:00:59. > :01:07.COMMENTARY: From the rainforest to the concrete jungle. Time to respond
:01:08. > :01:14.to threat of an early flight home. Rooney to strike. It's wide. Off the
:01:15. > :01:20.bar! Luis Suarez gives Uruguay the lead.
:01:21. > :01:34.In goes Cavani. Rooney. Johnson's cross. Rooney is there.
:01:35. > :01:42.Wayne Rooney's first-ever Johnson's cross. Rooney is there.
:01:43. > :01:46.Final goal. There is no flag here. Johnson's cross. Rooney is there.
:01:47. > :01:50.Final goal. There is no Luis Suarez. Luis Suarez has knocked it in, one
:01:51. > :01:58.of the simplest goals you will ever see. Uruguay win in Sao Paulo.
:01:59. > :02:03.GARY LINEKER: That is almost that but not quite. Back-to-back defeats
:02:04. > :02:11.mean England's fate is out of their hands. If Italy fail to beat Costa
:02:12. > :02:17.Rica tomorrow, England are out. If the Italians win their remaining two
:02:18. > :02:28.games, England could still qualify by beating Costa Rica. Let's get to
:02:29. > :02:31.the analysis. Alan, it is 1958 when England last failed to make it
:02:32. > :02:34.through the group stages. It is the first time they have lost their
:02:35. > :02:43.opening two matches at a World Cup. It makes painful reading? It does.
:02:44. > :02:48.So long as we continue to defend, as we did tonight, and in the first
:02:49. > :02:55.game, we will struggle to progress. I didn't see many positives in that
:02:56. > :02:58.performance tonight. Rooney's goal, his first World Cup goal. There
:02:59. > :03:06.wasn't any big performances from any of our big players. We saw slight
:03:07. > :03:11.improvement in the first game. Sterling didn't turn this evening.
:03:12. > :03:14.Sturridge struggled at times. But the huge concern was the way we
:03:15. > :03:19.defended for the goals conceded again. Massive concern. Rio, as a
:03:20. > :03:25.defender yourself, played at this level, World Cups, you can't afford
:03:26. > :03:29.to make schoolboy errors? I think the lads will be going back to the
:03:30. > :03:36.hotel tonight, they will be gutted with that. It is nightmarish.
:03:37. > :03:40.Especially a straight ball down the middle. It is schoolboyish and you
:03:41. > :03:43.have to make sure these things don't happen, especially at a World Cup.
:03:44. > :03:48.It is disappointing. We got ourselves back into the game. We
:03:49. > :03:52.were saying here, I would have took a point at that stage and gone to
:03:53. > :03:59.the last game... There speaks a defender. Exactly. It wasn't to be.
:04:00. > :04:06.We let ourselves down. Let's get a less emotional view, Clarence. What
:04:07. > :04:12.did you make of it? I feel the vibe and it is disappointing, of course.
:04:13. > :04:21.They came back properly in the game and a draw would have been again a
:04:22. > :04:25.good result. It is a pity. But Uruguay is really tough to play
:04:26. > :04:29.against. Once they scored a goal, they were sitting back and defending
:04:30. > :04:34.now. Hoping for the next results. Two goals from Suarez. Phenomenal
:04:35. > :04:43.performance given his injury. He is amazing? Remarkable. He's a top,
:04:44. > :04:46.top-class player. You give players of his calibre changes at this
:04:47. > :04:48.level, they will take them. That is the difference, that is why teams go
:04:49. > :04:55.on to be successful because they are the difference, that is why teams go
:04:56. > :05:01.top stars and they perform. You can pick the bones out of this. The
:05:02. > :05:07.defending here from Johnson. He has to stop the cross. And how Suarez
:05:08. > :05:12.gets away to stop the cross. And how Suarez
:05:13. > :05:15.Once Suarez has got the back of the defender's number, the defender is
:05:16. > :05:17.in trouble. That is what the forward is trying to do. He has to get
:05:18. > :05:21.tighter. He has is trying to do. He has to get
:05:22. > :05:25.Cahill has to push him down the line. He's opened the game up for
:05:26. > :05:29.Cahill has to push him down the him. Suarez runs off Jagielka.
