Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Tōkyō Verdy kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' It’s high time Hiroshi Jofuku made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 10' A quiet spell here at Ajinomoto Stadium. Tōkyō Verdy seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 15' Kashiwa Reysol 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.
  • 20' It looks surprising Kashiwa Reysol does not make any changes. Rei Hirakawa has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 25' Both keepers have barely been tested. Tōkyō Verdy and Kashiwa Reysol are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 30' With 2 assists to his name this season, Daiki Fukazawa is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Tōkyō Verdy.
  • 35' Japan international Seiya Baba has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 40' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 40 minutes.
  • 45' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 50' Ryosuke Kojima is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Tōkyō Verdy so far.
  • 55' Yuki Kakita, a Japan , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 60' The travelling Kashiwa Reysol supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 65' Kashiwa Reysol fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 70' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Kashiwa Reysol winning 100% of all matches.
  • 73' Tokyo Verdy player sees a card in front of him.
  • 78' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 83' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 88' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 90' What a moment for Yuta Arai! That strike on 90 puts his side firmly in control.
  • Another three points for Tōkyō Verdy.
