Well deserved 3 points for Japan

1:0 nippon 1:1 Basti W 2:1 nippon 3:1 nippon (1.hz) 4:1 nippon 5:1 nippon 5:2 Mitch Strong start from both squads. Nippon luckier in the beginning and scoring 2:1 and 3:1 within a few minutes. After halftime again equal chances till injury of one GAS player. Afterwards only nippon playing with a lot possession - GAS with too many losses both in possession and passing. Again nippon scoring their 4th and 5th goal absolutely deserved the win. 5 min before the end only the 5:2 by GAS, but no clear chances created. GAS in the end even lucky not conceiving more goals. Congrats to nippon to a fair and deserved win.

1st victory of the season

First victory of the season FC Nippon’s high pressing game was soon rewarded with a goal in the first 10 minutes by Shoya. German Swiss All-Stars , however, leveled the match immediately after. FC Nippon managed to stay calm and keep the possession using the wide spaces on both sides. FC Nippon sealed the first half with 2 more goals from Yuuki and the last season’s goal machine, Hiroyuki. Each team shuffled around a few players in the second half to threaten the opponent side. Fresh legs and continuous team effort led the team to score 2 more goals from Ryosuke and Ryuto, while conceding only 1 goal. The hectic match finished as 5-2 in the end. Always a tough opponent to play against, we wish German Swiss All-Stars all the best!
