Sagamihara are returning here after visiting Ehime in a J2-League game and winning with a 2-1 scoreline. Y. Nakayama scored the goal(s). The victory against Ehime came after Y. Nakayama's winning goal. The Sagamihara manager T. Takagi was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 70th minute. Some amazing scenes last match, when Y. Nakayama scored the winning goal six minutes into stoppage time.
