Events
Match Events
- 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and Vissel Kobe launch into their encounter with Avispa Fukuoka.
- 5' Vissel Kobe currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 10' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 15' 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.
- 17' Yuji Kitajima picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 22' 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 Kazuya Konno suffering a number of foals already.
- 27' Vissel Kobe has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 2 of the last 2 meetings.
- 32' 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.
- 37' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 42' 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.
- 46' The Avispa Fukuoka manager makes a substitution. Yuji Kitajima departs to be replaced by Kazuya Konno.
- 51' Vissel Kobe is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 56' Supporters expect more eagerness from Masato Shigemi, as he is very good at scoring at Noevir Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 59' The Vissel Kobe manager makes a substitution. Koya Yuruki departs to be replaced by Daiju Sasaki.
- 60' Another substitution for Avispa Fukuoka to replace Tatsuya Tanaka by Masato Yuzawa on 60 minute.
- 65' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 67' The whistle greets Wellington as he departs to be replaced by Shahab Zahedi Tabar.
- 68' A change in the Vissel Kobe ranks — Yosuke Ideguchi exits the field as Takahiro Ogihara enters on 68.
- 72' The deadlock is broken! Taisei Miyashiro gets on the scoresheet on 72 minutes.
- 77' Avispa Fukuoka come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 81' Fresh legs for Avispa Fukuoka! Yuto Hiratsuka comes on to replace Masato Shigemi.
- 86' It looks surprising Vissel Kobe does not make any changes. Yuya Osako has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 88' The Vissel Kobe manager makes a substitution. Ryo Hatsuse departs to be replaced by Yuki Honda.
- 89' Jean Patric gets the nod from Vissel Kobe. He replaces Taisei Miyashiro and will look to change the dynamic.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 1-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
