1992, team professional reform. However, the teams at the low ebb failed to qualify for the newly-established Japan Professional Football League (J League) and had to continue to compete in the second league in Japan. 1993, the team changed its name to Hitachi FC Cypress Sun God Football Club, appointed former Japanese international Zhong Fang Yamaguchi as the head coach of the team, introduced Brazilian star Antonio Careca, and set the goal of entering the J League, but this season the team only ranked fifth and failed to upgrade. 1994, the team hired Brazilian coach Zé Sérgio, and in the same year, he was promoted to the second place in the Japanese Football League, and qualified for the J League next year.
1995, the team that entered the J League for the first time did not perform well. In the first stage of the season, he suffered a losing streak of 10, ranking first from the bottom in the team of 14. Head coach Zé Sérgio was also forced to leave. However, thanks to the outstanding performance of young players such as Naoki Sakai and Hideki Watanabe, the team showed strong offensive strength in the second stage and ended the second stage with the fifth place.
1996, the team was renamed White Sun God Football Club, and Hitachi was the main sponsor of the team. The team hired Brazilian Nicanor Carvalho as the head coach, introduced Brazilian foreign aid edilson, and promoted young players such as Shen Ming He Zhi, Kensuke Nebiki and Makoto Sunakawa to the first team. The team set off a youth storm this season and set a winning streak of 12 in the middle of the season. In the end, the team ranked fifth in the League, and Nicanor Carvalho also won the award of the best coach in the J League this season.
During the period of 1997, Junichiro Nishino, who once played for the team as a player, ended the task of the Japanese Olympic team and returned to become the assistant coach of the team. Paulo jamelli and other reinforcements were introduced into the team, and Harutaka Ono from the Japanese national youth team also joined the team. After the first stage, the team won the third place, and once climbed to the top of the league after defeating Whale Eight in Nagoya in the seventh round. However, in the second stage, the team slipped, ranking only 10. At the end of the season, coach Nicanor Carvalho announced his retirement.
1998, Nishino Lang took over as the team coach. The team started well this season, but with the progress of the league, its state declined obviously, and then it was hit by the voluntary departure of foreign aid in late May. However, after that, the team brought in Bulgarian star hristo stoichkov, Shen Ming He Zhi and Minami Yuuta, and other locally trained players, who also entered the Japanese Olympic team. At the end of the season, the team ranked eighth in the league in total score.
During the period of 1999, the team introduced Hong Mingfu, Sachuan and other defensive players abroad, which solved the problem of attacking the strong and defending the weak. This season, the team's training of young players has achieved results. At the end of the season, the team won the third place in the league, and defeated Kashima Antlers in the Japanese League Cup final in the same year, winning the first national championship in Japan since its professionalization. Junichi Watanabe won the MVP of this year's Japanese League Cup.
In 2000, the structure of the three generations of the team was reasonable, and the results rose steadily. Hideaki Kitajima, a local rising star, scored 18 goals throughout the year, and Hirayama Gui Zhi and Harutaka Ono also made amazing performances in this year's competition. The team scored 15 and 1 1 in the second stage of this year, ranking second in the league with a slight disadvantage, which is also the best result in the history since the team joined the J League. Ming Shenzhihe participated in the Sydney Olympic Games with the Japanese national team and helped the Japanese national team win the Asian Cup in Lebanon in 2000. At the end of the season, Nishino Lang was named the best coach in J League, while Hong Mingfu and He Zhimingde entered the best team in J League.
At the beginning of 200 1 season, the team set the goal of winning the championship. However, this season, Hong Mingfu, the core of defense, has been out of action for a long time due to injury, and Huang Shanhong has also entered the bench because of fierce competition among players in the same position. The unstable defense led to the decline of the team's record. After the first stage, the team only ranked sixth in the league. Under heavy pressure, the team fired the meritorious coach Nishino Lang, and the position of the head coach was taken over by Englishman Perryman. However, the change of the head coach did not improve the team's performance, and the team ended the second stage of the game with a record of seventh place. Although Minami Yuuta won the Fair Play Award in J League at the end of the season, Hong Mingfu's departure marked the end of the team's modern times.
