0' The game is set. Sanfrecce Hiroshima kicks off things out of here…
5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
10' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
15' Mateus Moraes is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Sanfrecce Hiroshima tonight.
20' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
21' Kyohei Yoshino was booked on 21.
26' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
31' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Michael Skibbe will be considering his options from the bench.
33' That looks like a foul for a card for Gakuto Notsuda.
38' Japan international Tsukasa Morishima has been a key figure this campaign — 2 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
43' Both keepers have barely been tested. Sanfrecce Hiroshima and Yokohama FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.

53' Katsuya Iwatake has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.

61' It is a substitution in Sanfrecce Hiroshima team. Yusuke Chajima is replaced by Sota Koshimichi on 61 minute.

75' Fresh legs for Yokohama FC! Saulo Mineiro comes on to replace Sho Ito.
