World Cup hosts top pool A after a bonus point victory against Samoa and are on the verge of a first ever World Cup quarterfinal.
The loss ended the Pacific islanders’ chances of their first place in the knockout phase since 1995, although the grouping is not likely to be decided until Japan play Scotland in Yokohama in the last game of the pool phase on Oct. 13. The home side came into the contest intent on a kicking game, but that at times meant giving up quality possession, something they changed in the second half with great effect.
Samoa lost experienced fullback Tim Nanai-Williams just before the break with a head injury, hampering them in both attack and defence.
They’ve got about 16 non-Japanese players in their squad...but ok 👌
