11' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
16' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

52' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Yuki Ohashi makes it 0-5.

59' Another change for Cerezo Osaka FC made on 59 minute. Naoyuki Fujita leaves to be changed by Riki Harakawa.
