Events

Match Events

  • 0' What a night it is going to be! Gamba Osaka welcome Nagoya Grampus for this crunch clash at Panasonic Stadium Suita.
  • 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Shota Fukuoka, as he is very good at scoring at Panasonic Stadium Suita with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
  • 15' Australia international Mitch Langerak has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 20' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 23' The referee shows Nagoya Grampus player a card on 23.
  • 26' GOAL! Haruya Fujii scores on 26. Assisted by Ryuji Izumi
  • 31' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Kenta Hasegawa will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 36' The home supporters are growing impatient. Gamba Osaka must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 41' It looks surprising Gamba Osaka does not make any changes. Takashi Usami has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 42' Fresh legs for Nagoya Grampus! Yuki Nogami comes on to replace Akinari Kawazura.
  • 47' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 52' The referee has no hesitation. Kyung-won Kwon is booked for Gamba Osaka — card on 52.
  • 57' Gamba Osaka receives a card for a hard tackle on 57.
  • 59' The Gamba Osaka bench stirs into life. Ryotaro Meshino is withdrawn and Issam Jebali gets his opportunity.
  • 64' It looks like no one’s ball. Gamba Osaka is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 69' Ryu Takao has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 71' Dai Tsukamoto gets the nod from Gamba Osaka. He replaces Juan Alano and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 76' The supporters are chanting for Tsukasa Morishima. He replaces Kensuke Nagai on 76 minute.
  • 81' 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 Ryuji Izumi suffering a number of foals already.
  • 86' The whistle greets Ryuji Izumi as he departs to be replaced by Takuya Uchida.
  • 87' The Nagoya Grampus bench stirs into life. Kasper Junker is withdrawn and Ryoga Kida gets his opportunity.
  • With this win, Nagoya Grampus is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
