Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Shonan Bellmare gets underway.
- 5' Takashi Sawada has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Yota Akimoto made 418 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
- 20' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 25' Ryunosuke Noda is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for V-Varen Nagasaki tonight.
- 30' Shunsuke Kikuchi has been relatively quiet despite scoring 15 goals in his last 418 appearances.
- 35' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Shonan Bellmare that had 418 games and scored 315 goals.
- 40' Daiki Sugioka needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
- 45' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 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 Ben Halloran suffering a number of foals already.
- 55' The 36-year-old Kazunari Ono has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 60' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Shonan Bellmare and V-Varen Nagasaki are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 65' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 70' Shonan Bellmare 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.
- 75' With 0 assists to his name this season, Andre Bahia is clearly more than just a goal scorer for V-Varen Nagasaki.
- 80' It is a cagey affair so far. Shonan Bellmare in their trying to find a way past V-Varen Nagasaki's compact .
- 85' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 90' The energy levels are beginning to show. Cho Kwijea might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 2-1 the final result. V-Varen Nagasaki will be bitterly disappointed.
