- 5' Yokohama F·Marinos are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Kashima Antlers backline.
- 10' Kota Mizunuma has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 1 goals to his name this season.
- 15' Yokohama F·Marinos 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.
- 20' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 25' The 33-year-old Ken Matsubara has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 30' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 35' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 40' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 45' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 50' Kashima Antlers has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 2 of the last 2 meetings.
- 55' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 55 minutes.
- 60' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Kashima Antlers needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.

- 75' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Yokohama F·Marinos side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 80' 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 Naomichi Ueda suffering a number of foals already.
- 85' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 90' Yokohama F·Marinos have won 556 goals from 302 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
