Is there any mention of any "star" players playing for the university teams? Someone to watch for? Otherwise nice round but Sony Sendai - Tsukuba one is a shame
Hiroshima almost got out, while Kobe got out with Kwansei Gakuin University? Fun-fact: they're affiliated with United Church of Christ in Japan. So they're on a mission for God (guess the quote).
Any stream for Cerezo Osaka vs Veertien Kuwana ? Couldn't find..... Edit: Ok, I assume it isn't broadcasted..
Gakuin is not completely the same as University so Gakuin. But yes how on earth could Kobe crush out in that manner.
A lot of starters played for Cerezo today Kim Jin-Hyeon; Fujimoto, Maruhashi, Sakemoto, Yamashita; Ohgihara, Hasegawa, Yamaguchi, Minamino, Ando; Sugimoto
Aria replaced. The reports said he didn't played very well... Cerezo Osaka @crz_english · 18m 68mins: Jumpei Kusukami replaces Ariajasuru Hasegawa for Cerezo Osaka.
Cerezo Osaka 4-2 Veerteen Kuwana after 120 minutes. Goals: '5 Kuota Araki 0-1 '32 Kenyu Sugimoto 1-1 '65 Jiblin 1-2 '75 Takumi Minamino 2-2 '96 Masaki Sakamoto 3-2 '116 Masaki Sakamoto 4-2
