How they got here
Brazil won Group C (2W-1D-0L, 7 pts, +6 GD). Japan finished runners-up in Group F (1W-2D-0L, 5 pts, +4 GD). Both came through the 48-team group stage to reach the first knockout round, where the bracket becomes single-elimination: win and you stay in, lose and you are out.
This tie is one of 16 in the Round of 32. The Brazil–Japan winner moves into the Round of 16 (July 4-7, 2026); the loser is eliminated. There are no replays — if the score is level after 90 minutes the match goes to extra time and, if needed, a penalty shootout.
What is at stake
A place in the last 16 of the World Cup. For Brazil, finishing top of Group C earned a knockout berth; for Japan, qualifying from Group F did the same. Kickoff is 15:00 ET on Jun 29 at NRG Stadium, Houston TX. Live scores post on the schedule once the tie is played.
