
In the 44th minute, Sudou, who had been creating chances repeatedly, drifted to the left side, received a pass, dribbled past the defender, and cut in along the goal line to deliver a negative cross.
Kuriwara Shota connects in the center to score the opening goal.
The match will become even more intense from here.
Immediately after taking the lead, we allowed the opponent to create a chance, but we continued to press towards the opponent's goal, yet the goal seemed distant.
Then, in the 59th minute, Musashi, who began to be pushed back by Chiba's power play after a system change, conceded a goal from a counterattack.
In the 66th minute, a cross was delivered from the left side, and after being held by the opposing FW in the center of the penalty area, a foul was committed resulting in a penalty kick.

In the 72nd minute, Musashi launched a counterattack, and Kobayashi headed the corner kick, but it went over the bar.
In the 74th minute, Watanabe Kohei's cross from the right side was shot by Sudou, hitting the opponent's DF and earning a corner kick.
After this corner kick is cleared at the near post, the ball flows to the far side where Furuya strikes it in to equalize.
After that, Chiba simply brought the ball into the goal area to seize the winning goal, but the two center-backs, Furuya and Omori, along with Kobayashi and the substitute Tanimura, firmly cleared it and defended the goal.
It seemed like it would end just like this, in the 80+2 minutes of additional time.
Natsui Watanabe, who received the pass on the left side, sent it to the center where Fuma Watanabe made a tricky pass to Sudou, catching the opponent off guard.
Sudou dribbled past the defender and found himself one-on-one with the GK, calmly assessing the opponent's GK's movement before slotting the ball into the goal for a last-minute winning goal.
Chiba continued to push towards the goal without giving up until the end, but we defended firmly around Momoi and secured a comeback victory at the end, achieving three consecutive wins following the previous match.
