0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against FC Tokyo and Avispa Fukuoka has kicked off!
5' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
9' That is a card for Avispa Fukuoka. Takaaki Shichi will be fuming at that decision.
14' FC Tokyo started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 14.
19' Shintaro Nago has been relatively quiet despite scoring 11 goals in his last 448 appearances.
24' Leon Nozawa is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Avispa Fukuoka so far.
29' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
34' Over 34 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
39' Supporters expect more eagerness from Wellington, as he is very good at scoring at Ajinomoto Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
41' What composure from Marcelo Ryan! The Brazil international strokes it home. 1-0.
45' A moment of madness from Wellington on 45 minutes earns him a card. Avispa Fukuoka will be frustrated.

51' named a earlier, and opted for a in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
55' Shahab Zahedi Tabar is ready to make an impact after coming on for Nassim Ben Khalifa at the 55 minute mark.
60' Kazuya Konno has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
65' 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 Masaaki Murakami suffering a number of foals already.
66' FC Tokyo ring the changes. Keigo Higashi has done his job and it is now time for Kento Hashimoto to step up.
71' It’s high time Myung-Hwi Kim made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
