J.League Division 2 2011 ↓

The J.League Division 1 2011 was the nineteenth season of the highest division of the Japanese J.League and the thirteenth under the name Division 1 . Eighteen clubs took part in it. The season started on March 5 and ended on December 3, 2011; Due to the Tōhoku earthquake on March 11, 2011, the competition was interrupted after only one game day until April 23, the canceled games were made up in the otherwise game-free summer break in July.

The championship was won by last year's climber Kashiwa Reysol . For the AFC Champions League 2012 placed next to Kashiwa the second Nagoya Grampus and the third Gamba Osaka . Direct relegated to Division 2 2012 were the table sixteenth Ventforet Kofu , the seventeenth Avispa Fukuoka and bottom of the table Montedio Yamagata .

mode

As in the previous season , the clubs faced each other twice in a double round tournament , once at home and once away. There were three points for a win; in the case of a draw, each team received one point. The final table was therefore created according to the following criteria:

1. Number of points scored
2. Goal difference
3. Goals scored
4. Results of the games among themselves
5. Decision game or coin toss

The club with the best result at the end of the season won the Japanese championship. The best three teams qualified for the AFC Champions League 2012 , and should one of these teams win the 2011 Kaiser Cup, the fourth-placed team moved up. The three worst teams were relegated to the J.League Division 2 in 2012 .

Attendees

A total of eighteen teams took part in the season. Here the FC Tokyo , Kyōto Sanga and Shonan Bellmare left the league as the worst teams of the preseason in the direction of Division 2 2011 ; Tokyo ended an eleven-year league membership, Kyoto returned after three years and Shonan after just one year back in Division 2.

The three relegated teams were replaced by the best three clubs in the J.League Division 2 2010 . Master Kashiwa Reysol was able to repair the second relegation from the House of Lords at the end of the 2009 season, the runner-up Ventforet Kofu rose to Division 1 for the second time after three years in Division 2; The third-placed Avispa Fukuoka dared his third attempt in Division 1 after four years in Division 2.
