Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo gets underway.
  • 5' The 29-year-old Koya Kitagawa has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 10' It looks like no one’s ball. Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
  • 20' 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.
  • 25' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 30' Both keepers have barely been tested. Shimizu S-Pulse and Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 35' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 40' Shimizu S-Pulse started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 40.
  • 45' Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 50' 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 Ryosuke Shindo suffering a number of foals already.
  • 55' Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo 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.
  • 60' Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 65' South Korea international Hwang Seokho has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 70' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 75' Kazuki Fukai is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo tonight.
  • 80' A quiet spell here at . Shimizu S-Pulse seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 85' Douglas has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 90' Over 90 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 1-2 the final result. Shimizu S-Pulse will be bitterly disappointed.
