The formation used in the second half is the one that Moriyasu was best known for when he won three championships with Sanfrecce Hiroshima during his time in the j-League.
But he has not done it since becoming national coach.
Some criticized why Moriyasu did not play football like Hiroshima.
Hundjflik said he had watched 60 games of Japan's national team, But Moriyasu never used tactics like the second half against Germany.
I think Hundjflik was surprised.
Moriyasu kept his tactics under wraps for four years.
Mr. Moriyasu playing the very long game I see. Prepared the trump card under everybody's radar and beat two world champions with it!
Mitoma came on in the second half. He is a 1v1 demon. I don’t think any fullback in the world would want to face him. Can go any way. Excellent close control. Also has himself a bit of pausa, which coupled with his elite positional sense and ability to assess the game, makes him very underrated. He just needs to be more decisive in his end product and there’s no reason why he could not play for a top 4 side in the prem. Brighton’s scouting, once again- chapeau.
You didn't mention the turning point of japan tactical.. Japan had lack of aggresivity when they played veterans (nagatomo and sakai) as a wing back, so moriyasu changed his wing backs (nagatomo - sakai) with more attacking player (mitoma -ito).. .He then played kamada dan endo as double pivot on attacking 3-4-3 formation. Literally they played 5 attackers at the last 15 minutes of the game.. (Ito-doan-minamino-mitoma-asano)
Good observation. I think Gundogan's withdrawal also helped make it easier for Japan to override the German midfield.
key to that was Tomiyasu subbing in as well
@@nickraoyj Indeed, Germany midfield after Gundogan was subbed started falling apart.
Tomiyasu killing it at arsenal and Japan...... He played cb and was amazing
I am a massive Germany fan, but if you don’t covert your chances, you leave yourself vulnerable to be punished. Congratulations to Japan on an excellent win.
P.S. well done on a great analysis so quickly after the game!
I'm from Germany, but. "Go woke go broke!"
@@maximilianluther979 complete and utter bullshit. If you would have watched the video, you would maybe be able to understand why Germany lost. Clearly not because they were too "woke"
@@jonasfrohwitter8553 They should just not bother anyone with the woke bullshit, but concentrate on the sport. Because actually, the players themselves don't believe in the bullshit. They are just legionnaires being used.
iam german fan but I'm really happy that the Asian team has won over the top european team
@@maximilianluther979 yeah sure, they are all mindeless puppets with no free will. Jesus, do you really believe this bullshit that you are writing
The way moriyasu played ito and mitoma as wing back was risky but well executed
That valor of Japan paid off. They took the risk and got the return...
It was a risky move for sure but both Mitoma and Ito have played as a wingback before
Excellent analysis. I should point out that the halftime/second half changes in not only personnel but formation and tactics are not some improvised plan they drew up at halftime. Moriyasu has been carefully plotting a 16-man strategy for every single contest (which makes sense given how deep the Japan NT is these days). I think they were hoping that the hard press and tight formation would allow them to keep Germany scoreless for the first 45. If they had been still 0-0 at half time, you would have seen Kubo and Maeda off for Minamino and Shibasaki /Morita, and Japan would have gone to a three-DMF 4-5-1.
As it was, Japan had to make a more attacking change. But the changes are all part of Japan's strategy, which is to let the opponent develop a certain style and mindset, as well as (hopefully) use up their energy in the first half. Then Moriyasu makes his five changes, and you try to win the game in the second half.
By using pressing players up front like Maeda and Ito, they WERE successful in forceing the German midfield and defense to do a lot more work than they usually do in the opening half. That was the game plan. The problem was that they could not hold the ball up well enough in midfield, so Germany had almost constant possession [on this point I think Kubo is a huge liability. He just cant hold the ball under pressure. Id give Soma a chance against Costa Rica]. Ideally, the plan is to make it to half time either 0-0 or 1-1 (Maeda or Ito getting a breakaway). Then you bring on the likes of Mitoma, Minamino and Asano, who can run at the defenders, and take advantage of their tired legs, and you shift to a new formation and style of play. This is a basic part of Moriyasu's philosophy, so you can expect to see substitutes continue to play an important role.
