NASHVILLE, Tennessee - After scoring on his World Cup debut, Keito Nakamura is ready to carry Japan's attack again with his fellow attacker Takefusa Kubo ruled out Thursday of their second Group F game against Tunisia with an injury.

Nakamura, who spent this past season in the French second tier at Reims, announced himself to the world against the Netherlands on Sunday by emphatically burying Japan's leveler through the legs of Denzel Dumfries from the edge of the box.