In 2002, due to the World Cup held in Korea and Japan, the schedule of J League was adjusted to some extent. The core of the team, such as Shen Ming He Zhi, Huang Shanhong and Liu Xiangtie, were transferred to their respective national teams, and the World Cup campaign greatly affected the physical fitness of these three players. Even after the World Cup, two South Korean foreign AIDS announced their departure after two games. However, the performance of the team continued to decline. Steve Perryman was fired after a seven-game losing streak in the first stage, and Brazilian coach Marco morera became the firefighting coach. After a turbulent season, the team beat Gamba Osaka 2-0 with goals from Yuji Unozawa and edilson in the final battle, and finally succeeded in relegation.
In 2003, in order to alleviate the age gap between players, head coach Marco morera actively invited young players to participate. Naoya Kondo, Satoshi Nagata, Yuji Unozawa, Dai Ya Tanizawa, Kisho Yano and other rookies got more playing opportunities. Except for Kisho Yano's injury, the other four participated in the 2003 World Youth Football Championship with the Japanese U-20 national team. In addition, Keiji Tamada, a young local striker, also made a big splash in the J League, scoring 1 1 ball in a single season. However, due to the unstable performance of young players, the team's record has not improved, and the total score of the two stages is still only 12. Marco morera left at the end of the season, as did Hideaki Kitajima and Harutaka Ono.
In 2004, former assistant coach Ikeya Youliang became the new coach of the team, and the team also ushered in two consecutive victories. However, after the stunning reversal of Niigata Swan in the third round of J League, the team was devastated. 12 defeat, including two consecutive four-game losing streak, made the team ranked only 15 in the first stage, and Ikegu Youliang resigned as head coach after the first stage. Hiroshi Hayano succeeded as the head coach, but the team's performance was still poor. Although striker Keiji Tamada helped the Japanese national team win the Asian Cup in China in 2004, the team still ranked only 15 after the second stage and had to participate in the promotion and demotion play-offs. In the play-offs, the team defeated Fukuoka Hornets 2-0 and finally succeeded in relegation.
In 2005, J League cancelled the two-stage competition system and changed to a single-season system. Hiroshi Hayano continued as head coach, and South Korean striker Cui Chengguo joined the team. However, the problem of the team's insufficient offensive ability has not been alleviated, and there are 6 games without goals in the first 12 games. On April 23rd, 2005, the team lost to Whale Eight at home in Nagoya. After the game, two teams of fans had violent incidents, and were fined by the Japanese Football Association with the highest amount of 6,543,800,000 yen in history. Hiroshi Hayano was fired in the middle of the season, and Kazuhiko Takemoto served as the acting coach. After that, the team hired ruy ramos as the executive coach, and invited franca, a former Brazilian international, to try to change the team's depressed situation, but with little effect. On June 5438+00, 15, in the 27th round of J League in 2005, Sun Shen Bo, who was sent off by two players, defeated Puhe Red Diamond 0-7, completely destroying the team's morale. The team ended the season with a score of 16, and was double-killed by Jiafu LAM Raymond in the promotion and demotion play-offs, and relegated to J2 League with a total score of 3-8. After the end of the season, Shinhiro Ishizaki took over as the team coach for the coming year.
In 2006, due to the team's demotion, the main players He Zhi, Keiji Tamada, Kisho Yano, etc. switched to other teams one after another, so the coach Shinbo Ishizaki had to choose to rebuild and use a lot of young players. This season, the team shouted the slogan of "One Heart" and decided to rush back to the J 1 League, which won the support of many fans. The team won six consecutive victories in the opening stage, and once ranked first in J2 League, but its performance declined in the middle of the season. Fortunately, in the last game, the team defeated Bima in southern Hunan 3-0, and the losing Kobe Victory Ship took the second place in the league, and finally pulled back J 1. In addition, the team official website, official blog and team song have been released this season, and the team culture construction has made outstanding progress.