Mitoma did a crazy match and was the one who opened everything
Germany went from playing with Lahm, Boateng, Hummels, etc. to Süle and Schlotterbeck 💩
Mentality is needed at times, that's what Japan showed asides the tactical tweaks.
Great analysis.
The japanese team was born to go man-to-man and that is what it did in the second half. They should try Bielsa as a coach at some stage!
Japan doesn't hire foreign manager. They are capable of figuring football tactics by themselves instead hiring managers from outside and most importantly no communication problems with players
Motivation is a key to Japan success in every major football tournament.
That’s why they always go with Japanese coach
They hired foreigners in the past but have carefully identified themselves and their style of play so there's no need at this point
@@Vinicantstopcrying Javier Aguirre a Mexican coach current Mallorca coach- was leading them in 2014
@@mrQueven13
Recently mate. I am not talking about the past. Japan didn't hire outsiders since 2016 if I am not wrong
Japans manager was the MVP
masterfully analysis. Love this interactive screen
ONCE Football is a great software,I used it in during the 2018 WC but switched to Kryon Hego’s Coach Paint. I’m glad to see how much ONCE improved and is still affordable.
I liked how Rudiger was trying to re-popularise that good old German goose step. When he was running along Asano.
It's true that Germany dominated the first half and there was a possibility that the game would be closed, but in the second half, we overwhelmed them after adding Tomiyasu.
so instead of just trying to play their way, Japan actually applied a versatile tactic that only works against Germany, similar to what Saudi Arabia did to Argentina with the offside traps, this time Japan put all the trust on Tomiyasu to cover the defensive line because of how narrow Germany attackers were, so that Japan can go forward with even more intensity.
Japan is much better team than Saudi. Japan attacked much better.
Japan Vs Germany is not all one-sided as Japan keeper had an exceptional keeper.
Pending on your opinion, Argentina fumbled humbled in the loss or very unlucky in the two marginal offside calls. BUT Last 35 min, Argentina failed in scoring is not prudent for Argentina forwards.
@@tbsg5834 Yes and No. Japan faced Saudi in Asian Cup tournament. Japan won 2-0.
True that Japan second goal was mostly due to Germany Keeper mistake. Saudi had two top quality shots in the game.
Japan could generate attack even while Germany was outplaying them for over 70 min. Saudi generate nothing at all and had zip in their play in the first 45 min.
I'd be pissed if I'm the goalkeeper who had to deal with offside strategy... All those stresses to catch the flying ball, yet it was actually didn't matter since it's an offside offence by the enemy team
@@tbsg5834 Japan Second goal was a much better than the two goals by saudi, sorry to say that, but Japan goal was actually quite more Difficult & Challenging to do, Japan's second goal was the best one in this world cup so far
@@tbsg5834 Japan's Second Goal was better than both the SA team goals, Very difficult angle to shot
Also Japan played a better match than Saudi, & they were against the 4 times world cup champions (Saudi in the other hand) Faced a 2 times champions & Argentina did not even take a world cup titles for decades, so your Speculations makes no Ass sense whatsoever
6:31 "as a result, Raum had a lot of room" -- LOL! in German, Raum means room or space.
one of ur best videos recently
In short: Germany played 5-lane in first half while Japan had 4 defenders so Raum is always free. Japan switched to 3/5 back in second half. But Japan having the players to hold their own against Germany in a man-to-man strategy is key. Tomiyasu held the back line together, Mitoma wrecks havoc in front. Of course the Bundesliga players are very familiar with their opposition as well.
Germany miss a striker since Klose retired.
Japan played with 11 strikers that's why , if you know waht i mean :v
@@byakugan641 more like Germany did when Neuer pushed up again lol
@@Rollerbear712 it’s an anime reference btw
@@little_error295 ah blue lock lol, makes sense now
nice video !
Thank you FMS for making this video, and that too so quickly! So based on this video and what I've watched, my observations are:
1. Gonda is the new Ochoa.
2. World Cup is the time when your tank doesn't matter but quality does. In the last quarter of the game Japan was more adventurous and their valor was rewarded.
3. I felt it was a tactical mistake to take off Gundogan and replace him with Goretzka. Gundogan is better at holding the midfield and dictating the tempo.
