Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. FC Tokyo kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' 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.
  • 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Mitsuo Ogasawara made 460 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 15' Kashima Antlers started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 15.
  • 20' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 25' Both keepers have barely been tested. FC Tokyo and Kashima Antlers are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 30' It’s high time Go Oiwa made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 35' Ryota Nagaki has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 40' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Kenta Hasegawa will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 45' Kashima Antlers are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 50' It looks surprising Kashima Antlers does not make any changes. Kotaro Omori has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 55' Yuma Suzuki has been relatively quiet despite scoring 98 goals in his last 460 appearances.
  • 60' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 65' It is a cagey affair so far. FC Tokyo in their trying to find a way past Kashima Antlers's compact .
  • 70' The energy levels are beginning to show. Kenta Hasegawa might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 75' FC Tokyo has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
  • 80' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 85' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 90' Kashima Antlers come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Kashima Antlers.
