Events

Match Events

0' KICK OFF: Kawasaki Frontale gets underway.
5' With 0 assists to his name this season, Ryota Ohshima is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Kawasaki Frontale.
10' Kawasaki Frontale are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Nagoya Grampus backline.
15' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Nagoya Grampus winning 100% of all matches.
20' The travelling Nagoya Grampus supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
25' Japan international Shogo Taniguchi has been a key figure this campaign — 2 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
30' Shinnosuke Nakatani has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
35' Kawasaki Frontale currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
40' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Kawasaki Frontale and Nagoya Grampus are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
45' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Mateus makes no mistake. 0-1!
50' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
55' The Kawasaki Frontale manager makes a substitution. Ao Tanaka departs to be replaced by Leandro Damiao.
56' It is a substitution in Nagoya Grampus team. Mateus is replaced by Ryuji Izumi on 56 minute.
60' Manabu Saito gets the nod from Kawasaki Frontale. He replaces Hiroyuki Abe and will look to change the dynamic.
65' It looks surprising Nagoya Grampus does not make any changes. Ao Tanaka has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
67' Gabriel Xavier catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 67.
69' Leandro Damiao adds to his 0 season tally! Kawasaki Frontale lead 1-1 — and this changes everything.
74' A moment of madness from Kazuya Miyahara on 74 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Nagoya Grampus will be frustrated.
79' Another change for Kawasaki Frontale made on 79 minute. Kengo Nakamura leaves to be changed by Yasuto Wakizaka.
81' Yuki Soma has so much to prove this time. He replaces Kazuya Miyahara on 81 minute.
84' The whistle greets Aria Hasegawa as he departs to be replaced by Naoki Maeda.
89' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Kengo Nakamura made 452 appearances and scored 16 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 1-1 draw is a fair result on the day.
