Brave Lupus Tokyo vs Shizuoka BlueRevs head to head

Toshiba Brave Lupus Tokyo edged Shizuoka BlueRevs 35-29 in a highly competitive match. Shizuoka started strong, with Sangster scoring an early try followed by a conversion from Okumura. However, Toshiba responded quickly, with Ishioka and Naikabula both crossing the line, and Matsunaga adding penalties to build a solid lead. Tuitama's late first-half try for Shizuoka kept the contest tight, but Toshiba's Naikabula scored again after the break, extending their advantage. As the match progressed, Shizuoka fought back, with Tuitama scoring his second try, but it wasn't enough to secure a win. Matsunaga's kicking was instrumental for Toshiba, contributing crucial points throughout the game. The victory marked an important turnaround for Toshiba after previous losses to Shizuoka in earlier encounters.
