Japan vs Spain 01.12.2022

Spain will go into their final game not only looking to seal a place in the next round but also cement their spot as the top team in their pool. The Spaniards were held to a 1-1 draw by Germany, meaning that qualification for the Round of 16 will have to wait till the final day despite amassing four points.

Before the start of hostilities in this group, the Germans and Spaniards were considered the favourites to top this pool, but only the La Furia Roja are living up to the billing. They opened their campaign with a 7-0 thumping of Costa Rica before being held by Germany in their last outing.

Japan also started their World Cup campaign on a bright note with a shock 2-1 win over Germany. Hajime Moriyasu’s men had to come from a goal down to claim a well-deserved 2-1 win. However, all that hard work seemed to have been undone unexpected loss to Costa Rica in their second group game.

Now, their hopes of progressing is still in their hands, but that would mean they have to win to guarantee themselves a place in the round of 16. Any result other than a win would mean that the Asians will have to depend on the outcome of the other group match between Germany and Costa Rica.

However, this game looks like the Spaniards will get an easy win.
