Nadeshiko League Division 2 Seventeenth Round

Nittaidai Fields Yokohama  3 - 0  Japan Soccer College Ladies
(Attendance: 101)

Nittaidai did what was necessary against a JSC side with little to offer in either defence or attack. Uemura Shoko scored her sixth goal of the season in the first half, with two more for the home side coming not long after the restart, Hirata's fifth of the season followed by a debut goal for Sato Mitsuki, only promoted to the top side before the game. Nittaidai still harbour hopes of a repeat performance from last year, and next week they visit struggling Fukuoka. The JSC host Nojima.

Nojima Stella Kanagawa Sagamihara  4 - 3  Ange Violet Hiroshima
(Attendance: 676)

A twenty-minute four-goal blitz from Nojima was just about enough to see off Ange Violet, who came back with two late goals to cause panic in Sagamihara. The visitors had taken the lead, Katsurama Fumina with her third goal in three games. Nojima's usual goal-scoring suspects then piled on the pressure: Kawashima, Gonno, Oyama and Tanaka in that order before Kuramoto and Yamaguchi began a comeback which wasn't quite enough. Nojima will be very confident of victory in their next match against the JSC, who are bottom. They will hope that Ange Violet can do them a favour against Nagano.

FC Kibikokusaidaigaku Charme  2 - 0  Fukuoka J. Anclas
(Attendance: 390)

Kibi won their fourth game of the season today, all four coming against the bottom two sides. Hamamoto Marin has had a quiet season and she scored just her second goal in first half additional time. Five minutes after the restart Tachibana Rei also scored her second of the season to secure the win. Next week Kibi face the only side above them against whom they have picked up a point: Sfida Setagaya. Fukuoka play Nittaidai.

AS Harima Albion  2 - 2  Sfida Setagaya FC
(Attendance: 448)

Setagaya once again scored a late goal to take a point, this time against Harima who were desperate to win to get themselves back in with a chance of promotion, but that scenario looks highly remote for both sides with ten games remaining. Chiba Sonoko scored both of the hosts' goals, bringing her to ten for the season. Nagata Maya scored her first this season to bring the sides level early in the second half, with Setagaya's second equaliser coming from the same source which won them last week's game, a headed goal from a corner by Tanaka Mariko.

AC Nagano Parceiro Ladies  1 - 0  Ehime FC Ladies
(Attendance: 1,475)

Yokoyama Kumi kept up her tremendous scoring form with the only goal of a tight game in front of another good crowd to keep Nagano well clear on top. Ehime brought Ueno Mami in for her first start of the season and she did produce some efforts on goal, but the home side's defence stood strong and she and her Ehime team mates were unable to find an equaliser. Yokoyama will not be available for Nagano's next game on Sunday against Ange Violet as she has joined the national squad. Ehime host Harima a day earlier.

Hayashizaki Mei, Tanaka Nami (capt), Yajima Yuki, Sakamoto Riho, Noguchi Miya, Hamagaki Kana, Kunisawa Shino, Uchiyama Tomoyo, Makii Kasane, Yokoyama Kumi, Tomari Shiho
