Vissel Kobe scored twice against the run of play Sunday to snatch a 2-1 comeback victory against Yokohama F. Marinos in the J. League.
Second-half substitute Kazuma Watanabe netted the winner in the 79th minute shortly after his teammate Hirotaka Mita equalized at Yokohama's Nissan Stadium on an afternoon when the home side dominated possession and chances but came up short on the scoreboard.
For extended periods, Marinos exhibited the entertaining, possession-based soccer that made first-year head coach Ange Postecoglou one of the most successful managers of all time in the Australian domestic league, but their lack of finishing showed they are still a work in progress.
