Events
Match Events
- 0' Welcome to Sankyo Frontier Kashiwa Stadium that hosts another battle between Kashiwa Reysol and Kawasaki Frontale.
- 5' Kashiwa Reysol 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.
- 10' Kawasaki Frontale looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker scoring 0 goals.
- 15' 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.
- 20' Kashiwa Reysol is showing some good football. However, Kashiwa Reysol are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 25' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Kawasaki Frontale that had 437 games and scored 552 goals.
- 30' Svend Brodersen needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 35' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 40' It’s high time Ricardo Rodríguez made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 45' Ryosuke Kojima has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 50' It looks like no one’s ball. Kashiwa Reysol is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 55' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 60' 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.
- 65' 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 Koya Yuruki suffering a number of foals already.
- 70' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Kawasaki Frontale needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 73' GOAL! Mao Hosoya scores on 73. Assisted by Seiya Baba
- 78' Kashiwa Reysol is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 83' Kawasaki Frontale started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 83.
- 88' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Tojiro Kubo made 437 appearances and scored 11 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
