Bahrain will be hoping to better their 2004 performance when they finished fourth while favorites Japan have won the AFC Asian Cup four times.

Japanese media is crap. One of our best player is out…
Japan doesn't have any other options for Goalkeeping? Zion Suzuki is kind of young and isn't confident enough in my honest opinion.
Kubo and Mitoma are such a deadly winger combination
To yama, to kanava!
Kubo I definitely Japan's best
Japanβs team is skillful, but appropriately used. They dribble when they hv to, pass when they can. What a team
That jap keeper is everything except japanese. ππππππ
Betting my money on Japan
Suzuki has to be worst keeper in the tournament and the worst In Japanese football since 1990!
He makes mistakes in every match costs them goals!
Is he really the best Japan has in GK position??
What a quality Japan plays at. Different class than rest of the competition. And how their subs came in with even more quality is insane.
The Japanese team lacks only one thing, which is height, which would have been a surprise to the strongest international teams in football. Bahrain's goal was a mistake by the defender. If it were not for this mistake, Bahrain would dream of scoring a goal against Japan
So does japan not have a better GK to put in? He's concede goals every match so far
how can you have no replay of a goal? wtf
MITOMAAAAAAA
I swear the Japan GK has made a mistake in every game
For those people wanting a match between Korea and Japan, it seems unlikely to happen. Korea gets just 2 days to rest after playing 120 minutes against KSA. Australia gets 4 days rest. No team can come back on 2 days rest, it's a risk to player safety. Australia should certainly win barring a miracle.
Bahrain was sucks
Congrats, Japan. Hope to see the final game with Korea.
Can anyone stop Japan? We'll find out! They are the favorites to win it. Their playing is very good and fluid.ππͺπ
Jordan too wouldnβt have beaten Japan but I think they would have played better against Japan than Bahrain. They were so overplayed.
Japan's weakness is their keeper.
stealing balls left and right….
poor Bahrain, they got set up to face Japan π
GANBARE
Japan is awesome but I dont like there Goalie
Japan needs a new goalkeeper. This goalkeeper been lacking
I will say it again, the worst enemy for Japan is the goal keeper.
The fact that mitoma started benchπ
How come Japanese goal keeper looks like he is from Bahrain?
These Japanese take courses at university to play football , like they study it as science π
BlueLock program looks to be paying off
There was no way he was going to be able to grab the ball and clear it at the same time for that goal he needed to either fist pump hit it up or slap it out itβs a very tough situation. (first goal against Japan)
Japan will win this Asian Cup. I am from Uzbekistan
Congratulations Japan π
Japan looks better than Korea
