Japan v Cameroon
Japan v Cameroon World Cup 14/6/2010
| Japan | Cameroon |
|---|---|
| Keisuke Honda (39′) |
Honda’s close-range strike was one of the few highlights of an otherwise forgettable game at the Free State Stadium.
The CSKA Moscow forward’s goal handed a long-awaited victory to Japan coach Takeshi Okada, who had seen his side lose four and draw one of their warm-up matches, scoring only one goal in the process.
While Okada opted for a lone striker in Yoshito Okubo, his Cameroon counterpart Paul Le Guen decided on an adventurous 4-3-3 formation.
