Four unbeaten games proved insufficient to help the hosting outfit to better spots. They humbled Consadole Sapporo in the 4-1 intimidation but lost 0-1 to Fukuoka in a thrilling encounter that saw their efforts yield to nothing after the 22nd goal by Lukian.

They should score in the game, but fans urge that they play with the nerve of a win, not just to avoid losing.
