ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Asia’s unbeaten run at the FIFA World Cup 2026 has continued after Japan twice came from behind against the Netherlands to draw 2-2 in Dallas.
Goals from Keigo Nakamura and Daichi Kamada earned Japan a valuable point against the top-five ranked Dutch outfit.
To dissect the result we’re joined from Dallas by both Michael Church and ESPN Asia’s Gabe Tan to look at what the result means, Japan’s overall performance and injury concerns for Takefusa Kubo.
