Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at Saitama Stadium 2002. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
  • 10' Supporters expect more eagerness from Gotoku Sakai, as he is very good at scoring at Saitama Stadium 2002 with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 15' 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.
  • 20' It’s gonna be a card for Kaito Yasui.
  • 25' It looks surprising Urawa Red Diamonds does not make any changes. Yuya Osako has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 30' It looks like no one’s ball. Vissel Kobe is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 35' 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 Koya Yuruki suffering a number of foals already.
  • 40' Ryoma Watanabe needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 45' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Vissel Kobe needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 46' Time for substitution for Vissel Kobe. Yuya Osako is replaced by Haruya Ide.
  • 47' GOAL! Isaac Kiese Thelin scores on 47. Assisted by Matheus Savio
  • 52' The travelling Vissel Kobe supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 57' 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.
  • 62' It’s high time Takayuki Yoshida made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 65' The supporters are chanting for Kai Shibato. He replaces Kaito Yasui on 65 minute.
  • 66' Vissel Kobe manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Koya Yuruki is hanging Taisei Miyashiro on the field on 66 minute.
  • 71' Marius Hoibraten has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 12 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 74' Time for substitution for Vissel Kobe. Yuya Kuwasaki is replaced by Nanasei Iino.
  • 76' The whistle greets Takuro Kaneko as he departs to be replaced by Yusuke Matsuo.
  • 81' Vissel Kobe is showing some good football. However, Vissel Kobe are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 86' Urawa Red Diamonds is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 89' The Vissel Kobe manager makes a substitution. Katsuya Nagato departs to be replaced by Jean Patric.
