Two matches from the 2016 MEIJI YASUDA J1 League matchday seven took place on Thursday night, nearly seven weeks after they were postponed due to April’s Kumamoto Earthquake.
Sagan Tosu earned their third 0-0 draw in four rounds against Vissel Kobe, which was enough to see the hosts rise to 15th and the visitors to ninth.
At Level 5 Stadium, last-place Avispa Fukuoka managed an identical result against Nagoya Grampus, who are winless in their last five matches.
