  • 5' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Myung-Hwi Kim will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 10' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 15' Yuji Kitajima has been relatively quiet despite scoring 1 goals in his last 204 appearances.
  • 20' 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 Hikaru Maeda suffering a number of foals already.
  • 25' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?

  • 56' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 61' Avispa Fukuoka 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.

  • 71' Sonosuke Sato is ready to make an impact after coming on for Masato Shigemi at the 71 minute mark.
