Scotland 0-0 JapanJapan have been in control without putting Scotland under any pressure before that Tanaka chance, but now Sano skies over on the half-volley at the back post after misjudging the cross from the right. Chris Wilson28 March 2026 17:43Scotland 0-0 JapanOFF THE BAR! A real chance for Japan now as Conway nips in to clear and it falls to Tanaka, who opens his body up to try and divert the first time effort past Gunn, but ends up clipping the top of the bar!Chris Wilson28 March 2026 17:40Scotland 0-0 JapanOh, was that the opening for Japan?! It breaks kindly for Fujita and he looks to thread the final pass wide to Suzuki but it’s intercepted at the last by Robertson.Chris Wilson28 March 2026 17:37Scotland 0-0 JapanAlmost a chance for Japan as a corner causes some pinball in the box, but Scotland have enough bodies in there to make the block. Chris Wilson28 March 2026 17:35Scotland 0-0 JapanFinally a bit of an opening for Japan but it ends with a shot straight at Angus Gunn. Chris Wilson28 March 2026 17:32Scotland 0-0 JapanIt’s really not clicked for either side in attack, apart from that early chance from McTominay. There hasn’t even been half a chance since that save from Suzuki.

They briefly threaten to get in behind as Patterson misjudges his tackle, but the ball bounces off the back foot of Maeda. At the other end, Lyndon Dykes is looking a little isolated for the hosts.Chris Wilson28 March 2026 17:27Scotland 0-0 JapanA real friendly feel to this game at the moment, it must be said. Not a lot of tempo as both sides have just settled and aren’t looking to commit too many men forward.Chris Wilson28 March 2026 17:24Scotland 0-0 JapanJapan are also beginning to settle in possession now, though it’s not clicking in attack as Seko’s cross flies over all his teammates.

Patterson’s loose pass is collected in midfield but the pass towards Ito had to much on it.Chris Wilson28 March 2026 17:18
