Matchday 18 of the Prince Takamado Trophy JFA U-18 Football Premier League 2024 EAST was an away match against FC Tokyo U-18 at the Tokyo Gas Musashino-en Multipurpose Ground.

With many key players absent due to national team selection and poor condition, Ogasawara #47, a third-year junior high school student, was in the starting lineup for this match.
From the first half, they tried to attack by connecting passes, but a period continued where they couldn't get off a shot. Meanwhile, FC Tokyo U-18 managed to get crosses in from their build-up play, but the defenders bravely blocked them. After that, Ogasawara #47 and Hirashima #32 combined up front to create space and attack, but they couldn't score, and the first half ended scoreless.
In the second half, the game became a good one with high intensity in both attack and defense. Kashima Youth, eager to score, brought in Takagi #56, a third-year junior high school student. They attacked with Takagi as the focal point, but they struggled to break down the opponent's solid defense.
The game changed in the 78th minute when Dobashi #3 scored from a corner kick, giving Kashima Youth the lead. Then, in additional time, Motosuna #25 scored again from a corner kick, making it 2-0 and ending the match. Everyone contributed as an indispensable force to the team, securing three points.
The next match is on Sunday, October 20th, away against Kawasaki Frontale U-18.
