Despite Saturday’s 1-0 extra time defeat in the final to Saudi Arabia’s Al Ahli Saudi FC, Tani’s contributions and performance did not go unnoticed in the Japan side’s debut continental outing.
The 25-year-old kept a remarkable seven clean sheets from the 11 matches that he has played this campaign, including five successive matches without conceding that included the Round of 16 matches until the semi-final.
In the final, Tani made a series of saves to deny the likes of Ivan Toney and Galeno but could do nothing to stop Feras Albrikan’s extra time strike.
