It is a shocking collapse of the prestigious Japanese J-League. Yokohama F. Marinos shows little sign of rebounding this season.
On the 12th (Korea time), Japan's Football Zone recorded a shocking defeat for Yokohama. The director took it seriously, too,' he reported.
Yokohama was eliminated after losing 0-2 in the second round of the 2024 J-League Cup against Linemere Aomori at Japan's Nipatsu Mitsuzawa Stadium on the 11th. Aomori, who defeated Yokohama, is a member of the JFL (fourth division), and the league is not a professional league, but an amateur top league. Yokohama, one of the most prestigious J-League teams, fell out of the cup competition after being held back by an amateur team.

Football Zone reported that Yokohama failed to score against Aomori, who succeeded in killing the Giant with a 2-0 win. Coach Patrick Kisnovo disappointed the cheering fans, saying, `It's a really upsetting result.' I think it's natural to be booed. I'm going to prepare for the next game," he said, taking the defeat seriously.
Yokohama is one of the teams representing the J-League. He has consistently been selected as a strong team in the J League, including five J1 League wins. In 2018, coach Enze Postecoglou took over and led him to win the J1 League in the 2019 season. Yokohama is also proud to have never experienced a relegation since the launch of the J-League.

However, Yokohama's downfall this season is unusual. I'm having the worst season to go down in history. He is at the bottom of the league with 3 wins, 5 draws and 10 losses in 18 league games. The team's atmosphere is also shaky throughout the season. Last December, Yokohama appointed Steve Holland from the big league. However, Holland failed to lead Yokohama properly and was dismissed in April. Since then, even some coaches have left, and the team has not been able to operate properly.
Yokohama was later appointed as the team's official coach after head coach Kisinovo served as acting coach, but his performance did not improve easily. Expectations for a rebound have grown recently with two consecutive wins in the league, but the team atmosphere is on the verge of sinking again because it suffered the humiliation of losing to an amateur team and eliminating the cup. If the J-League's representative club fails to escape the crisis, it is expected that it could even suffer the worst result unimaginable this season, relegation.
