Events

Match Events

  • 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and Kashiwa Reysol launch into their encounter with Vegalta Sendai.
  • 5' Vegalta Sendai come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 10' Vegalta Sendai 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.
  • 11' Cayman Togashi makes no mistake. The score reads 0-1 and Vegalta Sendai are in front.
  • 16' Kashiwa Reysol is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 21' 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 Hiromu Mitsumaru suffering a number of foals already.
  • 26' Vegalta Sendai is showing some good football. However, Vegalta Sendai are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 31' The home supporters are growing impatient. Kashiwa Reysol must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 36' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 41' Naoya Fukumori has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 46' Kashiwa Reysol ring the changes. Sachiro Toshima has done his job and it is now time for Richardson to step up.
  • 51' A quiet spell here at Sankyo Frontier Kashiwa Stadium. Vegalta Sendai seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 56' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Kashiwa Reysol that had 411 games and scored 345 goals.
  • 61' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 62' It is a substitution in Vegalta Sendai team. Yoshiki Matsushita is replaced by Shingo Tomita on 62 minute.
  • 67' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 72' Fresh legs for Vegalta Sendai! Yasuhiro Hiraoka comes on to replace Kunimitsu Sekiguchi.
  • 77' Tawiah is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Vegalta Sendai so far.
  • 78' The Japan Yuta Kamiya breaks the deadlock on 78 minutes. 1-1!
  • 83' Koji Hachisuka is ready to make an impact after coming on for Takayoshi Ishihara at the 83 minute mark.
  • 87' A change in the Kashiwa Reysol ranks — Matheus Savio exits the field as Naoki Kawaguchi enters on 87.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-1.
