Koki Ogawa

Provides assist for Japan

Ogawa assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Netherlands.

Analysis: Ogawa had a big moment in Sunday's World Cup opener against the Netherlands, delivering a crucial set‑piece assist from a corner that found Daichi Kamada, securing Japan a point in the 2-2 draw. Coming on for the injured Takefusa Kubo, the striker made the most of his limited minutes, creating a chance and recording three touches in the box during his 15‑minute appearance. Depending on Kubo's injury status, Ogawa could be in line for his first World Cup start, making him a fantasy name to monitor after contributing an assist in his tournament debut.
