    Mt. Fuji and cherry blossom:


    But, as it's in Shizuoka prefecture, Yamanashi might be angry, I don't know.:p

    During the covid lockdowns here in the UK I spent a lot of time watching railway journeys from all over Japan. One I remember (Moka Railway, Tochigi Prefecture) had a lot of cherry blossom trees along the line. There were a lot of people out waiting for a old steam train running the opposite direction.

    36:00 to 37:30 cherry blossom
    56:30 for the steam train passing

    Itamura (6 goals, 4 assists) is one goal away from the league top scorer position.
    Her Feyenoord is currently 2nd in the table (36p), one point behind Twente (37p) with PSV Eindhoven (35p) at 3rd but with one less match played.

    You could also add to the Asian Cup game.

    5. The minute of the first goal scored. That's got to be worth a few points.

    The best logo I've come across from Japan was when researching the very early rounds of the Empress' Cup a couple of years ago.

    A school team called... 'Hida Takayama Girls FC Dream' ...... It's just so... kawaii

    [​IMG]

    Unfortunately they've now changed their name to... 'Hida AG FC Dream' and the logo too.

    The Australians are living on the edge right now. Their collective defense must be more proactive.

    AUS go through with probably not the most convincing win AUS fans have ever seen imo but a win is a win

    Football is an interesting game. I doesn't matter if you've been outplayed, dominated or even outclassed. The only thing that matters, is who managed to put the ball inside the goal more times. That's why best strikers cost hundreds millions of dollars.