In 2007, Shinhiro Ishizaki continued to be the head coach of the team. As a newly promoted horse, the team set a goal of scoring 45 points in the season. The team had a good momentum in the opening stage. First, he defeated Pan Tianxi 4-0 at home in the first game, and once again occupied the top of the league after the fifth round in 10. Tadanari Lee, a naturalized player, Minor Suganuma, a teammate, and other young players held the team's flag. The transfer of Koga Yamei and franca further strengthened the team's strength in both offensive and defensive ends. The team played an impressive record of eight consecutive victories in the difficult schedule in summer, and achieved the goal of 45 points before the season after defeating Kawasaki striker 4-0 at home in the 26th round. However, after that, the team's winning streak slowed down and finally ranked eighth in the league with 50 points. 165438+ 10, Tadanari Lee and Kobayashi joined the Japanese Olympic team to prepare for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.
In 2008, the team suffered a large area of injuries before the start of the season, which affected the team's performance. Despite Suganuma's excellent performance this season, Haruki Murakami's league debut contributed a hat trick to help the team rank third in the league after 15 rounds. However, in the second half of the season, the team lost ten rounds in a row and finally ranked 1 1 in the league. At the same time, the team made a breakthrough in the Emperor's Cup in Japan, eliminated opponents such as Hiroshima Sanjian and Tokyo FC all the way to the final, and was finally defeated by Gamba Osaka in the overtime of the final, and won the runner-up in the Emperor's Cup. At the end of the season, Shinbo Ishizaki stepped down as head coach.
In 2009, Ichiro Makoto Takahashi became the team coach. The team introduced Brazilian midfielder Arauthes Wu and other foreign aid, promoted five young players from the echelon to the first team, and set the goal of winning the championship with 55 points in the season. However, Arauthes-Wu was reimbursed for serious injuries at the beginning of the season, and franca and other key players were injured one after another. In the first seven rounds of the league, the team was 5 draws and 2 losses, and then suffered a five-game losing streak from the 10 round, with only 15 points in half a season. In the middle of the season, Ichiro Makoto Takahashi was fired by the team, and Brazilian coach Nell Sinho Baptista became the firefighting coach. Under the leadership of the new coach, the team improved the defense system, and once had excellent performances such as a 5-0 victory over Qingshui at home. However, in the first half of the season, the team lost too many points and was riddled with injuries. After the penultimate round 1- 1 draw with the Palace Squirrel, the team announced the demotion in advance.
20 10, the team followed last season's coach Neil Sinho. Although Minor Suganuma, franca and other main players left the team one after another, they also gave young frontcourt attackers such as Masato Kudo, Junya Tanaka and Ryohei Hayashi more opportunities to play. In addition, striker Domingos bought from Cruzeiro, Brazil, made the team pay more attention to passing and control penetration. The stability of the offensive and defensive ends has created an excellent record. In the first half of the season, the team topped the list with an unbeaten record of 14 wins and 5 draws, and then beat Yokohama FC 2-0 at home in the 36th round, locking in the J2 League championship two rounds ahead of schedule, so that it can return to j 1 League next season. Masato Kudo and others followed the Japanese Olympic team on June 5438+0 10, and won the men's football gold medal in the 20 10 Guangzhou Asian Games.
20 1 1, the team played in the J 1 league as a newly promoted horse. Under the framework of retaining most of the advanced heroes, the team also introduced Ernst & Young, Huck, Jorge Wagner and other domestic and foreign aid, and set the goal of rushing into the top six of the league. Although J League defeated Shimizu 3-0 at home in the first game, it was suspended for several days due to the Great East Japan Earthquake, but the team's state was not affected by this. The dream start of 9 games and 7 wins also made the team rank first in the standings. In the middle of the season, the team encountered strong challenges from teams such as Whale Eight in Nagoya and Gamba in Osaka, and once fell to fourth place. However, in the final stage, the team once again performed strongly with 9 wins 1 1. After defeating Puhe Red Diamond with 3- 1 in the last game, the team won the professionalism with the score of 1. After the end of the season, Leandro, who contributed 15 goals and 7 assists, won the honor of the best player in the league. Together with Naoya Kondo, Hiroki Sakai and Wagner, he entered the official best team in this season's J League, and coach Nell Sinho won the best coach in this season's J League. In June 5438+February of the same year, the team participated in the World Club Cup competition as the champion of the host country's league. After eliminating the Oceania champion Auckland City and the Central and North American champion Monterrey respectively, it reached the semi-finals of the World Club Cup. But then the team lost to South American champion Santos in the semi-final, lost to Asian champion Alsad in the third and fourth finals, and finally won the fourth place in the World Club Cup.
