Events

Match Events

0' KICK OFF: FC Tōkyō gets underway.
5' The travelling Kawasaki Frontale supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
10' The home supporters are growing impatient. FC Tōkyō must find a spark to ignite this game.
15' Jung Sungryong, a Korea Republic , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
17' Ryota Ohshima puts Kawasaki Frontale on the lead.
22' It looks surprising FC Tōkyō does not make any changes. Leandro has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
23' The deadlock is broken! Leandro Damiao gets on the scoresheet on 23 minutes.
28' Magnificent from Tatsuya Hasegawa! That is 10 goals in 439 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
33' FC Tōkyō currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
38' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Tōkyō that had 437 games and scored 396 goals.
42' Time for substitution for FC Tokyo. Yojiro Takahagi is replaced by Adailton.
45' Tatsuya Hasegawa has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 45 minutes.
46' Hotaka Nakamura makes way for Sei Muroya at the 46 minute mark. A tactical switch from FC Tokyo.
51' Kawasaki Frontale are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
56' Ao Tanaka was booked on 56.
60' The referee shows Kawasaki Frontale player a Yellow card on 60.
60' Another change for Kawasaki Frontale made on 60 minute. Yasuto Wakizaka leaves to be changed by Hokuto Shimoda.
61' It is a substitution in FC Tokyo team. Shuto Abe is replaced by Kento Hashimoto on 61 minute.
66' It looks like no one’s ball. Kawasaki Frontale is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
69' The supporters are chanting for Manabu Saito. He replaces Tatsuya Hasegawa on 69 minute.
70' Hidemasa Morita has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ryota Ohshima on 70 minute.
75' 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 Hotaka Nakamura suffering a number of foals already.
79' Another change for FC Tokyo made on 79 minute. Diego Oliveira leaves to be changed by Kyosuke Tagawa.
84' Fresh legs for Kawasaki Frontale! Taisei Miyashiro comes on to replace Leandro Damiao.
89' Both keepers have barely been tested. FC Tōkyō and Kawasaki Frontale are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Kawasaki Frontale players.
