From A-H, from the point of view, Spain and Germany in the same group, including the Asian giants Japan group, is really a disaster, Spain and Germany if the play normal, the first two qualifying should not be a problem, but suffering Japan, with the above teams to play, I am afraid that the fierceness is less auspicious.
Spain is currently ranked 7th in the world and Germany is currently ranked 12th. Previously, Japanese coach Hoichi Mori said that the goal of the Japanese team in this World Cup is to reach at least the top 8, and at present, this goal has encountered major difficulties.
However, after the draw, Japanese coach Mori Baoichi said that Japan's goal of reaching the quarterfinals of the World Cup has not changed. This draw is good, in line with the goal of the Japanese team to rush to the world and conquer the world's strongest team.
Win or lose, Japan will play against the best two teams in the world, and the championship favourites, which is indeed the best exercise for the players.