4. Maybe Japan intentionally played a laid back game upto 65 minutes, then they unleashed the young energetic attackers.
5. Germany, playing with wingers and wing backs, could deliver quality crosses, but lacked a proper striker to attack it. They miss Klose.
6. An xG higher than the score can mean one of the 2 things - either your team lacks clinical finishers, or the opponent GK is exceptional. I observed both.
7. Gosens and Hoffmann deserve to start the next games.
Gosens is not even nominated. I think Germany needs to change the back four to Raum, Ginter, Rüdiger, Kehrer and replace Havertz with Füllkrug. Having a proper striker is so important, you can see at Bayern that having one unleashes players like Musiala and Gnabry, because they then get the free space which a proper striker creates through his physicality. If you look at the last chance of Germany of Goretzka, you can see how Füllkrug created the space and the opportunity for Goretzka.
1st half Japan played out of character and try to be defensive when they are not a defensive team. They were lucky 1st half not to concede 3 goals from Germany being un clinical. 2nd half Japan came out played how they always play and worked for them. Japan can beat any nation on the planet especially when you don't put your chances away. This is only an upset if you look through the lens of European elitism. Japan has beaten top European teams and South America before so its not hard to believe Japan won. They also held my Brasil to a 1 goal and were quite unlucky in front of the net. Japan has a strong league football culture in Jleague which a lot of their team is J League based. Also majority of J League is Japanese and Brasilians .As Brasilian managers and players have had an big positive effect on the development of the J League. Saudi on the other hand is an upset because Saudi isn't known to do well in any group stages of the cup history and their league isn't strong culturally. Japan should have no problem with costa rica. But when they play Spain they cannot afford to come out and play defensively or they will get passed off the field and lose.
Let's say Japan keeper had an average game, it would have been 0-3 at half time. And then Japan 0-5 down before Japan scored to make it 1-5 at 74 min.
@@agoodchow German xG was not 5 even tbh
@@nananou1687 Did xG account for Japan keeper extraordinary performance in the game ? Did xG predict Germany won the game rather easily ?
I trust own football savvy instead of xG.
Some of the Japanese players are also familiar with the German game and their players since they play or have played in Europe particularly in Germany. See their Wikipedia page and you'll see a number plays in Bundesliga.
Saudi does have the most succesful club in the asian champions league tho and they al ahli is the latest champions. Maybe football is shifting and the rest of the world is catching up to europe. Germany players minds might be preoccuppied with politics while japan is coming to play footbal and win.
Dortmund players dna affected the entire team
lmaoooo
Don't forget
Bayern DNA also in here
Anime DNA too
@@lordtea the reason Germany lost was because of the dortmund dna in the defense, sluttybeck and sule were to blame lol
@@thekn0wing don't just blame 1 side lol
Going 3 at the back saved Japan. Within 5 minutes of getting Tomiyasu on the field, they were able to string more than 3 passes together. From there, it was a case of fresh attackers being brought on to run Germany into the ground. Japan packed the penalty box with bodies, and one rebound goal was the final straw that broke German morale. I regularly root for Japan at World Cups, and I think Moriyasu's got enough maturity to one day try managing in Europe. It takes bravery to admit that plan A has failed. He did it.
Tomi is still not fully recoverd from injury, that's why the coach didn't make him a starter. BTW, Tomi is not in Japanese training session today due to the injury. Wish the best for him.
This video is great but we all know that japan's win was actually thanks to bluelock

Hi, I really enjoy your videos and have been following you for two years now. Proud of you for upgrading to the tactics board.
However, one thing I’d improve is the pitch geography in relation to your position animations explanations. I’ve noticed you explain everything with both teams spread on the whole board while the photo you show afterwards is for example in the final third or in one half of the pitch. In this case the team in possession’s CBs wouldn’t be in their own half, rather they would be past the centre spot.
Hope that makes, it’s just that pitch geography is always important in understanding pf the importance and relevance of the information given.
Comes from an UEFA B licenced coach.
