Nagoya, G-Osaka, Kawasaki-F. Head Start for Happiness. ACL 1st Matchday, but...



On Tuesday, I thought up the title above that Nagoya and G-Osaka won easily. Yes, it can be joked that the happiness includes the defeat of Kashima :), but the league champions' 1-4 loss on Wednesday is not a welcome news.

AFC starts a new format of 2009 Champions League and four Japanese club participate the group league. East Asia clubs are allocated group E to H and each leaders and 2nd places will qualify to the Round of 16. Due to the 2009 format, each eastern group consists of a J.League club, a Korean club, a Chinense club, with other league club.
