Live comments

  • 0' - We are underway at Saitama Stadium 2002. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Urawa Red Diamonds that had 323 games and scored 274 goals.
  • 10' - GOAL! Shusuke Ota scores on 10.
  • 15' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Alexander Scholz made 199 appearances and scored 13 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 20' - Yota Komi needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 25' - Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 30' - 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.
  • 34' - GOAL! Hiroki Sakai scores on 34.
  • 35' - Sensational shot from Hiroki Sakai. Urawa Red Diamonds is back in the lead.
  • 40' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 45' - It looks surprising Urawa Red Diamonds does not make any changes. Taiki Watanabe has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 47' - GOAL! Takahiro Akimoto scores on 45.
  • 52' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Thomas Deng, as he is very good at scoring at Saitama Stadium 2002 with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
  • 57' - It looks like no one’s ball. Albirex Niigata is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 62' - Urawa Red Diamonds started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 62.
  • 67' - 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 Yuzuru Shimada suffering a number of foals already.
  • 68' - Urawa Red Diamonds player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 69' - It is a substitution in Urawa Red Diamonds team. Shinzo Koroki is replaced by Bryan Linssen on 69 minute.

  • 76' - Kaito Yasui is replacing Tomoaki Okubo for the Urawa Red Diamonds side.
  • 81' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 81 minutes.
  • 82' - Yota Komi is replacing Taiki Watanabe for the Albirex Niigata side.
  • 83' - A meaty challenge results in booking for Danilo on 83.
  • 88' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • Another three points for Urawa Red Diamonds.
