World Cup Group F: Japan thrash Tunisia 4-0, sealing elimination and pushing toward Round of 32

In World Cup Group F, Japan beat Tunisia 4-0 on June 21, 2026, one of the tournament’s biggest-ever margins. Daichi Kamada (4’), Ayase Ueda (31’), Junya Ito (69’), and Ueda again (83’) sealed the win. Japan’s victory eliminates Tunisia from the World Cup. Tunisia also entered the match after a coaching change: Sabri Lamouchi was sacked and Hervé Renard took over for his debut, but the team could not recover. For Japan, this World Cup Group F result strengthens their path to the Round of 32 under the expanded 48-team format. With knockout-stage structure adjusted to a “Round of 32” (instead of the traditional Round of 16), Japan’s 4-point position gives them more control over squad management in the final group match.
