Events

Match Events

0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for FC Tokyo to score. At the same time, Kashima Antlers does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
5' Shoma Doi needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Tokyo that had 441 games and scored 404 goals.
15' Over 15 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
20' FC Tokyo currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
25' Takuya Uchida has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 1 cards already picked up this season.
30' The energy levels are beginning to show. Kenta Hasegawa might look to freshen things up shortly.
35' Takumi Nakamura has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 4 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
40' The travelling Kashima Antlers supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
45' Ryotaro Araki has been relatively quiet despite scoring 23 goals in his last 451 appearances.
46' Against the run of play, Ikuma Sekigawa has scored! This game has turned on its head.
48' Magnificent from Everaldo! That is 58 goals in 180 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
53' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Joan Oumari made 279 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
57' What a strike from Juan Alano! The score is 0-3.
60' It is a substitution in FC Tokyo team. Adailton is replaced by Kensuke Nagai on 60 minute.
62' A moment of madness from Arthur on 62 minutes earns him a Yellow card. FC Tokyo will be frustrated.
64' Leo Silva gets the nod from Kashima Antlers. He replaces Ryota Nagaki and will look to change the dynamic.
69' 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.
74' FC Tokyo are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Kashima Antlers's shape.
76' Kazuya Konno has so much to prove this time. He replaces Yojiro Takahagi on 76 minute.
78' Katsuya Nagato has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 78.
83' Time for substitution for Kashima Antlers. Juan Alano is replaced by Tatsuki Nara.
86' Kento Misao is having his name booked by the referee on 86.
90' The Kashima Antlers manager makes a substitution. Ryotaro Araki departs to be replaced by Yasushi Endo.
The points are shared — FC Tokyo 1-2 Kashima Antlers. Honours even.
