Japan really struggling to break down that Dutchie defense.

If they go down the left side I’m pretty sure they could pass the Dutchie

Disappointed Suzuki is the goalkeeper as wanted to point out he had a good engine

Fucking hydration break in an air condition stadium. Yeah we all need the 3 minute pause

It's just a way of creating a 4 quarter game as per American football to squeeze in adverts. Watch this space for whether it carries on after the world cup.

Japan are parking the bike (not bus.....LOL!) to ensure they get a clean sheet today.

I wish they’d stop peddling the lines he’s the best centre back ever

There's two more on the bench, if you're lucky. Look forward to the top gag later.

He'll be Cross with the one he conceded.

Sugawara on. Come on you Saint (although maybe soon to be no more as the official account hasn't mentioned him at all)!

[Stripey McStripe Shirt]

Sweepstake on the first news outlet to report that Japanese fans cleared up after themselves after the game?

[Bakovnetski]

Sugawara on and has a shot

[Turkish]

This referee view is a load of shit 

[sockeye]

NIPPPONNNN BANZAIIIIIIII

[Patrick Bateman]

Played really well, made a difference since coming on. Should be able to get a decent fee for him if he continues to impress.

Werder Breman have a €6 million option on him reportedly.

Not a bad amount for both parties tbh.

Can we reduce it to 4m If they take Baz?

Noticed this quite a bit this WC especially in the Germany game earlier. Much as I quite like the addition of "Ref Cam", I wonder if them getting in the way has something to do with the new cyborg-esque camera attached to their heads.

A sneaky win from Ivory Coast. They and Norway are my dark horses to do well in the tournament this year. 

 

Thriller coming up at 3am - Sweden vs Tunisia. Surely Isak and Gyokeres will be too much for Tunisia... stay tuned peeps. I'll be watching.
