Japan's Zion Suzuki makes fingertip save, keeping score level vs Brazil | 2026 FIFA World Cup™

JUNE 29 • FOX SPORTS

Beaten twice in second half Suzuki had four saves and allowed two goals in Monday's 2-1 defeat against Brazil.

Impact Suzuki delivered an absolute clinic between the posts at times, but the goalkeeper was beaten twice in the second half by Casemiro (thigh) and Gabriel Martinelli. Suzuki's WC campaign with Japan comes to an end after conceding five goals in four appearances. He made 12 saves and kept a clean sheet against Tunisia.

JUNE 29 • ROTOWIRE

Allows one against Sweden Suzuki made four saves and allowed one goal in Thursday's 1-1 draw versus Sweden.

Impact Suzuki would have an excellent night in net as he made a few major saves while earning four, although it wasn't enough for a clean sheet with one goal allowed. He remains at a top level for the team when challenged, despite the three goals allowed in three games, with eight saves being made. He will now prepare for the knockouts, where his opponent remains to be determined, playing either Norway or France.

JUNE 25 • ROTOWIRE

Clean sheet against Tunisia Suzuki recorded no saves and a clean sheet in Saturday's 4-0 win over Tunisia.

Impact Suzuki had nothing to do with Saturday's dominant win, as he was not tested with a single shot on net on his way to a clean sheet. This is after a much more challenging match against the Netherlands, forced to make four saves in that contest. He will now face Sweden in their group stage finale, likely be a tough task when facing Viktor Gyokeres and Alexander Isak.

JUNE 21 • ROTOWIRE

Four saves made, allows two in draw Suzuki made four saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Netherlands.

Impact Suzuki opened Japan's 2026 World Cup campaign on Sunday against heavy group favorites Netherlands, conceding two second-half goals but also producing four big saves to help secure a 2-2 draw. Both goals came from close-range efforts inside the box, with Japan's back line repeatedly left exposed by the Dutch attack. Even so, Suzuki's shot-stopping kept Japan in the match, and his overall form suggests he should be well-positioned for the remaining group matches. Japan's next match comes against Tunisia on June 21 in Mexico.

JUNE 14 • ROTOWIRE

Set to start with Japan Suzuki has been named in Japan's World Cup squad and is expected to start every fixture as coach Hajime Moriyasu's undisputed first choice in goal.

Impact Suzuki made 20 Serie A appearances for Parma this season, recording five clean sheets and 1,800 minutes across the campaign in what was another steady year for the keeper between the posts. His composure under pressure, ability to distribute with his feet and commanding presence in the box make him a natural fit for Japan's possession-based system, and manager Moriyasu will rely on him heavily throughout the competition. Suzuki heads into the World Cup as the undisputed number one for the Samurai Blue and a key pillar of Japan's defensive structure heading into what promises to be a demanding group stage.

JUNE 2 • ROTOWIRE

Six saves in 1-0 loss Suzuki registered six saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-0 loss against Como.

Impact Suzuki made six saves as Parma fell to a 1-0 defeat against Como. The Japanese keeper has kept give clean sheets in 20 games this season after a significant period out during the season. This was the third time this year that he has made six or more saves.

MAY 18 • ROTOWIRE

Saves four shots in loss to Roma Suzuki made four saves and allowed three goals in Sunday's 3-2 loss to Roma.

Impact Suzuki had some good reactions between the posts but was unable to stop a penalty kick and a pair of difficult strikes during another busy outing. Facing top attacking sides has been a challenge for the goalkeeper, who conceded three times to Roma and twice against Inter in his last two appearances. Therefore, he might continue to be heavily tested next weekend versus a Como side which has scored the second-most goals in the league.

MAY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Allows two in loss Suzuki registered three saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-0 loss to Inter Milan.

Impact Zion Suzuki fell short of a third straight clean sheet, conceding twice against the champions despite making three saves. He has now recorded at least three saves in each of his last four matches and will face another tough test against Roma on Sunday.

Impact Suzuki earned the clean sheet Saturday, making three saves against Pisa. He's let in eight goals in the last six matches, recording 17 saves with two clean sheets in that span.

APRIL 26 • ROTOWIRE

Three saves in win Suzuki recorded three saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 1-0 victory versus Udinese.

Impact Suzuki repelled each of the three Udinese shots on goal Saturday and made two clearances to record a clean sheet in a narrow 1-0 road win over Udinese. Since returning from an extended injury absence, Parma's No. 1 has produced 14 saves and six clearances across five starting appearances. Suzuki's next challenge is likely to come Saturday when Parma hosts Pisa.

