Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Sanfrecce Hiroshima to score. At the same time, Matsumoto Yamaga FC does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 5' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 10' 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.
- 15' The travelling Matsumoto Yamaga FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 20' It looks surprising Matsumoto Yamaga FC does not make any changes. Tatsuya Morita has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 25' Ibuki Fujita has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 30' 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.
- 35' 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 Daizen Maeda suffering a number of foals already.
- 40' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 45' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 45 minutes.
- 50' Supporters expect more eagerness from Eduardo, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.

- 67' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Gakuto Notsuda made 275 appearances and scored 6 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 68' Taro Sugimoto has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ryo Nagai on 68 minute.
- 73' Matsumoto Yamaga FC is showing some good football. However, Matsumoto Yamaga FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
