Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds Nissan Stadium will turn into a battlefield for Yokohama F·Marinos and Kashima Antlers.
- 5' 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 Diego Pituca suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' Kashima Antlers looks like a favorite considering 2 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Leo Ceara scoring 1 goals.
- 15' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 20' It looks surprising Kashima Antlers does not make any changes. Takuma Nishimura has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 25' Ryotaro Nakamura needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.

- 40' Kashima Antlers are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 45' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Yokohama F·Marinos side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 50' Yuta Matsumura has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 55' The home supporters are growing impatient. Yokohama F·Marinos must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 60' 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.
- 65' The energy levels are beginning to show. Kevin Muscat might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 70' Yokohama F·Marinos currently sit 6 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 75' Kashima Antlers has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 2 of the last 2 meetings.
