The two fine goals brought brilliant victory to Nippon.

The super heading goal by French No.6 broke Take's goal at 10min in the 1st half.
Nippon created several chances but Yasu couldn't get the goal. The worse pitch condition
in the front of goal mouth also helped Gaulois. Gaulois GK played very well too.

In the 2nd half, Nippon substitute Zico-Ike for Koma and lined up three attackers.
Ike contributed as post-man but Nippon couldn't approached to French goal.

Nippon's players wasted enery and lost ball possession. The goal was getting far away
from Nippon.  

In 30min in 2nd half, at last, Nishi's fighting spirit, that it was his last match in Singapore, revived Nippon's eleven.
Nishi broke French defence and kicked ball into the French goal. His great chasing and goals were never
forgot in Nippon players

5mins later, the 40m long-range-shooting by Zico-Ike's right leg stick into French goal.
That's really fantastic goal.
 
2-1 !!

Toward the match end, the French's attacking couldn't reach to the goal because Take
were there.
