Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Sanfrecce Hiroshima kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' It looks surprising Sanfrecce Hiroshima does not make any changes. Naoto Arai has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 10' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His FC Tōkyō side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 15' FC Tōkyō have won 416 goals from 447 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 20' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 23' Sanfrecce Hiroshima receives a card for a hard tackle on 23.
  • 28' The travelling Sanfrecce Hiroshima supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 33' Sanfrecce Hiroshima come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 38' 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.
  • 43' Sanfrecce Hiroshima started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 43.
  • 46' The Sanfrecce Hiroshima bench stirs into life. Naoki Maeda is withdrawn and Sota Nakamura gets his opportunity.
  • 49' Against the run of play, Hayato Araki has scored! This game has turned on its head.
  • 54' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 59' GOAL! Ryo Germain scores on 59.
  • 62' The supporters are chanting for Keigo Higashi. He replaces Takahiro Ko on 62 minute.

  • 72' Sanfrecce Hiroshima are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 73' Teruhito Nakagawa gets the nod from FC Tokyo. He replaces Kein Sato and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 78' Teppei Oka is replacing Marcelo Ryan for the FC Tokyo side.
  • 83' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Taishi Nozawa made 447 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 85' That looks like a foul for a card for Kei Koizumi.
  • 88' Hayao Kawabe is having a superb {COMPETITION} campaign — that is 1 goals this season for the .
  • 90' Another change for Sanfrecce Hiroshima made on 90 minute. Mutsuki Kato leaves to be changed by Valere Germain.
