England win it 5-3.

22:04 (IST)17 OCT 2017

Soichiro Kozuki dispatches and it's 4-3.

22:04 (IST)17 OCT 2017

Kida with the first miss. Anderson with a good save diving to his left.

England up 3-2.

Straight down the middle.

22:01 (IST)17 OCT 2017

Hudson-Odoi with the second for ENGLAND!

And he held his nerves and slotted it past the keeper.

Sugawara with the first kick for Japan and he converts. Low and right to the keeper.

21:59 (IST)17 OCT 2017

And England are in front. Brewster sent the GK the wrong way and he put it low to the left of the keeper.

21:58 (IST)17 OCT 2017

Brewster is stepping up for the first kick.

21:58 (IST)17 OCT 2017

England win the toss and they have decided to take the first kick.

21:54 (IST)17 OCT 2017

That's the last action of the game and that means this World Cup will have it's first penalty shoot out.

21:53 (IST)17 OCT 2017

90+5' - Hudson-Odoi again on the left. Produces another cross but that one is overhit.

21:53 (IST)17 OCT 2017

90+4' - Kirby with a good hit from distance.

Swerved in the air and was on target but Tanu goes down well to his left and parries that before claiming it as his own.

21:52 (IST)17 OCT 2017

90+3' - Kirby with some good work in the middle but then his ball over the top for Brewster wasn't so impressive. 

Headed back to the keeper.

21:50 (IST)17 OCT 2017

90+2'  - Kozuki with another effort. But this time it is a tame one and Anderson can claim it with ease.

21:50 (IST)17 OCT 2017

90+1' - Great feet on the left from Suzuki. He gets one in - not sure if that was a shot or a cross but that stretched Anderson again who punches away.

21:49 (IST)17 OCT 2017

5 minutes added on after the regulation 90.

21:49 (IST)17 OCT 2017

90' - ENG clear again and look to break down the left again with Hudson-Odoi. But a great sliding tackle comes in to get that away.

21:48 (IST)17 OCT 2017

89' - JAP with the stronger end. 

Kubo with a fantastic run and he cuts through the ENG defence, cuts back on to his favourite left foot. Unleashes one on goal but that is deflected and another corner.

21:47 (IST)17 OCT 2017

88' - Great ball from the corner is flicked at the near post. But no Japanese played in at the back.

21:46 (IST)17 OCT 2017

88' - Japan come back again.

Kubo with a great ball in and Tsubaki in the middle turns it towards goal. But that is blocked and out for a corner.

21:45 (IST)17 OCT 2017

87' - JAP with a corner. 

Kubo with the delivery. But punched out.

21:45 (IST)17 OCT 2017

86' -  Hudson-Odoi again and his cross just a tad overhit. 

ENG, however, come back with Brewster. Foden nearly gets at the end of a great ball. But as has been the case. just a few inches away for ENG.

21:43 (IST)17 OCT 2017

85' - Corner this time by Kirby. Tani comes off his line and punches it out.

21:43 (IST)17 OCT 2017

84' - CLEARED!

Hudson-Odoi again played in with a ball over the top. Great feet from the Chelsea boy and he puts it across goal. Finally finds Kirby who takes a shot but cleared by the diving Kobayashi.

21:42 (IST)17 OCT 2017

83' - Ball over the top looking for Smith-Rowe. He gets the better of his man but his shot on the run is not on target.

21:41 (IST)17 OCT 2017

82' - Foden with a lovely ball for Hudson-Odoi to chase on the left. 

He does so. Cuts back and looks for Foden but there are too many Japanese there.

21:40 (IST)17 OCT 2017

81' - A late tackle from behind from Kobayashi on Foden. 

 He has to be more careful with that. He is already on a yellow.

21:39 (IST)17 OCT 2017

80' - JAP on the ball again as they move the ball around,

The Asian side looking strong in the final minutes. Tsubaki again on the run but this met by a firm challenge by Kirby. 

21:37 (IST)17 OCT 2017

79' - Neat play from Japan on the right but finally all that comes to not as Tsubaki pushed the ball too hard for Kida who was coming on the overlap.

Tsubaki again on the run but Panzo tackles to take that out.

21:36 (IST)17 OCT 2017

78' - ENG with another change. 

Kirby comes on for McEachran.

21:36 (IST)17 OCT 2017

77' - ENG play it at the back again. A long ball from Anderson finally looks for Brewster. He gets his head to it but that's all that he can do in that situation.

21:35 (IST)17 OCT 2017

76' - Miyashiro again. Gets some space to turn and shoot. 

But that is straight at the keeper. Curtis Anderson down and grabs it with ease.

21:34 (IST)17 OCT 2017

75' - Panzo with throw-in and that broke kindly and Miyashiro nearly gets some space. But ENG defenders close him down.

21:33 (IST)17 OCT 2017

74' - And with that, we go into a water break.

21:33 (IST)17 OCT 2017

73' - Subaki drives into the England box, and tries to get the right angle, but he is well attended to, by the England defence.

21:30 (IST)17 OCT 2017

 69' Kubo cuts in from the right, switches to his left foot and pulls the trigger from outside the box, but his shot is straight at the England keeper.

21:25 (IST)17 OCT 2017

England are trying to play intricate passes from the back, but Japan have them well marked, and are being able to negotiate the attacks.

21:22 (IST)17 OCT 2017

64'- ENG with their first change.


Arsenal's Emile Smith-Row replaces Manchester United's Angel Gomes.

21:21 (IST)17 OCT 2017

63' - Kubo's delivery is poor for the first one and ENG clear for a corner.

Kubo's second is no better. This time overhit.

21:21 (IST)17 OCT 2017

62' - Brilliant ball down the right over on by Naoki Tsubaki. 

And Japan have their first corner.


21:19 (IST)17 OCT 2017

61' - JAP on the other end. First signs of life going forward for Japan. 

Kubo with a good run but pulls his shot badly wide.

21:18 (IST)17 OCT 2017

60' - ENG on the break with four men forward. Foden looks for Gomes who gets to the ball but his cross is poor and blocked.

21:16 (IST)17 OCT 2017

58' - Hudson-Odoi again down the left. Puts a ball in again low into the box but Brewster can't get to that.

21:15 (IST)17 OCT 2017

57'- NEARLY!

Oakley-Booth with a great pass into Hudson-Odoi who crosses one in. Foden got into the end of a failed cleared. Nearly poked in but blocked.

21:14 (IST)17 OCT 2017

56' - Hudson-Odoi and then Oakley-Booth and then to the right for Sessegnon but the English have to come back.

21:13 (IST)17 OCT 2017

55' - Hudson-Odoi again and then Gomes. But they can't find a way through. Japan wasteful om the ball.

21:12 (IST)17 OCT 2017

54' - ENG must have strung together 30-40 passes before McEachran takes a shot on goal. Not a convincing one and that goes out tamely for a goal-kick.
