Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Toyota Stadium. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Mihailo Petrović will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 10' The travelling Fagiano Okayama FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 15' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Fagiano Okayama FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 20' Kota Kawano has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 7 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 25' Lucao, a Brazil , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 30' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 35' Nagoya Grampus has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
  • 40' A quiet spell here at Toyota Stadium. Nagoya Grampus seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 45' The home supporters are growing impatient. Nagoya Grampus must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 46' Nagoya Grampus ring the changes. Ryuji Izumi has done his job and it is now time for Hidemasa Koda to step up.
  • 51' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 56' Masaya Matsumoto has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 59' Jun Nishikawa is ready to make an impact after coming on for Takaya Kimura at the 59 minute mark.
  • 64' It looks surprising Fagiano Okayama FC does not make any changes. Daichi Tagami has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 65' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Hidemasa Koda makes it 1-0.
  • 67' The Fagiano Okayama FC bench stirs into life. Masaya Matsumoto is withdrawn and Leonardo Gaucho gets his opportunity.
  • 70' Kennedy Egbus Mikuni gets the nod from Nagoya Grampus. He replaces Tsukasa Morishima and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 75' 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 Werik suffering a number of foals already.
  • 80' Another change for Fagiano Okayama FC made on 80 minute. Ataru Esaka leaves to be changed by Kota Kawano.
  • 83' A moment of madness from Ataru Esaka on 83 minutes earns him a card. Fagiano Okayama FC will be frustrated.
  • 85' Fagiano Okayama FC player sees a card in front of him.
  • 89' What composure from Daichi Tagami! The Japan international strokes it home. 1-1.
  • The final score is 1-1.
