Soccer J League will hold a match from the 10th, with a maximum of 5000 people. The long-awaited supporters are visiting the stadium in Okayama City, where the only match is held on the night of the 10th.
The J League has been playing games without spectators since last month, but since the country relaxed the restrictions on holding events, from the 10th onwards, it will hold games with up to 5,000 spectators.
The first match between J2's Fagiano Okayama and Giravanz Kitakyushu was held at the stadium in Okayama City from 7 pm and over 3,500 tickets were prepared.
A large number of supporters in masks visited the venue to form a line, and when the gate was opened at 5 pm, everyone took temperature measurements and hand sanitization at the entrance, and went into the stadium one after another.
During the game, support is restricted to prevent infection from flying or contact, and it is prohibited to make a loud voice or sing a song, to make a high-touch or to fold a shoulder, or to swing a towel or a flag.
A man in his 60s said, “I've been waiting for a long time. I can finally watch the game at the stadium. I can't make a loud voice, but I want to enjoy cheering for a while.”
In addition, a woman in her thirties said, "I took a break from my afternoon work to watch the game. I would like to support the players in a new way and develop their energy."
J1 matches are scheduled to be held all over Japan after the 11th.
