A dramatic last-minute strike from substitute Yasushi Endoh saw Kashima Antlers fight back from a goal down to beat Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors 2-1 at Jeonju World Cup Stadium.

A beautifully crafted goal just before the break from Brazilian star Eninho gave Jeonbuk a first-half lead but Koji Nakata equalised midway through the second period before Endoh snatched the win with just seconds remaining.

The first opening came after 5 minutes as Lee Dong-guk burst into the area from the right side but his low shot was saved by the feet of Hitoshi Sogahata.

Just before the break however, Jeonbuk took the lead with the best passage of play in the opening 45 minutes.

Both teams pushed for the winner and it duly came at the end of 90 minutes for Kashima.

Mitsuo Ogasawara fed Endoh – who had only been on the pitch for five minutes – and the substitute slotted the ball past Kwon from just inside the area.
