Got 74 minutes, in a much needed 2-1 over Fagiano Okayama today.

Gifu were down 0-1 when de Vries subbed off.

Also I note back in September, Gifu had a famous visitor to their club.

Someone familiar to A League fans.

Scores both goals in 2-0 win over JEF United.

Up to now he’d only scored 1 goal in 21 appearances (18 starts)!

Should give his confidence a huge boost. 

Gifu highly likely safe now from relegation being 10 pts above the drop zone, though below teams have games in hand.

Gets 84 mins before being subbed in a 0-1 home loss to Montedio Yamagata.

With two J2 games to go I think is mathematically impossible for Gifu to be relegated.

Hopefully de Vries has done enough, to extend his stay in Japan.

Takes his goal very nicely, breaking from near half way, and shooting into bottom left corner beating the keeper.

Shame, just as he was starting to feature more regularly and was scoring a few goals. Hopefully he has got them measure of the league now and can take it up a notch next year. Not even rooting for him as a potential AW, I simply like to see local kids who played national league go on and do well.

I note Gifu had 58% possession and still lost by 4 goals.

20th or 3rd last, with only 5 goals in 9 games. 

Prior to this game Varen Nagaski had actually been below them on the table!

Gifu (21st or 2nd last) again dominate possession with 57% of the ball.

Good to see De Vries continue to start. But wondering if he is not converting chances, given Gifu keep winning the possession stakes, however still losing.

They have only scored 5 goals in 9 games. De Vries with one.

Is this a new season for Gifu - or are they close to being dropped from Div 2?

God they're a pretty awful team and a perennial struggler in the J2 League. Since it went to a 22 team league in 2012, they've not achieved a finish higher than 17th...

Looks like they'll be fighting for survival again this season. Dead last, although they've got some 28 more games to turn it around.

Good to see De Vries nab himself a goal too, hopefully pushes his case for a spot in the starting XI.

Gifu were 0-2 down when De Vries taken off.

Yet again Gifu dominated the possession stakes with 57% of the ball. Remain last on the table.

Niigata are one of the biggest (if not biggest) club in the J2 League. Spent most of 2000's in J1, and for one season in their heyday averaged homes crowds of 40,000 plus.

Heaps of Brazilians over the years. Thanks Wiki.

Heartbreak for Gifu who concede at 92 mins to lose 2-1 at Omiya Ardija.

Gifu remain last, whilst that win took Ardija for the moment to top of the table.

Tough loss for Gifu.

De Vries got 75 mins before being subbed off. Score 1-1 at that stage.
