A very soft goal to concede in such a huge encounter. Goalkeeper Tomoya Wakahara fails to hold on to Turki Al-Ammar's shot and the ball rolls into the goal from between his legs for an own-goal!#JPNvKSA #AFCU19 pic.twitter.com/qBMrIhoE07
Menit 33
Arab Saudi hampir memperbesar keunggulan. Sayang, sontekan Abdulmohsen Al-Qahtani melambung di atas mistar gawang Jepang.
33' What a miss!

Al-Ghashayan plays in a tempting grounded cross which beats every Japanese defender and the goalkeeper but Abdulmohsen Al-Qahtani's shot is way over the crossbar from mere three yards out!#JPNvKSA #AFCU19 pic.twitter.com/HUPjqHBehv
Menit 37
Peluang emas Al-Qahtani gagal membuahkan gol, karena tendangan volinya di depan gawang Jepang tidak terarah.
37' Another big miss from Al-Qahtani. He was unopposed in the box but lashed hard and the ball went into orbit! Remains Saudi Arabia 1-0 Japan.#JPNvKSA #AFCU19 pic.twitter.com/aHPO4YNrgD
