forza Vegalta Sendai!Proper curb stomping this. Excited for the J League on Optus Sport.
Its a good idea to put a J League thread together.forza Vegalta Sendai!
Should advise the mods on the main soccer board to start a J-League thread!
I don't see it that way, yes there is a gulf but Victory defeated Kashima only a couple of weeks ago! and Perth certainly held their own against F.C Tokyo.As fun as this may be, it showcases the gulf in class between the comps, especially given these are the two best teams in their respective leagues.
Its a good idea to put a J League thread together.
Btw All about Cerezo Osaka![]()
Kashima Antlers all the way, remember back in 08 swapping scarfes with one of their supporters. So damn friendly, as are all the Japanese fans.

Just when we are about to peak and win the whole thing tooI can see this whole ACL being canned.
While I think the fear around COVID-19 probably outweighs the risk a little bit, there are too many key countries across Asia that have been affected by it.
I just don't see a way to get this back on track and have the tournament meeting the timeframes that it needs to, especially when countries like Japan and Australia are being so cautious.
We were garbage that last few minutes.FT Sydney FC 2 - Jeonbuck 2
Sucks for Sydney FC conceding a late equalizer.
I'm just sitting here waiting for my eventual refund at this stage. Disappointing but what can you doMore disruptions. Why does this sh*t have to happen when we are finally in the ACL?
