Coach Uzbekistan:'82166;We catch the Japanese.
"This victory belongs to the Uzbek fans," head coach Kapadze said at a press conference after the home team beat Japan 2-0. "We want to get to the finals and are happy to do that. We are well prepared and know the strengths of Japan. They are one of the strongest opponents, but everyone has weaknesses. We know. We have to play sublimation to beat them. We analyze the Japanese game so that they can't play as usual."
Uzbekistan did not really overwhelm Japan before two goals in the second half. The flexibility in the middle of the field helps the U21 Japanese players quickly control the match. In the last 30 minutes of the first half, the ball was mainly in the visitors. But they only once finished, because it was difficult to penetrate Uzbekistan's disciplinary defense defense. In contrast to the opponent's rectification style, the landlord finishes as soon as there is space. The result of Kapadze's teachers and coaches is Jalolididinov's long -range superficial product in the 60th minute, after the situation of losing the ball in the middle of the Japanese yard. By the end of the match, Norchaev scored a 2-0 victory from the mistake of the visitors' defense.
"We've entered the inadequate and then played under the ability", Coach Oiwa Go was disappointed in the Japanese show. "We fixed this in the second round, but we didn't build the actual results, we broke down and we failed.
Midfielder Anri Chase admits Uzbekistan's strength. He said: "The opponent is very strong. In the first half, we controlled the ball, but failed to break through their tight defense. My teammates and I made some mistakes, which cost Japan. The main difference is that Uzbekistan's defense did not make major mistakes. In the final, I think Uzbekistan is more likely to beat Saudi Arabia."
In the remaining semi-finals, Saudi Arabia did not let Australia surprised to win 2-0. Japan will meet Australia in the third place on 20:00 on June 18, while Uzbekistan and Saudi Arabia have won the championship a day later.
