      I actually am so happy Japan is doing well. They are the next host nation and by the way they are playing they will definitely make it out of the group phases

    Seeing JP score was cool, seeing Habana score was even better but seeing Heyneke using his hands as a calculator was incredible.

            Actually to be fair he wasn’t bad on Saturday. Pienar should be used as a sub rather than in the starting 15
