Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Nagoya Grampus kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' Nagoya Grampus fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 10' Nagoya Grampus are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 15' Japan international Takuji Yonemoto has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 20' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Yutaka Yoshida made 279 appearances and scored 7 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 25' Gabriel Xavier needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 30' Nagoya Grampus are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 35' Nagoya Grampus come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 40' 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 Naoki Maeda suffering a number of foals already.
  • 45' Mateus makes no mistake. The score reads 0-1 and Nagoya Grampus are in front.
  • 50' Yuki Soma is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Kawasaki Frontale tonight.
  • 55' Kawasaki Frontale make a change. Ao Tanaka trudges off to be replaced by Leandro Damiao on 55 minutes.
  • 56' The Nagoya Grampus bench stirs into life. Mateus is withdrawn and Ryuji Izumi gets his opportunity.
  • 60' Kawasaki Frontale manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Manabu Saito is hanging Hiroyuki Abe on the field on 60 minute.
  • 65' Kyohei Noborizato has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 67' That is a Yellow card for Nagoya Grampus. Gabriel Xavier will be fuming at that decision.
  • 69' Magnificent from Leandro Damiao! That is 74 goals in 333 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 74' A moment of madness from Kazuya Miyahara on 74 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Nagoya Grampus will be frustrated.
  • 79' Yasuto Wakizaka is ready to make an impact after coming on for Kengo Nakamura at the 79 minute mark.
  • 81' Nagoya Grampus manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Yuki Soma is hanging Kazuya Miyahara on the field on 81 minute.
  • 84' Aria Hasegawa makes way for Naoki Maeda at the 84 minute mark. A tactical switch from Nagoya Grampus.
  • 89' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 89 minutes.
  • The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