On 20 12, Nell Sinho continued to be in charge of the team, and the team also made some reinforcement in the substitute lineup. At the beginning of the Super Bowl, the team beat Tokyo FC 2-/kloc-0-0 at home to win the championship. However, after that, the team faced the dual-track challenge of J League and AFC Champions League, showing signs of being unable to cope. After the end of the spring schedule, the team once ranked only 15. In the AFC Champions League, relying on the excellent performance of beating Jeonbuk Hyundai at home and away, the team narrowly advanced to the top of 1 point, but in the subsequent 1/8 final, the team lost 2-3 away to the final champion Ulsan Hyundai, which was a pity. Only the team that fought on a single line in the league has since given the performance of 7 games and 5 wins, ranking once climbed to the third place. In the middle of the season, Hiroki Sakai moved to Hannover 96 in Bundesliga, which affected the team's offensive strength. Although Leandro once again entered the best team in the J League after the season, the tepid team ended the season in sixth place. However, the team made a breakthrough in the competition of the Imperial Cup, and eliminated teams such as Omiya Squirrel and Yokohama Mariner all the way to the final. On the New Year's Day of 20 13, the final of the Emperor Cup was held in Tokyo National Arena. In the face of Gamba Osaka, which once struggled, the team took advantage of corner kick to score the only goal in Hirofumi Watanabe, and won the Imperial Cup again after 37 years.
20 13, Neil Sinho coached the team for the fifth season. Teams that continue to fight on two fronts this season have also introduced foreign aid from home and abroad, such as Jing Daole Suzuki and cleo, to supplement their strength. As the champion of the Emperor Cup last season, the team could have challenged the Super Cup again, but lost to Hiroshima with three arrows 0-/kloc-0-0, and finally failed to defend its title. The team's performance in the league is still mediocre. Although Masato Kudo scored 19 goals in a single season, the intensive schedule still led to the team ranking 10 at the end of the season, with only 48 points. Nell Sinho submitted his resignation after losing 65,438+0-3 to Kashima Antlers on August 365,438+0, but his resignation request was finally persuaded by the team. However, in the AFC Champions League, the team made a greater breakthrough. First, he won the first place in the group stage with an unbeaten record of 4 wins and 2 draws, and then eliminated Jeonbuk Hyundai Motor and Riyadh Youth in the knockout stage and reached the semi-finals. Due to the strength gap in the semi-final, the team lost to Guangzhou Evergrande in two rounds, ending the AFC Champions League journey. In addition, in the Carling Cup, the team eliminated Hiroshima Sanjian and Yokohama Mariners to reach the final, then relied on Masato Kudo's goal in the 77th minute 1-0 to beat Urawa Red Diamond, and won the Carling Cup again after 14 years, which is the fourth Japanese top-level championship won by the team in three years. Masato Kudo was voted the most valuable player in the Japanese League Cup.
In the 20 14 season, the team fought alone, and echelon players such as Naoki Nakatani and Hirosuke Nakatani entered the team's first team lineup. Nell Sinho tried the three-guard tactical system at the beginning of the season, but it didn't work. In the eighth round of the league, he returned to the four-guard formation again. However, since May, the team suffered injuries one after another, and had to promote five teenagers including Oshima Anshi to the first team in the middle of the season. In August of the same year, Suruga Bank Cup, the team represented by last season's League Cup champion defeated the visiting South American Club Cup champion Ranus Athletic Team 2-/kloc-0, and won the championship. However, after the league, the team showed the attitude of "home dragon, away worm", ranking once fell to ninth. At the same time, in the semi-final match against Hiroshima Sanjian in the Carling Cup, the team was once at home disadvantage under the unfavorable situation of falling behind by two goals, but it was defeated by Naoki Ishihara at the last moment and there was no chance to reverse it. However, at the end of the league, the team rebounded strongly, ended the season with seven consecutive victories, and won the fourth place in the league by virtue of its competitive advantage. As Gamba Osaka won both the league and the Imperial Cup this season, the fourth-ranked cypress team was able to enter the AFC Champions League next season. 65438+ In February of the same year, Nell Sinho, who coached the team for six seasons, resigned as head coach, and Yoshida Dharma became the successor of this position.
