- 5' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 7' What a strike from Ryoma Watanabe! The score is 0-1.
- 12' Urawa Red Diamonds 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.
- 17' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Nagoya Grampus and Urawa Red Diamonds are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 22' Over 22 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 27' Nagoya Grampus are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Urawa Red Diamonds's shape.
- 32' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 37' It’s a booking for Nagoya Grampus player. Takuya Uchida gets a card.
- 42' A quiet spell here at Toyota Stadium. Urawa Red Diamonds seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 46' The whistle greets Ola Solbakken as he departs to be replaced by Naoki Maeda.
- 51' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Thiago Santana made 316 appearances and scored 69 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 55' Yuki Nogami picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 57' A moment of madness from Takuya Uchida on 57 minutes earns him a card. Nagoya Grampus will be frustrated.
- 61' It is a substitution in Urawa Red Diamonds team. Hidetoshi Takeda is replaced by Takahiro Sekine on 61 minute.
- 62' Another substitution for Nagoya Grampus to replace Kensuke Nagai by Keiya Shiihashi on 62 minute.
- 67' 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 Yuya Yamagishi suffering a number of foals already.
- 68' A change in the Urawa Red Diamonds ranks — Naoki Maeda exits the field as Ken Iwao enters on 68.
- 71' A change in the Nagoya Grampus ranks — Kennedy Egbus Mikuni exits the field as Patric enters on 71.

- 81' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Tojiro Kubo on 81 minutes.
- 86' Nagoya Grampus is showing some good football. However, Nagoya Grampus are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 88' The Urawa Red Diamonds bench stirs into life. Takahiro Sekine is withdrawn and Ekanit Panya gets his opportunity.
- 90' Patric picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 0-1.
