FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup: Japan to face Nigeria or Brazil in final

Japan has secured its place within the closing of the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup in Morocco following a dramatic penalty shootout victory over North Korea on Wednesday.

The semi-final encounter resulted in a 1-1 draw after common time, with Japan sealing an equalizer deep into damage time earlier than prevailing within the subsequent shootout.

Japan will now await the winner of the second semi-final fixture between Nigeria and Brazil, which is ready to happen on Wednesday night time. The victor of that conflict will meet Japan within the match closing on Saturday night, whereas the shedding aspect will face North Korea within the third-place playoff.
