Match Events
- 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Nagoya Grampus is hosting Vegalta Sendai for another epic battle.
- 5' It looks like no one’s ball. Vegalta Sendai is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 10' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Nagoya Grampus needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
- 20' Nagoya Grampus started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 20.
- 25' Vegalta Sendai is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Shumpei Naruse made 417 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 35' Jakub Slowik has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 40' 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 Takumi Sasaki suffering a number of foals already.
- 42' Quentin Martinus puts Vegalta Sendai on the lead.
- 47' It looks surprising Vegalta Sendai does not make any changes. Takuma Nishimura has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 52' The travelling Vegalta Sendai supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 57' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 59' It is a substitution in Nagoya Grampus team. Manabu Saito is replaced by Naoki Maeda on 59 minute.
- 64' Nagoya Grampus is showing some good football. However, Nagoya Grampus are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 69' The supporters are chanting for Shogo Nakahara. He replaces Quentin Martinus on 69 minute.
- 72' The supporters are chanting for Yuki Soma. He replaces Mateus on 72 minute.
- 77' Sho Inagaki needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 12 Yellow cards this season.
- 79' Time for substitution for Vegalta Sendai. Yoshiki Matsushita is replaced by Rikiya Uehara.
- 80' Ryoya Morishita has so much to prove this time. He replaces Takuji Yonemoto on 80 minute.
- 82' The referee shows Nagoya Grampus player a Yellow card on 82.
- 87' 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.
- 90' The whistle greets Takayoshi Ishihara as he departs to be replaced by Koji Hachisuka.
- Another three points for Vegalta Sendai.
