Ryo Germain is still your Meiji Yasuda J1 League Top Scorer leader after a week in which none of the top four found the back of the net.

Júbilo Iwata’s Germain’s four-goal performance in Matchweek 2 continues to pace the league, followed by Sanfrecce Hiroshima’s Yuki Ohashi, FC Tokyo's Ryotaro Araki and Kawasaki Frontale’s Erison, all of whom are on three goals.

There is a six-way tie for fifth place on two goals. Léo Ceará joined the group with his stoppage time goal that propelled Cerezo Osaka to victory, while Yudai Kimura found the back of the net once more for Tokyo Verdy and Masaki Ikeda netted for Shonan Bellmare to get into the two-goal club as well.

It’s only been three weeks, but the fight for Top Scorer is already heating up.
