- 45' The 39-year-old Yota Akimoto has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 50' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Toru Oniki will be considering his options from the bench.

- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 0-0.
