Arsenal stars Matt Turner and Takehiro Tomiyasu faced off against each other on the international stage on Friday when Japan played the USA in a friendly. It was the former that came out on top in a game they dominated, but only came away as 2-0 victors thanks to goals from Daichi Kamada and Kaoru Mitoma.
It could have been much worse for the USMNT had it not been for Gunners goalkeeper Turner, who made six saves to stop an even larger deficit. The official USMNT website pointed out that the 28-year-old was the "only positive" for his side in the match, giving him a rating of 6.5 out of ten.
In a tough game, the American faced 16 shots from the opposition, eight of those being on target. One of those was a low save to deny Kamada at the hour mark to keep the game at just a one-goal margin at the time.
