Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Avispa Fukuoka kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Gamba Osaka is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Shahab Zahedi Tabar made 20 appearances and scored 9 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 13' Time for substitution for Avispa Fukuoka. Jurato Ikeda is replaced by Seiya Inoue.
- 18' A quiet spell here at Suita City Football Stadium. Gamba Osaka seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 20' That is a card for Gamba Osaka. Tokuma Suzuki will be fuming at that decision.
- 22' Kazuya Konno adds to his 0 season tally! Avispa Fukuoka lead 0-1 — and this changes everything.
- 27' GOAL! Shota Fukuoka scores on 27. Assisted by Tokuma Suzuki
- 32' Sensational shot from Daiki Miya. Avispa Fukuoka is back in the lead.
- 36' Daiki Miya picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 41' The home supporters are growing impatient. Gamba Osaka must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 45' Masato Shigemi picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 48' What a strike from Isa Sakamoto! The score is 2-2.
- 53' Japan international Masaaki Murakami has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 57' Itsuki Oda is replacing Masashi Kamekawa for the Avispa Fukuoka side.
- 62' 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 Keisuke Kurokawa suffering a number of foals already.
- 67' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 72' Ryoya Yamashita has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 75' A tactical swap from Gamba Osaka — Kota Yamada on, Juan Alano off on 75 minutes.
- 80' Gamba Osaka started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 80.
- 83' The Gamba Osaka manager makes a substitution. Ryoya Yamashita departs to be replaced by Yuya Fukuda.
- 86' Another change for Avispa Fukuoka made on 86 minute. Kazuya Konno leaves to be changed by Takeshi Kanamori.
- 87' That is a card for Avispa Fukuoka. Takeshi Kanamori will be fuming at that decision.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 2-2 draw is a fair result on the day.
