GROUP H - Poland, Senegal, Colombia, Japan

[Jamiednm]

Lovely goal for the Japanese Sushi Balls

Would anyone have Nagatomo, the Japanese left-back at Everton? I also like Shibasaki, the Japanese number 7, holding midfielder.

If it means we get a Wagamama at Goodison as part of the deal, I'm all for it.

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Columbia throwing the kitchen sink at Japan now.

 

[LinekersLegs]

Excellent tactics by Japan, even if not great to watch

 

[Huyton Layne]

Big fan of throw takers walking about 12 yds up the field then proceeding to throw is perfectly to the opposition.

 

[Aqui1a]

Keisuke Honda, eh...

Keisuke Honda, eh...

Got a hell of an engine on him.

Stupid Handball cost Colombia there.. stupid decision by Sanchez

 

[Big Fat Sam]

What a result for Japan. Fabulous performance.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Putting money on no one from this group winning the cup

 

[Zezti]

Tbh if he doesn't handball it, it was going to go in anyway

 

[TheBigIguana]

Yes but the much more talented Columbia team can probably fight back from 1 down with 11 men and 87 minutes

 

[ToffeeTim]

Yes and there was 87 minutes left on the clock to turn around the game with 11 men. It was idiotic defending.

Man on the post ffs.

Exactly. I've rattled on about that during the Prem season, and been called old-fashioned. Fact is, you leave your posts uncovered from corners, and you'll concede if the attacker wins the header and gets it on target away from the keeper. But these smart-ass modern Managers can't see that, for some reason...
