- 4' Shintaro Nago doubles the advantage! 0-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 9' With 0 assists to his name this season, Naomichi Ueda is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Kashiwa Reysol.

- 24' Sachiro Toshima has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 29' 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 Kei Chinen suffering a number of foals already.
- 34' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Tomoki Hayakawa made 447 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

- 51' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