Take care👍
@FootballMadeSimple
Will Germany be more direct or vertical when they play with a dedicated striker
I don't intend to over- criticize Manuell Neuer, but he made both of Japan's goals possible by his reactions ; the first by pushing the ball into the penalty area after his brilliant save, instead of knocking it wide, away from the danger zone (he actually did this twice, but was lucky the first time when Japan's second shot went wide), and by kneeling down instead of standing tall, thereby blocking the goal with his whole body when the second goal was scored. He also turned his left shoulder away from the Japanese player, instead of using it to block the shot. Obviously, both full backs were at fault pertaining to the second goal, but Neuer obviously thought that the second shot was going in low, not high as it did, into the net.
Lol for the second goal no goalkeeper on earth is standing in that situation what are you on about? Goals liked that can be conceded as it was hit right at the gap and into the top corner, these kind of goals happen all the time in the top leagues.
Nah man, if there was goalkeeping error i understand your statement and sure neuer could maybe have pushed the ball away from the penalty area but no way it was his fault. The second goal was just unstoppable, some shots just cant be stopped
@@kkb8510
Really? How come then that several football experts on TV in Germany and England said the same thing - that Neuer made himself less of an obstacle than he should have by kneeling down and turning away from the shot instead of doing the opposite, so it was not only my impression.
This is way better than watching Telemundo or FX
Well done!
Germany not being able to react on the new system from Japan is not a good thing.
Thats why I would not give Flick a 7.
But after all, when Germany scored two or three goals in the first half, everybody would say it´s the best team.
So they were not bad, but not able to react in proper ways
In the second half, the back line of Japan is Itakura, Yoshida, Tomiyasu (right to left). So the formation shown in this video is wrong.
I love evertyhing about Japan. Best country in the world. Ibanez guitars, ps5, nintendo, pokemon, katanas, lexus and kawai pianos. Amazing ❤ 🇯🇵
one of the best
i m german but respect Japan as the Germany of the Asia as they respect us as the Japan of Europe
Just like German, Japanese loves music and art. That's why they made good music instruments. Just be surprised to know Ibanez is made in Japan.
TBH, the second half Japan team is the normal performance level. There are too many key players who are just recovered from injury or still recovering that affect them not able to player the formation they are accustomed to. Endo had a concussion two weeks ago and not fully recovered. Morita is in injury. Tomi is not fully recovered. Mitoma has just be back from COVID a few days ago. The friendly game between Japan and USA, or Ghana vs Japan is actually what Japan team's right performance level. Hope they will be able to overcome Costa Rico and get 6 points.
And German wasn’t their normal level, way bellow. One of the worst games of Kimmich I’ve seen, Gnabry wasn’t good. Schlotterbeck should not be in the Mannschaft. Only Rüdiger and Raum were really good.
great vdo, what is the software you use to demonstrate? thank you
What model you mined you xG from, though? I looked Opta and it shows 3,8 vs. 2,06, without the pen would be 3,01 vs 2,06.
If you look at Opta's model, it significantly has different perspective, disregarding the penalty. The Japanese have 2 high chances (over 0,50) and 1 mid-high one (0,46), while Germany have only one high-chances (0,52 from Ruediger), but Germany have 3 medium chances (0,30) and loads of low chances (about 1,41 worth of low chances). Taking probability in, it would actually mean Japan vs Germany was almost a close match with 2-2 draw would be somewhat fair result.
I think your analysis is spot on in giving the picture that Germany have a dodgy backline at the moment. Spain is definitely going to take note on this and they probably will use long-ball more as a backup strategy when they press high. Ferran Torres could bite them again and it would be pretty funny if he does. 😅😅It could end catastrophic again for Germany...or Busquets could be the weak link and vice versa.
I would love a REALLY Simple breakdown. Like I don’t even know what a pivot is yet, so I was lost halfway. Just a suggestion! But please make a vid for some of us who don’t know squat 😅
Thank you for explaining in detail. In Japan, some people interpret this system change was originally planned. What do you think about this interpretation?
Moriyasu revealed that the formation for the second half was something he had planned.
Germany's Concentration was more on the FIFA gagging them....Japan took advantage of this and stunned them! The team came to play FOOTBALL, not to launch an Activism campaign. Play FOOTBALL Germany!!!!
True to some extent.
They played good football. But Japan was more adventurous...
Can you flip the sides for second half, please? I think that'd be greater. Thanks
Never underestimate opponents
6:32 Haha Raum had a lot of room.. nice pun :)
East Asian teams have always had agility and technique, they only lacked height, and this was corrected by drinking milk .
