~ All for 2010!! ~ < Go to South Africa >

The representative of soccer Japan got the participation right of the World cup.
Okada's Japan won against Uzbekistan on the Asia's final preliminary in Tashkent. Japan took a 1-0 lead the first half by Shinji Okazaki. He is one of the best FW player in Japan. Also he has a Samurai spirit. I think he will be a top class player in the world.
I was moved by his goal. He did the diving head that pass of Kengo Nakamura. It was very cool!!
Then the second half, Japan was counterattacked by Uzbekistan. Tashkent was enemy land for Japan. Almost audience was Uzbek. So, referee favored Uzbekistan over Japan. Japan was fighting very hard then. But the accident was happend at just before time up. Makoto Hasebe was fouled because referee judged that he hit with Uzbek player. Also Okada manager was fouled too because he protested this thing. However I don't think so!! It must be a incident. Of course, judgment didn't reversed. It came time that time up. Japan won against Uzbekistan. Japan obtained the participation right of the World cup.
