Maeda features in Japan’s shock win

Japan #Japan

Celtic striker Daizen Maeda played 57 minutes of Japan’s World Cup opener as they came from behind to stun Germany 2-1.

Maeda thought he’d opened the scoring in the first half, but his back-post finish was offside.

Japan now look forward to two further group games against Costa Rica and Spain as they aim to qualify for the knockout stages.
