After scoring two goals as a substitute in the group stage, Ritsu Doan was named to Japan’s starting lineup. Wataru Endo, who came in as a late substitution against Spain, replaces Ao Tanaka in the starting lineup. Borna Barisic replaces the injured Borna Sosa at left-back for Croatia. Bruno Petkovic starts ahead of Marko Livaja in attack.

 

Daizen Maeda scored just before halftime from a well-worked short corner to give Japan a 1-0 halftime lead. Japan won a short corner, and Doan crossed inside the penalty area. Yoshida won the initial header, and Maeda was the first to respond to the knockdown, shooting it into the Croatia net.
