Japan’s match against Canada at the Al Maktoum Stadium (Dubayy) on Thursday, November 17, 2022, can be watched via live streaming on online tv. The two teams have the ambition to measure each other’s strengths before competing officially in the World Cup which will start on November 20.
The Japanese national team is currently 24th in the FIFA ranking list. At the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, they are in Group E with Spain, Germany and Costa Rica.
At the 2018 World Cup, Japan also qualified. Even though they ended up losing to Belgium in the 16th finals, the Samurai Blue team has amazed the whole world with their performance.
At the Qatar World Cup, Japan was in a very strong group. Spain and Germany are the two European giants who have held several World Cups. At the same time, Costa Rica is not to be underestimated.
It is still very difficult for the Japanese team to move freely in this group. But overall the strength of Hajime Moriyasu’s team was not weak. Japan could have made a surprise in this group.
On the one hand, the Canadian national team is currently ranked 41st in FIFA. At the Qatar World Cup, Canada was in Group F with Belgium, Croatia and Morocco.
Comparing strength-wise, Canada is still weak compared to the other teams in the group. Moreover, all the players and head coaches are also participating in a competition such as the World Cup for the first time, they are relatively inexperienced.
But there is also a player who is the number one star in the Canadian national team, namely Alphonso Davies. The 22-year-old player plays as a wing midfielder for Bayern Munich. However, most of the team ‘The Canucks Les Rouges’ come from low-level European and MLS league teams, which of course the overall strength is still weak.
