While Japan certainly possess talented players and have not missed a World Cup since their 1998 debut, they consistently underwhelm once they arrive at the big show. This summer may not be any different for them, especially given the turmoil in terms of the now former head coach Vahid Halilhodzic being sacked one month ago. With players like Shinji Kagawa, or Keisuke Honda, Genki Haraguchi, or even Leicester City’s Shinji Okasaki, Japan will field the talent to win games.

  • Brentford Earn Promotion to EPL
    ARAB TIMES, SUNDAY, MAY 30, 2021 16 Italy’s Andrea Belotti, (left), scores during the friendly match between Italy and San Marino, at the Sardegna aren in Cagliari, Italy. Italy won 7-0. (AP) Sports Latest sports scores at — http://sports.arabtimesonline.com Japan book place in the third ‘round’ CHIBA, Japan, May 29, (AP): Yuya Osako scored five goals as Japan rout- ed Myanmar 10-0 to become the first team in Asia to secure a place in the third round of World Cup qualifying. China, which play Guam on Sun- day, still have much work to do. Takumi Minamino’s brace for Japan, and a goal each from Hide- masa Morita, Daichi Kamada and Ko Itakura, gave a weakened Myanmar their heaviest-ever defeat. Myanmar, which were missing several stars who had refused to play in protest at February’s military coup, hadn’t played an international match in 18 months because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The result was beyond doubt quick- ly. Osako scored three goals in the first half hour and another two in the second half at Fukuda Denshi Arena, which was closed to fans because of restrictions in place because of the coronavirus. SOCCER “We’ve shown that aggressive at- titude, to go for another goal even after the result was beyond doubt, and also not slacking off to keep a clean sheet,” head coach Hajime Moriyasu said, according to the Ky- odo news agency. “They were focused on playing at a high standard.” Japan has the best re- cord of all teams in the second round of Asian qualification, with 37 goals and none conceded in its six wins in Group F.
