But while Otsuki will look to find the balance between pushing his team to score the goals needed to add this year’s title to the ones won in 2007 and 2017, he knows his players must strike the right balance between attack and defence in their bid to make history. “In a game like tomorrow we have to control ourselves, and when I say control people think that we’re not going for it and that we will be trying to control our emotions,” said Otsuki, who has been at the helm of the team since May. “But sometimes we need an explosion, emotionally and phys- ically.

However, there is still plenty for both sides to play for with first place and a home game in the Round of 16 against the runners-up from Group F on the line. Adelaide host Shandong Luneng of China knowing if they match Pohang’s result against Sanfrecce Hiroshima they will top the group ahead of the defending champions by virtue of a better head-to-head record. A defeat for the Australian club and a Pohang victory would see the Korean side take first place and with it home field advantage in the second round. Pohang, meanwhile, visit Japan to face Sanfrecce Hiroshima needing a win to have any realistic chance of topping the group ahead of Adelaide United.
