REPORT
A game of blunders… and Shimizu S-Pulse somehow lost it!

Some players are decidedly turning complacent and approximate at the best. 1 out 4 passes went astray and that is just not acceptable for a professional side playing in the top league.

True to say, all players once again gave all their heart until the very last second but that just does not suffice. Some great moves were initiated only to fizzle out with a wayward last cross or pass. Possession was time and again given away too easily through sheer clumsiness or overconfidence. It might time at last to give their chance to young talents at least to prod senior players into a welcome pride and self-esteem.  

The least said about the game, the game as all three goals bordered on the ridicule.On Wednesday the team has a chance to redeem themselves in Yokohama for a late game postponed by a typhoon.

Now, either they win it and start again on the right path, or lose it and find themselves again in last year predicament where they have to fight for survival until the last game!

C’mon, guys!
