Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Yokohama F·Marinos to score. At the same time, Kashima Antlers does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 5' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 10' 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.
- 15' Shoma Doi has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 20' Kei Chinen has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 25' Kashima Antlers fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 30' Japan international Yuma Suzuki has been a key figure this campaign — 2 goals and 5 assists in the Array this season.
- 35' 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.
- 40' Both keepers have barely been tested. Yokohama F·Marinos and Kashima Antlers are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 45' Ryotaro Nakamura is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Yokohama F·Marinos tonight.
- 50' The energy levels are beginning to show. Kevin Muscat might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 55' Yokohama F·Marinos currently sit 6 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 60' Yokohama F·Marinos is showing some good football. However, Yokohama F·Marinos are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 65' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jun Ichimori made 416 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 70' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 75' Kota Mizunuma, a Japan , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 80' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 85' It looks like no one’s ball. Kashima Antlers is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 90' 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.
- 2-1 the final result. Kashima Antlers will be bitterly disappointed.
