A man named Keigo HIGASHI

Avispa Fukuoka's pre-match training.

Keigo HIGASHI and Kashif BANGNAGANDE collided, causing Higashi to sit down on the spot. Fortunately, there were no serious injuries, but he still seemed to be feeling some pain in his leg.

Afterwards, the accompanying members for the Fukuoka match will be announced. Player Yoshifu looked worried as he checked the member list, and let out a relieved voice, "Thank goodness, Keigo-san made it into the members."

Kaishi Futo, a kind-hearted player. If the player who was injured the day before the game had missed the lineup, he would have been worried.

The staff spoke to such a talented player, Kashiho, saying, "Let's score a goal in the Fukuoka match and go celebrate with Keigo!" Kashiho responded with a strong "I'll do it!"

And then, player Yoshifumi searched for player Higashi and ran to apologize. With a worried expression, player Yoshifumi received advice from player Higashi with a smile, saying "You're putting all your strength into it. Pace yourself!" and they high-fived.



The Fukuoka match has arrived. As player Yoshifumi Kashiwagi executes his words and heads to the goal end in joy, the bench members also rush over. And then, player Azusa Okamoto celebrates Yoshifumi Kashiwagi with a big smile. My heart was warmed by seeing the two of them.




March 21, Injury of East Player Announced
The player said, "It was the first play, so I was embarrassed and sorry, and I couldn't say it right away. If I could secure some time for the substitute player to warm up instead. But I'm really glad we won."


Keigo HIGASHI is running a lot this season.
I keep running and cheering for the team during practice and practice games.

I feel sad when I think that his voice will be gone for a while, but I want you to warmly welcome Keigo HIGASHI, who has returned after a charging period.

No man thinks so much about Tokyo. About his teammates. About the fans and supporters.
