It’s Gamba vs. Sanfrecce and Antlers vs. Frontale in the Emperor’s Cup semi-finals. Both semis on Saturday went to extra time and ended 1-0. Antlers won through against a plucky (copyright “real” newspapers) Honda, with a late goal from Yanagisawa, after good work from Motoyama. Gamba won through with a goal from unsung hero in the making, Shinichi Terada, after Bando had done the hard work, though Terada’s swerving finish around the keeper from 20 yards was still classy!On Sunday Sanfrecce downed FC Tokyo 2-0, and Frontale beat Reds’ conquerors, FC Ehime by th same score.Any bets on a Gamba – Antlers final?
