Japan - Greece [0-0]: A disappointing match For their second matches, Greece had lost against the Colombia on 14 [0-3] https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-11378-haiti-sports-news-of-the-world-cup-2014.html faced in Natal in the Arena das Dunas japan, losing [1-2] against the Ivory Coast https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-11378-haiti-sports-news-of-the-world-cup-2014.html A draw [0-0] disappointing that do not arrange neither team except for having allowed with this score the qualification of the Colombia in 8th finals (which joins the two countries already qualified: Chile and the Netherlands). Japan dominated the match but without being able to create many genuine opportunities. Greece, overwhelmed, finally played in shorthanded (10) after the expulsion of their captain Kostas Katsouranis (2 yellow cards 27 'and 38', two indisputable mistakes). In the first period, the Greeks are struggling to keep the ball (75% of possession in favor of Japan), in the first 15 minutes the Greek formation has made only 17 passes against 132 for japan! In the second period, the Japanese attacked in every sense but abut on ten interdependent and very courageous Greek players unaffected by their numerical inferiority. Japan retains the advantage of the ball (73%) in a completely disjointed match, forcing many interventions of the referee, what breaks the rhythm of the game and does not help a show already unexciting. Japanese dominate and camped in the middle of enemy territory but do not always manage to create real chances. Schedule of matches for Friday, June 20 (Haiti local time) Italy - Costa Rica 12:00 pm (noon) Switzerland - France 15:00 (3:00 p.m.) Honduras - Ecuador 6:00 p.m. (6:00 p.m.) The Match to follow : Switzerland France BF/ HaitiLibre
