Events
Match Events

- 5' Kawasaki Frontale have won 583 goals from 452 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 10' Shonan Bellmare are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 15' Manabu Saito has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 13 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 16' A moment of madness from Shintaro Kurumaya on 16 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Kawasaki Frontale will be frustrated.
- 18' Goal! Yu Kobayashi scores his 80 goal in 452 matches.
- 23' It looks like no one’s ball. Kawasaki Frontale is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 28' Over 28 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
