Events

Match Events

  • 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and Cerezo Osaka FC launch into their encounter with FC Tōkyō.
  • 5' Yasuki Kimoto has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 2 goals to his name this season.
  • 10' FC Tōkyō seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.

  • 25' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.

  • 50' Cerezo Osaka FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined FC Tōkyō backline.
  • 55' 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 Hiroaki Okuno suffering a number of foals already.
