Match24 Oct 2026

No end in sight to Vegalta Sendai's wait for a win

12 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Vegalta Sendai has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad26 Oct 2026

20 days out for Yosuke Maeda after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Vegalta Sendai will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Match26 Oct 2026

Vegalta Sendai sink to position 16

7 points, and a fixture list that is running out. The mathematics are not yet cruel, but they are no longer kind.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Masayuki Okuyama says Vegalta Sendai went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad26 Oct 2026

A one-man rearguard from Daniel Schmidt

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Shunta Araki 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 Vegalta Sendai this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Words at Vegalta Sendai training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Renji Matsui 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.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

Nobody could get near Shunta Araki

Successful dribbles: 20. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match24 Oct 2026

Yokohama F. Marinos take the points off Vegalta Sendai

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Match17 Oct 2026

11 matches without a win for Vegalta Sendai

The run now stands at 11, and the questions being asked around Vegalta Sendai are no longer polite ones.

Squad19 Oct 2026

A fracture rules Yosuke Maeda out for 29 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Vegalta Sendai will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Words exchanged at Vegalta Sendai

Renji Matsui and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad19 Oct 2026

A row about effort at Vegalta Sendai

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Masahiro Sugata was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

No hiding place for Aoi Kudo

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

The dugout19 Oct 2026

Nagatomo Doan: “We have to be better”

“It is not the end of the world and it is not good enough. Both of those are true.” The manager, after a 0‑0 draw, said the honest thing and then went to say it again inside.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

The form table has caught Ryunosuke Sagara

Somebody else has been better, the manager has said so with a team sheet, and there is no argument to be had. He will get the shirt back the only way it can be got back.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

A promise honoured at Vegalta Sendai

Something was said to Hidetoshi Takeda and then it happened. In this industry that passes for remarkable, and the dressing room noticed faster than any supporter could.

Player ratings19 Oct 2026

Shunta Araki was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 12. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.
