Shinji play so good as in Dortmund. And Honda is a real striker. I think Japan will be the best Asian football team so far and they will also be a problem for teams here in Europe. Japan plays a really good looking soccer. My secret favorite next WM=) JAPAN

lol we hate them because first of all our grandparents were tortured by japanese, they killed the royal family of korea. we just hate them because they act like assholes, now they think that a island near korea is rightfully japans but it was korean lad for hundreds of years, and if you see most of the soccer games between korea and japan Korea usually won. and Korea was missing a lot of players korea did bad but japan doesnt beat koreans in everything.

Honda had a real celebration, he didn't just raise his head, thinking he's all cool, but he was simply excited to score for his country :)

Korea needs to play better but considering that fact that Park Ji Sung and Lee Chungyong Korea's two best wingers missing and probably the best left back ever in Korea, Lee Young Pyo retired. Ji dong won from Sunderland and Son Heung min from Hamburg missing and the Home advantage for Japan. Hopefully this match will make the Korea's squad stronger For Japan it was really nice to see their tactics and the player's movement Very clean and calculating anyway good game for two countries

its just so good to hear commentators sharing the excitement, joy and passion of football. Even though its classed as a "friendly" match, it is an eternal rivalry

Seems like rosario doesn't know what RIP stands for. Dude, it's not "rip" the verb, RIP stands for "Rest In Peace". lol

It wasn't the BEST Korean squad. They were missing the KEY players: Park Ji-Sung (Man Utd), Lee Chung-Yong (Bolton), Ji Dong-Won (Sunderland), Son Heung-Min (Hamburg HSV), Suk Hyun-Jun (Gronningen) etc. Captain/stiker Park Chu-Young has been club-less since May (hasn't played in a game since). Also, due to the on-going match-fixing scandal investigations some of the key players were left out (eg. Hong Jung-Ho, the regular centre back). It was more-or-less a second team. This team would probably lose to the likes of Bahrain, Jordan, and Qatar. On the other hand, Japan had almost a complete squad with full firepowers (except Nagatomo on the left back). PLUS, the game was held in Japan, in a baseball dome stadium in which Korean players had never played before. Having said all this, I don't mean to take anything away from the Japanese team. They were world-class. They were nothing like a typical Asian team, they reminded me of Spain or Argentina. I was glad to see Asian football making such an enourmous progress so quickly. And the two superstars, Kagawa and Honda, hands down in the league with the best players in the world. Their finishes, very impressed.
