With six games remaining in the J. League first-division season, Kawasaki Frontale have clinched a return to the Asian Champions League.
Next on the list? An unprecedented fourth J1 title in five years.
Leandro Damiao’s goal shortly before the break and some spirited defending in the second half were enough to give Frontale a 1-0 win over Tamagawa Clasico opponent FC Tokyo on Saturday, guaranteeing the defending champion a top-two finish.
