In the J1 League clash on 17 May 2025, Yokohama FC emerged victorious over Shonan Bellmare with a narrow 1-0 win. The decisive moment came early in the first half when Yokohama FC capitalized on their opportunity to score the only goal of the match at 25:10. This early lead allowed Yokohama to dictate the pace of the game, focusing on structured defense and limiting Shonan Bellmare's attacking opportunities.

Analyzing the match statistics, Shonan Bellmare had a significant edge in set-piece situations with eight corner kicks compared to Yokohama FC's three. However, they failed to convert these chances into goals. Their inability to capitalize on these opportunities highlighted a lack of clinical finishing and possibly ineffectiveness in aerial challenges in the final third. Yokohama FC's disciplined defense ensured that these set-pieces did not translate into threatening attempts on goal.

Disciplinary actions were reasonably balanced, with Shonan Bellmare receiving one yellow card and Yokohama FC maintaining a clean disciplinary record. The lack of red cards suggests that both teams managed to maintain composure, which helped Yokohama FC in keeping their defensive structure intact throughout the match. The key factor in Yokohama FC's victory was their early goal and strategic focus on defending their narrow lead, efficiently disrupting Shonan Bellmare's rhythm and creativity.
