- 5' Kazuki Fujimoto needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 10' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 15' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Avispa Fukuoka needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 20' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Daiki Matsuoka suffering a number of foals already.
- 25' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 30' It’s high time Myung-Hwi Kim made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 35' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 35 minutes.
