How to Watch Scotland vs. Japan Live Stream Online

It’s time to see what Japan has in store for an encore.

The Brave Blossoms started their 2015 Rugby World Cup campaign with the biggest upset in rugby history when they defeated South Africa in an absolute thriller. Suddenly, the country that no one took seriously, the country that entered this tournament with only one previous World Cup win (1991 against Zimbabwe), and the country that pundits said was “on holiday” in England, is at the top of Pool B.

After such a performance, Japan coach Eddie Jones is intent on avoiding a letdown against Scotland:

We see the start of the Scotland game as being super-important. If you look at Scotland’s record over the last 15 games, unless they get the lead early they struggle to win a game of rugby.

I always think if you play well in a game, the first part of the next game is difficult. We have to make sure we work hard in the first part of the game against Scotland and score some points early.

Scotland, which is playing its first match of the tournament, is 7-1 in its history against Japan, most recently winning 42-17 in November of 2013. But as we saw last week, anything can happen.
