  • 15' Kai Shibato has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 1 cards already picked up this season.
  • 20' Leandro is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Urawa Red Diamonds tonight.
  • 25' The travelling FC Tokyo supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 30' Yosuke Kashiwagi is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for FC Tokyo so far.
