Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Shonan Bellmare kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' The travelling Shonan Bellmare supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 10' Wellington puts Shonan Bellmare on the lead.
  • 15' 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 Naoya Fukumori suffering a number of foals already.
  • 20' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 25' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 30' Shonan Bellmare is showing some good football. However, Shonan Bellmare are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 35' 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.
  • 40' Vegalta Sendai 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.
  • 45' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Shonan Bellmare that had 418 games and scored 315 goals.
  • 50' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 55' Supporters expect more eagerness from Rikiya Uehara, as he is very good at scoring at Yurtec Stadium Sendai with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
  • 59' The referee calls foul for Shuto Yamamoto. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 64' It’s high time Makoto Teguramori made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 67' Naoki Yamada is replacing Akimi Barada for the Shonan Bellmare side.
  • 68' It is a substitution in Vegalta Sendai team. Kunimitsu Sekiguchi is replaced by Chihiro Kato on 68 minute.
  • 73' Another substitution for Vegalta Sendai to replace Shingo Tomita by Foguinho on 73 minute.
  • 74' The whistle greets Wellington as he departs to be replaced by Yuki Ohashi.
  • 75' Goal! Takuya Okamoto scores his 17 goal in 418 matches.
  • 80' Shonan Bellmare is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 85' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 85 minutes.
  • 86' It is a substitution in Vegalta Sendai team. Takayoshi Ishihara is replaced by Kyohei Yoshino on 86 minute.
  • 89' Takuma Nishimura was booked on 89.
  • 90' Time for substitution for Shonan Bellmare. Taiyo Hiraoka is replaced by Hirokazu Ishihara.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Shonan Bellmare players.
