  • 10' Sei Muroya has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 15' FC Tokyo started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 15.
  • 20' With 0 assists to his name this season, Masato Morishige is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Tokyo Verdy.
  • 21' Kento Hashimoto picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 26' Supporters expect more eagerness from Itsuki Someno, as he is very good at scoring at Ajinomoto Stadium with 9 goals in the last 7 games.
  • 29' Koki Morita has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 29 minutes.
  • 34' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 39' Tokyo Verdy seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 41' Sei Muroya makes no mistake. The score reads 1-1 and FC Tokyo are in front.
  • 46' Ryota Inoue has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 51' The travelling Tokyo Verdy supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 56' That looks like a foul for a card for Keita Endo.
  • 61' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 61 minutes.
  • 66' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.

  • 76' Tokyo Verdy come into this ranked 8 in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 79' Controversy at the stadium! Alexander Scholz argues furiously but the card stands.
  • 84' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Tokyo Verdy that had 102 games and scored 85 goals.
  • 89' Kaito Suzuki is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Tokyo Verdy tonight.
  • With this win, FC Tokyo is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
