- 25' 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.
- 30' Taishi Taguchi has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 35' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 40' The travelling Jubilo Iwata supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.

- 85' 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 Keita Nakamura suffering a number of foals already.