:05:30. > :05:34.Jagielka doesn't look at him here. There is no sign of danger. When
:05:35. > :05:38.Suarez is looking at his number, Jagielka is in big trouble. He
:05:39. > :05:41.hasn't got a clue where he is. He has him where he wants. Suarez can
:05:42. > :05:45.see the ball coming in. He knows where it is. He has the flight. I
:05:46. > :05:50.tell you what, there is still a lot of work to be done when that ball
:05:51. > :05:51.arrives on him. He has - he has to guide the ball, he has to control
:05:52. > :05:55.the ball. There is guide the ball, he has to control
:05:56. > :05:58.on the ball. It's a fantastic header. Defensively,
:05:59. > :05:59.on the ball. It's a fantastic disappointing. A special header.
:06:00. > :06:08.Special player. He is a killer. disappointing. A special header.
:06:09. > :06:14.the left-back Baines should have been there. His movement is
:06:15. > :06:19.marvellous. Perfect timing. Then you have to have the left-back who backs
:06:20. > :06:20.you up. That was missing. Positionally all wrong and lack
:06:21. > :06:26.you up. That was missing. the second one, Rio, that is basic
:06:27. > :06:31.schoolboy defending? It's a straight ball. The keeper has the ball, he
:06:32. > :06:35.kicks it up the pitch. Jagielka here is in no-man's-land. He is not
:06:36. > :06:39.attacking the ball or covering. If you are caught in the middle, there
:06:40. > :06:41.is no chance to recover. He leaves Cahill in a
:06:42. > :06:48.is no chance to recover. He leaves should have got over
:06:49. > :06:51.is no chance to recover. He leaves captain. Aren't you taught as a kid,
:06:52. > :06:55.when that ball is coming in there, alarm bells should be ringing? Me,
:06:56. > :06:57.personally, I'm dropping off alarm bells should be ringing? Me,
:06:58. > :07:03.making sure there is nothing between me and the goalkeeper. Or if you are
:07:04. > :07:06.not doing that, you attack the ball and win the ball.
:07:07. > :07:09.not doing that, you attack the ball neither. You get punished. He has
:07:10. > :07:13.one chance to go through. He had two chances to score and he's banged
:07:14. > :07:18.them both in. If that was to happen on a Sunday morning, the manager on
:07:19. > :07:23.the sideline would be disappointed. When you walked up here 20 minutes
:07:24. > :07:29.ago, you said, "What were they doing?" Yes, you have to expect that
:07:30. > :07:32.he will lose the ball. You have to expect, as a defender that, the ball
:07:33. > :07:39.will come right there. Then you have Suarez around you. That has to be
:07:40. > :07:44.alarming. It is not a bad finish - head down, as hard as you can.
:07:45. > :07:49.Wonderful finish. Who does that remind you of? Hit it as hard as you
:07:50. > :07:55.can! Wayne Rooney has scored his goal. It was sadly worthless in the
:07:56. > :08:00.end. Who knows the way things pan out. He started the move.
:08:01. > :08:05.We have him highlighted in the left-back position. He shows great
:08:06. > :08:10.desire to get up there. It was good play, this was. Johnson gets
:08:11. > :08:14.forward. Gets the little bit of luck that he needs, good play, a little
:08:15. > :08:19.block. Rooney is in the right place. Good finish. It was good to see him
:08:20. > :08:23.be in there. He had two or three chances before that. Lesser guys
:08:24. > :08:28.might have shied away from it, but no. He got in there. He stuck it
:08:29. > :08:32.away for his first World Cup goal. With the mentality that he had there
:08:33. > :08:36.playing as a striker, that is what got him in that position. He has the
:08:37. > :08:39.mentality of playing up front, to make that run into the box. The
:08:40. > :08:45.other day, starting on the left, he would have held his position. Let's
:08:46. > :08:49.get the thoughts of the England manager, Roy Hodgson.
:08:50. > :08:57.Commiserations, Roy. The game plan was executed as you planned. Was it
:08:58. > :09:02.a moment of magic from a world-class player that undone England? The
:09:03. > :09:07.first goal certainly was. The second goal was a defensive mistake on our
:09:08. > :09:12.part. We done well enough to get back in the game to 1-1. Even, to be
:09:13. > :09:17.honest, we could go on to win the game at that point. We had quite a
:09:18. > :09:31.dominance. Of course, when they scored the second goal, time ran out
:09:32. > :09:42.on us. Am bitterly disappointed. It is a major sadness for me. Sadness
:09:43. > :09:52.for us all. A quick one - Balotelli has tweeted the following, "If we
:09:53. > :09:56.beat Costa Rica I want a kiss from the Queen!"
:09:57. > :10:06.We shall try and sort it! Let's turn our attention to tonight's game. Two
:10:07. > :10:26.sides play tonight who got off to a rotten start - we know the feeling.
