Group E: Spain, Costa Rica, Germany, Japan (Japan and Spain qualify)


Recommended Posts

I know Japan won the first game, and I admittedly missed the second half, but I actually think they might be shit. Certainly less than the sum of their parts and really hard to watch compared to past Japan teams.

 

Can't believe for a second they wouldn't be better off just playing the likes of Mitoma or Minamino upfront instead of the strikers they've tried out. This bloke Ueda looks like a total imposter. And it is flabbergasting to me that Kyogo didn't make the squad.

31 degrees, one team set up only to avoid embarrassment, another team without the pace or guile to break it down. No surprise the tempo is absolutely null. 


Japan were shit last game until the manager made changes. Making early changes here, hoping it pays off.

I am no Japanese football judge but their team selection does seem weird, Tomiyasu is surely deserving of a place too

 

Tomiyasu is nursing an injury apparently. But otherwise the selections seem to me to be a waste of resources.
