World Ranking:

  • Japan bossed the possession and had more than 70% of the ball, but hardly tested Argentina’s goalie Vanina Correa.

  • The 2015 beaten finalists will now be looking to make amends against Scotland in their next game.
  • Scotland meanwhile were at the wrong end of the result, losing 2-1 in a closely fought encounter against neighbours England.

Japan Team News:

  • Japan’s performance in the last game fell short of expectations. It also tells about the squad which is in transition and is being built to win a medal at Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
  • Japan may be considered a powerhouse in women football, but it’s quite remarkable that the team has 17 players playing at their first World Cup. Further evidence about the real ambition of this team.

  • Still, the world cup is too big a trophy for the experiments, and we expect Asako Takakura to make changes in personnel, considering Japan will have to get 3 points against Scotland to have a chance of progressing.
  • Japan employed a standard 4-4-2 formation against Argentine, which was later changed to 4-2-3-1 as they chased a goal.
