Today's game was won by our sheer concentration and determination. We were able to score early to control the game, but credits to Niigata they were poised and they actually looked better than us.
We were able to win ball and carry the up to the Final 1/3 of the field but when we get close to the goal, they had the numbers to prevent us from penetrating, but also we didn't control the ball as well as we could have. So, we kept the game close for them.
Second half were the same. But, as they were looking for equalizer and we were looking for goal to put the game away, game became more active with ball going up and down the field. But second goal came from set piece. They had defended with determination but we were able to squeak pass one. Then Niigata decided to go for broke and we punished them with 3 goals including an own goal.
So the final score 5-0 and we were able to cut down our goal differential, and were able to finish the game in the second half, but we need to create more chances in 1st half and score when the opportunity arrives.
We were better team as far as concentration is concern.
