The J. League on Thursday introduced that the Levain Cup last will certainly happen onJan 4, 2021 at Tokyo’s National Stadium, almost 2 months after the video game’s initial day.
The face-off in between Kashiwa Reysol as well as FC Tokyo, initially arranged forNov 7, was delayed after Reysol endured a coronavirus collection infection amongst its gamers as well as personnel startNov 2. That break out required the organization to hold off 2 first-division video games which will certainly be composed in very early December.
While authorities taken into consideration holding the last in between the J1’sDec 19 ending as well as the Emperor’s Cup semifinals onDec 27, the very early 2021 day was picked because of Tokyo’s Asian Champions League dedications, which will certainly see the group traveling to Doha onNov 19 as well as potentially remain with the continental competitors’sDec 19 last.
Tokyo, which is presently in 3rd area in the J1 with 4 video games continuing to be, can still in theory end up the period in 2nd area as well as receive the Emperor’s Cup semifinals along with presumptive organization champ Kawasaki Frontale.
“Because of the potential (for Tokyo to reach the ACL final), it was difficult to schedule the Levain Cup for FC Tokyo between Dec. 19 and 27,” organization chairman Mitsuru Murai claimed. “Right now players returning from overseas will have to isolate. We’ve been in negotiations but it’s not a simple thing and we determined that putting a match in that period would be risky.
“There’s still the possibility that Tokyo won’t reach the final and they could return to Japan earlier. In that case it might have been possible to schedule the match for (later in December), but in order to make it easier for fans who have purchased tickets we can’t create a situation where there are multiple reschedulings.”
Further making complex issues are present laws meant to stop the spread of the coronavirus within Japan, which would certainly see Tokyo gamers as well as personnel returning from Qatar required to separate for 2 weeks. Should Kenta Hasegawa’s guys get to the ACL last, that would certainly leave them incapable to educate as a group up until as lateJan 3– the day prior to the Levain last.