:10:27. > :10:42.COMMENTARY: What a good cross. On the end of it is Bony. They have
:10:43. > :10:49.scored again, it is Gervinho. Ivory Coast 2, Japan 1. It's crept in,
:10:50. > :10:57.what a start for Colombia. Gutierrez makes it two. Rodriguez - 3-0.
:10:58. > :11:04.Greece well beaten in this opening game.
:11:05. > :11:16.GARY LINEKER: The game takes place in the Estadio das Dunas in Natal.
:11:17. > :11:20.Japan will be looking to AC Milan's Honda. Greece will be happy to
:11:21. > :11:25.score. They have fired blanks in six of their previous seven World Cup
:11:26. > :11:31.matches. Their only win coming against ten-man Nigeria four years
:11:32. > :11:35.ago. Colombia's win earlier today means Japan will leap-frog the Ivory
:11:36. > :11:38.Coast if they win by two goals or more. Anything other than a Japanese
:11:39. > :11:43.victory will send the Colombians through to the last 16. A defeat
:11:44. > :11:47.would send Japan out. Greece would retain only a slim chance if they
:11:48. > :11:51.lose. Japan have made it through the group
:11:52. > :11:59.stage in two of the last three World Cups. Patrick Geary can tell us more
:12:00. > :12:06.about them. Japan, the Blue Samurai - fast,
:12:07. > :12:07.finesse and frustrating. Their last trip to Brazil ended with
:12:08. > :12:12.finesse and frustrating. Their last promise but no points. It took until
:12:13. > :12:16.1998 for Japan to reach the World Cup Finals but in the animated
:12:17. > :12:22.world, they made the mark long before that. The captain's
:12:23. > :12:27.adventures were exported around the world and they inspired Fernando
:12:28. > :12:30.Torres to be a footballer. Japan's real-life footballing heroes are the
:12:31. > :12:35.crop of 2002 who reached the last 16 on home soil. The current team are
:12:36. > :12:41.more talented, featuring Keisuke Honda and Shinji Kagawa. If they get
:12:42. > :12:44.it right, the land of the rising sun could be one of football's rising
:12:45. > :12:51.powers. GARY LINEKER: There is Honda, a
:12:52. > :12:56.player you know, Clarence? CLARENCE SEEDORF: A great talent. A
:12:57. > :13:01.great personality. Not really Japanese. Very outspoken,
:13:02. > :13:05.intelligent player. I think to get a bit more out of him at international
:13:06. > :13:09.level, he will have to find a better position. Playing from the middle
:13:10. > :13:15.will be a bit tough for him to find the space. They are a side that play
:13:16. > :13:24.attacking, expansive football and they tend to ship goals in as well.
:13:25. > :13:29.ALAN SHEARER: They tend to start games, Japan, very well, score their
:13:30. > :13:35.goals, but tire in the second half. They have conceded goals in second
:13:36. > :13:39.halves, even just getting here. Again, in the first game. So
:13:40. > :13:45.disappointing for them. They have to rectify that. Greece tend to be
:13:46. > :13:48.dour, Rio. Against Japan, they are in a situation where they have to go
:13:49. > :13:55.for it? RIO FERDINAND: They have to go for
:13:56. > :13:58.it. As we saw in the first game, they are quite a bore to watch. They
:13:59. > :14:02.don't turn you on when you are watching them. They don't look like
:14:03. > :14:06.scoring goals, so hopefully that will change today and we see a
:14:07. > :14:11.better game and a few more goals. Mitroglou is back, we saw him for
:14:12. > :14:16.Fulham when he turned up - ?12 million? Which Mitroglou are we
:14:17. > :14:17.going to see? The one that's disappointed so much at Fulham? Or
:14:18. > :14:20.the one that helped get them here disappointed so much at Fulham? Or
:14:21. > :14:28.the one that helped get them via the play-offs with three goals? He's
:14:29. > :14:32.going to be a big player for them. I am not sure I would like to be
:14:33. > :14:33.involved with this Greece team. They don't look like scoring, to be
:14:34. > :14:49.honest. counterattack that Japan? Yes, they
:14:50. > :14:55.play fast pressure, high pressure. My money is on Japan for today. It
:14:56. > :14:59.is very difficult to change a game, knowing that is the way to play,
:15:00. > :15:06.isn't it? They will need to open up more today. They just don't have any
:15:07. > :15:13.skill up front. They are not creating. It would be a night where
:15:14. > :15:14.to play as a forward in outside! You would get this interest quickly,
:15:15. > :15:33.wouldn't you? Quite possibly! I imagine the mood back home is very
:15:34. > :15:38.glum. Thank you for staying up so late to watch these teams that know
:15:39. > :15:46.exactly what they have to do to continue in the competition. We will
:15:47. > :15:48.pause for the national anthem. The Japanese and the Mogul first. They
:15:49. > :16:13.have big support here. # Chiyo ni yachiyo ni
:16:14. > :16:22.# Sazare-ishi no # Iwao to narite
:16:23. > :16:51.# Koke no musu made. # If Japan lose here, they are right.
