On December 5, the Round of 16 FIFA World Cup 2022 match of JPN Vs CRO will take place at 3:00 PM GMT.
Japan and Croatia will face off in the fifth Round of 16 matches of the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Japan triumphed against two of the biggest teams in the competition, Germany, and Spain, to win a group that also featured Spain. Croatia drew 0-0 with Belgium and 0-0 with Morocco, which ultimately served them well when they trounced Canada 4-1.
Overview JPN Vs CRO
As of right now, Japan is having a dream run at FIFA 2022. Germany was beaten by the giant killers, who ultimately eliminated the four-time world champions from the world cup. Additionally, Spain was defeated by the Samurai Blue, moving them up to second place in the group. Croatia, on the other side, hasn’t lost a match since the competition started.
Japan
Despite having never previously defeated a World Cup winner, Japan won the group of death. This time, they took out two world champions in a three-day stretch. Japan will thus feel confident throughout its most successful World Cup campaign in history. Japan’s excellent defensive performance was crucial in its victory over Spain, and similar tactics may be used against Croatia as well. They were able to capitalize on the few openings they generated in that game, but additional time and perhaps penalties could be needed in this one.
Croatia
It’s interesting to note that Zlatko Dali’s squad has also had success using defensive tactics. After 90 minutes, the draw seems like good value because Croatia would likely be pleased to prevent Japan from scoring in this game. The runners-up from last year have gone nine games without losing, winning six times and drawing three times. They haven’t dropped a game since June when Austria crushed them 3-0.
