Re: (2011.09.06) FIFA World Cup Qualifier: Uzbekistan x Japan [R] how can you not remember that game? extremely difficult match under all those circumstances and Japan managed it! 11pm JST
Re: (2011.09.06) FIFA World Cup Qualifier: Uzbekistan x Japan [R] Hehe, I know, it's one of my earliest BS-memories. Red card for Hasebe, Okada sent to the stands, and probably the most typical Okazaki-goal ever.
Re: (2011.09.06) FIFA World Cup Qualifier: Uzbekistan x Japan [R] Let's enjoy qualifiers while we can. Probably last time in that form...
Re: (2011.09.06) FIFA World Cup Qualifier: Uzbekistan x Japan [R] Somebody up there please correct it. This is Japanese font.
Re: (2011.09.06) FIFA World Cup Qualifier: Uzbekistan x Japan [R] We can prepare for quite a tough match. Best of Luck to JAPAN! 11PM JST is 8AM Central US time. I can watch it first in the morning. all I need is a live link now. GO JAPAN! GAMBARE, NIPPON! GAMBARE SAMURAI BLUE!
Re: (2011.09.06) FIFA World Cup Qualifier: Uzbekistan x Japan [R] So lets talk about the game itself. So far journalists complained about heat in Tashent and bad pitch condition. While Maya (no longer Yoshida) seems like he don't have problems with it. So Yosuke once again playing behind lone striker (Lee or Havenaar)?
Re: (2011.09.06) FIFA World Cup Qualifier: Uzbekistan x Japan [R] Actually it's 9AM Central, 10AM Eastern.
Re: (2011.09.06) FIFA World Cup Qualifier: Uzbekistan x Japan [R] I know many here are favoring Havenaar over Lee but I see him more as Zac's No.1 alternative when things don't go well. Lee, on the other hand, must feel Mike's breath in his neck and will run for his life. And I'd rather see Kiyo starting, and Yosuke coming in. I think he didn't handle the pressure very well last match.
Re: (2011.09.06) FIFA World Cup Qualifier: Uzbekistan x Japan [R] Sorry Shuvy, could you please correct the "6" in the date of this thread's title?
Re: (2011.09.06) FIFA World Cup Qualifier: Uzbekistan x Japan [R] Lee is without a doubt, a better option against a team that is willing to "play" against us. Not hunker down with 10 behind the ball like DPRK did. However against DPRK and probably other ultra-defensive lineups, then Havenaar is a very good alternative as a substitute. Opens up the option of "route 1" which is probably somewhat helpful against a weaker asian team that won't attack. However Lee is still no.1 atm. I REALLY hope that Uzbekistan try to play with Japan. This will happen if Japan gets an early goal. ======================== Uzbeks coach Abramov is confident. "I think the Japanese team is a simple team just like any other team" http://mdn.mainichi.jp/mdnnews/sports/news/20110906p2g00m0sp096000c.html
Re: (2011.09.06) FIFA World Cup Qualifier: Uzbekistan x Japan [R] Imo, this sounds like Abramov is trying to inject his team some confidence.
Re: (2011.09.06) FIFA World Cup Qualifier: Uzbekistan x Japan [R] His comment on Honda's hair was nice nevertheless. I think there are three teams in AFC which could be confident before the game against Japan and Uzbekistan is one of them. Especially playing at home.
Re: (2011.09.06) FIFA World Cup Qualifier: Uzbekistan x Japan [R] yes Kawashima, Yoshida, Konno, Uchida, Komano, Hasebe, Abe, Endo, Kagawa, Okazaki, Lee
