I wonder if Popovic will take Hasegawa with him to Zaragoza, just like he brought him to Cerezo. Anyone?
The new season already started since two week. To me, Tamada is the most vital player in both game , In the first game, HE won the free kick, and Forlan top class shot become important an away game draw goal in the season open. Second week, Tamada solo shows were the joy to watch. His first goal vs Omiya were great first touch ,nice ball reading, and at the same time he escape from the offside trap , he receive the ball and immedetly shot and yeah,..goal…. his second goal were by free kick. He ones again won the free kick foul, and take the ball from cacao's hand, and made a huge huge great free kick long range beauty goal…the goal celebration were nice too. Cacau went and nicely congrats Tamada's beauty kick. it was nice scene… by the way, I liked the selfish and self trust and concentration of Tamada in this game aspecialy in the winning free kick goal minute…. at the same game, Ogihara's goal vs Omiya were EPIC!. Tsubasa type goal.wow wow wow. overall; This week Cerezo showed very good react in the journey to the J League planet. One thing I would like to add at the end; The Cerezo coach gets important credit from me. He did a very good/vital decision to sub in Cacau before the second half start. This makes the game chanced at upfront and wings. Cerezo looked more comfort with the bal in the 3 top(cacao at the right wing). Tamada,Forlan,Cacau were lively and caused dangers in differ moments. ps: Every football fans must watch Ogihara's beauty goal. This is beauty of the Football Sport. Congrats Cerezo in their victory . Final score; Cerezo:Omiya: 3-1 another Vital point of the game were; First Goal build up. It was pure class combinations from the Cerezo'S CB to long pass to the left wing Maruhashi_he received the ball nicely and than quick pass to Sekuguchi, and He than make same thing as a quick pass to Tamada,.. the rest is top class receive,handle,vision,and cold finishing. Forlan's reactions were very positive for his teammates in every scene. He motivate and support his teammates in the ear decision,whether selfish shot or bad pass etc,. he were the first person to support and push as a motivate his teammate to push keep continue way. <>Thats the real captain and leadership vision. I thing ,the trio of Tamada,Forlan,Cacau and Marhuashi,Sekuguchi combinations very lively and positive at the offensive end build ups etc. The coach must keep continue in this trend till the end of the season. Currently it seems work nicely and positively to the score lines and shots and positions numbers. Up next Cerezo will play vs Faguano Okayama,its gonna be epic match up for sure. home team currently sit at the 2.position …Cerezo currently at 4.position. To me, its a game of the week in J2 alongside Kanazawa vs Yokohama FC…. Regards,
Not bad, but a big step back from the awesome Mizuno-shirts they've had before. The 2013-version is my personal favorite, but the other editions are nice too.
Just going to leave this here - an interview with Maruoka about his time in Dortmund. http://headlines.yahoo.co.jp/hl?a=20160114-01611371-gekisaka-socc
The squad looks very good at the moment I think. Kakitani, Maruoka, Kiyohara, Matsuda, Yamamura all look like good signings. And the 3 Brazilians will almost guarantee to be a step up compared the 3 that left. If they don't get promoted this season they could be in trouble maybe.
- It seems like you adapted to the life in Germany, but who was better with German? You or Kagawa? - Without a doubt I'm better. Shinji always speaks English when he's with the team. Once when I was training with the first team he started to talk to me in English. I replied in German 'Please speak in German' and he said 'Oh, you speak German! I forgot.' Pretty cool interview (especially part about Kagawa) and it seems like this boy has got good head for professional football. Wish him all the best and NT shirt someday. He's more mature than Kakitani being 6 years younger
Cerezo Osaka striker Kenyu Sugimoto seems to ignore his teammate Yoichiro Kakitani.. https://t.co/QAQCcoJHdg— yosuke (@maimaidenden) November 6, 2018
Sugimoto ignoring Kakitani when the players were doing a usual high-five, while Kakitani looked at Sugimoto miserably (almost in tears).
Damn, that looked bad. As mentioned, there's been talks about Kakitani struggling with depression lately and if this is how Sugimoto welcomes him back to the team I hope Sugimoto never get to wear that pink jersey ever again. But with that being said, there might be a lot more to this story than we know so perhaps we shouldn't be too quick to judge.. But this video aside, Sugimoto is an idiot that have always put himself way above the team and I really hope Cerezo offload him to another team next season. He's not that good anyway, and I believe his performances this season is more on line with his true qualities than that was the case last year. Kakitani was a selfish troublemaker as well when he was younger, but he's taken huge steps since then.
