- 5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
- 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 Kyogo Furuhashi suffering a number of foals already.
- 14' What a strike from Noriaki Fujimoto! The score is 0-1.
- 19' Kashima Antlers seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
