Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Kashima Antlers kicks off things out of here…
- 5' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 10' It looks like no one’s ball. Nagoya Grampus is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 15' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 20' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Kashima Antlers winning 100% of all matches.
- 25' Kashima Antlers is showing some good football. However, Kashima Antlers are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 30' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Nagoya Grampus and Kashima Antlers are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 35' Kashima Antlers started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 35.
- 38' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Koki Machida on 38 minutes.
- 43' Goal! Shinnosuke Nakatani scores his 21 goal in 444 matches.
- 48' Koki Machida is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Nagoya Grampus tonight.
- 53' The home supporters are growing impatient. Nagoya Grampus must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 58' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Naoki Maeda made 444 appearances and scored 36 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 63' The supporters are chanting for Shintaro Nago. He replaces Yasushi Endo on 63 minute.
- 68' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 73' Ayase Ueda has so much to prove this time. He replaces Shoma Doi on 73 minute.
- 78' Over 78 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 81' A tactical swap from Nagoya Grampus — Shumpei Fukahori on, Gabriel Xavier off on 81 minutes.
- 86' With 0 assists to his name this season, Gabriel Xavier is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Kashima Antlers.
- 89' A moment of madness from Kazuya Miyahara on 89 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Nagoya Grampus will be frustrated.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 0-1.
