Naoki Wako scored an 86th-minute header to give Kashiwa Reysol a roller-coaster 3-2 win over Avispa Fukuoka on Saturday.
Reysol looked to be in complete control after Kosuke Taketomi had given them a sixth-minute lead at Hitachi Stadium, only for Avispa to stun the home side with two goals from Takahiro Kunimoto and Hisashi Jogo within the space of three second-half minutes.
But the tide turned again when Diego Oliveira brought Kashiwa level with an equalizer in the 80th minute, before midfielder Wako got on the end of a Junya Ito cross to secure all three points for the Chiba side with four minutes remaining.
