Events
Match Events
- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Kawasaki Frontale and Yokohama F·Marinos has kicked off!
- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Takuya Kida made 302 appearances and scored 5 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 10' Over 10 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 15' Yokohama F·Marinos are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 20' Kawasaki Frontale currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 25' Teruhito Nakagawa is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Kawasaki Frontale tonight.
- 30' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Kawasaki Frontale and Yokohama F·Marinos are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 35' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 40' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 45' Yokohama F·Marinos is showing some good football. However, Yokohama F·Marinos are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 50' 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 Ippei Shinozuka suffering a number of foals already.
- 55' With 0 assists to his name this season, Hidemasa Morita is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Yokohama F·Marinos.
- 60' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 65' Yokohama F·Marinos come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 70' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 75' Shintaro Kurumaya is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Kawasaki Frontale so far.
- 80' 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.
- 85' Kengo Nakamura has been relatively quiet despite scoring 16 goals in his last 439 appearances.
- 90' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 2-0.
