The second half of the J1 season kicked off with plenty of goals and some huge results at both ends of the table.

We begin with Japan's excellent performance against Peru last Tuesday, before beginning our top flight wrap up with Tosu's sweet, sweet revenge away at Shonan on Saturday night.

We then move on to the top three - F.Marinos terrific and Kobe clinical away from home at Hiroshima and Fukuoka respectively, though Nagoya were well below their best in the capital as the f$%&ing new manager bounce worked a treat for FC Tokyo (to 30:00).

Then its Cerezo's unexpected goalfest up in Sapporo, and big home wins for Kyoto and Gamba, before we finish with the two draws.
