Already qualified Japan beat Indonesia 6-0 in the final Group C game in the AFC qualifiers for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Daichi Kamada has scored twice as Japan has rounded off their successful World Cup qualifying campaign with a 6-0 thrashing of Patrick Kluivert’s Indonesia in Osaka.
Kamada, an FA Cup winner with Crystal Palace in England this season, struck twice in Tuesday’s first half as already qualified Japan finished their campaign as Group C winners, scoring 30 goals in their 10 matches.
Takefusa Kubo, Ryoya Morishita, Shuto Machino and substitute Mao Hosoya were also on target against Indonesia, who finished fourth in the group.
Kluivert’s side, who were backed by a large number of supporters who had travelled to Japan, advance to a further round with five other teams to decide two more Asian qualifiers for next year’s tournament in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
