Real!!, Barca!!!, Valencia.



Three Spanish clubs joined in Japan.
Real Madrid 4 - Tokyo Verdy 0: Incredible Zidane's turn brought mid summer night's dream.
Barcelona 5 - Kashima Antlers 0: Ronaidinho blew off Kashima in National Stadium.
Valencia 2 - Albirex Niigara 5: But, they are still in vacance...

Japanese soccer-fans enjoyed so much, but I wonder what are these matches for? In Niigata, home supporters welcomed the visitor, but in the National Std Kashima wore 2nd shirt for Barca and in Real match there are very few who support the home Tokyo Verdy. This day more than 13 thousands of attendance come to the stadium and they include many first timers. Will soccer market in Japan grow after these marquee systems?
