Japan, Iraq advance to FIFA U-17 World Cup last-16 stage

Kolkata: After making wholesale changes, Japan were made to pay by plucky New Caledonia, although the 1-1 draw was enough to qualify them for the Round of 16 at the FIFA U-17 World Cup India 2017 on Saturday.

Keito Nakamura scored his fourth goal of the competition early in the first half, and Jekob Jeno equalised dramatically in the 83rd minute for New Caledonia.
