Japan beats Indonesia 4-0 to edge closer to World Cup spot

Stay healthy along the way to to the World Cup!

They need to find a way to make Asia qualifying more watchable, the gap between the top teams like Japan and Korea is considerable from Indonesia and co.

A league competition where one team is relegated into a competition with these less strong countries while Australia, Japan Korea and the other stronger nations play twice in their league like they do in South America could be an idea, with time for Japan to play some quality opposition and not cannon fodder..

I previously stated that 5-0 was a pass mark for Moriyasu-Japan, so they got pretty close! Will be interesting to see when Japan qualifies if the gaffer throws a few younger guys in for more experience.

Blue Samurais are doing fine in Jakarta. Well played Japan and Indonesia.

More like Japan beat "Netherlands" since 11 of Indonesian team players are of Dutch origins.

Japan will be such a scary opponent in the World Cup. I have never seen a team dominate their opponents in the same group as much as this. Time to get the record books out.
