Official 2022 Nadeshiko Japan Thread [R] - なでしこジャパン（英語スレッド）

This one was so important to me.

I had the honor of speaking with @NahoKawasumi_9 on playing in the #NWSL, the importance of @GothamFC honoring AAPI month, her iconic Challenge Cup goal, and the growth of women's soccer both here and back in Japan.

Tomorrow's games:

Nadeshiko League
Ange Violet vs Nittaidai 13:00
Ehime vs Setagaya 14:00

Nadeshiko League 2
Tsukuba vs JFA 14:00

 

I understand where you are coming from and I can see why the red card was given, but I believe that the ref was conned by Chiba and that is where my frustration/anger is coming from. Not the referee, but Chiba.

I want to stress that Kishi definitely made contact with Chiba's leg, but in no way was it enough to make Chiba fall the way she did. Chiba dived to make it look much worse than the contact actually was, which means Kishi should not be sent off in my opinion. Also contact is allowed.

After the initial contact Chiba took two more steps before "falling down". When contact is made on her leg she is at least one metre outside the penalty box, yet somehow she manages to end up two metres inside the penalty box.

If you are genuinely tripped you fall down immediately, because you lose your balance not two steps after the contact. It reminded me of the Americans against Spain in the last world cup.

But having said all that I can see why the ref gave the red card and I am just more disappointed with Chiba

This is what happens when somebody is genuinely tripped by a player. The play starts from around 20 seconds.

She’s been suffering from loose bodies in her ankle joints for a while now (since or even before her season at INAC). This was the reason she wasn’t fit during the Olympics.
Though I didn’t know it was both her ankles. I’m glad she chose to go through with the surgery this offseason. This probably means she won’t play for the NT this summer though.

Moeka Minami will be playing in Europe next season. She’s already signed a contract with her next club.

 

H.T......Ehime 0 Setagaya 1
Goalkeeper tried her hardest to give the visitors a one goal advantage at 6 mins but Setagaya were not able to take advantage.They did go a goal up at 22 mins with a headed goal from a CK from Kaneko.Game has been played in the Ehime half with CK after CK.Setagaya seem determined to go into next weeks top of the table clash with Iga at least 2 points ahead of them and so far nothing Ehime has done will prevent this.

Surprise me Ehime!

 

F.T.....Ehime 0 Setagaya 1

The only surprise is that the score remained at 0-1 and not because of Ehime's solid defence.More of the same in the 2nd half the only difference being that the home side created one scoring chance at 57 min which pulled a good save from Setagaya goalkeeper.It's very sad watching Ehime trying to play it out from the back and losing the ball time after time after time and not changing anything.Coach.....please learn and change.
Iga will hardly be quaking in their boots after watching Setagayas performance against lowly Ehime (yes..I think it's time to start refering to them as lowly Ehime)

Things can only get better.

 

Today's result:

Nadeshiko League
Ange Violet 0-1 Nittaidai (Kaneko)
Ehime 0-1 Setagaya (Kaneko)

Nadeshiko League 2
Tsukuba (Okidoi) 1-0 JFA

DAZN You Tube Japan free game......Urawa v Beleza

 

I feel she may be converted to defensive mid.

 

It's only a guess but I'd like to see her play in BundesLiga's UWCL bound club

 

I don't know it, but I don't think they are related. If they are Tanaka, you would not be surprised so much. Kaneko is not so popular but nor rare.
By the way, I know you like this kind, so I omitted their first names on purpose.

About Nittaidai, I have known some shocking truth today.
Sekiguchi Mai (really hopeful CB, in fact I liked her play very much and I was really concerned about her absence last year) was diagnosed as having fatal heart disease.

Last year, they were really strong as being able to aiming at the title, but lots of accidents attacked them, adding to the Sekiguchi's absence.
First, Mouri Miyu (U18 candidate) was injured. Second, captain Lee was heavily injured. Third, Watanabe Mai (U20 candidate) was injured.

Watanabe Mai seems to have come back this year at last.

 

Sekiguchi's note:

So young for such a live changing diagnosis

H.T......Reds 0 Beleza 0

Good game..highlight...Yamamto's ability to seemingly go past any of the Reds at will.

Edit...46 mins ...Reds 0 Beleza 1....Fujino...all her own work...nice
