REPORT

If you have excellence technique and tough mentality which mean is not you can definitely beat the opponent. This is football. That is why football is attractive. We have already known about this, but if you lost your home game by accident, would it be easily acceptable for you?  Your answer could be “No” I believe.  

In my opinion, Sapporo side threatened S-pulse goal only two times at the last game S-pulse vs Consadole, 20^th Marth.

The first, 22min, a corner kick for Consadole. Sapporo side Fukumori kicked the ball of a fast trajectory to the near side, last game made his debut in orange Jun-Byum Byeon lost the ball from his field of view as the movement of the Sapporo players.
So that the ball hit Byeon’s head, that happen was caused own goal. 0-1.

Second, 34min, the free kick was taken place at 30m behind in front of the S-pulse goal. Fukumori took this free kick, and the ball hit goal post. Mitsunari Musaka reacted earliest this second reaction and tried to away the ball to the outside the pitch. His decision was absolutely right but unfortunately the ball hit GK Nisibe, (he was still lie down on the pitch after his saving) and it toward Consadole FW Tokura, he had to do is just touch the ball then scored. 0-2.

Shimizu lost 2 goals from by accident almost, did not allow Hokkaido side effective penetration in the 90 min period.
We lost this game because of just there is no luck?  Absolutely no.  
There will be anything happen in football like this game, but it will not be excuse.

At the beginning of that game, Shimizu had chance to make opening goal 3times.
First, Genki Omae had chance from his left shot at 3min. Second, middle shot from Kawai 5min, and third Hideki Ishige’s fantastic shoot beyond the top of the GK’s head 12min. In any event, S-pulse could not score.

If Shimizu made a first goal of this season in IAI stadium the game result would be different. The meaning is that opening goal will make Shimizu different future.
It was proved vs Nagasaki 6^th March.

The vice-captain Yohei Nisibe mentioned “When we got back home from two away game s Yamagata and Kumamoto, we have to have confidence for our home game” In this two weeks, the opening goal is the vital for Shimizu to get valid confidence.

S-pulse will achieve season’s first goal and first triumph at IAI stadium Nihondaira against the top of the table at J2, Cerezo Osaka.

Forza S-Pulse!
