Kawasaki Frontale missed a chance to move up in the table – held to a scoreless draw at home by cellar-dweller Omiya Ardija as J.League action got under way again after the World Cup finals, with the four teams who had their games postponed to allow them to play in the ACL – Frontale, Sanfrecce, Gamba and Antlers.Kurotsu wasted a couple of chances and both sides struggled to put moves together. Kawasaki keeper Takashi Aizawa, in for the Belgium-bound Kawashima, dived to save Aoki’s close-range blast saving with his face. Kurotsu missed a sitter with five minutes to go, leaving the Frontale faithful wondering who was going to replace Chong Tese – off to Germany this week.At Expo Stadium, it was a similar story, with Gamba Osaka and Kyoto Sanga playing out an uneventful 1-1 draw in the rain. It was another game of few chances – Gamba played their possession football but did not have the killer instinct. Indeed, their only goal came as Hirai punished a mistake from Masushima as he slipped trying to clear. While Kyoto’s goal – Kakuda, from 20 yards out – came from a deflected clearance from Yasuda falling to him on the edge. While his shot was low and true, it went through a forest of legs and COULD have gone anywhere. But it went where it matters, 1-1! Moments before, in the 60th minute, jsoccer.com favourite Miyayoshi slipped a long free kick from Diego against the post, but that was about all the excitement for this game.Cerezo Osaka destroyed Sanfrecce Hiroshima 5-0 in Hiroshima. Ienaga opened the scoring with his first goal for the club with a beautiful solo run finished with a low grass-cutter in at the far post with the keeper stretching in vain. Sanfrecce had lost Takahagi to a 2nd yellow card just before half time and they soon crumbled under the man-short pressure, giving up four more goals in the space of 10 minutes late on, with Brazilian midfielder Amaral blasting in a 3rd after an own-goal. Takahashi and Bando finished off the scoring.The J.League is back with a full programme this weekend.In the night’s other game, Kashima Antlers moved into second place with a 1-0 home win over Shonan Bellmare, courtesy of a 9th-minute strike by Takuya Nozawa, to keep the visitors firmly rooted to the bottom of the table.
