The regular J2 season may have ended, but some teams still have games to play: James Taylor and Jon Steele preview the playoff semi-finals and Kofu’s Asian Champions League game (start to 15:40), before chatting about some confirmed managerial departures (15:40 to 27:10).

We know that Ehime will be in J2 next year, but who will join them? The battle to finish 2nd – or should that be not to finish 2nd? – in J3 is in full flow, and Mike Innes has all the details in J-Talk: Short Corner (27:10 to end).
