Thoroughly enjoyable performance, and if not for the Slovakia v Italy game earlier on, this would have been my favourite of the day.
A deserved win for Japan, who simply wanted it more than Denmark on the day. Denmark's only goal was a soft penalty that Agger was looking for way before any contact was made. Quality goals by the Japanese free-kick duo, and Honda is someone I am very interested in now. Excellent bit of skill for the Japanese third goal, and selfless beyond belief considering he had a chance to match the tournament top scorers had he gone it alone.
Excellent match.
