Japan vs Spain LIVE: Stream, TV channel, kick-off time and team news for World Cup 2022 Group E clash

JAPAN and Spain face off in the third and final World Cup group game – and winner takes the spoils.

The Spaniards were seven minutes away from pulling off a huge win over the Germans before Niclas Fullkrug’s equaliser.

But Luis Enrique’s side can still top the group with a win over a hard-fighting Japanese team.

However, a Japan win would not only see them finish as group winners, but could see Spain go OUT if Croatia beat Germany.

It’s all to play for in Group E.
