Japan won their last two games in the tournament with the same score (1:0). In both cases, they scored their goal in the last 10 minutes. Japan have scored a maximum of 1 goal in regular time in 5 out of the last 6 games they’ve played in the Olympic tournaments. Japan haven’t conceded in regular time in 5 out of the last 7 games they’ve played in the Olympics.
Spain have scored over 2 goals only in 3 out of the last 12 games they’ve played in the Olympics. However, in this group stage they performed quite interestingly. Spain beat Uzbekistan (2:1) and the Dominican Republic (3:1). The Spanish side lost their last match versus Egypt (1:2) and finished second.
The sides are unlikely to score a lot of goals. Their players will not be tired as many of them missed the third round games in the group stage. These teams have played in the previous Olympic games tournament. Regular time was goalless in the Olympic semi-finals, with Spain winning 1:0 in extra time.
