Events

Match Events

0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Kashima Antlers and Nagoya Grampus get this one started.
5' Rikuto Hirose is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Nagoya Grampus tonight.
10' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
12' Yuma Suzuki is having a superb {COMPETITION} campaign — that is 2 goals this season for the .
17' It’s high time Daiki Iwamasa made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
22' named a 4-4-2 earlier, and opted for a 3-4-2-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
27' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
29' What a moment for Yuma Suzuki! That strike on 29 puts his side firmly in control.
34' Denmark international Kasper Junker has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
39' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
44' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Kashima Antlers that had 447 games and scored 468 goals.
49' It looks surprising Nagoya Grampus does not make any changes. Diego Pituca has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
53' Ryuji Izumi gets the nod from Nagoya Grampus. He replaces Takuya Uchida and will look to change the dynamic.
57' Time for substitution for Kashima Antlers. Hayato Nakama is replaced by Kaishu Sano.
62' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Kashima Antlers needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
64' Kei Chinen has so much to prove this time. He replaces Yuki Kakita on 64 minute.
65' The Kashima Antlers bench stirs into life. Shintaro Nago is withdrawn and Shoma Doi gets his opportunity.
68' Poor challenge from Shoma Doi. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
73' The whistle greets Yuma Suzuki as he departs to be replaced by Arthur Caike.
78' Over 78 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
83' 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 Naomichi Ueda suffering a number of foals already.
84' Kei Chinen adds to his 0 season tally! Kashima Antlers lead 3-0 — and this changes everything.
86' Fresh legs for Nagoya Grampus! Ryoga Kida comes on to replace Sho Inagaki.
88' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Kaishu Sano on 88 minutes.
90' A moment of madness from Diego Pituca on 90 minutes earns him a card. Kashima Antlers will be frustrated.
What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — Kashima Antlers 2-0 Nagoya Grampus.
