Live comments

  • 0' - The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Belgium and Japan has kicked off!
  • 5' - The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Thibaut Courtois suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' - Japan seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 15' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Japan needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 20' - It looks surprising Japan does not make any changes. Dries Mertens has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 25' - It looks like no one’s ball. Belgium is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 30' - Belgium is showing some good football. However, Belgium are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 35' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 40' - It’s a booking for Japan player. Gaku Shibasaki gets a Yellow card.
  • 45' - It’s high time Roberto Martinez made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 48' - Japan is taking the lead after the goal scored by Genki Haraguchi on 48.
  • 52' - What a strike from Takashi Inui! The score is 0-2.
  • 57' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 57 minutes.
  • 62' - looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 65' - Another substitution for Belgium to replace Dries Mertens by Marouane Fellaini on 65 minute.
  • 69' - What a strike from Jan Vertonghen! The score is 1-2.
  • 74' - What an equalizer from Marouane Fellaini!
  • 79' - Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 81' - Another substitution for Japan to replace Gaku Shibasaki by Hotaru Yamaguchi on 81 minute.
  • 86' - Kevin De Bruyne has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 31 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 90' - Goal! Nacer Chadli scores his 18 goal in 361 matches.
  • The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Japan.
