JFL: Urawa Red Diamonds VS Iwata Joy
Competition time: 2024-06-30 17:30 Sunday
Analysis of the team's recent situation:
Urawa Red Diamonds have been in poor form recently, with eight wins, five draws and seven defeats, ranking ninth in the league. Due to the previous four consecutive rounds of league failed to taste the taste of victory, Urawa Red Diamonds' league ranking has also dropped significantly, and in recent times Urawa Red Diamonds' offensive ability is very different from before, this team known for its offensive ability seems to be at a low point, considering that Urawa Red Diamonds often need a long period of adjustment after falling into a trough to be able to return to normal standards, I am afraid that this team will not be able to show too strong league competitiveness in a short period of time.
In the last five games, Urawa Red Diamonds have only achieved one win, two draws and two losses, and the record is obviously not ideal. In the last game, the team defeated Nagoya Whales 1-0 away, ending a two-game losing streak on the road. Judging from the process of the game, the Urawa Red Diamonds had a certain advantage at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, and through continuous offensive, the team also caused the Nagoya Whales defenders to receive red cards and be expelled from the field at the beginning of the second half.
Personally, Urawa Red Diamonds are often able to show a stronger level of competition when they are strong and strong, but this team is often out of shape against weaker opponents, and it is precisely because it is difficult for players to maintain their form for a long time, so Urawa Red Diamonds can not launch a strong enough impact on the league championship trophy, so the next few rounds of successive encounters with the middle and lower reaches of the league, I am afraid that it will be difficult for Urawa Red Diamonds to continue the good form of the last game.
Iwata Joy is a promoted polo team this season, and the current team is ranked 14th in the league with a record of six wins, five draws and nine losses. Although there is still a seven-point gap between Iwata Joy and the relegation zone Shonan Ocean, and the team's defensive stability is more guaranteed in recent times, even Osaka Sakura, a team with strong offensive ability, has not been able to bargain on Iwata Joy, but in fact, there are still a lot of flaws in the depth of Iwata Joy's squad, there are still four or five players in the Iwata Joy injury list at this stage, if the head coach can't get through this difficulty through player rotation in subsequent games, Then the team's relegation prospects are also not optimistic.
In terms of tactics, Iwata Joy is a more common 442 formation, and most JFL teams use this tactical style as the preferred tactic, after all, the 442 formation is not only more protective in the midfield and backfield, but also able to put defensive pressure on the opponent through quick counterattacks. However, due to the frequent injuries of midfielders, Iwata Joy's defensive ability has also been greatly weakened, perhaps when the players are more physical, they can still resist the opponent's continuous offensive, but with the passage of time, the defensive intensity will inevitably decline, so how to maintain defensive stability in the case of limited manpower, this is the big problem that Iwata Joy Coach continues to solve.
Match Analysis:
Urawa Red Diamonds and Iwata Joy have already met once in the league this season, when Urawa Red Diamonds, who were playing away, drew 1-1 with Iwata Joy, obviously facing the opponent's strict defense, Urawa Red Diamonds also failed to find a good way to crack. In the last ten meetings, Urawa Red Diamonds have won five, drawn two and lost three, occupying a certain psychological advantage. Although Iwata Joy's recent record is not bad, and Urawa Red Diamonds' current offensive ability has also declined, but Urawa Red Diamonds have a thicker squad depth than their opponents, and the injury situation in the team is still under control.
Japanese Vocational League: Tosu Sagan VS Kashiwa Sun God
Competition time: 2024-06-30 18:00 Sunday
Analysis of the team's recent situation:
Sagan Tosu is still in a difficult situation at this stage, and the team is currently ranked 17th in the league with a record of five wins, two draws and 12 losses. Due to the poor performance of the players at the beginning of the season, there is now only a one-point point gap between Tosu Sagan and Shonan Marine in the relegation zone, which means that once Tosu Sagan misses a little in the subsequent games, then the team will be squeezed into the relegation zone, and the schedule of Tosu Sagan in the next few rounds of the league is also more difficult, in addition to facing Kashiwa Suns at home in this round, Yokohama Mariner and Niigata Swans are not easy to deal with, it can be said that the slightest negligence of the team may suffer consecutive defeats.
Personally, Tosu Sagan is a team that relies more on the offensive end, although it can also create a lot of defensive pressure on the opponent during the game, but due to the weak defensive ability of the midfield, it is often difficult for this team to compete with stronger opponents, and in recent times, the forward players have a more general foot feeling, and after losing the offensive ability to grab points, it is actually relatively normal for this team to continue to fall in the league rankings, considering that Tosu Sagan is more difficult in the next few rounds of the league, Perhaps in the near future, this team will be squeezed into the relegation zone by their rivals.
Kashiwa Suns' performance this season is quite average, with a record of five wins, eight draws and seven losses at this stage, ranking only fifteenth in the league. Although the overall strength of the Bai Sun God is not weak, and this team is also a team that emphasizes the balance of attack and defense, but due to the poor state of the main players, both offensive and defensive ends have not shown a normal competitive level, so it is difficult for the Bai Sun God to achieve too high a league ranking, but after all, this team is also a more resilient team, I believe that after some adjustments by the head coach, the Bai Sun God should soon be able to regain its league competitiveness.
Match Analysis:
Sagan Tosu played Kashiwa Suns for the first time this season with a 1-1 draw, both sides have a lot of defensive forces in the midfield, too many battles under the two teams have not been able to show too strong offensive ability, even if Kashiwa Suns have a certain lineup advantage, but still not enough to win in a positional battle environment. Although there is a large demand for league points in Tosu Sagan at this stage, this does not mean that Kashiwa Suns will easily give up the opportunity to grab points, on the contrary, Kashiwa Suns are also in urgent need of a victory to regroup, considering that Kashiwa Suns have tried different tactical plays in the previous games, I believe that when facing the sluggish Tosu Sagan in this campaign, the team should be able to rely on stronger overall strength to grab the key three points on Tosu Sagan.
