Japan and Sweden duke it out for a place in the last 32 of the World Cup on Thursday at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
The Samurai Blue is in pole position to finish as one of Group F‘s top two having collected four points to date, following up its draw with the Netherlands by hammering Tunisia. Japan is all but certain of progression to the last 32 already, but a draw or win over Sweden would ensure it finishes as the leader or runner-up of the group.
