Live comments

  • 0' - KICK OFF: Albirex Niigata gets underway.
  • 5' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Ryotaro Ito, as he is very good at scoring at Saitama Stadium 2002 with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 10' - Shusuke Ota puts Albirex Niigata on the lead.
  • 15' - Albirex Niigata is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 20' - Urawa Red Diamonds started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 20.
  • 25' - The travelling Albirex Niigata supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 30' - Yuto Horigome needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 34' - Goal! Hiroki Sakai scores his 8 goal in 399 matches.
  • 35' - Sensational shot from Hiroki Sakai. Urawa Red Diamonds is back in the lead.
  • 40' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 45' - Takahiro Sekine has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 47' - GOAL! Takahiro Akimoto scores on 45.
  • 52' - 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.
  • 57' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 57 minutes.
  • 62' - 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.
  • 67' - It looks surprising Urawa Red Diamonds does not make any changes. Gustavo Nescau has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 68' - Yoshio Koizumi is having his name booked by the referee on 68.
  • 69' - The whistle greets Shinzo Koroki as he departs to be replaced by Bryan Linssen.
  • 72' - The Albirex Niigata manager makes a substitution. Koji Suzuki departs to be replaced by Gustavo Nescau.
  • 76' - Kaito Yasui is replacing Tomoaki Okubo for the Urawa Red Diamonds side.
  • 81' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 82' - Yota Komi has so much to prove this time. He replaces Taiki Watanabe on 82 minute.
  • 83' - It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Danilo.
  • 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 Naoto Arai suffering a number of foals already.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Urawa Red Diamonds players.
