Vanraure Hachinohe took the points with a 2-0 win over Kataller Toyama in J.League 2, Yuta Sato scoring both goals. The home side struck early and then added a second shortly after the restart to control the contest.
Sato was booked in the fifth minute but made the perfect response a minute later, putting Hachinohe ahead. He doubled the lead in the 47th minute, right after the interval, and Toyama never found a way back.
Sato was the decisive figure, with his two goals settling the match. Shosei Okamoto and Riki Matsuda were both booked in the second half, but the scoreline never looked in doubt once Hachinohe had their second.
