0' And we are off! FC Tōkyō vs Kyōto Sanga FC — let the football do the talking.
5' FC Tōkyō is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
10' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both FC Tōkyō and Kyōto Sanga FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
15' 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 Yasuki Kimoto suffering a number of foals already.
20' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Koki Tsukagawa made 34 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
25' FC Tōkyō currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
28' Goal! Leandro scores his 26 goal in 460 matches.
33' It looks surprising Kyōto Sanga FC does not make any changes. Naoto Kamifukumoto has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
38' Kyōto Sanga FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
43' Paulinho has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
46' Kyoto Sanga FC ring the changes. Peter Utaka has done his job and it is now time for Yudai Kimura to step up.
49' The Kyoto Sanga FC manager makes a substitution. Kosuke Taketomi departs to be replaced by Shimpei Fukuoka.
54' Over 54 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
57' Kyoto Sanga FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Paulinho is hanging Temma Matsuda on the field on 57 minute.
60' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Kosuke Shirai.
65' The home supporters are growing impatient. FC Tōkyō must find a spark to ignite this game.
67' Another change for Kyoto Sanga FC made on 67 minute. Shohei Takeda leaves to be changed by Daiki Kaneko.
68' The supporters are chanting for Alan. He replaces Yuta Toyokawa on 68 minute.
69' Another substitution for FC Tokyo to replace Diego Oliveira by Luiz Phellype on 69 minute.
74' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
75' The supporters are chanting for Hirotaka Mita. He replaces Koki Tsukagawa on 75 minute.
76' Hotaka Nakamura is ready to make an impact after coming on for Kashif Bangunagande at the 76 minute mark.
78' Against the run of play, Adailton has scored! This game has turned on its head.
81' A moment of madness from Ryoma Watanabe on 81 minutes earns him a Yellow card. FC Tokyo will be frustrated.
86' Kyōto Sanga FC is showing some good football. However, Kyōto Sanga FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
90' Time for substitution for FC Tokyo. Ryoma Watanabe is replaced by Keita Yamashita.
90' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Masato Morishige.
2-0 the final result. Kyōto Sanga FC will be bitterly disappointed.
