Events

Match Events

0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Vissel Kobe is hosting V-Varen Nagasaki for another epic battle.
5' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
10' 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 Kim Seunggyu suffering a number of foals already.
15' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
20' Vissel Kobe 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.
25' Japan international Keita Nakamura has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
30' 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.
35' The 35-year-old Ryutaro Iio has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
40' Over 40 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
45' Both keepers have barely been tested. Vissel Kobe and V-Varen Nagasaki are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
50' Vissel Kobe currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
55' 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.
60' Supporters expect more eagerness from Masato Kurogi, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
65' Yuta Goke, a Japan , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
70' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
75' V-Varen Nagasaki fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
80' 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.
85' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
90' Vissel Kobe started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 90.
Game over. The scoreline of 1-1 tells the full story of an entertaining encounter.
