La liga
japonesa se reanudó a principios de julio.
La J-League,
la liga profesional de fútbol de Japón, ha decidido este martes mantener al
menos hasta septiembre el tope de 5.000 espectadores en los
estadios para prevenir posibles contagios de coronavirus.
Los organizadores
del campeonato nacional nipón optaron por no ampliar la entrada de
espectadores hasta la mitad del aforo de los estadios, tal y como
estaba inicialmente previsto, durante una reunión extraordinaria entre los
representantes ejecutivos de todos los equipos celebrada hoy.
Esta medida fue
tomada en el contexto de contagios continuados de coronavirus en Japón,
una situación que también ha afectado a la J-League, con varias
infecciones entre jugadores y personal de equipos que incluso han obligado a
suspender partidos .
El último de
estos contagios anunciado hoy mismo afecta al técnico Kim Myung-Hwi,
entrenador del Sagan Tosu, en el que militó hasta el año pasado el
español Fernando Torres.
La liga
profesional nipona se reanudó a comienzos de julio después de un
parón de cuatro meses debido a la pandemia, y desde el día
10 de ese mismo mes permite la entrada de espectadores en los estadios
aunque con un tope de 5.000 personas y siempre que se pueda mantener
una distancia de seguridad interpersonal.
La J-League revisará
esta política a finales de agosto, en el marco del protocolo de seguridad
elaborado por las autoridades niponas para los eventos deportivos y culturales
multitudinarios.
Las medidas
preventivas en la liga nipona también incluyen realizar test
PCR frecuentes entre jugadores y trabajadores de clubs, la recomendación a
los futbolistas de evitar el contacto estrecho en entrenamientos y partidos o
la prohibición de gritar y cantar para los espectadores que acudan a las
gradas.
Los protocolos
aplicados para la vuelta de público a los estadios de béisbol y fútbol, los dos
deportes más populares de Japón, son seguidos con atención por los
organizadores de los Juegos Olímpicos de Tokio 2020, que podrían
inspirarse en estos casos prácticos de cara al evento deportivo internacional
previsto para el próximo verano.