:16:52. > :17:01.If they do win, they are definitely through this evening.
:17:02. > :18:11.It is their first World Cup meeting. Greece have just won the tree in
:18:12. > :18:17.five games in 2014. Just under 500 miles from their training base. The
:18:18. > :18:24.Japanese have flown 3500 miles from their base in Sao Paulo from their
:18:25. > :18:29.last game. The torrential rain has just stopped. It is about 29
:18:30. > :18:35.Celsius. Japan make two changes from their opener. Shinji Kagawa is
:18:36. > :18:41.dropped after losing possession so often. Yoshito Okubo has been
:18:42. > :18:55.brought back from four years in the international wilderness to replace
:18:56. > :19:04.him. Maya Yoshida from Southampton is playing.
:19:05. > :19:21.Makoto Hasebe has been passed fit to play. He is massive for the team.
:19:22. > :19:36.The referee ruled over the Argentina against Bosnia-Herzegovina gamer.
:19:37. > :19:57.A couple of changes for Greece as well. Kostas Mitroglou comes in.
:19:58. > :20:25.Dimitris Salpingidis has been axed. Giorgos Samaras, from Celtic, will
:20:26. > :20:31.be on the wing. Will the coach have attacked its right? There is the
:20:32. > :20:37.wily old Alberto Zaccheroni. He guided Japan to the Asian title.
:20:38. > :20:42.Japan was the first country to qualify for these finals, by the
:20:43. > :20:49.way. There is Fernando Santos. He has never suffered back-to-back
:20:50. > :20:55.defeats in charge. He conceded only six goals in 12 qualifiers, but they
:20:56. > :20:57.were very open in defence in the first game of this competition.
:20:58. > :21:22.Japan will get us under way. Dimitris Salpingidis will want to
:21:23. > :21:26.come on, after having been dropped. Shinji Kagawa will be disappointed
:21:27. > :21:34.to be on the bench, having scored five goals in international is in
:21:35. > :21:39.the last months. No one has morphed -- has had more shots on goal for
:21:40. > :21:57.Greece than Giorgos Samaras. There is Eiji Kawashima, who played
:21:58. > :22:00.so well in the last World Cup. We are waiting for the officials to say
:22:01. > :22:08.go. Japan will be playing left to right in this first half. They have
:22:09. > :22:16.been out there a long time. This one please them, Martin, having to wait
:22:17. > :22:21.this long? No, it won't. I expect Japan to go for the jugular in this
:22:22. > :22:29.game. You can see the delegate down there with the fourth official, from
:22:30. > :22:40.Tahiti. The referee is from El Salvador.
:22:41. > :22:48.This stadium holds 42,000 people. There are not as many seats empty as
:22:49. > :23:04.there were in the opening game we saw here, Mexico beating Cameroon.
:23:05. > :23:08.Up front, Shinji Okazaki can play up the middle or play wide. He has
:23:09. > :23:17.started wide with Yuya Osako playing up the middle.
:23:18. > :23:25.Makoto Hasebe was out from December until the last day of the season in
:23:26. > :23:32.the Bundesliga with a knee injury. Orestis Karnezis is the Greek
:23:33. > :23:40.goalkeeper, on loan from Grenada. It was interesting there, they were
:23:41. > :23:44.trying to get the ball through the Keisuke Honda. He is there going to
:23:45. > :23:50.player. He is a very good player. I would like to see him playing higher
:23:51. > :24:00.up the pitch, but they want him there, pulling the strings.
:24:01. > :24:07.The first shot of the game is blocked and comes bouncing back out
:24:08. > :24:13.to Hotaru Yamaguchi. Indeed Julie, Greece looks suspect down the
:24:14. > :24:31.left-hand side. Jose Holebas looked nervous at the
:24:32. > :24:38.last European Championship. He made a lot of mistakes. Hotaru Yamaguchi
:24:39. > :24:56.had a shot on the edge of the box is.
