Events

Match Events

0' That's the starting whistle at Ajinomoto Stadium. Ninety minutes of football awaits between FC Tokyo and Nagoya Grampus.
5' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. FC Tokyo needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
10' Nagoya Grampus are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
15' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
20' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
25' A quiet spell here at Ajinomoto Stadium. FC Tokyo seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
30' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
35' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
40' The 32-year-old Mateus has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
45' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His FC Tokyo side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
50' FC Tokyo started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 50.
55' Yuto Nagatomo has been relatively quiet despite scoring 3 goals in his last 167 appearances.
57' The supporters are chanting for Kazuki Nagasawa. He replaces Leo Silva on 57 minute.
58' The FC Tokyo bench stirs into life. Kensuke Nagai is withdrawn and Kazuya Konno gets his opportunity.
63' It looks like no one’s ball. Nagoya Grampus is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
68' Nagoya Grampus 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.
70' Ryoma Watanabe gets the nod from FC Tokyo. He replaces Diego Oliveira and will look to change the dynamic.
73' Nagoya Grampus manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Mu Kanazaki is hanging Yoichiro Kakitani on the field on 73 minute.
77' The FC Tokyo manager makes a substitution. Ryoya Ogawa departs to be replaced by Hotaka Nakamura.
78' Keita Yamashita is ready to make an impact after coming on for Adailton at the 78 minute mark.
83' 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 Yuki Soma suffering a number of foals already.
88' Hiroyuki Abe is replacing Keiya Sento for the Nagoya Grampus side.
The final score is 0-0.