Tomi was on the left no central yesterday
Arogansi Rudiger terhadap pemain Jepang membuatnya layak mendapatkan pelajaran. jangan meremehkan tim lain hanya karna kalian merasa lebih hebat dari banyak aspek. salam dari Indonesia 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
Yeah man I saw that too. He basically mocked the Japanese forward for chasing down a lost cause. I'm not defending that behavior, that but it's just something players do to mess with opponents. Credit to the Japanese team for not taking that bait, continued fighting and not giving up. I bet the victory is that much sweeter when your opponents get arrogant.
@@norneaernourn8240 he did this to gain speed and close the door for the player so he wouldn't get to the ball
Rüdiger is actually a very humble and down to earth guy and didn't try to mock the player in any way
@@fw--kx6sk Well maybe he is as you said or not. I don't know him personally. But as a neutral observer watching that played out, it doesn't look good. That jiggy cartoony run doesn't "gain speed". Your feet are off the ground higher with shorter step distance, hence not only less traction to propel across the horizontal plane but also the traction is applied inefficiently. But hey believe what you like.
@@norneaernourn8240 i understand what you are saying, but the exact same argument was in the comment section of the german "sportschau" covering the match and a lot of them were pretty reasuring that this is the case
but it is still reasonable to think otherwise
Moriyasu's brave decision got returned. 3-6-1 (2nd half system) is the most favorite system Moriyasu used in J-league and CWC before the national coach. However, using this system amazed Japanese fans because he barely used this system after the national coach. The system change allowed the press more organized, and Endo could focus on the ball hunt. 6 attackers played so comfortably under this system. Tomiyasu's appearance was also important. I believe Flick did not expect this system change.
Flick need to go to Real Madrid academy and learn to defend like a team
I dont see 6 attackers
"Raum had alot of room" HAHAHAH bit funny since his name is literally room in german (6:33)
So this is that Captain Tsubasa episode?
Süle as a RB like Lindelöf as a RB in his club
Because Süle is very slow. He is a CB in the national team and Dortmund
How to improve tactic iq for wingers
6:31 very sneaky wordplay
MFK Moriyasu for Costa Rica Line up?
Japan used Germany weak point and strong point a weapon.
Weakness of Germany are Schlottingberg and Raum (as you can see from 1st half that disaster is about to happen from these two player)and Japan used this opportunity.
Germany strong point is Kimmich ball distribution but Japan literally keep Kimmich so quite that there were not much vertical or horizontal ball distributed by him.
Japan 2nd half was brilliant.
Anyone here after japan defeat spain
im so excited to see this vid
Raum had a lot of room… 😂
Japan counter is so good and nice finish. Meanwhile Germany has superior tactical but has 0 finisher in the team apart from shooting by Musiala and Gundogan. Also if u wanna beat Japan be like Belgium team last world cup. Abuse crossing since Japan player are short and its a treat to see Belgium comeback last world cup although lost to Brazil next round
Muller should Goalkeeper for Germany to win.
The main criticism I have with the way Germany played is that it was too slow. Yes, they controlled the game, but only with mostly meaningless possession far out from goal. There was not enough urgency and aggression to move the ball forward and take advantage of players skills and a numbers advantage when the ball was moved into new areas. Germany tried to push more players forward, leaving them vulnerable on the counter. I also believe subbing musiala was a mistake. Musiala was able to receive the ball and continue forward into dangerous positions. He kept the attack going, not just resetting it constantly. Plus his footwork and skill brought more dynamicism to the German attack.
12:10 the difference between the face's resolution xD
A world cup of major upsets this is, with plenty of games to be played. Who knows more might occur?
Japan does same tactic as Saudi Arabia.
Title of both videos:
Saudi vs Argentine: ”what went wrong with Argentine”
Japan vs Germany: "a tactical MasterClass"
Yeah I can tell the bias he can’t admit that our couch & team 🇸🇦 what they did was a tactical masterpiece as well
👍
Hope to see the Japanese and South Korean work ethic in action again for the rest of the WC.
Abeg you do spain
We will always remember Herr Flick: "You may now kiss me, Helga"!
