Good news, I have rebooted the automatic thread generator, and it's created a new topic that is 50% likelier to get any replies Saki Kumagai • 熊谷 紗希 • World-Class Goal Machine* (*that part isn't in the real title) www.bigsoccer.com/threads/saki-kumagai-%E2%80%A2-%E7%86%8A%E8%B0%B7-%E7%B4%97%E5%B8%8C.2112721/
Tomorrow's games: Empress's Cup first round: Japan Soccer College vs Jumonji Ventus 13:30 Ange Violet vs FC Imabari Ladies 13:30 (JFA TV) Seiwa Gakuen High School vs Anclas 13:30 Diosa Izumo vs Ohsaka Gakugei High School 10:30 Sakuyo High School vs Lira Consadole Sapporo 10:30 Speranza vs Kamimura Gakuen High School 10:30 (JFA TV) Nittaidai vs Niigata 13:30 Kanagawa University vs Fujieda Junshin High School 10:30
Surprised of the skills on show considering it seemed they were playing in a howling gale.Good game (Couldn't stay awake for the second game though)
For records, I checked my file from last year and apparently Maya Hijikata, who scored a hat-trick today, had already scored a goal for Menina in last year's edition of Empress' Cup. INAC Kobe Leonessa will take Norddea Hokkaido in the next round. Talking about that, on the English version of the JFA website I found this interesting double interview (that will surely be appreciated by @KAPIJXM ) with Hannah Stambaugh and Ayumi Kaihori!
Actually this is the second part of the double interview, so double the better for me I love how Kaihori is Hannah's idol and how she praised her as a GK, it could be me And I like to know the future of my beloved GK now that she is retired, if she is as half good as a GK she will achieve many things. Now I will have to give an eye more for Stambaugh, she has a very good teacher and can achieve more than Kaihori's did.
Today's result: Empress's Cup first round Japan Soccer College 0-1 Jumonji (Matayoshi) Ange Violet (Matsuyama) 1-2 FC Imabari (Inoue, Asaumi) Seiwa Gakuen High School 0-1 Anclas (Kato) Diosa Izumo (Tachibana 2) 2-1 Ohsaka Gakuei High School (Yoshio) Sakuyo High School (Ise, Ezaki 2, Ihara) 4-0 Lira Consadole Sapporo Speranza (Morisako) 1-0 Kamimura Gakuen High School Nittaidai (Mehara, Shimada 2, Watanabe, Mouri, Taniguchi) 6-0 Niigata Kanagawa University (Hirai, Ikeguchi) 2-0 Fujieda Junshin High School
Oh, wow, I had totally missed part 1 of the interview! And it was probably the most interesting part, now that I read it. Thanks for pointing it out to me!
I didn't know FC Imabari has its Ladies team. Its male team is famous in a sense, because Japan male NT's legendary coach Okada Takeshi set it up for Japan football future. The most impressive player in this game was Kawasaki Saya, Ange's 28, but I hear she moves to Innsbruck.
Wow, I had never heard of this Imabari team, but they managed to eliminate Ange Violet Hiroshima, the winners of Challenge League West Division! I wonder if they're somehow special or if is it just Hiroshima that are very weary at the end of the season (they also lost the last match of the league). Sad for Fujieda: I don't know much about them right now, but in the past they had many good players that I liked, so I would have liked to see them advance.
Oh, I was writing my post, while you were posting yours, so it looks like we were both impressed by Imabari's upset! Well, Saya Kawasaki scored tons of goals in the last seasons, so it makes sense that she tries something new overseas to furtherly improve her game. Austrian league has been quite good for Japanese players in the past. She is a former Tokiwagi's player, isn't she?
By the way, I noticed that FC Imabari Ladies has been paired with Yamato Sylphid for next round: of course, a strong opponent for them, but anyway less "impossible" than a Division 1 team or a top Division 2 team would have been.
She already was there for one year (well, until the Bundesliga was cancelled due to Corona anyway) and came back to Ange. Looks like the coach there is no longer Masaki Morass, the Wacker Innsbruck players we talked about in the past, Fujisawa Marin and Tomari Shiho, are gone too. Edit: Looks like Morass already left in 2019 and was assistant at Vissel Kobel for a season.

My list is in descending order from best to worst. I tried to pick goals where the player's skill and vision were the reasons the goal was scored as opposed to bad keeping. I hope this is how you wanted it Lechus7. Although Takahashi and Otaki's goals are brilliant I still think Saihara's goal is easily the best of the season. She knew what she was going to do long before she did it. She fakes out Takarada and then lobs the keeper. It is an extraordinary bit of skill. She can come and play for Nojima if she wants. ## Mizuki Saihara (Ehime FC Ladies) JJ Hana Takahashi (Urawa Red Diamonds) $$ Ami Otaki (JEF Utd.)
