Match Info

Kochi United secured a vital 2-1 home victory over Albirex Niigata in the J2/J3 100 Year Vision League on April 12th, 2026. The match, played at Kochi's home ground, was a closely fought encounter that saw the hosts come from behind to claim all three points and boost their standing in the league table. This result is a significant boost for Kochi's campaign, demonstrating their resilience against a strong opponent. Albirex Niigata started brightly and took a deserved lead in the 25th minute, finishing a swift counter-attack with a low drive into the corner. Kochi United responded with increased pressure and found an equalizer just before halftime, a scrappy goal from a set-piece that leveled the score and changed the momentum. The second half was a tense affair, with Kochi United finally grabbing the winner in the 78th minute through a spectacular long-range strike that left the Niigata goalkeeper with no chance. A key incident was a disallowed goal for Albirex Niigata for a narrow offside call, a decision that proved pivotal in the final outcome. The three points lift Kochi United several places in the 100 Year Vision League standings, while Albirex Niigata's inconsistent form continues. After the final whistle, the Kochi manager praised his team's fighting spirit, while the Albirex coach pointed to the disallowed goal as a turning point but acknowledged his team's need to be more clinical. Kochi United's starting lineup featured an attacking 4-4-2, which ultimately paid off with their second-half winner.
