Live comments

  • 0' - In just a few seconds Saitama Stadium 2002 will turn into a battlefield for Urawa Red Diamonds and Albirex Niigata.
  • 5' - Yoshio Koizumi needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 10' - Goal! Shusuke Ota scores his 3 goal in 16 matches.
  • 15' - looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 20' - Urawa Red Diamonds is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 25' - Albirex Niigata is showing some good football. However, Albirex Niigata are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 30' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 30 minutes.
  • 34' - GOAL! Hiroki Sakai scores on 34.
  • 35' - Goal! Hiroki Sakai scores his 8 goal in 399 matches.
  • 40' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Yuzuru Shimada made 170 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 45' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Albirex Niigata needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 47' - GOAL! Takahiro Akimoto scores on 45.
  • 52' - Urawa Red Diamonds 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.
  • 57' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Gustavo Nescau, as he is very good at scoring at Saitama Stadium 2002 with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 62' - 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.
  • 67' - Urawa Red Diamonds started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 67.
  • 68' - That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Yoshio Koizumi.
  • 69' - Bryan Linssen is replacing Shinzo Koroki for the Urawa Red Diamonds side.
  • 72' - Gustavo Nescau is replacing Koji Suzuki for the Albirex Niigata side.
  • 76' - Kaito Yasui is replacing Tomoaki Okubo for the Urawa Red Diamonds side.
  • 81' - 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.
  • 82' - Time for substitution for Albirex Niigata. Taiki Watanabe is replaced by Yota Komi.
  • 83' - The referee shows Albirex Niigata player a Yellow card 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 Yota Komi suffering a number of foals already.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Urawa Red Diamonds players.
