Match Events

0' We are underway at Panasonic Stadium Suita. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
5' It’s high time Toru Oniki made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
10' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
15' Kawasaki Frontale fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
20' Gamba Osaka are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
25' Both keepers have barely been tested. Gamba Osaka and Kawasaki Frontale are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
30' Yuji Ono has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
35' A quiet spell here at Panasonic Stadium Suita. Kawasaki Frontale seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
40' Kazuma Watanabe has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
45' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Gamba Osaka and Kawasaki Frontale are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
46' The supporters are chanting for Kaoru Mitoma. He replaces Yasuto Wakizaka on 46 minute.
48' Ryota Ohshima has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 48 minutes.
53' Kawasaki Frontale is showing some good football. However, Kawasaki Frontale are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.

78' Gamba Osaka have won 377 goals from 403 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
80' Patric is replacing Kosuke Onose for the Gamba Osaka side.
