- 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at !
- 3' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Hiroshi Futami.
- 8' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Mitsunari Musaka made 375 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 13' 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 Renato suffering a number of foals already.
- 18' 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.
- 23' Shimizu S-Pulse are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 28' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Shimizu S-Pulse that had 375 games and scored 293 goals.
- 33' Nagoya Grampus currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.

- 63' Naoki Maeda is replacing Aria Hasegawa for the Nagoya Grampus side.
- 68' Douglas adds to his 0 season tally! Shimizu S-Pulse lead 0-1 — and this changes everything.
