Sagan Tosu (D1) 0-1 Kamatamare Sanuki (D3) after a very late goal. FC Tokyo (D1) 0-1 Yokogawa Musashino (D3). Tokyo were in the AFC Champions League earlier this year. Albirex Niigata (D1) 1-1 Saurcos Fukui (D3). Extra time awaits.
Albirex Niigata (D1) 2-1 Saurcos Fukui (D3) in extra time, as Fukui conceded a penalty, which Niigata converted.
Table for Round 3 6 teams from JFL or Regional Leagues remain and we will definitely see at least one in the top 16 since 2 of them are paired against each other in the 3rd round I'll be cheering for Fukushima United, I better not jinx this one
I guess I was made to eat my words a bit as there were a huge number of upsets this year! Great to see. Still, did anyone care about the J2 vs J2 team results? Anyway it is always great to see the reactions of the players and fans whenever "giant killing" is concerned.. just wish there were more fans in the stands to see it too! Matsu, good to hear your input. Always interesting to see other peoples opinions about this stuff.
Kamatamares hopes for getting into the J2 next year are looking pretty dim, so I would love to see them knock the Reds out of the Cup! Sagawa look like being pretty tricky opponents for JEF too... JEF will be concentrating on J1 promotion, while Sagawa have a close to home game and some good players at their disposal.
! YOKOGAWA MUSASHINO GOLAZO! Shiota was out of place for sure...but still this Keisuke Iwata is a wizard Edit: here you can find many highlights from Tennouhai second round http://footballingtube.blog93.fc2.com/blog-category-1.html
I will be in Japan for the FIFA World Club championship in December. I see there is a round of Emperor's Cup games scheduled for Saturday December 15th. I know there is another round to go so no fixtures yet but hopefully someone could help with some questions. Ideally I'd like to see a game or two in a new stadium for me - I've been to Niigata, Ibaraki, Yokohama, Saitaima, Sendai, Kobe and Osaka during the 2002 World Cup. I will also see a game in Nagoya this time. I will be staying in Tokyo but don't mind travelling. My questions are 1) Are there likely to be any games on Friday December 14th? 2) Will it be easy enough to get tickets for most clubs? 3) When will the draw and fixtures be available for that round? Will it be soon after the October games?
I can answer to you about question n°1 and 3. 1) The 4th round (16 to 8 clubs) will be player on 15th December. 3) The fixtures will be surely available after 10th October, when the third round will be past.
