Decent in draw
Doan recorded two crosses (zero accurate) and one tackle in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Netherlands.
Analysis: Doan put in a decent shift for Japan on Saturday before being replaced by Yukinari Sugawara in the 75th minute against the Netherlands. He registered four defensive contributions, two of which were headed clearances, one tackle, and one duel won, while maintaining a 79 percent pass accuracy. His role with Japan is different from his usual position at Frankfurt, operating more as a wingback in the 3‑4‑2‑1 setup. As a result, expect more defensive involvement from him, while still keeping an eye on his ability to make explosive runs up the right side throughout the World Cup.
Busy in finale
Doan registered three shots (one on goal), six crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 2-2 draw against VfB Stuttgart.
Analysis: Doan wrapped up his first season in Frankfurt with a pair of chances created during a solid, if not glamorous showing. The winger was a threat throughout the match, but couldn't get on the scoresheet. He was good throughout the season, making 31 appearances (28 starts) on the way to five goals and five assists, though he wasn't as productive as his final season with Freiburg.
