- 5' Sanfrecce Hiroshima are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 10' 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 Kota Mizunuma suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' Sanfrecce Hiroshima are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 20' Thiago Martins has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
