On this day, the match is in the evening, and the morning is for active rest.
After breakfast, everyone went to a local supermarket to shop and each purchased souvenirs.
From there, we heightened our spirits for the match.
Today's opponent is the local Paderborn, which is based here. We will be facing a team currently ranked 10th in the U-19 Bundesliga West.
Right from the start of the match, Terayama shows an aggressive attitude today, taking a shot after a proactive advance.
Yokota draws the ball between the opponent and Kim, while FW Haga and Kubo create attacking rhythm by getting behind the side backs, but they lack awareness for shooting and end the first half without scoring a goal.
During halftime, the players actively communicate with each other to boost morale for the second half.
In the second half, after substituting players, in the 48th minute, Imamura aimed directly for a free kick from 25 meters in front of the goal, and it beautifully cleared the high wall into the goal.
If we score the opening goal at a good time, we will push into the opponent's territory with pressing from the front line and quick transitions.
The additional goal came in the 55th minute, as Yachida passed to Terayama, who sent a pass to Imamura running into space.
Now, Imamura calmly slotted it into the left corner for the second goal.
In the 67th minute, Amano at the back made two brilliant vertical passes to Yachida and Kubo, creating a scoring opportunity, and Kubo slotted it into the left corner to make it 3-0.
Continuing to move the ball at a good tempo, they created chances from wedge passes from the final line while progressing time until the end of the match.
Secured victory in the second match of the Germany expedition.
There were more players with larger physiques than our opponents yesterday, and I experienced playing against foreign players, losing balls that would not be touched in Japan due to the opponent's longer reach.
I want to organize what I was able to do today and what I couldn't, and build on this to prepare for tomorrow's match.
