Start-em Young
The Grampus starting line-up for tonight's ACL game in Beijing contains Matsuo and Sato in defence, Fukushima and Hanai in midfield, and Niikawa up front. With 20-year-old Yoshida also in the line-up, this make one of the youngest teams Grampus have ever fielded. Most of our other rookies have 'made' the bench. :-)

...and they still pulled out the draw.. good stuff!
Anyway, can't believe it took me this long to find your site! Until the next preseason-friendly in 2010... (and maybe for the whole season next year, we probably can't play in Nagaragawa and there are rumours that we might have to use Mizuho!! - recipe for disaster!)
