Events

Match Events

  • 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Kawasaki Frontale and Nagoya Grampus has kicked off!
  • 3' The referee shows Kawasaki Frontale player a card on 3.
  • 8' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 13' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Nagoya Grampus needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 16' It is a substitution in Kawasaki Frontale team. Asahi Sasaki is replaced by Sai van Wermeskerken on 16 minute.
  • 21' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Kawasaki Frontale that had 439 games and scored 556 goals.

  • 31' Asahi Sasaki has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 36' 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.
