Japan got 13 shots on goal with 4 of them on target. Daizen Maeda (43') was the scorer for Japan. Croatia won the match 3-1 in a dramatic penalty shootout.

Brazil | WWWWLW
Brazil will come into the match following on from a 4-1 WC22 win with the eclipse of Korea Republic in their previous fixture.
In that game, Brazil had 53% possession and 18 shots at goal with 9 on target. For Brazil, the scorers were Vinicius Júnior (7'), Neymar (13'), Richarlison (29') and Lucas Paquetá (36'). Korea Rep. had 8 shots at goal with 6 of them on target. Seung-ho Paik (76') was the scorer for Korea Republic.
A run of very capable displays from the Brazil defensive unit has seen their ‘goals against’ tally amounting to 3 from their previous 6 fixtures combined. Over that same time, their own attack force has managed to score 15. Despite that, it remains to be seen whether such a trend might be sustained in this next game. #KR | #EPICSPORTS
