[spectacular291]

Daniel. What is the most likely japanese team we will be playing?

 

The Emperor's Cup winner which is either Urawa or Kawasaki

[DCWSW]

If Kashima win the Cup we'll be playing Urawa

 

Otherwise it's whoever wins the cup.

Was already planning a trip to Japan/Korea in late April/May. Missus is keen, hope the stars align and it happens!

 

Urawa would be awesome!

[DCWSW]

So is it certain the away trip to Japan is on April 26?

Not certain but likely.

 

Awaiting official confirmation from AFC. Will post as soon as possible.

FFS, I booked leave dates for both Feb and March, the only set of dates I didn't book was April and now it's unavailable cos someone else in my team already has time off.

 

Gonna be so pissed if it does end up being April 26 and can't go to Japan. Been looking forward to it for awhile! Will have to consider Korea instead, not a bad alternative

[DCWSW]
