Deer Mentality Tomoki Hayakawa is the embodiment of how Kashima Antlers’ mentality is unbeatable, and what he could bring to the national team.

From J. League Regista:

Kashima #Antlers won (deservedly) the J1 title, but it wouldn't have been possible without Tomoki #Hayakawa's hands 🧤

The keeper is another example of the "deer mentality" pervading Antlers' backbones - a winning culture, at all costs 🦌
