Sanfrecce played Avispa Fukuoka in a charity match today at the Big Arch. Actually it was two games, with pretty much everyone on Sanfrecce's roster making an appearance (~28 players total). The first 90 minute match ended 2-0 to Sanfrecce, the second 90 minutes 0-1 to Avispa. link Also I saw tweetings that Sagan Tosu and Roasso Kumamoto played at the Best Amenity Stadium today. link
