The J. League champion Kashima Antlers will play against Emperor's Cup runnerup Shimizu S-Pulse in the Xerox Super Cup, the new season's curtain raiser, on March 3 at Tokyo's National Stadium, the J. League announced Tuesday in Tokyo.
The annual one-off game usually features the J. League and Emperor's Cup winners. But since Kashima won both the league title and the Emperor's Cup, Shimizu was asked to participate this year.
