The key for Japan is to stay on the attack. Once they go into a defensive shell they'll fall apart. They've never been good at defense, whether against small, quick tactical strikes or long-range bombs.

1-0 at the half.

Japan does not do well when leading at the Midway point.

Three yellows in relatively short order here in the 2nd half.
