The new reality of watching football in Japan | Omiya Ardija v Tokyo Verdy | J2 League

Football fans are back in J.League stadiums after more than four months. This was the experience on the first weekend back at NACK5 Stadium as Omiya Ardija took on Tokyo Verdy in J2. There were many safety measures in place, including temperature checks and alcohol hand sanitiser at the entrance. Masks were compulsory. The attendance was also limited, with seats blocked to maintain social distancing. And that wasn't all. Artificial crowd noise, no singing, no flag waving and cardboard cutout squirrels on the terraces. It's football, but not as we know it. To see what NACK5 was like before the lockdown, then check out this match day experience from last season when Omiya Ardija hosted Avispa Fukuoka in J2: https://youtu.be/bf4tTGrqvNc To find out more about Omiya Ardija, check out their club profile on the official Lost in Football Japan website: https://lostinfootballjapan.com/club-profiles/omiya-ardija/ And to find out more about Tokyo Verdy, check out their club profile here: https://lostinfootballjapan.com/club-profiles/tokyo-verdy/ Follow Lost in Football Japan https://twitter.com/lifjapan https://www.instagram.com/lostinfootb... https://www.facebook.com/LostinFootba... https://lostinfootballjapan.com/
