CGTN Sports Talk EP203 Japan shine over Germany.mp3
Japan secured a second valuable win for an Asian team over a traditional footballing powerhouse at the FIFA World Cup in Qatar after defeating Germany 2-1 in Group E.
As Spain dominated Costa Rica 7-0 in the other game in the group, Germany are now in a very unfavorable situation in the race for Round of 16 qualification.
In Group F, Belgium struggled against Canada. The Canadians wasted 21 shots and one penalty, but Belgium won 1-0 thanks to Michy Batshuayi's volley in the box.
The victory put the European "Red Devils" at the top of the group after Croatia and Morocco played out a goalless draw in the other game.
