Football: Hatate scores 1st goal as Kamada goes off injured
LONDON - Japan midfielder Reo Hatate scored his first goal of the season for Celtic in their 2-0 win away to Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership on Sunday, while Daichi Kamada of Crystal Palace went off injured in the English Community Shield. Hatate opened the season's account through the eye of a needle in the 66th minute, taking a touch to control a pass from the right at the edge of the box before curling a shot to the near top corner and in off the bar for a 2-0 lead. Benjamin Nygren's 27th-minute volley gave the lead for Celtic, who sent on their new Japanese forward, Shin Yamada, after Hatate's goal. In England, Kamada came off in the 29th minute as Crystal Palace edged Liverpool 3-2 on penalties after a 2-2 draw in the season's curtain raiser at Wembley Stadium. Hugo Ekitike struck through Kamada's legs to give reigning Premier League champions Liverpool the lead in the fourth minute, while the Japan midfielder played a fine through ball in the build-up to FA Cup winners Palace, winning a 17th-minute penalty buried by Jean-Philippe Mateta. Jeremie Frimpong's apparent cross went straight into the net in the 21st minute before Kamada went off with a right knee injury. Liverpool sent on Japan captain Wataru Endo in the 71st minute, but Ismaila Sarr steered home off the post in the 77th minute to again draw Palace level before a shootout win. "I think it's not that bad, but I can't tell until I have it checked," Kamada said as Palace ready themselves for their Premier League opener away to Chelsea next Sunday. Manager Oliver Glasner said Kamada's setback does not look "that serious, but it could be that he misses maybe one or two games."

'They are cautiously awaiting the outcome of the upper house election, while the outlook of the trade talks between is not clear even as the deadline approaches.' A defeat of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party and its coalition partner Komeito in the election on July 20 could empower opposition parties that have pledged to cut or abolish the sales tax.
