Colombia’s Rafael Santos Borre scores a goal during a friendly football match between Japan and Colombia in Osaka on March 28, 2023. AFPPIX: Japan coach Hajime Moriyasu said he wanted to “build a team that can control games” after his side threw away an early lead to lose 2-1 to Colombia in a friendly on Tuesday.
Japan drew 1-1 with Uruguay in Tokyo last week and Moriyasu said he was frustrated not to claim a win in his team's first home games since reaching the World Cup last 16 in Qatar in December. Mitoma has been in scintillating form since joining Brighton last summer and he gave Japan the perfect start when he rose to thump Hidemasa Morita's cross past Colombia goalkeeper Camilo Vargas.
Colombia saw little of the ball in the first half but they equalised in the 33rd minute when Deiver Machado raided down the left before cutting the ball back for Duran to sweep home.
