Kashima Antlers midfielder Gaku Shibasaki sent in a free kick in the 31st minute, and teammate Daigo Nishi was then fouled inside the box by Atletico Nacional forward Orlando Berrio.
After receiving information about a missed incident from video assistant referee Danny Makkelie, Kassai drew an imaginary square with his hands to indicate that he would conduct a review of the footage via a monitor on the sidelines.
