Zion went into their fixture on Saturday knowing that 3 points would confirm their promotion to Division 1.
The opposition Dutch FC have been on fine form since the turn of the New Year. So it would be no easy game for Zion. When the pressure is on, teams can either thrive on it or get nervous and struggle to express themselves. Zion on their big day were able to pass the ball around well but the Dutch keeper was having the game of his life.
Footy Japan and Centre Circle NPO is pleased to announce that the total raised from our Football Charity Day was ¥365,148. All the money will go directly to Refugees International Japan.
With 3 TML weekends left before the season finishes, half the awards have already been decided. The biggest battle of them all is race to win the free pair of Adidas Football Boots. With the Golden Boot winners virtually decided in Divisions 1 & 2, the race for the winner in Division 3 is between 5 players.
The busiest day of the Footy Japan season came and went without incident. The 3rd Edition of hosting the 2 tournaments in one day was a great success. The youngest competitors were aged 5 and the eldest were in their 50's. They played for the love of the game but also helped raise money for Refugees International Japan.
With the season slowly drawing to a close the battle for top spot in Division 1 is hotting up. Current leaders Tokyo Hibernian would have been hoping for slip ups from either FC International or Panthers FC.
With only 3 matches played on matchday 34 it was an easy choice to make. The Golden Week TOTW goes to Real Celts. The 5-2 victory over Oakwood Clash puts them 6 points clear at the top of Division 3.
