Events

Match Events

  • 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Kawasaki Frontale and Nagoya Grampus is underway.
  • 5' Nagoya Grampus have won 412 goals from 452 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 10' The energy levels are beginning to show. Kenta Hasegawa might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 15' Kawasaki Frontale player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 20' Mu Kanazaki has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 25' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Marcinho makes it 1-0.
  • 30' Yuki Soma has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 35' 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 Leo Silva suffering a number of foals already.
  • 40' It looks surprising Kawasaki Frontale does not make any changes. Shinnosuke Nakatani has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 45' Nagoya Grampus are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 50' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Manabu Saito made 452 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 55' Nagoya Grampus has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
  • 60' The whistle greets Chanathip Songkrasin as he departs to be replaced by Kazuki Kozuka.
  • 65' Keiya Sento is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Nagoya Grampus tonight.
  • 69' The Nagoya Grampus bench stirs into life. Keiya Sento is withdrawn and Hiroyuki Abe gets his opportunity.
  • 73' The crowd applauds Yasuto Wakizaka as he leaves the pitch. Daiya Tono steps in for Kawasaki Frontale.
  • 75' A meaty challenge results in booking for Ryoya Morishita on 75.
  • 80' 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.
  • 82' Another substitution for Nagoya Grampus to replace Yuki Soma by Manabu Saito on 82 minute.
  • 87' Nagoya Grampus looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Haruya Fujii scoring 1 goals.
  • Game over. The scoreline of 1-0 tells the full story of an entertaining encounter.
