Events
Match Events

- 21' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 21 minutes.
- 25' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Lukian.
- 28' A meaty challenge results in booking for Hiroyuki Mae on 28.
- 33' Nagoya Grampus started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 33.
- 38' It looks surprising Avispa Fukuoka does not make any changes. Keiya Sento has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 43' The referee shows Nagoya Grampus player a Red card on 43.
- 45' The whistle greets Keiya Sento as he departs to be replaced by Haruya Fujii.
- 50' Avispa Fukuoka is showing some good football. However, Avispa Fukuoka are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 55' Sho Inagaki has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 56' Avispa Fukuoka ring the changes. Yuji Kitajima has done his job and it is now time for Tatsuya Tanaka to step up.
- 58' The supporters are chanting for Leo Silva. He replaces Mateus on 58 minute.

- 82' Mitch Langerak has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 5 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 87' 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 Shun Nakamura suffering a number of foals already.
- 89' What composure from Juanma! The Spain international strokes it home. 2-1.
- 90' Time for substitution for Nagoya Grampus. Yuichi Maruyama is replaced by Ryotaro Ishida.
