Nadeshiko League Division 2 Third Round

Nittaidai SC Yokohama  2 - 2  AS Harima Albion
(Attendance: 110)

Chiba Sonoko, who was Harima's top scorer last season, gave her side the lead after five minutes with her second of this season but the home team equalised before the half-hour mark through Maeda Risa and looked good for another win when Shimamura Yukiko scored her first league goal to give them the lead. Harima are made of stern stuff and Arihara Aoba, making her first league appearance off the bench, scored with three minutes remaining to rescue a point for the Hyogo side. They play Fukuoka next looking for three points, Nittaidai face a Nagano side in very good form.

Nojima Stella Kanagawa Sagamihara  0 - 6  AC Nagano Parceiro Ladies
(Attendance: 767)

An extraordinary day for Tomari Shiho, as she followed up scoring her first ever league goal last weekend with an incredible six-goal haul against promotion rivals Nojima Stella. The teams were well matched in the first half which Nagano led from the tenth minute, but in the latter half Tomari's goals pulled her side well clear. Leaders Nagano are back at home next weekend, where they play second-placed Nittaidai. Nojima, who are also at home, will be desperate to recover against Kibi.

Japan Soccer College Ladies  1 - 3  Ehime FC Ladies
(Attendance: 135)

Ehime were much too strong for the JSC, with goals from Oya, Kamata and Ueno enough to win this game comfortably. Sasaki Shiori had equalised for the home side, her first goal since rejoining from Nagoya, but it was a false dawn and the Shikoku side ultimately had little difficulty in winning. Ehime welcome Ange Violet next weekend in a more difficult proposition; the JSC travel to Setagaya.

FC Kibikokusaidaigaku Charme  1 - 2  Ange Violet Hiroshima
(Attendance: 541)

Relegated Kibi are still looking for their first win this season, as local neighbours Ange Violet went home with all three points. Two goals in four minutes did the damage, Kando Wakaho with her first goal in league football to give Hiroshima the lead. This was followed up by Katsurama Fumina, who scored six times in 2014. A late reply from Yoshida Mayu was all that Kibi could muster, and they must do better against Nojima next weekend. Ange Violet travel south across the water to Ehime.

(Attendance: 326)

Fukuoka once again lost today and they are looking very likely to be relegated even at this early stage.
