J-Talk Short Corner - J3 Round 32 Review
42 minutes ago
42 minutes ago
In a standalone JTET mini-pod, Mike 'The Magic' Innes runs his forensic eye over last weekend's J3 action.
There's plenty to discuss, with under-new-ownership Omiya clinching promotion with six games to spare, as well as a heated battle for Play-Off places. At the foot of the table, there are still several teams who are in dire need of points to avoid a possible Relegation Play-Off at the end of the season.
Mike wraps things up with his customary check on the league table, and a preview of the upcoming Round 33 fixtures this weekend.
Thank you for all the support, and enjoy the show!

There were plot twists galore in J2 and J3 last weekend, and James Taylor, Jon Steele and Mike Innes have all the details in this week’s JTET. First, James and Jon discussed the opening game at the Peace Stadium connected by Softbank in Nagasaki, where the generous visitors were Oita (start to 17:50), then Kofu’s surprise win over Okayama (17:50 to 26:30) and the draw between relegation-threatened Tochigi and Ehime (26:30 to 37:55). Next, it’s Most Bravo Player time (37:55 to 43:20), there’s a preview of the next round of fixtures (43:20 to 50:00) and of this weekend’s J-Talk LIVE at the Yokohama Football Film Festival (50:00 to 55:00).

Episode 537 - J1 Matchday 30
Tuesday Sep 17, 2024
Tuesday Sep 17, 2024
J1 returned with a bang after the international break, and on our new episode Jonny and Ben round up all the action from a drama-filled weekend.
We begin at the top with the pulsating draw between Kashima and Hiroshima on Saturday night, a result that allowed Machida to return to the summit after they claimed a terrific away win over Fukuoka, with Kobe keeping pace after cruising past Cerezo Osaka on Friday night, though Gamba Osaka's title hopes were dealt a major blow as Maciej Skorza returned to the Urawa dugout and led Reds to a win at the Suita City Stadium (to 40:10).
Next we shift our attention to the relegation dogfight, with Kyoto continuing their excellent recent form to maintain their gap above the bottom three, though Tosu and Sapporo both lost, to further dent their faint hopes of survival. Iwata stunned Kashiwa to move within a point of safety behind Shonan, who were never at the races in their loss at Niigata.
We finish our Matchday 30 roundup at the National stadium (to 1:20:10), then wrap up the episode with a look at upcoming ACL and domestic fixtures, including an intriguing-looking J1 Matchday 31.
