leffe186 Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Japan game is bonkers. They sit back in a deep 5-4-1 for 10-15 mins, then get the ball, go upfield, have a shot and score. Just the perfect hit-them-on-the-break game. They’re 3-0 up with 23% possession and three shots. Third goal was absolutely fantastic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like no one other than Japan is really excelling at the moment! Although Australia will have the wind in their sales now, and still with Kerr to come back!!

I mean, this is their style, and it’s extremely effective. Just…everything absolutely went their way in the first half. That won’t happen every time.

We've played Japan a few times in recent years and just brushed them aside, but they've been in a 'transitional' period for years now! Maybe this is them finally transitioned!!

iklgizmo Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 USA started really well, very fast paced, but then as in the other games they just didn't look great after that! Portugal got amongst them and the longer it went on the more nervous they looked. Just didn't look like scoring, and Portugal should have won it at the end! They've got a canny easy run through the knockouts despite coming 2nd in the group, which is annoying Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
