Saudi Arabia vs Japan: Preview

Saudi Arabia has been having a great run in the third round of the Asian and Pacific World Cup Qualifiers. They have won both of their matches in Group B but still are somehow in the second place just after Australia. They went up against Oman in their last match and faced a huge competition from their opponents. Oman was able to do some quick counter attacks but still they were not able to find the net. Whereas Saudi Arabia kept the ball in their possession and did manage to find that much needed one chance at the 42nd minute of the game turning the course of the match in their favour. Saleh Al-Shehri scored that important goal for Saudi Arabia to secure that crucial 3 points in the match.

Japan will like to keep their hopes alive for the 2022 World Cup qualifiers and will be looking to work on their weaknesses to get stronger. With a win and a loss the Japan national team is currently in the 4th place in the Group B. Japan went against China in their last match and were in complete control of the match throughout the 90mins of the match. Japan were able to penetrate the Chinese defense many times but were not able to score that goal until the 40th minute. The Japanese striker Yuya Osako finally managed to put past the Chinese keeper to put Japan 1-0 ahead just before the first half. Many chances came for Japan later in the game but not one of them were converted ending the match in a 1-0 win for the Japanese National team.
