Kobe Steelers vs Shizuoka BlueRevs head to head

In a closely contested match, the Shizuoka BlueRevs triumphed over the Kobelco Kobe Steelers with a score of 29-23. Bryn Gatland opened the scoring for Kobe with a penalty, but the BlueRevs responded quickly with a try from Kitamura. Gatland then scored a try of his own to give Kobe the lead, which they held until halftime despite further efforts from the BlueRevs. The second half saw Kitamura score again, alongside another strong performance from Greene, who converted all his tries and added a penalty. The Steelers struggled with indiscipline, receiving multiple yellow cards that hindered their momentum. Despite their efforts, Kobe could not reclaim the lead, and the BlueRevs secured the victory in a thrilling encounter. This match marked a continuation of the BlueRevs' dominance over the Steelers after their earlier victory in December.
