Nippon VS Swiss
Nippon 1-3 Swiss @AR-JAS
Recently, the pitch in AR-JAS is horribly wet, apartly lookes LAKE..... But, it is much better today until last 10min heavy shower. Swiss is very fair play team. No dangerous tackle, no yellow card.
This is the first match for Tai after knee injury. His energetic peformance creates several shoot chances in the first half, but can't break Swiss' goal. Yasu, Masa....missing. Then, from the corner-kick in 30min, our goal is broken open by Swiss' No.5. That's same as last few games, so the "worst scenario".
The youngest GK Sakaki(20 years old) is very fresh, stops the ball in the very very bad pitch condition, it is fantastic. But next two goals are Swiss'. Swiss' great side attacking knocks out Nippon.
In the last 15min, Nippon plays more aggressively, Yuki kicks the ball into the goal finally. But it's over. It starts heavy shower in the last10min, grass field becomes lake, Nippon is sinking into the water pitch.
Our tasks are very clear,
1. Keep moving => Keep fisical condition
2. the first goal in the match
Nippon will rest next weekend. The match against Casuals on 5th Dec will be last game for Yuki. Keep moving ! First Goal !
Gambare Nippon !!
