Hopefully 0-0 or 1-1, then a Japan win in Extra time or after penalties.

Japan are fucking everywhere.
I think Belgium will run out comfortable winners.

The commentary is shit. It’s like listening to my dementia suffering father-in-law trying to describe the 1960 Cup final

This is what's wrong with the game. Carrasco was fouled in the box just now, and he would have had a penalty if he had fallen to the ground. But he didn't. He stayed on his feet and didn't get the call.
And you wonder why players fall over rolling if grazed by an opposition player's arm hair.

Japan coming a lot more into it. Technically they're very decent. If only they had a few more 6-footers to mix it up a bit

Nearly embarrassing end to the half for Courtois there.

The big loser in the first half was ... Martin Keown.

Japan happy.
Good team play.
Bojan would love playing in that team.

Let this be a warning to anyone who thinks there are any easy games in the knockout rounds, including on the "easy" side of the bracket.

What a refreshing change - two teams trying to play clever tactical, technical football - without cheating - diving, imaginary cards - rolling around as if shot - feigning injury - or trying to get fellow professionals sent off.
no sign of the 'dark arts '- we'll see plenty of that tomorrow
A game tonite (Belgium / versus Japan) played in a sporting style and, a refreshing change to the antics of the Mexicans and Brazilians this afternoon
both teams deserve much credit on that first half showing
lets see if it continues
or - 'win at all costs' kicks in
