Albirex Niigata Ladies 7 - 0 FC Kibikokusaidaigaku Charme
(Attendance: 637)
Niigata had no trouble in beating Kibi - still without a point - though even they cannot have imagined just how easy it would be. Kibi were relatively well organised in the opening twenty minutes, but once they conceded the first goal there would be no way back. Saito Yuri was the scorer of the first, Yamazaki Marumi scored the second ten minutes later and four minutes after the second goal Saeki Aya scored the third, and the game was won by half-time.
All three women would score again in the second half, Yamazaki finishing off her hat-trick in additional time. Kibi's main problem is keeping possession of the ball in midfield and without the possibility of bringing in new players mid-season, relegation seems a certainty.
Kibi welcome Iga next weekend, with Niigata travelling to southern Miyagi to play Vegalta Sendai.

JEF United Ichihara Chiba Ladies 3 - 1 AS Elfen Saitama
(Attendance: 891)
Like Kibi, Saitama look destined to be one of the four sides battling relegation at the end of the season and they know that they will have to pick up as many points as possible in the Regular Series to give them a chance of staying up.
The visitors had the best possible start when Ito Kanako scored her third of the season to give Saitama the lead, beating the offside trap off a through pass. The lead lasted barely a minute, Kawamura putting the ball away with the Saitama defence hesitant. Three minutes later JEF United had the lead, Ueno Saki producing a superb pass for Ikadai Risa who chested the ball well before beating both Takahashi and Yamago to finish.
The victory was made certain in the 83rd minute, Sugasawa Yuika heading in Kamogawa's cross following fine play by Hosaka.
Having looked poor in their opening game, JEF United have been something of a revelation, and sit fourth in the table, though they have a much sterner test next weekend when they play leaders Urawa. Saitama are at home to Belle in another difficult challenge.

Nippon TV Beleza 0 - 2 Urawa Red Diamonds Ladies
(Attendance: 2,463)
Beleza have been extremely poor this season and have had trouble in particular in finding the net - five of their nine goals came in the opening match. Urawa have been better than expected and so this 2-0 win for the away side, for whom this was almost geographically a home game, was not a surprise.
The opening goal came six minutes into the second half, Kira Chinatsu poking home after Beleza goalkeeper Soyama Kanako failed to hold onto Usui's cross. Beleza had controlled the play in the second half and this will have come as a huge blow to their confidence.
Seike Kiko, who was promoted to the senior squad just a matter of weeks ago, quickly made a name for herself and she scored her second career goal with eight minutes remaining, and having just made her entrance to the game. Urawa broke well and Kishikawa found Seike free on the right, and the youngster showed tremendous compsosure to score.
Beleza have now lost three consecutive games and must travel to Kobe on Sunday with more belief. Urawa host JEF United.

Iga FC Kunoichi 0 - 1 INAC Kobe Leonessa
(Attendance: 2,103)
Both sides came into this game having fallen behind the leaders to the extent that a win for either side would not be enough to move them up the table. Iga were in greater need, in the knowledge that they are the more likely to end the Regular Series in the bottom four.
The home side were the more lively in the opening exchanges and showed good passing and movement but their shooting was wayward, INAC looked to the physicality of Takase and the technique of Masuya to create openings, though few presented themselves.
Ogawa Shiho has the best chance after nineteen minutes when Miyake showed dreadful hesitation at the back, but she rushed her shot which went just wide. To this point Iga had attacked almost exclusively down their left though their next chance came down the right, Ogawa again causing trouble which led to a corner kick. That chance came to nothing and at the other end Kyokawa found space for her first real chance to attack but her cross was headed badly wide by Takase.
Miyake was again badly at fault at the back after a break for drinks but Ogawa again failed to make the most of the opportunity. INAC were looking better going forward than in defence, and Nakajima and Masuya were their standout players, though with the half progressing neither side had forced either goalkeeper into making a significant save.
There were but a few more chances for both sides before half-time, but the most significant feature in both teams' minds will have been Miyake's inability to keep pace with Ogawa.
Neither side made any substitutions at half-time and the pattern of the game continued as before. Ito Miki was introduced ten minutes in, replacing Masuya, and she moved to her normal left wing position. Takase was also playing mostly on the left though she wasn't doing particularly well, shooting poorly when on most occasions.
Kobayashi Makiko was Iga's first substitute to come on, replacing Haji in the 65th minute. For INAC Sawa had made more of an impression in an attacking sense and created some openings for her forwards, though they weren't capitalising. At the back they continued to look hesitant and Iga felt that with enough opportunities they would eventually find the goal. Nakada Ayu came on for Kyokawa in the 70th minute as INAC again looked to expand their attacking options.
Sugita Ami had Iga's best chance of the game in the 72nd minute when her volley just in front of goal was just tipped over by Kaihori. Nakajima received a yellow card for a poor challenge on Nasu in the 75th minute, as Iga continued to exert pressure on the INAC goal.
Minamiyama Chiaki found the net somewhat fortuitoulsy, with nice interplay between herself, Noguchi and Takase leading up to the score. Minamiyama shot towards goal and with Nakada and defender Miyasako both missing the ball, Sawada was confused and it rolled over the line almost apologetically. Sugita nearly equalised at the other end moments later but Kaihori did well to parry the shot away.
Tsutsumi came off for Sonomura with eight mintes remaining as the home side desperately sought an equaliser, with Isokane receiving a booking for wasting time. In the end Iga didn't have the quality in front of goal, and have now lost their fourth game of the season. They will expect to win next week against Kibi, but the gap to the top six sides may be too great to close. INAC Kobe are at home next week to Beleza, who are struggling very badly this season.

