REPORT
Apparently, we have not learned our lesson again.
Away against another promotion contender we lost all the momentum gained in a highly successful break against no less than a French Ligue 1 side.
All the positives and lessons were left on the road to a distant place in the north of Japan.
We were dominated in all stats and figures even if we had managed a fine equalization by new recruit Uno, but the defense had been tinkered with again and could not provide the security expected from a side at the top of J2 League.
Another game thrown away we will have to forget quickly as the less said the better to at least keep positive.
Now we have to games at home if properly dealt with should reestablish us in a more favorable situation.
Starting playing against low Gunma we will have to be clinical and efficient in front of our faithful fans who deserve better!
