Came on to post this if no one had already lol - I probably would’ve added some context to the title, something like ‘With the J1 title race tied and two games remaining Yuya Osako chips the ball into an empty net in the 97th minute to take Kobe three points clear’.
Difficult to get all that information into a title but I doubt many on here are aware that this was a potentially title deciding goal and clips posted without context from leagues outside the top 5 in Europe often don’t get many views.
Anyway, as for the goal itself, Maekawa and Osako both show great composure, obviously you’d expect most professional footballers to be able to put the ball into the net from there under no pressure but given the circumstances it would’ve been easy to panic and rush the shot.
