One of the most surprising results of the season came from a late kick off at Fukuda Denshi. FC International were looking to close the gap at the top of the table. On the other hand Zion FC were looking for a much needed victory to boost their survival hopes.
Zion started on the front foot and took the lead after 16 minutes through Yusuke Kawano. Before FC...
As I write this report, the sun is out, the trees are blossoming and the long winter that my team has endured seems a life time ago. That's because King George finally won a game!
After a hard fought 4-3 victory over Nepal Utd on November 25th, KGFC had 7 points after 5 games and were sitting mid table....
When a team is in a poor run of form it's sometimes difficult to know where the next victory is coming from. Just ask West Brom, Arsenal and even King George. Before the weekend BFC Vagabonds were among this not-so-elite group of teams.
The bottom half of Division 3 is very tight with only 5 points separating the bottom 5 teams.
When the Cup Draws are made their are always two teams that you want to avoid. Swiss Kickers as they love a Cup Final and Hibs because they hardly ever lose.
So BFC Tokyo were not best pleased when I matched them with Tokyo Hibernian. However in recent seasons BFC Tokyo have always given Hibs a great match. With two nil nil matches and one defeat in their last...
SUNS FC are sitting pretty on top of Division 2 after 10 games. With only 5 points dropped this season they are looking firm favorites for promotion and to claim the famous TML Div2 trophy.
On Saturday, they faced fellow promotion chasers Barbarians FC. The game was played in a good spirit but Barbarians left themselves exposed as they were playing a high line...
Bayern Munich, PSG, Barcelona, Man City and our very own Tokyo Hibernian all have one thing in common. They could all secure division titles as early as next month.
With FC International and Hibs both way clear of the rest in Division 1, the match between the two teams was always going to be a pivotal part of the season....
With only one win in their opening 6 matches Kanto Celts were finding their 15th TML Campaighn tough. At the start of December it all changed with a 10-0 victory over Imperio FA in the Cup. Since then they have been on an unbeaten run of 5 matches. British Embassy, Panthers & Barbs in the Cup had all tried and failed to beat them.
This weeks FJ TOTW was a hard choice just like the ice that sat on top of three TML venues.
Hachioji Park was worst hit, we lost 3 matches, 1 on Saturday and 2 on Sunday evening. The Redsland complex was closed for the whole weekend. After finally winning Yamoto Koen after a year of trying, ice once again sat on the pitch meaning a 5th match was lost.
So Snow 5 TML 0.
Would like to take this opportunity to thank YC&AC for clearning the snow...
