Urawa Reds forward Yuika Sugasawa was selected for the first time as the best player of last season in the Nadeshiko League, a soccer girl.
The Nadeshiko League finished last season's schedule last November, and the Reds won the championship for the first time in six years.
On the 17th, the award ceremony, which had been postponed due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, was held online, and Sugawara, who won the top scorer in the Reds forward for the first time in five seasons, was selected as the best player for the first time. ..
Sugazawa said, "I'm surprised. I'm honored to be selected. Last season, it was difficult to prepare my feelings and body due to the influence of the new coronavirus. I haven't been the top scorer in the last few years, but I scored as a forward I'm glad I got it, "he smiled.
He expressed his enthusiasm for the "WE League," a professional soccer league for women's soccer, which is scheduled to start this fall, saying, "I want to play in a new league as well."
