Match Events
- 0' Welcome to that hosts another battle between Matsumoto Yamaga FC and Urawa Red Diamonds.
- 5' The travelling Urawa Red Diamonds supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 10' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 15' With 0 assists to his name this season, Kazuki Nagasawa is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Urawa Red Diamonds.
- 20' It looks like no one’s ball. Urawa Red Diamonds is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 25' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Yasuharu Sorimachi will be considering his options from the bench.
- 30' Both keepers have barely been tested. Matsumoto Yamaga FC and Urawa Red Diamonds are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 35' The energy levels are beginning to show. Oswaldo de Oliveira might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 40' Urawa Red Diamonds come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 45' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 45 minutes.
- 50' Matsumoto Yamaga FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 55' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 60' Urawa Red Diamonds are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 65' 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 Ryo Nagai suffering a number of foals already.
- 68' Poor challenge from Paulinho. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 72' Shinzo Koroki has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 72 minutes.
- 75' A tactical swap from Matsumoto Yamaga FC — Yamato Machida on, Daizen Maeda off on 75 minutes.

- 85' Daisuke Suzuki is replacing Ryota Moriwaki for the Urawa Red Diamonds side.
- 89' Quenten Martinus gets the nod from Urawa Red Diamonds. He replaces Yosuke Kashiwagi and will look to change the dynamic.
