advance to final of the 31st All Japan High School Women's Football Championship the semi-finals of the 31st All Japan High School Women's Football Championship took place at Noevir Stadium Kobe The first match between Sakuyo High School (Chugoku 1/Okayama) and Fujieda Junshin High School (Tokai 1/Shizuoka) saw Fujieda Junshin dictate the pace from the outset The Shizuoka side dominated the ball possession while applying plenty of pressure to prevent Sakuyo from initiating counterattacks Sakuyo changed their approach and started to make attempts to deliver long balls into the space behind the opposing defence line it was Fujieda Junshin who capitalised on the next opportunity the shot taken by SHIMOYOSHI Yui ricocheted off a Sakuyo defender before finding the back of the net Sakuyo shifted their system to a three-back formation and utilised their substitutions but couldn’t find ways to score the equaliser as Fujieda Junshin advanced to the final with a 1-0 victory The second match between Jumonji High School (Kanto 1/Tokyo) and Hinomoto Gakuen High School (Kansai 2/Hyogo) saw both teams apply aggressive pressure and engage in fierce battles all over the field Hinomoto Gakuen pursued their passing football while Jumonji attempted to attack down the flanks by elevating their side-backs but both sides ended the first half with few shots on target A golden moment arrived for Hinomoto Gakuen in the 58th minute when TAKAHASHI Ayu was fouled inside the box to earn a spot kick but Jumonji’s HASEGAWA Kokoro made a brilliant save to keep the clean sheet intact as Jumonji broke the deadlock in the 85th minute with the goal of MIYAKE Mahiro Hinomoto Gakuen responded just a minute later when TANAKA Haruna converted a deflection of a shot to send the match into penalties Jumonji’s goalkeeper Hasegawa once again rose to the occasion making two saves to help the Tokyo side advance to the final SHIMOYOSHI Yui (Fujieda Junshin High School)From our scouting report we knew that our opponents were going to seek for their chances to counter us so we were alerted even while we were possessing the ball Our coach has always told me to make conscious efforts to take shots whenever I have a chance I felt very relieved and happy when I heard the final whistle I am happy that I was able to contribute to the team’s victory by scoring a goal Coach (Sakuyo High School)We allowed our opponents to freely build their attacks from the flanks and were out matches in terms of the number of set pieces and shots taken in the first half so a score of 0-0 at the break was within our game plan Although the players showed great concentration in the second half we were unable to capitalise on our opportunities when we had the momentum on our side HASEGAWA Kokoro (Jumonji High School)It was a tough match from the start and we didn’t know what would happen until the very end I was able to keep my composure and did not commit myself until the opponents kicked the ball The fact that I was able to stop a spot kick during the match helped me make those two saves We will continue to communicate and work hard as a team at the final Coach (Hinomoto Gakuen High School)I was very pleased to see our players display the passing football we have worked all year The team really came together a week before the tournament and I think the players have grown a lot since then we also demonstrated our passing football skills but I think this time we were able to do so with much higher quality I believe that if we play our football with all our might throughout the year Tournament Information All Japan High School Women's Football Championship by Year Fujieda Junshin crowned champions for the sixth time - The 31st All Japan High School Women's Football Championship the 31st All Japan High School Women's Football Championship final took place at Noevir Stadium Kobe where Fujieda Junshin High School (Tokai 1/Shizuoka) was crowned as champions for the sixth time The match between Fujieda Junshin and Jumonji High School (Kanto 1/Tokyo) saw the two sides fiercely battle for the ball to take the initiative Jumonji’s MURAYAMA Mami struck a shot from the edge of the box that was headed towards the left corner of the goal but Fujieda Junshin’s goalkeeper KIKUCHI Yuan was there to make a fine save Fujieda Junshin also came close to taking the lead when they struck shots in the 41st and 42nd minutes The second half saw Fujieda Junshin applying even more pressure from the frontline to force turnovers in the opposing territory Jumonji also pressed up their fullbacks to utilise the width of the pitch which led to the opportunity created in the 52nd minute when ASAKA Miyu struck a header off of a cross delivered by NOMURA Ami The deadlock was broken in the 68th minute when Fujieda Junshin’s YAMADA Ayumi forced a turnover near the Jumonji penalty area before sending a cross towards the goal It was MASANO Runa who made the run from the far side superbly controlled the ball to evade the goalkeeper Jumonji used their substitutions to bring in more offensive players but fell short from finding the back of the net as Fujieda Junshin held onto the one goal lead to claim the title Coach (Fujieda Junshin High School)Facing a very strong opponent we were expecting the match to be a close one the players fought very patiently to exploit the opponents’ weaknesses and capitalised on the one opportunity I told Masano that if she kept on working hard for the team the ball will eventually roll towards her way I am very pleased with the efforts the players have put forth to achieve this victory MASANO Runa (Fujieda Junshin High School)I entered today's game with the goal of making plays to help the team win because I haven't been able to score since the first round I've received support and advice from my teammates and coaches to help me get out of this rut I'm grateful beyond words to my teammates for having faith in me despite my struggles Coach (Jumonji High School)We were just a tad short We