Footballer who has played one - 1 - game of his sport. There is no demonstrated coverage in non-statistic sources, nor is any coverage likely given his totally peripheral role in football. There is a crystal-clear consensus to delete footballers with only 1 appearance and no coverage, for instance here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here and here, and I could have gone on further.

Delete Unless there is some evidence he has played more football than this, delete per nom. Govvy (talk) 13:19, 19 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - scraping by on NFOOTBALL is insufficient when GNG is failed. Giant Snowman 18:35, 19 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - unless sources come to light, going into depth about his two appearances or why he only made two appearances, then the only option is to delete as per a complete failure to meet GNG Spiderone 10:46, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Hirakawa made two professional appearances in 2010, not one. Davidlofgren1996 (talk) 11:21, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I would still argue that the AfD is still valid. Two appearances is still only a borderline NFOOTY pass so the fact that it fails GNG massively is still a relevant point Spiderone 08:14, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Eh, fair enough. I’d like to know the consensus for how many pro appearances it takes to pass WP:NFOOTY without passing WP:GNG though. Davidlofgren1996 (talk) 14:35, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I too would like to know. As far as I know, there hasn't been a clear line drawn yet but I'm happy to be proved wrong. Spiderone 17:38, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Despite passing WP:NFOOTY, the article fails WP:GNG which is the bigger part of the two here. HawkAussie (talk) 07:43, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
