○Match Report
The 2018 Kanto Youth (U-15) Soccer League Division 1 opened with a direct showdown between FC Tokyo U-15 Fukagawa and Musashi, the first since the 2016 season.
Many fans, supporters, and parents rushed to the game venue, which became Musashi's home game.
The match started with a big cheer from the registered players of both teams at Musashi Kickoff.

<First Half>
From the start, there is a fierce exchange of offense and defense, leading to a speedy development, and Musashi takes the lead.
5 minutes, Miyashita on the right side makes a well-timed long pass to Takahashi who is aiming for the back.
Takahashi competes with Fukagawa DF and firmly controls the half-bound ball, driving it into the net.
The score quickly changed, but both teams were able to embody the soccer they wanted to play.
Both teams try to build up carefully from the DF line, with Fukagawa starting from Oya and Nozawa.
Musashi boldly aims for the space behind Fukagawa's defense with Takahashi and Sakurai.
In defense, both teams quickly switch between offense and defense, launching a coordinated press from the front line to steal the opponent's freedom and execute a high-level development.
As the time for Fukagawa to enter Musashi Jinai is extended, Musashi also dominates the ball and approaches the goal after about 30 minutes, but Musashi leads and turns back in the first half.

<Second Half>
Fukagawa, who wants to catch up with the tie, starts attacking from the beginning.
42 minutes, Shigeki Mochigi receives Suzuki's vertical pass and enters the left PA, but Yamada makes a great save on the shot that connects to Yamazaki with a negative pass.
In addition, in the 47th minute, Nozawa made a cross from deep left PA, but it narrowly missed connecting for a goal.
In the 54th minute, Kajiwara shoots with his left foot from a central breakthrough, but it is saved by Yamada.
In the 57th minute, Musashi's Miyashita lifted the right side and entrusted it to Iwane, who came to support Takahashi. He briefly avoided the Fukagawa defense and aimed with his left foot, but narrowly missed the left side of the frame.
After that, both teams continued to play aggressively without reducing their physical activity, and the additional time was shown as 2 minutes.
The game seemed to be ending as it is, at 80+2 minutes.
Musashi's Kato picks up the fierce battle in the middle, and from near the tip of the Fukagawa team's center circle, he takes a good long shot and it flies over the head of Kashi Island and into the goal.
The final whistle blew immediately after this additional point, and the intense high-level match with frequent changes in offense and defense resulted in Musashi gaining 3 points.

※The match report will be the same for Fukagawa and Musashi.
