Ehime F.C. is a professional football (soccer) club based in Matsuyama, the capital city of Ehime Prefecture of Japan. After winning the JFL championship in 2005, the club now plays in J. League division 2. Ehime F.C. is one of only four J. League clubs whose names simply consist of a place name and "F.C." without eclectic nicknames. The other three are F.C. Tokyo, Yokohama F.C. and newly promoted F.C. Gifu.
[edit] History
The club was founded in 1970 as Matsuyama Soccer Club and renamed itself as Ehime Football Club in 1995. It was promoted to the Japan Football League in 2003. After winning the JFL championship in 2005, Ehime now plies its trade in J. League Division 2.
On November 28, 2007, Ehime pulled off a major shock by consigning the Urawa Red Diamonds, the AFC Champions League 2007 winners, to a fourth-round exit from the Emperor's Cup courtesy of a 2-0 win on Urawa's home soil. [1]
