Nadeshiko League Division 2 Eighteenth Round

Ehime FC Ladies  1 - 1  AS Harima Albion
(Attendance: 177)

A lead goal for Sato Rina for Harima, her sixth of the season, was cancelled out in the second half by Oya Ayumi, for whom this was a seventh goal of 2015. Neither side will have been happy with a draw, and neither looks likely now to make an impact on the promotion race. Ehime have an early chance to make an impression next weekend away to Nittaidai, while Harima are not back in action until September.

Japan Soccer College Ladies  1 - 7  Nojima Stella Kanagawa Sagamihara
(Attendance: 145)

A hat-trick for Tanaka Yoko was the highlight for Nojima as they ran riot in Niigata, cementing their second place in the table, still well behind Nagano but with a five-point gap back to Nittaidai. The home side's only reply was from an own goal and the longer the season goes on the more likely it becomes that they will finish bottom and be relegated. They next play in September but Nojima are back in action on August 22nd against Setagaya.
