Japan's Ayase Ueda scored twice and set up another goal as they crushed Tunisia 4-0 in a World Cup match. Daichi Kamada and Junya Ito also scored for Japan, who became the first Asian team to score four goals in a World Cup match.

Japan's victory, their second in Group F, leaves them level on points with the Netherlands, who are ahead on goal difference. Tunisia's defeat brought a swift end to their campaign, despite the arrival of veteran coach Herve Renard.

Japan's coach Hajime Moriyasu praised his team's performance, saying they had prepared well and played aggressively. He also highlighted the importance of his squad's flexibility, with players able to adapt to different positions.