APRIL 20 • ROTOWIRE

Four saves in draw Suzuki made four saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Napoli.

Impact Suzuki faced more work than in any of his three previous appearances since returning to the side, turning away four attempts. Nonetheless, he was beaten once, extending his goals-conceded tally to eight across this four-game stretch, in which his save count now stands at 11. Next up is a trip to Udinese on Saturday.

APRIL 12 • Associated Press

Allows one goal versus Lazio Suzuki had two saves and conceded one goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Lazio.

Impact Suzuki had an okay showing but couldn't catch a nice finish by Tijjani Noslin that was deflected by a defender. He appears to have recaptured the starting job for good following a hand injury and has given up seven goals and made seven saves in the last three matches. Up next, Parma will host Napoli next Sunday.

APRIL 4 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes two in defeat Suzuki made two saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-0 defeat to Cremonese.

Impact Suzuki came up with a big stop before the break by smothering Federico Bonazzoli's glancing header, one of his two saves on the afternoon, but Cremonese cracked the game open after halftime. He was beaten first by Youssef Maleh's rocket from distance in the 54th minute and then again by Jari Vandeputte 14 minutes later. Parma gave him almost no room for error in front of goal as the match got away from them in the second half. Suzuki will try to bounce back after the international break when Parma take on Lazio on April. 4.

MARCH 22 • ROTOWIRE

Struggles in return against Torino Suzuki recorded three saves and one clearance and allowed four goals in Friday's 4-1 defeat against Torino.

Impact Suzuki resumed starting two weeks after recovering from a serious hand injury but had a poor showing, failing to block a shot that went through his legs and conceding three further goals, and he could have done a little more on the final one. It remains to be seen whether the coach will stick with him or go back to Filippo Corvi. He was the clear starter before getting hurt. He hasn't blanked the opponents in four outings, making 13 saves and surrendering 11 goals. Up next, Parma will host Cremonese next Saturday.

MARCH 14 • ROTOWIRE

Unused in Cagliari tilt Suzuki (hand) didn't play in Friday's 1-1 draw against Cagliari.

Impact Suzuki recovered from a hand fracture that sidelined him for an extended period of time, but Fillippo Corvi got the nod again, and the coach was non-committal about the pecking order. It's likely that Suzuki will return between the sticks at some point to get ready for the World Cup, but his young replacement might keep starting a while longer.

MARCH 1 • ROTOWIRE

Returning in Cagliari game Suzuki (hand) "has completed his rehab, and we'll decide match by match between him and Filippo Corvi," coach Carlos Cuesta announced.

Impact Suzuki will be available for the first time since late November after severely injuring his hand, but his substitute has been steady in relief, so he might have to wait before recapturing the starting job. He kept three clean sheets, allowed 14 goals and made 36 saves in 11 appearances before going down.

FEBRUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Undergoes surgery Suzuki went under the knife in Japan to stabilize his fracture, Parma announced.

Impact Suzuki is expected to miss three to four months to make a full recovery. Parma will soon decide whether to bring in an experienced free agent or to trust their youngsters until the January window opens.

NOVEMBER 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Suffers hand fracture Suzuki has been diagnosed with a compound fracture of the third finger and the scaphoid bone of his left hand following Saturday's 2-2 draw with Milan, during which he allowed two...

Impact Suzuki didn't have a standout performance, as Alexis Saelemaekers beat him from distance with a routine shot, and he risked a pair of blunders only to recover at the last minute. He will weigh his options, as he might need surgery to facilitate a full recovery. Regardless of the choice, he's set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines. Parma might dip into the free agent pool as they only have two inexperienced options, Edoardo Corvi and Filippo Rinaldi, behind Suzuki.

NOVEMBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Allows three in loss Suzuki made three saves and conceded three goals during Sunday's 3-1 loss against Bologna.

Impact Suzuki wasn't at fault for any of the three goals he allowed and made some big stops but this is simply not enough for his fantasy output to be considered a positive one. This campaign has been a rollercoaster for the goalkeeper, who followed up back-to-back clean sheets with getting beaten five times over his last two starts.

NOVEMBER 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes twice against Roma Suzuki recorded four saves and gave up two goals in Wednesday's 2-1 loss versus Roma.

Impact Suzuki was under fire throughout the game and couldn't do much on two close-range attempts by Mario Hermoso and Artem Dovbyk. He has kept two clean sheets in the last five matches, making 18 saves and allowing four goals. Parma will host Bologna on Sunday.
