Kashiwa Reysol ( Japanese:柏 レ イ ソ ル) is a Japanese professional football club and currently plays in the J2 League , the second highest division of Japanese football. The club, which emerged from a factory team of the Hitachi group and plays its home games at the Hitachi Kashiwa Soccer Stadium in Kashiwa ( Chiba Prefecture ), was one of the most successful clubs in the country in the mid-1970s. In 2011 the club managed to win the J. League for the first time as a climber .

Club history

Reysol was founded in 1940 as Hitachi Ltd. Soccer club in the city of Koganei , a suburb of Tokyo . In 1966, just one year after the founding of the first national soccer league, the Japan Soccer League , the team moved to their current location in Kashiwa. Hitachi experienced its most successful period there in the mid-1970s: with a championship title and two victories in the Imperial Cup , they were among the best teams in the country alongside Yanmar Diesel (now Cerezo Osaka ) and Mitsubishi (now Urawa Red Diamonds ). This fame soon faded, however, so that the club no longer played a major role in the early 1990s when the establishment of a professional league was agreed.

Although Hitachi was not present at the premiere of the J. League, the professionalization of the football department continued: the club was re-established in 1992 under the name Kashiwa Reysol and given a new coat of arms and mascot. The name Reysol is derived from the Spanish words rey ( king ) and sol ( sun ), a hidden reference to Hitachi (日立), which is written with the character 日 (sun). Unlike most other clubs, the group also remained the sole owner and main sponsor of the club.

In order to achieve promotion to the J. League, the Brazilian international Careca was signed by SSC Napoli in the same year , who soon became the star of the league. So it was mainly Careca's credit that Reysol (together with Cerezo Osaka) finally rose to the J. League in 1995, which the club only had to leave again ten years later.

There, however, the club has so far not been able to build on the successful years in the 70s: only a victory in the Yamazaki Nabisco Cup (the Japanese league cup ) in 1999 and a second place in the second half of 2000 (a victory and thus participation in the championship final was only missed due to a defeat on the last match day) are on the books for the club and in recent years Kashiwa had to fight relegation more and more.

In 2005, the Hitachi managers succeeded in gaining top-class access: França was signed by Bayer 04 Leverkusen for 2.5 million euros . Nevertheless, Reysol landed on the 16th of 18 places and had to be relegated to the second division Ventforet Kofu . There they were surprisingly clearly defeated by 1: 2 and 2: 6. Thus, Kashiwa played in the second division in 2006.

In 2006, many regular players such as Tomokazu Myōjin , Mitsuru Nagata , Kishō Yano , Yukio Tsuchiya , Yasuhiro Hato and Keiji Tamada left the club, and so the team had to be rebuilt. Kashiwa broke the contract with Hiroshi Hayano and signed Nobuhiro Ishizaki as the new coach. For the coming season, in which Kashiwa reached second place and thus secured the return to the first division, Yūta Minami was declared captain.

The 2007 season turned out to be surprising: Kashiwa started on the first match day against Júbilo Iwata with a 4-0 win and was able to stay at the top of the league in the following time. Goalkeeper Yuta Minami managed an outstanding record of 17 games without conceding a goal, which u. a. led to the fact that the club took a successful eighth place after 34 match days and thus secured the league's whereabouts.

In 2008, however, the success achieved in the previous year should not be repeated, although it looked relatively good at the beginning. Because on the 15th matchday the team was in third place, but couldn't win a game for two and a half months. This meant that the distance to a relegation place was only three points, and to a relegation place four points. But on the 28th matchday the turning point followed, when they brought in a 0-4 away win against Ōmiya Ardija . The newcomer Yūsuke Murakami achieved something extraordinary in this game, because he was only the second player after Zico to score a hat trick on his debut. Ultimately, an average, but again league-preserving eleventh place in the season succeeded. In addition, Reysol reached the final of the Emperor's Cup, but they lost 0-1 after extra time against Gamba Osaka . In the 2009 season, Reysol was relegated to the second division, and in 2010 the club achieved direct promotion to the J. League as champions .

In the 2011 season, the club surprisingly won the championship title in the J. League. Until the last matchday, a trio of the three teams Nagoya Grampus , Gamba Osaka and Reysol were almost equal on points in the top three places in the table. Reysol was only one point ahead of second Nagoya Grampus and two points ahead of Gamba Osaka. But since all three teams won on the last day of the game, nothing changed in this position and Reysol became champions after a 3-1 win against the Urawa Red Diamonds . This was the first time in the history of the J. League a club was champions in the first division after winning the second division in the next season. By winning the championship, Kashiwa Reysol was also qualified as the hosting team for the 2011 FIFA Club World Cup in Japan.

At the Club World Cup, Reysol played in the opening game against the representatives of Oceania, Auckland City FC , and won this game 2-0. The team met the North American representative CF Monterrey from Mexico in the quarter-finals . At the end of regular time, after Leandro Domingues had scored the 1-0 lead for Reysol, it was 1: 1. Extra time went goalless, so the game was decided on penalties . After goalkeeper Kashiwas, Sugeno, parried a penalty and a Mexican hit the post, Reysol won the penalty shoot-out 4-3. In the semifinals, however, the team lost 1: 3 against the Brazilian FC Santos . Thus, in the game for 3rd place there was a purely Asian duel, in which Kashiwa faced the Qatari Al-Sadd , who had qualified as the winner of the AFC Champions League. After no goals were scored either in regular time or in extra time, there was another penalty shoot-out. Here the Qatari goalkeeper Saqr managed to parry Ryōhei Hayashi 's shot. With all other shooters converting, Kashiwa lost the penalty shootout 3-5. The team finished fourth in the end.
