Today is the Semifinal Round of the Evergrande Cup.
Players who strongly hold the pride of FC Tokyo in their hearts, following yesterday's match against Hangzhou Green City.
Although there was some tension, we have started to have a confident and responsible look that says "We are FC Tokyo" emotionally.

The pitch is in the same location as the previous day. It cannot be said that it is in a good pitch condition.
The ball does not roll properly, and if it becomes a morning game, the pitch, which is wet with morning dew, will be slippery in some places.
However, by the fifth day of the tournament, the players were able to focus solely on the game without any worries.

Attacking Sydney's goal from a game that doesn't feel the pitch conditions.
20 minutes, Taniguchi, who received the ball on the left side, runs up the side with his favorite dribble and puts a sharp cross to Miyata who was inside.
Miyata firmly volleys this and takes the lead point.

At 36 minutes, Yokota, who received the ball in the midfield, dribbled and cut into the center of the opponent's defense, and passed it through to Miyata who was running behind the defenders.
