【Challenge to the next stage】
The 18th Tokyo Club Youth U-17 Soccer Championship of the 2017 season, which will be the first match of the season, will be held at home at the "Tokyo Gas Musashino-En Multipurpose Ground" against FC Suginami Youth.
Coach Sato encouraged the players by saying, "We can't become the best in Japan unless we become the best in Tokyo. Let's play a game where each individual can challenge themselves!" as they approached this tournament as the previous year's champions.
The game started at Suginami's kickoff amidst a mix of warm sunshine and chilly wind.

Half Time
Coach Sato
"It's not easy to score. It's natural that things don't go as planned. Let's come up with ideas and show our quality in the midst of that."

《Second half》
When YOKOYAMA and IMAMURA are substituted in at halftime, these two accelerate the attack.
At the 50-second mark, Okaniwa on the right side runs vertically and connects to Yokoyama, advancing to the goal line. However, the shot to Imamura on the near side misses the frame.
Tokyo, attacking the right side, entered the right PA with a dribble at 50 minutes, and Yokoyama floated a ball to Imamura near the goal. From a difficult position, he jumped with his right foot and shook the net with a volley.
In addition, at the 55th minute, Kubo dribbles in the center and the ball is dropped. Arakawa picks up this loose ball and scores the fourth goal from outside the penalty area with his right foot.
After that, Tokyo changed their attack by replacing players one after another, and in the 69th minute, Yoshida received the ball inside the penalty area and scored a reverse shot while carrying the opponent on his back.
Two minutes later, Yoshida received a pass from Okaniwa inside the PA, evaded the opposing DF and struck a powerful shot with his right foot, scoring the 6th goal.
Tokyo, who did not let up their attack, dropped a middle pass from Okanote to Haga, who had run into the center after being the starting point behind the opponent's DF line, in the 76th minute, but his right-footed direct shot went over the frame.
The 7th goal was scored in the 87th minute, when Okanohara passed to Yokoyama on the right side, and Yoshida received the ball in the penalty area, dribbled to the right, and scored a hat-trick with a right-footed direct shot to the far side.
Tokyo continued to dominate the game without reducing their physical activity until the end, winning their first match of the tournament and the first match of the 2017 season with a score of 7-0.
