Looks like Kawasaki won the earlier game so no chance for top today.

Osaka derby 0-0 at half time with Taggart amongst the chances, the closest hitting the post.

Taggart off after 65 minutes, currently winning 0-1.

Peupion starting against Liverpool in the U23s.

Ends a 0-2 win for Kashima, Kev still well clear in second place on the table, 15 points ahead of Kashima who have leapfrogged to third place with the win. Oonly four points between YFM and Kawasaki on the top of the table, who only just had their 30 game unbeaten streak broken. It's still all to play for for Kev.

Yoko FM and Kawasaki meet in the final round of the season.

hrustic playing as a 6 today

I guess if he does well there we can have mooy hrustic and rogic as the mids

Didn't realise Oli Glasner was Frankfurt's manager

Finally James, you have had a fine career so far. Are there managers that have helped you in terms of advice that aided your development as a professional footballer?

I would say my current manager at LASK Linz, Oliver Glasner, he has been sensational for me.

It's only Australia where he gets played further forward
His last year in Holland and now Germany he is played deeper as an 8 or 6 through the centre 

Hrustic playing very well. Almost had an assist and is passing the ball well in that 6 position. Frankfurt fans happy as well. 

very impressive performance from hrustic. Energetic, tight control, very mobile, also gets forward and nearly got an assist

he started as a winger in the eredivisie first few times I saw him

definitely should have mooy rogic and hrustic as our midfield with mooy as an 8

professional league debut for him 

that stadium can seat about 11% of the city's population 

Luongo out with a knock today. 

Can anyone watching the game comment on Hrustic’s ability in the tackle?

He must be decent enough at tackling / defending if he’s starting regular games as a DM in the Bundesliga! 

True he did start as a winger/attacker at Groningan
Season before last he switched to the centre playing alot deeper from memory 
More of an 8 box to box
Since his move to Germany has only played in the centre 
I feel that like Mooy he is technically sound,good passer and works hard in defence.
Can drive the team forward from his own half as well as join the attack 
More mobile than Mooy though.

Genreau subbed on.

Peupion played 90 in 1-1 draw with Liverpool U23. Liverpool’s team is stacked, even has a current senior international for Northern Ireland so that’s a great result. 

Any time I turn my head to look at the tele he kinda misses them. It's more down to the timing of where the ball ends up in the 50 50s to be fair. He scoops up a fair number of loose balls and can distribute it away int the clear swiftly.

He did a great run into the box, beating his defender one on one & should've had an assist

Boyle scored

Goal Boyle.