gave our best to possess the ball and apply pressure from the frontline The injured players also played a key role as assistant coaches to help us reach the final SUGIYAMA Haruna (Jumonji High School)We entered the final with a sense of gratitude and determination With our captains and other key players injured so I was determined to do whatever I can to help the team I am not sure if we were able to leave everything on the pitch but we must try to make the most of this experience in the future Fujieda Junshin capture national title in the All Japan High School Women's Football Championship Fujieda Junshin High School edged Kamimura Gakuen High School 3-2 in the 24th All Japan High School Women's Football Championship on 10 January Fujieda Junshin grabbed their first title in nine years and it was the second-ever championship for them Fujieda Junshin High School (Tokai 1/Shizuoka)   3-2 (1-2 2-0)   Kamimura Gakuen High School(Kyushu 1/Kagoshima) The motivation levels for the championship by both teams were shown from the beginning and IWASHITA Kurumi received the ball in the box and provided a pass to KIMOTSUKI Moe Kimotsuki shed a defender and made a shot into the right side of the goal when WATANABE Rena who trotted into the near side of the goal reacting to a cross from OGAWA Ai from the left side had a heel shot with her left leg into the goal mouth They attacked on the space behind Kamimura Gakuen's defensive line mainly having their offensive plays in the left side Fujieda Junshin players were sharp in reacting to loose balls and quickly tried to get the ball back as soon as their opponents had it Yet it was Kamimura Gakuen who scored the next goal who had moved from the one-top position to the left side dribbled up and fed a cross into the mid field Watanabe scooped a loose ball and fired a shot from a little outside the box The shot went in to put Kamimura Gakuen ahead who played emphasizing on their offence a little more and it widened the distances between their own players Kamimura Gakuen attempted to get the ball at higher spots defensively But Fujieda Junshin's strong will to score prevailed on 60th minute Their vertical pass was once about to be intercepted but they managed to show their toughness in batting for the ball and got it back Kimotsuki reacted to a last pass from Iwashita scored her second goal of the day Kimotsuki continued to do her job afterwards and then provided a perfect pass to right side-back ABE Yukina who was running into the box with a slant route Abe directly put it into the goal to give Fujieda Junshin a 3-2 lead Kamimura Gakuen nearly scored a game-tying goal with an attack from a side in the 63rd minute and attempted to activate their offence making some player substitutions But Fujieda Junshin kept moving their legs and playing with high concentration and wounds up retaining their lead until the final whistle the Fujieda Junshin players bursted into the joy on their title Match details (Japanese version only) Coach (Fujieda Junshin High School)Suppose my expectation for last year's team was a scale 100 it wasn't even the half of it for this year's team I thought that maybe this team wouldn't be able to advance to the national championship I was talking with our staff that we would at least want to go to the national championship and that team wound up winning the championship This team might have had some points that didn't match our last year's team But we had some players who were able to kick the ball precisely so we tried to build a team who could have slow offence and fast offence both Our players made great growth in this past one year Coach (Kamimura Gakuen High School)Against technically-advanced Fujieda Junshin but they were also running and had the strengths competing for the ball And we allowed them to have the ball longer I think that it hurt us like a body blow that we had hard times getting the ball Kamimura Gakuen was a team who came up to this point with their defence so it was a complete loss for us as we gave up three goals today Yet the players didn't change the way of their football KIMOTSUKI Moe (Fujieda Junshin High School)I hurt myself during the summer but I tried to give a payback to our trainer for having given me cares to get the pains away as much as possible everyday it gives you damage in terms of competing for your spot on your team but I thought that working on what I could do would lead to the championship and worked as hard as I could I didn't think of playing the whole game fully but focused on how harder I could play at every moment and played at a full throttle from the beginning I was able to display who I was more than any other games in this tournament but I'm relieved that I did my job in the very final contest HASHITANI Suguri (Kamimura Gakuen High School)I'm very disappointed so thought that playing patiently would be important We were talking to each other that we would switch our mindset even when I give up a goal so my game-tying goal was a result of having rest my mind I learned throughout this tournament that you have to do your best especially when you struggle to come up with positive outcomes I want our younger players to definitely capture a national championship Sun. 3 January 2016 - Sun. 10 January 2016More information Fujieda Junshin and Shizuoka SSU Asregina among the teams advancing through to the second round of the Empress's Cup JFA 43rd Japan Women's Football Championship

Japan High School Women's Soccer Tournament for the second year in a row it was Fujieda Junshin who took the initiative through their spectacular dribbling skills Although Norddea had the advantage in terms of size Fujieda Junshin was able to evade the pressure and score the first goal in the 36th minute the high school side continued to showcase their dominance as they created more opportunities while keeping the Norddea offence at bay After being kept without a single shot in the first half Norddea made two changes during halftime to change the dynamics of the match the Hokkaido side conceded back to back goals to Fujieda Junshin in the second half as MASANO Runa and YAMADA Ayumi each scored a goal to extend the lead Fujieda Junshin won the match 3-0 to reach the second round for the second time in three years The match between Shizuoka SSU Asregina (Tokai/Shizuoka) who finished third in their first year in Nadeshiko League Division 2 and FC Fujizakura Yamanashi (Kanto/

