RUNNING THE METRO

Soccer in central Tokyo
by Rebecca_jp
You can find many soccer fans in this city, just go to Yoyogi Park on sundays and you will find a group of young crazy japanese guys willing to get more people to have a soccer match. If you see a tiny goal in the park is because they are around, you will be always welcome to join.
