Fukuoka Soccer Derby – Avispa Vs. Giravanz

This Wednesday night is football night! More specifically it’s the hotly-anticipated Fukuoka Derby. Avispa Fukuoka will play Giravanz Kitakyushu at Level 5 Stadium. It’s always a hotly contested match: two teams fighting to be the pride of Fukuoka! Avispa have struggled in front of goal recently, and their new Brazilian signing, Wellington, won’t be ready for the derby. Giravanz are finding their groove after a slow start to the season, and could well upset the higher-ranked Avispa. Whatever the result, it’s sure to be an entertaining game! Comedy duo 8.6 Second Bazooka and four members of AKB48 will be providing entertainment at the stadium too. Kick off is at 19:30 on Wednesday, July 8, at Level 5 Stadium. For more info (in Japanese), check out the Avispa site.
