Yokohama F. Marinos extended their unbeaten run to nine games by hammering Yokohama FC 5-0 at home in Saturday’s J. League first-division Yokohama derby.
Marinos, whose only loss this year came on their first day of the season to reigning champion Kawasaki Frontale, had little trouble dispatching the visitors, who have yet to win this season, at Nissan Stadium.
Age is just a number and footballer Kazuyoshi Miura proves that. The oldest footballer in Japanese professional football is set to play on at the age of 54 after extending his contract with Yokohama FC for another season. It will be his 17th season with the club he joined in 2005.
He last scored against Thespakusatsu Gunma in 2017 in Japan’s second division, becoming the oldest player to score in a Japanese professional league game at 50 years and 14 days. The 2021 season will be Miura’s 36th as a professional after starting his career with Santos in Brazil in 1986.
Kazuyoshi Miura is one of the most revered sportsmen in Japan and was at the forefront of the country s football boom in the early 1990s when he was the poster boy of the newly launched league in 1993. He led Verdy Kawasaki to the title in 1993 and 1994 before moving to Italy. Miura won the Asian Cup with Japan in 1992 but missed out on representing his country on their debut appearance at the World Cup finals in Fr