Okayama Yunogo Belle 2 - 1 Vegalta Sendai Ladies
(Attendance: 2,348)
Belle have slowly made their way up the table and now sit second after coming from behind to beat Vegalta Sendai at home today. When the Belle defence failed to clear an Uetsuji corner kick to touch, she was on hand to swing another cross in and Yasumoto Sawako headed in past Fukumoto. Belle have come from behind well this year, and it took just fifteen minutes for Matsuoka Miki to find the equaliser, Arimachi and Miyama combining in midfield before the latter produced a fine pass down the middle for Matsuoka to run onto, and she lobbed Saita in the Vegalta goal for her sixth goal of the season.
Six minutes from half time Belle took the lead, and again Matsuoka was the scorer, Arimachi doing all the hard work in beating defenders down the right before pulling the ball back for Matsuoka who had the simplest of tap-ins.
Both sides slowed down in the second half in the summer heat, though Belle continued to create chances but the score remained 2-1 and Vegalta suffered only their second defeat of the season. They host Niigata in Kakuda on Sunday, with both sides on thirteen points. Belle will expect another win in Saitama to go with their impressive victory over Urawa.

Cerezo Osaka Sakai Ladies 1 - 1 Japan Soccer College Ladies
(Attendance: 248)
Cerezo Osaka won their first point of the season to their great relief against the JSCL today. Kusakari Ayako scored her third goal of the season to give the visitors the lead after twenty minutes, heading in a Nakashima corner. After an astonishing scramble at the other end in the 27th minute, Yagata Miyu equalised with her first goal since the opening weekend.
Having struggled this season to contain the opposition, the Cerezo players will have been delighted to hold on for their first point, and will target another when they play the JFA Academy next weekend. The JSCL host Ange Violet Hiroshima.

Nittaidai Football Club Ladies 1 - 1 Shizuoka Sangyo University Iwata Bonita
(Attendance: 50)
The smallest crowd of the season watched Nittaidai retake the top spot in the division with a home draw against fellow students Shizuoka Sangyo in Yokohama today. The home side took a 1-0 lead into half-time, Maeda Risa scoring her third of the season. A mistake in the Nittaidai defence allowed Oda Kanna to equalise with seventeen minutes remaining - the fourth of the season for one of the few non-students on the team.
Shiuzoka are still well off the pace in eleventh, while Nittaidai are likely to surrender the top spot following tomorrow's games. They play local rivals Setagaya next weekend, with Shizuoka at home to Bunnys, who are one point behind them.

Ange Violet Hiroshima 1 - 1 AC Nagano Parceiro Ladies
(Attendance: 688)
One of four 1-1 draws in the Challenge League this weekend, with Nagano slipping down the table to fifth as a result. Enya Mari headed in from a Takeda corner after eight minutes, but two minutes later Nagano equalised through Uchiyama Tomoka, her second in two games. Worrying news for Nagano fans was the absence of Yokoyama Kumi, the league's top scorer. They may well need her for the visit of leaders Takatsuki next week. Ange Violet travel to Niigata to face the JSCL.

(Attendance: 316)
Two weeks ago Nojima conceded a very late goal to surrender all three points to Takatsuki today they inflicted the same heartbreak on Harima in Sagamihara. The visitors took the lead in the first half, Kibi graduate Murakami Saki scoring her second goal in two games. Midway through the second half Yoshimi Natsuki scored her seventh of the season, this time from the penalty spot to even things up. Nojima continued to press for a winning goal and in the third minute of additional time substitute Kawarazaki Nozomi finished off following a failed defensive clearance to give her side all three points as they climb into the top four.

Fukuoka J. Anclas 2 - 6 Tokiwagi Gakuen High School
(Attendance: 203)
Fukuoka took an early two-goal lead against Tokiwagi Gakuen, but could not have expected how well the champions would respond, and a six-goal onslaught moves Tokiwagi back into the top half while Fukuoka slip to twelfth.
Fujimoto and Doshita were Fukuoka's scorers, though by half-time Tokiwagi had taken the lead, Shiraki scoring twice with Kobayashi Nanako - with her first league goal - giving the visitors a lead they built on in the second half. Nishikawa, Suhihara and Kobayashi Rikako added the three second-half goals. Tokiwagi Gakuen have a week off next weekend, and don't play again until the 14th. Fukuoka travel to Himeji to play Harima.

