Saudi Arabia - Japan 1:4
-('35) with Japan leading
('26), Saudi Arabia is attacking now and has some opportunities, the match
ahs a good tempo
-after the second goal ('38)
Takahara, Japan dominates again
halftime
-('54) Nanami? 0:3, Japan
clearly dominating, in this form they are the team to beat
-more opportunities for
Japan, with a more precise finishing the result would look even more horrible
for Saudi Arabia
-later in the second half
Saudi Arabaia can work out several opportunities, some big, when the Japanese
grip has loosened
-in the final minutes it
is Japan again
-('89) big talent Shinji
Ono has come in and, all alone, makes it 0:4
-('90) Japan lose concentration
and right away the captain heads a cross into his own goal - 1:4
-a shock result in a match
supposed to be a close encounter between two of the tournaments favorites.
Is it a Saudi crisis or have Japan really mutated to a top class team,
as the successes of the Under 20 and Under 23 teams suggest?
