- 5' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 10' Hiroaki Okuno puts Cerezo Osaka FC on the lead.
- 15' Supporters expect more eagerness from Daizen Maeda, as he is very good at scoring at Yanmar Stadium Nagai with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 20' Junior Santos has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 25' Cerezo Osaka FC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Yokohama F·Marinos's shape.
- 28' Controversy at the stadium! Junior Santos argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 33' The energy levels are beginning to show. Lotina might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 38' Over 38 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 43' The 30-year-old Ado Onaiwu has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 1 assists is a remarkable return.
- 48' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Edigar Junio made 329 appearances and scored 23 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 53' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 58' Tatsuhiro Sakamoto is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Yokohama F·Marinos so far.
- 63' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 66' A tactical swap from Cerezo Osaka FC — Yuta Toyokawa on, Bruno Mendes off on 66 minutes.
- 67' Hiroaki Okuno adds to his 0 season tally! Cerezo Osaka FC lead 2-0 — and this changes everything.

- 74' The Yokohama F.Marinos manager makes a substitution. Takahiro Ogihara departs to be replaced by Ado Onaiwu.
- 79' 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 Bruno Mendes suffering a number of foals already.
- 81' Yuta Toyokawa adds to his 0 season tally! Cerezo Osaka FC lead 4-0 — and this changes everything.
- 83' A change in the Cerezo Osaka FC ranks — Hiroshi Kiyotake exits the field as Jun Nishikawa enters on 83.
- 86' Cerezo Osaka FC ring the changes. Hiroaki Okuno has done his job and it is now time for Toshiyuki Takagi to step up.
- 88' A moment of madness from Yuta Toyokawa on 88 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Cerezo Osaka FC will be frustrated.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Cerezo Osaka FC players.
