  • 5' It’s high time Hideo Oshima made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 10' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Kawasaki Frontale needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 15' What a strike from Lazar Romanic! The score is 0-1.
  • 17' The referee shows Yokohama F.Marinos player a card on 17.
  • 22' Il-kyu Park needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 27' Kawasaki Frontale is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 32' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 37' Kawasaki Frontale started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 37.
  • 42' It looks like no one’s ball. Yokohama F·Marinos is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 46' Another substitution for Kawasaki Frontale to replace Marcinho by Ten Miyagi on 46 minute.
  • 48' GOAL! Jun Amano scores on 45. Assisted by Kota Watanabe
  • 53' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Yokohama F·Marinos that had 302 games and scored 556 goals.
  • 58' The travelling Kawasaki Frontale supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 60' The supporters are chanting for Tomoki Kondo. He replaces Yuri Araujo on 60 minute.
  • 65' Kawasaki Frontale is showing some good football. However, Kawasaki Frontale are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 70' Supporters expect more eagerness from Erison, as he is very good at scoring at Nissan Stadium with 2 goals in the last 2 games.
  • 75' It looks surprising Yokohama F·Marinos does not make any changes. Ten Miyagi has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 77' Ryuki Osa has so much to prove this time. He replaces Tatsuya Ito on 77 minute.
  • 81' The whistle greets Jordy Croux as he departs to be replaced by Hiroto Asada.
  • 86' So Kawahara is replacing Yuki Yamamoto for the Kawasaki Frontale side.
  • 90' A meaty challenge results in booking for Erison on 90.
  • 90' Another substitution for Kawasaki Frontale to replace Yasuto Wakizaka by Soma Kanda on 90 minute.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Kawasaki Frontale players.
