Albirex Niigata 2vs0 FC Tokyo

J1 Game2
Albirex Niigata 2vs0 FC Tokyo
@Niigata Stadium

Who thought Albirex come back from 6-0 defeat last week but the supporters had believed it.
The orangeblue team show their spirit and bring the well-deserved 2-0 win over the capital team in front of the home fans. They made high tempo game from the start to the end and created the numerous chances.In 65 minute, Terakawa fired opener with the half volley after the keeper deflected the Edmilson's towering header on Yano's cross. Eleven minutes later, Edmison doubles the lead when he snatched ball from FC Tokyo's back line and sloted the ball  into the goal easily. They kept on putting pressure on the oppornents and gave them hardly clear chances afterwards.

Hi,Dan.
I also hope this win boosts the team.
Now the game aginst omiya is very important. they should beat the orange rival.

I think that it will be another unsuccessful away trip to Kanto for Niigata... but Albirex may have a chance, if they can put pressure on the Omiya defence.

They must also defend very well at set plays: the Mighty Squirrels have scored all five of their goals this season from set plays, with Daigo Kobayashi getting one goal and four assists.

Hi orange, you right, the next match is very important, Omiya is one of the orange rivals, -the other is Shimizu-. I think 3 oranges teams is too much for a one League , LOL, the J-League is the only championship in the wolrd with 3 orange teams in the fisrt division.

And Furtho, I hope no more unsuccessful in Kanto, Omiya is a respectable team, but is no a great team.


Sorry for my basic English

Hi ,Furtho. thank you for information on Omiya.
Omiya has better indivisuals. but as a team they still need improvement. (I watched game between Omiya and Fukuoka) so the game will be very close. I think the key is Omiya's playmaker Fujimoto. He always troubled Niigata last season. I really fear him and hope he don't play on Saturday.He didn't play last weekend because of injury(maybe?)

That's right, Orange, Fujimoto was injured against Fukuoka and it looks like he won't play against Niigata either. The key is the relationship on the pitch between Daigo Kobayashi and Saul Martinez (new striker), which so far has been unsuccessful. Niigata's best chance is to try and score early, because Ardija often begin matches very slowly and improve after half-time.

I think most Omiya fans agree that the team have achieved good results with poor performances so far this season. Because of the results in the two Niigata - Omiya games last season, tomorrow's match is a very important one. The management have a target of finishing in seventh place and if we want to achieve that, we must beat Niigata.
