Snippet:
Japan’s 4-0 win over Tunisia on Saturday has left Hajime Moriyasu’s side in a strong position to reach the knockout stage at the World Cup. Daichi Kamada’s early strike, Ayase Ueda’s brace and Junya Ito’s cool-headed finish allowed Moriyasu to bring on several substitutes in the final 20 minutes once the result was secured.