Ehime FC Ladies 1 - 2 Sfida Setagaya FC
(Attendance: 220)
Kubo Ayano was recently brought into the Setagaya first team and she justified her selection in the starting eleven today when she gave her side the lead on 21 minutes, finishing off from a left-sided cross from Sunoki Yurie. Nagasawa Yume made the game safe nine minutes from time when she headed in from a Hasegawa cross, again from the left where Setagaya found a lot of space to work with. Watai Shiori scored a late goal to frighten Setagaya, but it was far too late for a comeback and Setagaya thus move into second in the table ahead of their meeting with Nittaidai. Ehime have a week off.

Ange Violet Hiroshima 1 - 1 AC Nagano Parceiro Ladies
(Attendance: 688)
One of four 1-1 draws in the Challenge League this weekend, with Nagano slipping down the table to fifth as a result. Enya Mari headed in from a Takeda corner after eight minutes, but two minutes later Nagano equalised through Uchiyama Tomoka, her second in two games. Worrying news for Nagano fans was the absence of Yokoyama Kumi, the league's top scorer. They may well need her for the visit of leaders Takatsuki next week. Ange Violet travel to Niigata to face the JSCL.

Nojima Stella Kanagawa Sagamihara 2 - 1 AS Harima Albion
(Attendance: 316)
Two weeks ago Nojima conceded a very late goal to surrender all three points to Takatsuki today they inflicted the same heartbreak on Harima in Sagamihara. The visitors took the lead in the first half, Kibi graduate Murakami Saki scoring her second goal in two games. Midway through the second half Yoshimi Natsuki scored her seventh of the season, this time from the penalty spot to even things up. Nojima continued to press for a winning goal and in the third minute of additional time substitute Kawarazaki Nozomi finished off following a failed defensive clearance to give her side all three points as they climb into the top four.

Fukuoka J. Anclas 2 - 6 Tokiwagi Gakuen High School
(Attendance: 203)
Fukuoka took an early two-goal lead against Tokiwagi Gakuen, but could not have expected how well the champions would respond, and a six-goal onslaught moves Tokiwagi back into the top half while Fukuoka slip to twelfth.
Fujimoto and Doshita were Fukuoka's scorers, though by half-time Tokiwagi had taken the lead, Shiraki scoring twice with Kobayashi Nanako - with her first league goal - giving the visitors a lead they built on in the second half. Nishikawa, Suhihara and Kobayashi Rikako added the three second-half goals. Tokiwagi Gakuen have a week off next weekend, and don't play again until the 14th. Fukuoka travel to Himeji to play Harima.

Ehime FC Ladies 1 - 2 Sfida Setagaya FC
(Attendance: 220)
Kubo Ayano was recently brought into the Setagaya first team and she justified her selection in the starting eleven today when she gave her side the lead on 21 minutes, finishing off from a left-sided cross from Sunoki Yurie. Nagasawa Yume made the game safe nine minutes from time when she headed in from a Hasegawa cross, again from the left where Setagaya found a lot of space to work with. Watai Shiori scored a late goal to frighten Setagaya, but it was far too late for a comeback and Setagaya thus move into second in the table ahead of their meeting with Nittaidai. Ehime have a week off.

Challenge League Eighth Round
Tokiwagi Gakuen High School 0 - 3 Nojima Stella Kanagawa Sagamihara
(Attendance: 250)
Three goals in the opening half an hour were enough for Nojima as they held out against a Tokiwagi side which try as they might, could not find a goal to get themselves back into the game. Yoshimi Natsuki, who scored Nojima's only goal on their visit to Miyagi last year - in a game which resulted in a 6-1 loss for the visitors - once again found the target from a free kick positioned just outside the area. That goal came in the 6th minute and was Yoshimi's sixth of the season. Nojima's latter two goals were both scored by Omiya Reona - her first goals in the league since graduation from Waseda University.
Nojima are now four points off the top, and next weekend face Harima, who are one point and one place above them. Tokiwagi make the long journey to Fukuoka.

AC Nagano Parceiro Ladies 7 - 2 Cerezo Osaka Sakai Ladies
(Attendance: 302)
Though Uchiyama Tomoka gave Nagano the lead early in their encounter with Cerezo Osaka, their young opponents went into the lead after 36 minutes, with Nishida and Matsubara both scoring. Nagano recovered quickly, Uchiyama Tomoyo equalising just before half-time. In the second half it was no contest, as Nagano added five more, aided somewhat by Cerezo making five substitutions which unsettled the team. Hashiura, Yajima and Hamagaki's goals - one each - were added to by a brace from the league's top scorer, Yokoyama Kumi.
Nagano's next game is away to Ange Violet and they will hope to have enough to secure victory; Cerezo have a huge game against their relegation rivals the JSCL, who are seven points ahead of them.
