Japan 1995 Second Level (Football League)
=========================================

The last round of the 1995 JFL season was played on Sunday 29 October
1995. The ending of the season was dramatic: Fukuoka Blux, who had led
the league from the very first day, slumped toward the end and took
until round 29 to finally secure J.League promotion. Kyoto Purple
Sanga also secured promotion in the same round, so that that aspect of
the race was settled early. But the championship remained undecided,
and when Kyoto beat Fujitsu and Fukuoka went down to NTT in postponed
21st-round games (which were played after round 29), Kyoto suddenly
rose to the top of the standings! With only one game to go, Fukuoka
surrendered the lead for the first time this season: Kyoto needed only
to win to secure the championship. Then in the last game Kyoto lost,
in overtime to last-place Seinoh Transports, Fukuoka won and they
claimed the championship after all... Tosu Futures were in the running
for a promotion spot until the 29th round, but in fact their PK loss
to Kyoto in round 27 rendered their chances mathematical and they went
into a tailspin after that, losing their 4 last. They even surrendered
the third spot in the rankings to non-J.League member Tokyo Gas.

The promotion of Fukuoka Blux and Kyoto Purple Sanga to the J.League
will be official once it is approved by the J.League's executive
committee, which meets next week I think. Fukuoka will have to learn
to win in overtime if they want to survive in the J.League: they never
managed the feat a single time this season. Some other news items:

* Fukuoka Blux will change their name before entering the J.League. It
seems that "Blux" existed as a registered trade mark or something, so
they will be known from next year as Avispa Fukuoka. What on earth is
an Avispa, you may ask; well, it seems it's Spanish for a hornet or
wasp. It also seems the team will fire their coach Orgin (sp?) and
hire a Japanese coach; apparently they've already decided on Hidehiko
Shimizu, coach of the Yokohama Marinos until last year. Rumour has it
that Orgin did not get along with his players at all.
* Brummel Sendai have applied for J.League associate membership; if
they are accepted, then the J.League will have three associate members
in the JFL next year, Brummel, Tosu Futures (also to be renamed?) and
Vissel Kobe. Brummel are going to have to work hard to satisfy the
last condition for J.League promotion: to end in first or second place
in the JFL. They ended second from bottom this year.
* Former Japan National Team goalkeeper Shigetatsu Matsunaga is making
no promises to his current team Tosu Futures now that they have failed
to win J.League promotion. Rumours abound about other teams that would
want to contract him: Avispa Fukuoka, Kashiwa Reysol, Shimizu
S-Pulse... Kyoto seem to be quite happy with their goalie, Shin'ichi
Morishita, who became the first player to help two teams gain
promotion to the J.League (he was with Jubilo until last year).
* Vissel Kobe will become the first Japanese club team (since the
start of the J.League) to perform on North American soil when they
meet the Seattle Sounders on 19 November in Seattle. The match is
intended as a charity match for victims of the Kobe Earthquake in
January. After the match it seems Vissel will go on to Canada to play
either the Canada National Team or the Canada Olympic Team (not sure).

The JFL results and other details are regularly posted (in Japanese)
