ቱኒዚያ ከ ጃፓን

Japan swept Tunisia aside 4-0 at the Estadio Monterrey, in a match that also marked the 1000th game in World Cup history. Daichi Kamada's goal inside four minutes signalled what was coming, a one-sided Group F demolition. Kamada flicked in a Keito Nakamura cross at the near post on four minutes to draw first blood. Ayase Ueda doubled the lead in the 31st with a composed 18-yard strike, and Junya Ito rolled the third past keeper Dahmen in the 69th. Ueda completed his brace in the 82nd, looping home a Kaishu Sano delivery to seal the rout. No red cards, no penalties, Japan's dominance was clean and total. Tunisia are eliminated, their second heavy defeat following a 5-1 opening loss to Sweden, a brutal tournament for Hervé Renard's side. Japan, meanwhile, climb to four points in Group F alongside the Netherlands, announcing themselves as genuine contenders after becoming the first AFC nation to score four goals in a single World Cup match.
