All the precedents of the matches of Spain and Japan

Last update 19 April, 2022 by Alberto Llopis

There is less left to enjoy the best football again in one of the most prestigious sports competitions on the entire planet Earth.: the World Cup. Qatar 2022 Starting next November, it will host a new edition of the World Cup tournament where they will participate, and they will also face, these two selections: Spain y Japan, framed in Group E.

Both will meet in the group stage and will fight for a place in the next round. It should be noted that the Spanish and Japanese do not keep a large record of direct duels throughout their history., sino más bien todo lo contrario. Next, we detail the precedents.

The precedents of the matches between Spain and Japan

Mexico Olympic Games 1968

The first time that these two national teams measured their forces was in the Juegos Olímpicos de 1968 celebrados en Mexico. That initial chapter ended with a 0-0 draw after a very close duel that belonged to the third day of the group stage..

It should be noted that both teams later signed their place in the quarterfinals..

A friendly was the last date

Many years had to pass, specifically 33, for what Spain y Japan faces were seen again on a playing field.

This event took place on 25 of April of 2001 in the Las Rozas Soccer City, and his character was friendly. Again, The clash was very disputed, although on this occasion the Spanish were able to 'take the lead', although they had to be very patient.

The winning goal for 1-0 I write it down Ruben Baraja in the minute 89 of game, when everything pointed to a tie again being the final result.

In that Spanish team, legendary players from our recent football played, such as Raul Gonzalez, Mendieta, Manuel Pablo, Pep Guardiola, Ivan Helguera, Fortified, Canizares or own Deck of cards.

The closest contact was last summer in Tokyo

Although it is not a match between two absolute teams, These two teams did face each other very recently.. It was last summer in Tokyo Olympics, in a semi-final where Asensio, with his great goal in extra time, daba a Spain the ticket to the final where he would fall with Brazil.
