Saved well from Ritsu Doan as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/football\/japan\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Japan<\/a> pressed. 6<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Ben White Struggled to contain Keito Nakamura and was booed again. His return may well be shortlived. 4<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Ezri Konsa Got the offside trap wrong but recovered to deny Ayase Ueda. Shaky distribution at times. 5<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Marc Gu\u00e9hi The best of a bad bunch in defence. Blocked a shot in the second half. 6<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Nico O\u2019Reilly Vulnerable to long diagonals? Doan\u2019s chance had shades of Fede Valverde\u2019s goal for Real Madrid. 5<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Elliot Anderson Hit the bar and offered physicality but he was isolated against Daichi Kamada and Kaishu Sano. 6<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Kobbie Mainoo Japan\u2019s goal exposed poor defensive instincts. At fault for further openings. World Cup hopes over? 4<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Morgan Rogers Tried to inject dynamism but drifted inside and it became too crowded. Underwhelming. 5<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Cole Palmer Started well but faded after losing possession before Mitoma\u2019s goal. A lot of ball losses. 4<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Phil Foden Failed to prove he is a suitable stand-in when Harry Kane is missing. 4<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Anthony Gordon Struggled with positioning in messy front four. Has not dislodged Marcus Rashford. 4<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Substitutes Jarrod Bowen 6 (Palmer 59), Lewis Hall 6 (O\u2019Reilly 59), Dominic Solanke 6 (Foden 59), Tino Livramento 5 (White 59), Marcus Rashford 6 (Gordan 71), James Garner 6 (Mainoo 71), Dan Burn 6 (Gu\u00e9hi 83), Harry Maguire 6 (Konsa 83).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jordan Pickford Had no chance with Kaoru Mitoma\u2019s goal.
