[Overall Review]
Despite several top players being absent due to concurrent training camps for the under-age national teams, many good matches were played. However, overall, there is a need to improve shooting accuracy in each match. They should emulate the WSL players in terms of not rushing and ensuring the ball shot into the goal frame.
While there were no major changes in the standings, Hiroshima’s attendance of 17,612 is highly noteworthy.
Mei Shimada of Urawa, who was leading the race for top scorer, scored two goals.

[Overall Review]
Shizuoka’s explosive scoring power with 14 shots was stopped by Iga’s defense, resulting in a 0-0 draw. Nagoya conceded three goals in the first half, which is unusual for them. Setagaya may be on the verge of recovery. Conversely, Yunogo having had won two consecutive matches suffered an unexpected heavy defeat. Miyazaki secured a solid away victory. Yokohama Seagull’s manager Emi Yamamoto won a match for the first time. As her old fan I would say congratulations.
Mizuki Horie, Misuzu Uchida, and Momoka Oka each scored two goals. Yuzuki Tsuchiya, another my favorite, also scored two goals, but these were her first since her transfer.
Match1 (3/28): Setagaya 5-0 Yunogo at Komazawa Olympic Park General Sports Ground Athletics Stadium
Setagaya’s goals: M. Horie (26’, 69’), Y. Arakawa (46’), M. Uchida (66’, 75’)
