Events
Match Events
- 0' That's the starting whistle at Ajinomoto Stadium. Ninety minutes of football awaits between FC Tōkyō and Yokohama FC.
- 5' What a strike from Diego Oliveira! The score is 0-1.
- 10' Kento Hashimoto has been relatively quiet despite scoring 0 goals in his last 143 appearances.
- 11' A meaty challenge results in booking for Yuri on 11.
- 16' The 35-year-old Jakub Slowik has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 19' Yokohama FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 19.
- 24' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 24 minutes.
- 27' Magnificent from Teruhito Nakagawa! That is 57 goals in 315 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 32' Yasuki Kimoto has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 2 goals to his name this season.
- 36' FC Tokyo player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 38' The whistle greets Hotaka Nakamura as he departs to be replaced by Yuto Nagatomo.
- 43' Yokohama FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 45' Yasuki Kimoto has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 45 minutes.
- 46' Fresh legs for Yokohama FC! Ryoya Yamashita comes on to replace Towa Yamane.
- 51' 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 Katsuya Iwatake suffering a number of foals already.
- 56' Koki Sakamoto, a Japan , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 61' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both FC Tōkyō and Yokohama FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 62' What composure from Diego Oliveira! The Brazil international strokes it home. 0-4.
- 66' Another change for FC Tokyo made on 66 minute. Kota Tawaratsumida leaves to be changed by Adailton.
- 67' Caprini has so much to prove this time. He replaces Koki Sakamoto on 67 minute.
- 72' Takumi Nakamura is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Yokohama FC tonight.
- 75' Another substitution for FC Tokyo to replace Kashif Bangunagande by Yuta Arai on 75 minute.
- 80' FC Tōkyō 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.
- 85' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Keigo Higashi made 450 appearances and scored 14 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 90' Hotaka Nakamura is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for FC Tōkyō so far.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Yokohama FC.
