England vs Japan: Early Action at Wembley

Japan created the first meaningful opportunity in the 3rd minute, with Ben White being easily beaten on England's right flank. The resulting cross went out of play, but it signaled Japan's intent early in the match.

Five minutes later, Ito found Mitoma completely unmarked in the middle of the area, forcing England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford to rush out and cut off the forward's options as the match continued at Wembley.
