The 2008 Pan-Pacific Championship is the inaugural edition of the Pan-Pacific Championship football competition which took place on February 20 and February 23 in Honolulu, Hawaii, featuring teams from Japan's J. League, United States Major League Soccer (MLS) and the A League of Australia and New Zealand. For the 2008 tournament, the A-League was not represented by the champion team but instead by the loser of the minor semi-final. This is due to a scheduling conflict with the Grand Final on February 24, which was moved back so as not to interfere with Australia's 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification campaign. The 2008 tournament also features Gamba Osaka of the J. League, which were the 2007 J. League Cup champion, and Major League Soccer representatives Houston Dynamo and Los Angeles Galaxy, the latter reportedly chosen instead of the desired 2007 SuperLiga champion, as Pachuca declined and Galaxy were the Superliga runner-up.〔http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/5337357.html〕 The Galaxy's first game was versus Gamba Osaka.〔(BBC SPORT | Football | Galaxy set for Pan-Pacific test )〕 while the Dynamo were drawn against Sydney FC. All matches were played at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu, Hawaii. ==Bracket== |0 |February 20 - Honolulu (Aloha Stadium)| Houston Dynamo|3| Sydney FC|0 || Gamba Osaka|6| Houston Dynamo|1 |February 23 - Honolulu (Aloha Stadium)||2| Sydney FC|1 }} 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「2008 Pan-Pacific Championship」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
