Episode 440 - Title Glory for Muscat’s F.Marinos

It was truly an amazing final day of the J1 season, and when the dust settled, Yokohama F.Marinos were crowned top flight champions, and Stuart Woodward guests in Part 1 to revel in the triumph, sealed with a 3-1 away win over Kobe (to 36:25).

Then in Part 2 your regular co-hosts chat about Kawasaki, who finished two points behind the champions, before moving on to talk about Shimizu's relegation after the barnburner up at the Sapporo Dome, and look ahead to Sunday's playoff final, where incumbents Kyoto will battle upstarts Kumamoto for a spot in the top flight in 2023.

We round up all of the other games, and then move on to the Japan squad for the World Cup (with news breaking on Tuesday afternoon that Shuto Machino has been called up to replace Yuta Nakayama), and hand out our final four club Player of the Season awards.
