- 0' That's the starting whistle at Ajinomoto Stadium. Ninety minutes of football awaits between FC Tōkyō and Tokyo Verdy.
- 5' Japan international Ryotaro Araki has been a key figure this campaign — 1 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.

- 25' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 30' Tomoya Miki has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 35' 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 Masato Morishige suffering a number of foals already.
- 40' It’s high time Peter Cklamovski made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 45' A quiet spell here at Ajinomoto Stadium. FC Tōkyō seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.

- 55' With 0 assists to his name this season, Takahiro Ko is clearly more than just a goal scorer for FC Tōkyō.

- 70' It is a substitution in FC Tokyo team. Keita Endo is replaced by Kota Tawaratsumida on 70 minute.
- 75' The travelling Tokyo Verdy supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 77' FC Tokyo make a change. Takahiro Ko trudges off to be replaced by Riki Harakawa on 77 minutes.
- 82' It looks surprising FC Tōkyō does not make any changes. Hiroto Yamami has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 83' Teppei Oka is ready to make an impact after coming on for Masato Morishige at the 83 minute mark.
- 86' Tokyo Verdy manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Yuan Matsuhashi is hanging Yuta Matsumura on the field on 86 minute.
