Léo Ceará got back on the scoresheet in Matchweek 27 as the Cerezo Osaka man extended his lead in the fight to be the Meiji Yasuda J1 League Top Scorer.

The Brazilian drew a penalty in stoppage time and buried the spot kick for his 17th goal of the season.

The goal ended Léo Ceará’s four-match goalless drought. Elsewhere, Anderson Lopes is doing his part to keep pace with his compatriot, scoring from the spot himself in Yokohama F·Marinos’ 3-1 victory. He is now up to 15 goals on the season, level with Ryo Germain.

Marcelo Ryan is in fourth place with 12 goals, while Yuma Suzuki, Shin Yamada, Lukian and Yuki Ohashi, who has transferred to Blackburn Rovers in England, are tied for fifth place on 11 goals.
