  • 10' - What a strike from Shusuke Ota! The score is 0-1.
  • 15' - 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 Yuto Horigome suffering a number of foals already.

  • 47' - Goal! Takahiro Akimoto scores his 6 goal in 323 matches.
