Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Gamba Osaka kicks off things out of here…
- 5' It is a cagey affair so far. Gamba Osaka in their 4-1-2-3 trying to find a way past Shonan Bellmare's compact 3-1-4-2.
- 10' 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 Tarik Elyounoussi suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 20' The energy levels are beginning to show. Daniel Poyatos Algaba might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 25' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 30' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 35' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Satoshi Yamaguchi will be considering his options from the bench.
- 37' A stunning finish from Juan Alano — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 42' Daiki Sugioka has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 46' It is a substitution in Shonan Bellmare team. Naoki Yamada is replaced by Taiyo Hiraoka on 46 minute.
- 51' Gamba Osaka are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Shonan Bellmare backline.
- 56' Over 56 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 59' Shonan Bellmare receives a card for a hard tackle on 59.
- 61' The Japan Takashi Usami breaks the deadlock on 61 minutes. 2-0!
- 63' Shonan Bellmare ring the changes. Taiga Hata has done his job and it is now time for Akimi Barada to step up.
- 68' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Gamba Osaka side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 73' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 77' Poor challenge from Dawhan. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
- 79' The whistle greets Shota Fukuoka as he departs to be replaced by Yota Sato.
- 81' Gamba Osaka make a change. Takashi Usami trudges off to be replaced by Ryotaro Meshino on 81 minutes.
- 82' The referee calls foul for Taiyo Hiraoka. He receives a card.
- 85' It is a substitution in Shonan Bellmare team. Takuya Okamoto is replaced by Tarik Elyounoussi on 85 minute.
- 87' It’s gonna be a card for Konsuke Onose.
- 90' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Ryu Takao on 90 minutes.
- 90' Another substitution for Gamba Osaka to replace Juan Alano by Yuya Fukuda on 90 minute.
- The points are shared — Gamba Osaka 2-1 Shonan Bellmare. Honours even.
