Japan has some impressive results lately.

I wonder if they will translate to winning the Asian Cup in 2024, or the “park the bus for 90 minutes” tactics that AFC teams deploy against them give them more trouble than actually better teams who play more open.

Just tuned in and it’s already 1-0 😳

Uh, lousy touch, was going out, dragged his foot and caught the GK arm …

That started pretty much how I expected it to.

​

No Eustaquio. Pain.

Having to pause for a moment to look for Junya Ito since he stopped dyeing his hair haha

Wish Mitoma was playing, but great time for the other players to get some minutes. Kubo should get some time around 60-70mins in

Already 1-0?

You know shit is fucked when even David is now missing pens

Nice try by Phonzy

this japan team looks pretty dangerous, especially if/when mitoma gets back

Great header!

canada seems really sloppy with possession, just can’t string together crisp passes

wtf is Johnston doing. Gift after gift.

Another manager about to get the sack or what?

my goodness davies
