Yuki Abe's retirement match "Various famous scenes. The last match full of smiles"

On the 12th, the "Yuki Abe Retirement Match" was held at Saitama Stadium.

When the players entered, a big flag with the heart 22 written on the back stand and the letters "ABE YUKI" on the back of the north goal welcomed Abe, who was the main player of the day.

In the first half, Abe played as a member of JEF・JAPAN FRIENDS, and URAWA ASIAN KINGS was centered around members who won the AFC Champions League in 2007.

From the beginning, Marcus Torio Tanaka scolded Masayuki Okano and excited the stadium, but it was JEF・JAPAN FRIENDS who took the lead. In the 20th minute, Abe's teammate of JEF United Ichihara Chiba and Satoshi Yamagishi, who is a junior in JEF United Ichihara's training organization, threw in a cross that Abe pushed into the goal. The leading role of the day took the first goal.

In the 32nd minute, JEF・JAPAN FRIENDS got a free kick on the right side, and Shunsuke Nakamura took the ball to the center. Although it was clearly different from the place where the foul was received, referee Masaaki Iemoto put his hand to his ear and made a gesture to check the VAR (video assistant referee), which should not exist in this match. It became from the position where the ball was placed. In addition, referee Iemoto drew a heart with vanishing spray to indicate the location of the ball, creating a stylish effect.

For some reason, URAWA ASIAN KINGS' Masayuki Okano ran for that FK and put in a feint to step over the ball, and Abe aimed directly, but the ball went over the frame.

Immediately after that, in the 34th minute, JEF・JAPAN FRIENDS got a chance for a free kick because it was decided that Torio had been defeated. Then, Tolio slowly took off his uniform and put it on Abe, and the kicker was Abe. In the 35th minute, Abe's direct FK hit the left corner of the box and went outside. Unfortunately no goals were scored.

In the 36th minute, Tolio scored a loop shot to score. Tulio, who should have started in the center of the defensive line, suddenly found himself in the forefront position. In the 27th minute, when the offside flag was raised, he pushed the ball into the goal, hoisted his uniform over the corner flag, and called the assistant referee. I saw the corner flag and performed a performance, but this time the goal was recognized firmly. In the 38th minute, Turio scored a mid-range shot to give URAWA ASIAN KINGS the lead.

In the 41st minute, Tolio slid inside his own penalty area. Referee Iemoto blew the whistle as if he was aiming for the opponent's legs rather than the ball, and the kicker was awarded to Abe. URAWA ASIAN KINGS tied the score with a solid shot to the left of the goal.

In the second half, where both team members changed significantly, Abe entered, and URAWA ASIAN KINGS, centered on the members who were enrolled in 2017, scored goals.

In the 55th minute, Toshiyuki Takagi's cross was dropped by Shinzo Koroki, and Yuki Muto pushed in to score. Muto also decided to "gatten pose" toward the back of the goal.

In the 63rd minute, Okano, who should have been substituted at the end of the first half, dashed in front of the bench and clashed with Torio. Tsukasa Umezaki, who was sent a chant from behind the goal, scored in the 67th minute. Tadaaki Hirakawa 's cross was pushed in with a left foot one-touch to decide.

In the 68th minute, Hirakawa and Keita Suzuki were replaced by Yushin Abe, Ryomasa Abe and Abe's two sons. While each played well and excited the stadium, Korogi Koroki in the 73rd minute. Koroki was not too happy about scoring the goal, and there was also a heartwarming scene where he apologized for not passing the pass to Ryoga, who was free on his right.

Then, in the 81st minute, Yushin broke through between the two opponents in the opponent's penalty area and scored. Then, in the 89th minute, Ryoga, who received a through ball from Abe and slipped behind the defense line, also scored. As in the first half, the added time was 22 minutes, and Abe headed a cross from the right side to score the goal. When the father-son hotline was established and Abe was tossed up, referee Murakami blew a long whistle, ending Yuki Abe's retirement match, which produced various famous and rare scenes.
