Japan vs Spain
The two teams previously faced each other once in 2001, a friendly game which Spain won 1–0.
In this match, Japan midfielder Ao Tanaka scored a controversial second goal after the ball appeared to go out of play. VAR took several minutes to confirm that a sliver of the ball stayed in the field, making it a valid goal.[20][21][22] The decision proved critical in (i) Japan's surprise topping of Group E and (ii) eliminating Germany from the tournament, with Die Mannschaft finishing third despite securing a two-goal victory over Costa Rica in the group's other game.[23][24]
