Japan was chasing after the first match against Canada, and in the 39th minute of the second half, ace Mana Iwabuchi scored a one-on-one tie.

Japan, which has replaced five members from the first match, is paying attention to whether it can win the tournament for the first time in soccer, which is good at connecting passes in detail.

England is a team formed by four football associations in England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Walsh for the Olympics. England, where leading players such as ace striker Ellen White gather, is a superior opponent with 6th place in the world ranking, and Japan, which is 10th place in the world, has not won since 2015.


Britain has taken the lead in Group E with a 2-0 shutout victory with two goals from White in the opening match against Chile on the 21st.
