I downloaded it. Anyway, tomorrow Sanfrecce will start their adventure in FIFA Club World Cup. Call me a fool, but i don't see a super-team in any of those teams which are gonna partecipate. So, Auckland City is the first obstacle.
I'm not too confident... Kashima did what I expected last year, I hope they beat Al-Ahly though. Of course I'm counting the first match as a given.
first game venue in nagoya stadium ? or tokyo ? sato will score double. i believe so . 3-0 to sanfrecce hiroshima. its my predict for the game.
"It was a good result and a good performance against a professional team very similar to Sanfrecce Hiroshima," - Ramon Tribulietx, Auckland manager, after beating Matsumoto Yamaga 2-0 I hope he was talking only about the tactical similarities between the two teams.
First game in Yokohama, at Nissan Stadium. Auckland has Takuya Iwata, ex-Gifu defender. I think he is a left-back, but not sure about it.
thank you mate. is this some kind of scout of auckland did in japan ?, or player himself went to the auckland city for a trial,and then they liked and signed ?. which_ever, its gonna be intersthing match up vs sanfrecce hiroshima offensive players . and local fans reactions. probably and hopefuly a positive way reactions. sato is the luck name for this match up,for me he will gonna score double .
nobody is watching the match? I'm at work... I didn't know that Auckland had Takuya Iwata as defender (He was a defender in Gifu right? )
taking a watch now at halftime during lunch break... 0-0 and looks like Sanfrecce had something like 9786959 shots on goal saved by the Auckland keeper
hehe of course.. but i think they were bit unlucky today with the post an the crossbar next will be al ahly.. on a good day they can beat them an then semifinals against corinthians
random: I heard this was the first official match with the new goal line technology? Hawk's Eye? (the same as the tennis one I think?)
glad to see a goal of beauty from opening game and from sanfrecce hiroshima. the opposite golie were in his good day..he saved good chances... but, themost interesthing and remarkable scene were to me,beside game winner goal, the corner kick hit the bar. that was pure class. who were the kicker? nme pls. thanks.
Fifa is testing two systems at the CWC. Hawk eye is one of them. Fifa has restrictions on maximum size of the sponsor logo. Anyway, good start by Sanfrecce. Should be an interesting match against Al Ahly. Also discussing it on the fifa forum and any Japanese insight is appreciated.