:24:57. > :25:09.Panagiotis Kone is a player who has impressed me. They can pass the
:25:10. > :25:17.ball, but in the final third, it don't have anyone to finish it off.
:25:18. > :25:23.Kostas Katsouranis notched up a Greek international record at the
:25:24. > :25:35.World Cup with 17 passes. He is their most capped player.
:25:36. > :25:49.The Japanese side has not changed much in the last few years.
:25:50. > :25:55.There has been a big change in Japanese football over the last ten
:25:56. > :26:00.years, the number of players who come and play in Europe. Three of
:26:01. > :26:27.their back four are currently based in Europe, plus the goalkeeper.
:26:28. > :26:38.The goalkeeper keeps it in. Kostas Mitroglou scored five goals in
:26:39. > :26:43.qualifying for Greece. Giorgos Samaras with that touch. I would
:26:44. > :26:48.like to see him play as a centre forward, but he plays on the left.
:26:49. > :26:51.It just shows due, you don't need to play down the middle. His contract
:26:52. > :27:00.has run out at Celtic. Strong challenge on the Panagiotis
:27:01. > :27:11.Kone by the Right, Atsuto Uchida. This is the first corner of the
:27:12. > :27:39.game. You have been in these finals before
:27:40. > :28:09.as a player, Martin. You You have been in these finals before
:28:10. > :28:12.yourself mentally prepared for one You have been in these finals before
:28:13. > :28:15.result, then all of You have been in these finals before
:28:16. > :28:24.snatched away from you. How does it work? It is so dramatic. England
:28:25. > :28:28.will be thinking about going home. They were just a couple of goals
:28:29. > :28:33.away from going into the next round. It is emotionally very draining. You
:28:34. > :28:35.think the first game is big, then the second is even bigger, then you
:28:36. > :29:02.are right! -- out! You are looking at Keisuke Honda,
:29:03. > :29:04.wanting him at the end of the ball. I don't think he has the vision to
:29:05. > :29:27.play in there. Cleared up by Kostas Manolas. Shinji
:29:28. > :29:31.Okazaki was onside. Shinji Okazaki will come in and make that run from
:29:32. > :29:45.white sessions. Just not able to bring it down.
:29:46. > :30:31.MARTIN KEOWN: Just backing in. Yoshida is brave.
:30:32. > :30:35.Torosidis covered there. He didn't see much action for Roma towards the
:30:36. > :30:54.end of the season. Uchida was out for three
:30:55. > :31:02.the end of May with a thigh problem. Here's Samaras. Showed far too much
:31:03. > :31:09.of it. He's chased back well, though. Well
:31:10. > :31:17.done. Both guilty of the same mistake,
:31:18. > :32:09.loitering with the ball. Konno. Sat on the bench at World Cup
:32:10. > :32:21.2010. He was a regular through qualifying. Has it once more.
:32:22. > :32:31.A lot of rotation from the Japanese front flee. It is down that
:32:32. > :32:40.left-hand side where they like to get down. It comes back off the
:32:41. > :32:43.goalkeeper! Kone. We talked about him breaking from midfield. He has
:32:44. > :32:47.good pace and energy and he is direct. Goes straight at the
:32:48. > :32:55.defence. No lack of confidence here. He just drills it. It is going to be
:32:56. > :32:56.a wondergoal if he puts it in from there, but that is the threat he
:32:57. > :33:07.has. He is capable of wondergoals. Relegated with Bologna
:33:08. > :33:27.and he was in tears on the pitch. He is all over him there, isn't he?
:33:28. > :33:32.His last international goal was at Euro 2012, but the manager persists
:33:33. > :33:36.with him because he believes he can give them something different down
:33:37. > :34:04.this left-hand side - height, presence. He has pace as well.
:34:05. > :34:19.Very tentative early on. That's poor. Nearly given away - and was.
:34:20. > :34:23.The free-kick given. And a yellow card for Hasebe. It was a bad ball
:34:24. > :34:36.to him from Yoshida. He has had to take that foul.
:34:37. > :35:12.All of a sudden, the wind has got up in Natal.
:35:13. > :35:27.It was aimed in towards Sokratis Papastathopoulos.
:35:28. > :35:36.He was an injury doubt coming into these finals. He got a muscle strain
:35:37. > :35:41.against Portugal in one of the warm-up games. He is all over his
:35:42. > :35:47.opponent there, isn't he? It is an area where they can be strong in as
:35:48. > :35:57.well, Greece. Just let Japan off the hook by fouling him.
