Congatulations to Mito for winning the league and coming up to J1 for the first time. I will try to make that away day next year.
Also congrats to Nagasaki - I definitely would like to go there, too, but with current away allocation, that might be very difficult...

Hayakawa 7; Watanabe 7, Taniguchi 7, Suzuki 7; Doan 8, Sano 8 (MoM), Tanaka 6, Nakamura 7; Kubo 5, Minamino 7, Ueda 6.

FT Japan 2-0 Ghana. A cruisy Friday night for the Samurai Blue at Toyota Stadium, fine finishes from Minamino and Doan enough to sink a below par Ghana.

Sota Kitano and Keisuke Goto come on for their Japan debuts. Takefusa Kubo one of the players taken off, he was, once again, average at best. Gets the assist for Doan's goal, but simply because he ran himself into a dead end and passed the ball off.

Japan on the showboat with flicks in midfield from Minamino and Ueda to release Nakamura, but his curler lacks sufficient curl and he fires across the face of goal.

Ritsu Doan smashes in low at the keepers near post, and Japan go 2-0 ahead!

Oh no, I think Ao Tanaka has accidentally snapped the Ghana player's ankle.

28' Lovely from Japan, and Keito Nakamura crosses for Ritsu Doan, who's first-time shot is blocked.

Shimamura is really pushing the boat out.

Brilliant from Kaishu Sano, and Takumi Minamino tucks home a tidy finish! Japan 1-0 Ghana

Japan and Parma starting goalkeeper Zion Suzuki has successfully undergone surgery at Keio University's Institute for Integrated Sports Medicine after fracturing a finger and wrist bone last week. He'll go through the first phase of his rehab in Japan before returning to Italy.
