Oita Trinita and Shimizu S-Pulse advanced to the Nabisco Cup final


TO THE NATIONAL STADIUM
Oita Trinita 1-0 Nagoya Grampus


J.LEAGUE Yamazaki Nabisco Cup Semi Finals second leg were played in Oita and Osaka. Oita beat the league leader Nagoya and Shimizu won over the 07 cup holder G-Osaka.

The night was the best for Brazilian coach Pericles Chamusca. He heads Oita since mid-season of 2005. Oita is known as the "lowest budget" club in the league but he brings young players up and makes solid organized team. Chamusca has been proving his talent in Japan. Awesome provincial club goes to the final.

It is for Shimizu S-Pluse's first league cup final since their victory in 1996 J.LEAGUE Yamazaki Nabisco Cup.

The final is on 1st November (Sat) 13:35 in "Kokuritsu" National Stadium Tokyo.
