Liverpool Cancels Pre-Season Tour of Japan
Liverpool FC have cancelled their scheduled July pre-season tour of Japan.
The Reds were to play 2 games in Japan, against Shimuzu S-Pulse on the 27th July and Kashima Antlers on 30th July. Unfortunately, due to their defence of the Champions League Trophy, these dates clash with the first leg of the 2nd qualifying round of the CL which is to be played on 26 or 27 July against yet unknown opponents.
However, all is not lost as Liverpool are to compete in the FIFA Club World Championships - the Toyota Cup Japan 2005 - in Yokohama on the 15th & 18th December 2005, as the holders of the European Champions League Trophy.
Other teams involved in this FIFA competition will be the winners of AFC Champions League, CAF Champions League, CONCACAF Champions Cup, OFC Club Championship and CONMEBOL Copa Libertadores.
3 Lions Sport will be providing Match packages for fans wanting to travel to Japan to see Liverpool in action. Details to be announced shortly
