  • 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Takeru Kishimoto made 37 appearances and scored 12 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Gamba Osaka that had 403 games and scored 377 goals.
