    Honda said in an interview shown today on TV: "Top-4? I'd say let's go for the title!!"

    It is official, he has... Okaditis. :cool:

    Haha why shouldnt they be positive after those great games. I think this is starting to get damn embarrasing and stupid.

    Show some result, at least score a goal then you can talk.

    Jabulani is an awesome ball for me, guess not for SA and Mexico, but great game!

    He's no weapon, but he has been "secretly" playing in all of Japan's games...

    As much as the images were wonderful, the sound was unbearable. I hope it is only at S.Africa games, I find it very, but VERY annoying... :rolleyes:

    Yea there were Vuvuzelas at every single Confederations Cup last summer.

    I might be tone deaf, but I can barely hear the horns when I watch the games.

    Vuvuzelas....

    - If the team you like wins, no problem. Whatever...

    - If a tie, kinda annoying.

    - If the team you like lose, freaking annoying and you want to kill every single vuvuzela's blower :rolleyes:

    Its not all the home supporters blowing it, its also other fans.
    I do find it annoying. But when you concentrate on the game, you don't take notice of it. Unless your actually at the game.

    If only, if only, Japan can produce the same quality like what Korea displayed today in a few more days.

    Watching Korea's game, I just can't imagine how in hell Cameroon is going to get more than 46% possession against us. If Matsui man-marks Assou-Ekotto I don't really see Cameroon scoring unless its an OG :D, and they do have big gaps in their defensive organisation their gap between the defence and midfield is quite large when they're tracking back.

    Who said Matsui is playing?

    South Korea did great, but I honestly believe the level of Japanese players is not inferior. Surely, they have a better coach and overall a more positive environment, but if you compare the players one by one, I don't think japan loses... They just have way more "guts" and overall play a more mature game.

    In any case, South Korea doing well just put more pressure on Japan, and I believe in the long run it is a good thing.

    BTW, anybody wants to guess what does the two Korean goal-scorer have in common...? :rolleyes:
