I eat my words for the time being. Japan are looking a hell of a lot better than Denmark. Both free kicks were excellent. That second one was flawless. The ball didn't even bounce in the net. Just dropped straight into the corner.
If Japan keep going like this I can see them getting a couple more goals.

Matsui has been very attractive in all their matches.
have a wee hunch tomorrow's lusophone clash might be a bit more special than the lusophone clash in '06...

Everything everybody said about Japan is totally right, they are all technically very solid by the looks of things. A hard team to beat. That Honda is a beaaast.
This tournament is shaping up to be very interesting with lots of quality (and evenly matched by my judgement) sides playing good attacking, positive football. Difficult to see any one team that looks a sure favourite, it's really anyones game...

Everything except one thing: the first goal was a complete and total fuck-up by the keeper that was actually a waste of a good position if Sorenson hadn't had his Robert Green moment.

rip this joint please
peter lorre this time?
that goal he scored last night against the Ghanaians was a bit special!
Mesut Özil, footballer
Peter Lorre, actor
and in fairness the first chap (or is it the second
) plays for a team that have been better than England, consistently, down the years...

Darned cockwombles.
Biggest day of the World Cup so far? If Spain join Italy and France on the plane home, with England or Germany to follow Sunday, this could be Europe's worst world cup...ever?
