Match Report

With their advancement into the final round of the AFC Women's Futsal Championship at stake, Japan Women's Futsal National Team squared off with Bahrain Women’s Futsal National Team at Bangkok Arena on Saturday 5 May.

Japan took the initiative early on, as they scored the opening goal in the seventh minute when KOMURA Misato delivered a pass to WAKABAYASHI Eri, allowing her to slot the ball into the net. Three minutes later, the ball was passed from NAKAJIMA Shiori to YOTSUI Saki then to AMISHIRO Anna who launched a powerful shot with her left foot to extend their lead. Japan went on to a goal rush as Wakabayashi scored her second goal in the 17th minute, followed by EGAWA Ryo’s goal in the 18th minute and KATSUMATA Riho’s goal in the 20th minute, ending the first half with a score of 5-0.

Japan’s scoring spree did not stop in the second half. In the 28th minute Amishiro scored her second goal off a corner kick, followed by the Captain, FUJITA Mio’s strike to make the score at 7-0. The Japanese side continued as Wakabayashi and Amishiro both recorded a hat trick, while CHIDA Hinako, who was making her national team debut scored a brace. Japan secured their spot into the final round as they registered a 13-0 victory over Bahrain.

Amishiro who scored a hat trick was named the most valuable player of the match.

Seeking to top their group, Japan Women's Futsal National Team will now face China PR Women’s Futsal National Team on Monday 7 May at 15:30 (local time).

Coach's and Players' Comments

KOGURE Kenichiro, Coach (Japan Women's Futsal National Team)
I am glad we were able to accomplish two of our goals today, one was to clinch the final round and the other was to keep a clean sheet. Our next match against China PR represents a major role ahead of the quarterfinals, so we will prepare well for it.

GK #12 SUGIYAMA Aiko (FUGADOR SUMIDA LADIES)
I am relieved that we were able to keep a clean sheet, as it was one of our goals today. We scored many goals today and it should allow us to enter the match against China PR in good shape. We will continue to do what we are supposed to do and win out of this round as group leaders. If we can manage to win the group, it will help us in the quarterfinals, so we will switch our mindset and prepare for our next match.

FP #8 AMISHIRO Anna (SWH Ladies Futsal Club)
Heading into today’s match against Bahrain, our goal was to keep a clean sheet. We struggled a bit facing a physically strong team, but we managed to take control of the match by scoring the opener and following it up with more goals. Our next match against China PR would be a difficult match for us, but we will fight as a team and do our best to advance through this round as group leaders.
