REPORT

A good chance to insure qualifying for the next stage missed!

The game started well enough with Murata pouncing on the ball in the very first minute and hopes were high but Kofu fought back and the first half ended on the same score.

The second half began with a nightmare with Kakuda scoring against his own side in the 50th minute and goalkeeper Nishibe saving his side. The last quarter of the game saw S-Pulse throwing everything in an all-out assault of the Kofu’s goal but to no avail.

Jubilo having lost at home against non-contenders Consadole Sapporo, the Group B is completely open and could end in any fashion even with an improbable qualification for Consadole!

The next two games will be contested away and that will show if S-Pulse has the steel and will to progress further!

For the moment it is back to the J1 League with a home game against FC Tokyo.And that also will prove the value of S-Pulse
