Match12 Sep 2026

No mercy from Kawasaki Frontale

Omiya Ardija will want this one forgotten quickly: 4‑0, every duel lost, and a long ride home. Kawasaki Frontale were ruthless in the way good sides are ruthless.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Tatsuya Ito in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Kawasaki Frontale this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Erison has a hand in both — 7.86

One scored and one made, which is a different afternoon from scoring twice and an easier one to overlook. Marked 7.86, and involved in 2 of his side's goals.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Ninety minutes of Kento Tachibanada at his very best

Marked 8.66. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Kawasaki Frontale.

Match12 Sep 2026

Kawasaki Frontale settle it inside twenty minutes

2 goals before the ground had finished arriving. Omiya Ardija spent the rest of the afternoon playing a match that had already been decided, and everybody in the stadium knew it.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Asahi Sasaki falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Yasuto Wakizaka was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.25. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Marcinho in the eights

A performance of 8.16 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad14 Sep 2026

The manager makes an example of Shintaro Kurumaya

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Kawasaki Frontale

Tatsuya Ito was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad7 Sep 2026

No hiding place for Svend Brodersen

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Svend Brodersen, and the manager let it.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Words at Kawasaki Frontale training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Asahi Sasaki is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad7 Sep 2026

A month that belonged to Soma Kanda

The young player of the month award goes to a 20-year-old at Kawasaki Frontale who has looked like the finished article for four weekends running. The next four are the ones that decide whether he is.

Match5 Sep 2026

Honours even between Kawasaki Frontale and FC Tokyo

1‑1, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

Market7 Sep 2026

Experience through the door at Kawasaki Frontale

Mauro Bazán arrives at 33 with nothing left to prove and plenty left to pass on. Legs are a young man's currency; knowing where to stand never ages.