Hey Japan and Saudi, we Asians are so proud of you 🎉🎉
I would disagree with giving Flick 7 points. His substitutions were very poor, his failure to react to Germany's clear defensive struggles are incomprehensible to me. I'd give him a 2
His substitutions only focused to rest the players, not to change tactics 🤮
Moriyasu Mastermind. ありがとう
Nah, it’s TOMIYASU influence 💀
Flick lost the game when he dropped Hummels (who could have complimented the offense playing the famous libero CB like Lothar Mathus) and should have given Scholtterback the offensive responsibility instead of Raum, because he has overall better stats on crosses and connecting with attackers either through direct mid-range crosses or far post front cross breaking the backline offside trap with Gnarby, also Musiala should have be the pivot in the front instead of Havertz, having better driblling and ball control in tight areas. Sule, covered the offside for Japan's 2nd goal a rookie mistake for someone playing at his level. With all that said, Japan came ready, prepared and executed and won.. congrats to Japan.
Flick was outsmarted, but not outclassed. He needs to pick better XI like HAVERTS was USELESS, he should’ve dropped into False9. Müller works best with a traditional striker.
Germany covers their 👄 but forgot to cover their goalie 🤣
What does Havertz do and where in the f is Sane
あかんぽいちが世界に見つかってしまう
So maybe Sule shouldn't start next game 🤔
Sule should be surrounded by pacey defenders, he's still good in the air and in ball progression, he's just slow.
I dont beleive in systems or formation in football. Its the individual plahers and how they blend. Intelligence is key, plus ability.
A Defender who is creative, can run amd undertand how to find openings- is a great talent. An attacker who was like Tevez, a gift. A midfielder like Figo or Zidane, Zola, Cantona, incredible.
Japan's coach looks like jet li

Moriyasu used to be heavily criticized because the Japanese people(mostly non professional) thought he was underperforming. A Japanese youtuber called Leoza criticizing him very heavily from a tactical standpoint wasn't helping at all. (Although Leoza isn't a first rate manager himself as he can't even win a 4TH DIVISION AMATEUR LEAGUE)
At this point in beating both Germany and Spain, Moriyasu might have been playing the "foolish manager" all along

Poland vs Mexico ???
I will bet my money on Japan 🇯🇵 to beat Spain . If they will play more better than what Dey did against Germany . Japan is a very good tactical team . They run 🏃♂️ a lot and their
Im surprised how japanese players always give their 100% in all aspects, look the way they run and block the opponents attacks, crazy Kamikaze players!
If you can see, Japan is not good to defend aerial attack ( they are not tall), so to avoid the cross, the jp wings don't give space.
im on Japan Spain or Japan Germany tht will qualify but my friend make funs of me...
👍🏾4️⃣0️⃣4️⃣🫶🏿
Now tell me an analysis about CR and Japan about their statistics... Why a weak team beats a huge team like Germany and then loses to another team that just got beaten 7 to 0 against Spain... Sure there is an interesting hypothesis about that right?
Well the coach made enter only ass players in the start up and players made too much waste
Because against Germany Japan parked the bus
Your whole narration didn’t take into account any substitutions made by Moriyasu
germany played there cards wrong. alot of chances were created but the players that were in those positions werent clinical. why is gnabry out on the wing as a traditional wingback? why is havertz at center forward and why wasnt sane played. Also why didnt they play sule centrally and let kimich play that role and then have havert in midfield beside ilkay. japan is good but if germany continue like this, they wont beat spain.
Japan cleaned up..., sob to speak.
German are becoming like 2018 world cup like Spain only postion they don't have clinical finisher
ズーレが穴。この一言に尽きる。
Hansi Flick has shown once again why he is not good enough to manage a top team. Don't think he has a clue on how to break compact low block defences. Germany were going central each time they had the ball instead of stretching Japan's defensive lines.
ong bro Japan got their players from Blue Lock xD
Funfact all 3 goals were scored in the exact same goal
There's something called betting...
Cái kết đau cho hậu vệ da đen khinh thường đội bóng khác.
Japan proved a fluke for the germany game. The manager followed the same tactics playing Costa Rica, even made rotation to rest players LOL. Back 3 simply doesnt work well for gungho tactics
