Live comments

  • 0' - We are underway at Saitama Stadium 2002. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' - The travelling Albirex Niigata supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 10' - Shusuke Ota puts Albirex Niigata on the lead.
  • 15' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 20' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Albirex Niigata that had 16 games and scored 18 goals.
  • 25' - looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 30' - Urawa Red Diamonds is showing some good football. However, Urawa Red Diamonds are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 34' - What an equalizer from Hiroki Sakai!
  • 35' - Urawa Red Diamonds is taking the lead after the goal scored by Hiroki Sakai on 35.
  • 40' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Michael James Fitzgerald, as he is very good at scoring at Saitama Stadium 2002 with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 45' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Urawa Red Diamonds needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 47' - What a strike from Takahiro Akimoto! The score is 3-1.
  • 52' - It looks like no one’s ball. Urawa Red Diamonds is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 57' - While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 62' - It’s high time Rikizo Matsuhashi made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 67' - Ryosuke Kojima has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 68' - Yoshio Koizumi was booked on 68.
  • 69' - The whistle greets Shinzo Koroki as he departs to be replaced by Bryan Linssen.
  • 72' - The whistle greets Koji Suzuki as he departs to be replaced by Gustavo Nescau.
  • 76' - Another substitution for Urawa Red Diamonds to replace Tomoaki Okubo by Kaito Yasui on 76 minute.
  • 81' - It looks surprising Urawa Red Diamonds does not make any changes. Yuto Horigome has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 82' - Time for substitution for Albirex Niigata. Taiki Watanabe is replaced by Yota Komi.
  • 83' - Danilo was booked on 83.
  • 88' - 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 Takahiro Sekine suffering a number of foals already.
  • The final score is 2-1.
