Match report
Kyoto Sanga came from 2-0 down to beat Newcastle Jets 5-2 in Kyoto, turning the match after a first half in which Newcastle twice scored from the spot. Kyoto took control after the break and pulled away with three more goals.
Newcastle led from 13 minutes when Patrick Wood converted a penalty after VAR had confirmed the decision for Zane Schreiber. Wood made it 2-0 in the 45th minute with another penalty after a second VAR check for Joe Lolley, but Kyoto cut the gap three minutes into first-half stoppage time when Hisashi Appiah Tawiah headed in from Takaaki Shichi. The half-time score was 1-2.
Kyoto equalised on 56 minutes through Alex Souza, who had come on in the 45th minute, after Marco Túlio set him up. Marco Túlio then restored the lead on 60 minutes from Alex Souza's pass before Newcastle made two changes on 60 minutes. Kyoto made two changes on 72 minutes after Haruki Arai had already assisted Rafael Papagaio for the fourth goal on 67 minutes, and Alex Souza struck again on 84 minutes, his second of the match, from Masaya Okugawa's assist, who had come on in the 72nd minute. Newcastle also made a double change on 60 minutes and another on 69 and 82 minutes, but they found no answer after the interval.
The numbers backed Kyoto's recovery. They had 56% of the ball, 528 passes to Newcastle's 429, and 30 shots to 7, with 15 on target to 2. Kyoto also led xG 3.23 to 1.8, won 11 corners to 2, and had 10 saves to Newcastle's 0, while the visitors committed 12 fouls and Kyoto 8.
