Japanon vs. Croatia, round of 16 of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar: when is it, time, date, day, where is it, stadium, location and TV
The match will be played on Monday, December 5, 2022 at 4:00 PM in Spain, December 18 in Qatar and will take place on the Al Janoub Stadium in Al-Wakrah.
When it looked like Spain would take first place, the defeat to Japan sends Luis Enrique’s team into second place and the Japanese take the lead in the area. Thus, the Asians will be rivals of Croatia.
Japan will take on the second in Group F, which was Croatia after all. The current runners-up and Belgium started as qualifying favourites, but Morocco eventually caused the surprise and took first in the group, with the Croats second and the Belgians going home early.
The match cannot end in a draw and there can only be one winner because in case they equalize after the legal 90 minutes there will be an extension. If the match continues, it would break the tie with a batch of punishments.
