Nadeshiko League Division 2 Fifteenth Round

Fukuoka J. Anclas  1 - 3  AC Nagano Parceiro Ladies
(Attendance: 182)

There would be no slip-up this time for Nagano against Fukuoka, the only team to thus far deny them three points. Uchiyama Tomoka scored her first goal of the season to open the scoring very early, with Sakamoto Riho doubling the lead after fifteen minutes. Fujimoto Yuki pulled a goal back in first half additional time, her third goal in three successive games. With fifteen minutes remaining Nagano made sure of the victory, Noguchi Miya scoring her second of the season, just as Sakamoto had done.

Nojima Stella Kanagawa Sagamihara  0 - 1  Nittaidai Fields Yokohama
(Attendance: 723)

An enormous blow to Nojima's automatic promotion hopes but an equally enormous boost to Nittaidai's chances of again overtaking their neighbours in the race for second place was the result of Nittaidai's fine win today. A goal on twenty-three minutes from Ishii Chiharu, her first since she scored on the opening day, did the damage and unlike in their first meeting there was to be no last gasp comeback from Nojima. The home side are now twelve points off the top and look destined to finish second at best. Nittaidai are now just two points further behind.

AS Harima Albion  3 - 0  Japan Soccer College Ladies
(Attendance: 428)

Harima were never going to have any trouble in beating the JSC and three goals in the first half was all they needed. A first win in five games is welcome relief for the Hyogo side who are sixth. The JSC remain bottom and that is looking increasingly unlikely to change.

Kibi once again took the lead in a match only to concede late on and end up with nothing. Ikejiri Mayu gave the visitors the lead midway through the second half but Miyaji Asuka gave away a penalty eleven minutes later, for which she received her second booking in two games, and three in all games. Akune Mana equalised and with renewed confidence Ehime pushed on and just three minutes later scored the winner, Haruyama Saori with her fourth goal of the season.
