FC Kibikokusaidaigaku Charme 0 - 1 Sfida Setagaya FC (1-1 on aggregate aet)
FC Kibikokusaidaigaku Charme win 5-4 on penalties
(Attendance: 872)
Kibi made one change for their final home game of the season, bringing in their top scorer Hamamoto Marin for Kurakazu Shiho. Setagaya, who were desperate to improve from their home loss, brought in Kawashima Tamai and Tanaka Mariko, with Shano Miki and Usuda Haruka dropping to the bench. Kibi did most of the attacking in the first half, with good chances for Shigemasa Kai and Takahashi Chiho just going wide the closest they came. Setagaya improved defensively, repeatedly catching Kibi's attackers offside and the home side couldn't find the breakthrough. In the second half Setagaya came out strongly and Tanaka Marina scored in the fiftieth minute to level the tie on aggregate. Both sides now knew that one goal would be enough, but neither could find it. Setagaya did more of the attacking but their shots were wayward for the most part, though they did hit the woodwork on occasion. Inevitably the game went into twenty minutes of extra time, and then to a penalty shoot-out. Setagaya went first, and it was Kawashima who struck their first penalty against the post. Kibi missed none of theirs and it was defender Kamata Ran who scored the final decisive penalty to win the tie and keep her side in the Nadeshiko League for another sesaon. Setagaya fought hard, especially considering their poor performance at home last weekend, and will have to try again in what will be another extremely competitive Challenge League. For their part, Kibi will hope to attract talented schoolgirls to the university for the start of next season.
