Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds Edion Peace Wing Hiroshima will turn into a battlefield for Sanfrecce Hiroshima and Jubilo Iwata.
- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Pieros Sotiriou, as he is very good at scoring at Edion Peace Wing Hiroshima with 9 goals in the last 6 games.
- 10' It looks surprising Sanfrecce Hiroshima does not make any changes. Rei Hirakawa has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 15' Jubilo Iwata started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 15.
- 20' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 25' Sanfrecce Hiroshima 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.
- 30' Shunsuke Nishikubo needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 35' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 38' GOAL! Pieros Sotiriou scores on 38.
- 43' It looks like no one’s ball. Jubilo Iwata is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 48' 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 Naoto Arai suffering a number of foals already.
- 53' Shota Kaneko has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 58' The travelling Jubilo Iwata supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.

- 74' Matheus Peixoto is having his name booked by the referee on 74.
- 74' Bruno Jose has so much to prove this time. He replaces Rei Hirakawa on 74 minute.
- 79' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Matheus Peixoto made 240 appearances and scored 17 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 82' Jubilo Iwata manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Shun Nakamura is hanging Leo Gomes on the field on 82 minute.
- 86' The Sanfrecce Hiroshima manager makes a substitution. Naoto Arai departs to be replaced by Takaaki Shichi.
