just got back.. thought to check up on the Blossoms..
USA penalty, holding on, and a Japanese player is down injured!
Japanners appear to be blossoming towards a victory seems. Good omen for my beloved WP’s short term future I’d think. Eddie will keep everyone guessing come game-time. Lekker stuff.

Ngwenya cannot get past the Japanese flyers, like he got away from Habana in 2007… hehehe
Japan penalty, ball slapped out of the Japan scrummie’s hand.. ruled offside
Japan make a sub in the front row, the loosehead prop is subbed
Japan penalty again… Fry the USA prop cops a Yellow Card to boot!
Japan has an easy kick at goal, but they want to go for the corner….
Shades of the Bokke game…
