JEF 2-2 Tokyo Verdy / Sep.23 / #35

JEF displayed better performances than before, but they failed to get 3 points at the rest of the time; about 1 minute. When Yellows took the lead the game 2-1, I thought they got a score at a good time. It was 86 minutes. In my opinion, when a player scores around 85 minutes, the score sometimes can decide the result of the game, a good, a better or the best game. Of course it was a good chance to win the game for JEF, too, but they could not endure Verdy's offenses and could not make the good game with the score. I think it was JEF 's game. They should have felt it more until the end of the game. These days I remember what Rukawa said in the comic series, Slam Dunk. 「一歩も引く気はねえぜ」 Even if there are some difficulties, he just only thinks to win the game. I think there is a lack of that emotion in the team called JEF.
Now they play in the battle of going to J1. It's the battle.

JEF 0-3 Giravanz Kitakyushu / Sep.17 / #34

I didn't think that I watched a football game at the stadium today. Kitakyushu were so good team that they won 4 successive games after beating JEF. My neighbor football team were like a punching bag. Hanato, Yasuda and Ikemoto, who are players of Kitakyushu, often threatened Chiba and other players were also good. They took the ball before JEF players control the game. Probably JEF could not play football for all the time. I think that this was the worst of all so far. Maybe, the worst game which I have ever watched.

After the terrible game, many supporters stayed at Fukuari to want to hear what the manager said, the president said and the team technical director said. Not only the supporters sitting at the side stand but the ones sitting at the back stand and main stand were waiting for the three top persons coming in front of them. At first some workers came and tried to talk with supporters instead of the three persons. But that was not good for us. We wanted to talk with the three top persons face to face. We wanted to hear the voices directly. And then, the top persons appeared and apologized to us for bad performances and losing games, and swore that they never give up to be promoted to J1 again.

I don't think everything would go well definitely even if we had a meeting with Club at the stadium after the game. However it's important to have a conversation face to face. And we can share our dream again and feel it again.

JEF 2-1 Avispa Fukuoka / Sep. 2 / #32

After raining, the moon appeared in the night sky. Today Hyodo and Arata got goals. They didn't seem to be in good condition these days. Hyodo have been playing almost every match but looked tired on the pitch. He sometimes could not kick a ball well. On the other hand Arata could not play competitive games for a long time but appeared on the pitch recently. However the two players who have been struggling their way got their goals in this game! I was very happy to see them. JEF gave Avispa 1 goal but it was Yellows' day, I thought.
They have only 10 games until the end of this season. As a matter of fact it's not enough for them to achieve their goal yet so far. Today I was happy but I hope them to show their excellent performances more and get goals more.