equaliser in the 82nd minute as the match entered penalty shootout to decide which team would advance to the second round After both sides successfully converted their first nine spot kicks Goalkeeper TAKAHASHI Miharu converted the 11th penalty to give Shizuoka the lead before Yamanashi’s eleventh kicker Tsai shanked the ball to the left Coach (Norddea Hokkaido)We knew we were up against a team that would apply high pressure so we had been training to evade that pressure the defence line could not get in good position and kept getting caught we have been focusing on developing our individual abilities in the Nadeshiko Second Division it didn’t translate to the improvement of the overall strength of the team We will strive to achieve better results next season Coach (Fujieda Junshin High School)Now that the team has qualified for the All Japan High School Women's Football Championship there are many third-year players who are showing good performances and I feel that the competition within the team has become more intense We will continue to play against higher-ranked teams at the Empress's Cup but I hope that the players will keep their challenging spirit I want the players to pursue the same level of performance MF #23 FUJIWARA Kana (Shizuoka SSU Asregina)Although we managed to make it through to the second round we are usually a team that can connect the ball so I think we could have played with a little more distance between each other we couldn’t find our rhythm in offence and create good attacks so it is a match we don’t want to lose We will reset our minds ahead of the second round MF #14 NANJO Rio (FC Fujizakura Yamanashi)Although we missed our opportunity to get promoted to the Nadeshiko League this season we wanted to prove the strength of Fujizakura by causing an upset at the Empress’s Cup I entered the match with a strong determination to score goals We were able to play the football we wanted to play and enjoyed the match I feel like this year was a year that I grew the most as a football player Tournament Information Empress's Cup JFA Japan Women's Football Championship by Year JFA Youth & Development Official Partner JFA Youth & Development

three of my fingers in the Kanto Qualifiers and need to play with screws in my fingers Football is a sport you can play at no matter what age you are Chasing a single ball with everyone together is also a good thing I will keep up my work to enjoy the tournament with this team as long as possible OIKAWA Koji (Sunpu Football Club/ Shizuoka)It was more like we lost three points than we got a draw we rather played with mindset "not to give away a goal," and went a bit negative As someone who played in the tournament for over 40 The appeal of football is we can aim to enjoy we can play in various ways such as using strong and weak passes differently KANEMOTO Makoto (Kagawa Senior 50/ Kagawa)We've got to get at least one point The national tournament is fun as expected It's not within the prefecture and Shikoku The advantage of playing here is we can find out the level of ourselves on the national stage through exchanges with teams from other prefectures you can get closer to the level of players who you used to have no chance against I don't have as much stamina as myself in 20's but my controlling skill is still improving I'm happy to touch the ball more than before SONODA

Star Cambodia forward Chan Vathanaka has said any decision on a possible loan move to Japanese side Fujieda MYFC will come after the Toyota Mekong Club Championship Chan Vathanaka’s Metfone C-League club Boeung Ket Angkor has released a statement denying rumours that the Cambodian star is set to join Japanese J3 League club Fujieda MYFC “Boeung Ket Angkor FC would like to reject any speculation that striker Chan Vathanaka has reached personal terms to join Fujieda MYFC,” the statement said to let the player fully focus on his duty at the AFF Suzuki Cup with the Cambodian national team.” Boeung Ket said they wanted to let the star striker dubbed the “Golden Boy of Cambodia” by Fox Sports Asia but the electric forward has said he will not make a decision on any possible move until the completion of the ongoing Suzuki Cup and Boeung Ket’s participation in the Toyota Mekong Club Championship in January “With the training [at Fujieda] my level has improved but now I don’t think about going to Japan – I want to focus on the AFF Suzuki Cup with my national team and Toyota Mekong Club Championship with Boeung Ket Ankgor,” Vathanaka said before leaving for international duty in the Suzuki Cup after returning from a training trip with the Japanese side Boeung Ket coach Be Makara moved to dispel supporters’ fears by insisting there would only be a loan deal on offer if Vathanaka (pictured Sreng Meng Srun) decided to join the Japanese outfit because the club wanted a loan experience purely to further hone the young star’s skills After returning from the week-long training after an invitation from Fujieda said he had many good reasons with which to convince the player to accept the move but reiterated that no deal had yet been reached “Fujieda MYFC will make an official offer to us if Vathanaka decides to join them They really want him and if he agrees to join then they will offer him an apartment a translator and more,” Makara told the Post “Signing with the Japanese club is up to the player and I don’t know if he agrees or not.” midfielder Sarawut Masuk ruined the day for Singapore as his fine header in the 89th minute ensured a 1-0 win for defending