:35:58. > :36:09.That's a decent enough turn away by Okazaki. Okazaki, he is
:36:10. > :36:17.in-between position, very difficult to pick up.
:36:18. > :36:22.in-between position, very difficult that width for his team. Maniatis.
:36:23. > :36:34.Now, Kone has come to the left-hand side. Great fun to watch
:36:35. > :36:35.Now, Kone has come to the left-hand As the boys in the studio were
:36:36. > :36:39.saying beforehand, they tend to As the boys in the studio were
:36:40. > :36:44.away in games. They did so in their opener here against the Ivory Coast.
:36:45. > :36:48.But Hasebe went off that day. And they had no-one to cover that
:36:49. > :36:53.left-hand side of the defence. Shortly after he went off, they
:36:54. > :36:56.conceded two from almost identical positions - crosses from the right.
:36:57. > :37:10.That is where Hasebe would have guarded.
:37:11. > :37:25.Free-kick. Yamaguchi has been through a lot of work in the
:37:26. > :37:43.Japanese midfield. Hasebe sits deep. There he is.
:37:44. > :37:53.Japan start again. Veering towards that left-hand side. I'm looking for
:37:54. > :38:02.Japan start again. Veering towards quicker. Not sure Honda needs to
:38:03. > :38:10.Japan start again. Veering towards - they have moved the ball. No-one
:38:11. > :38:26.moves quicker than Honda with the little
:38:27. > :39:02.Nearly came to him. Japan playing Nagatomo,
:39:03. > :39:09.left-winger. Yes. Honda will look for him again. There he goes again.
:39:10. > :39:28.Osako in close, that's offside. Just caught offside. Linesman has
:39:29. > :39:46.done ever so well there. Honda trying to pick him out. There's been
:39:47. > :40:04.a lot of goals for him before making the move to Germany.
:40:05. > :40:11.A fair number of the Greek players were hindered by injuries towards
:40:12. > :40:17.the tail end of the season, or had their season ended early to prepare
:40:18. > :40:21.for the World Cup. They were caught cold against Colombia. They had a
:40:22. > :40:26.decent warm-up period drawing with Portugal and Nigeria and beating
:40:27. > :40:30.Bolivia. His team were slow out of the traps. His team took the lead
:40:31. > :40:47.and then faded, Alberto Zaccheroni. Opportunist effort from Osako. He
:40:48. > :41:18.to him. Opportunist effort from Osako. He
:41:19. > :41:23.was a long way out. We have seen some gaffes from the goalkeepers.
:41:24. > :41:35.Good build-up play. Comfortable for the keeper.
:41:36. > :41:58.Nearly 600 minutes without conceding during that period.
:41:59. > :42:08.Honda played on the right-hand side for Milan, and really warmed to the
:42:09. > :42:18.task when I saw them. Did well enough towards the end of the
:42:19. > :42:26.season. Lots of politics at that club. As Clarence will probably tell
:42:27. > :42:31.you. Here's Torosidis and Maniatis combining.
:42:32. > :42:47.Both showing each other an awful lot of respect here. Japan were very
:42:48. > :42:52.conscious that they gave the ball away too often, I think that's what
:42:53. > :42:54.cost Shinji Kagawa his place in the side. They are trying to be calmer
:42:55. > :43:09.in possession. It curled just wide. Wow, what a wonderful effort there.
:43:10. > :43:11.Osako. Fantastic effort. He makes it all himself, but he takes it on from
:43:12. > :43:17.distance. Bends all himself, but he takes it on from
:43:18. > :43:19.foot. It looked like it was going to end up in the top right-hand corner.
:43:20. > :43:34.Great effort. He gets around it just too much. We
:43:35. > :43:40.thought we would have goals. Greece haven't kept a clean sheet in seven
:43:41. > :43:45.games at a World Cup Finals. And Japan, over the last 12 months, in
:43:46. > :43:52.18 games, have kept just two clean sheets. Here's Holebas. He was
:43:53. > :43:58.looking for Mitroglou in the middle and it came too near to the
:43:59. > :44:03.goalkeeper, Kawashima. That's Holebas down this left-hand side.
:44:04. > :44:08.It's as if that chance has stung them into life. That was not a good
:44:09. > :44:12.enough cross. That is the problem with these full-backs when they get
:44:13. > :44:26.into these high positions - they need the quality at the end of it.
:44:27. > :44:36.beforehand, thinking about that other results? The thing is, you
:44:37. > :44:42.only have three games. Three lives, then you are right. I thought Japan
:44:43. > :44:48.would be more attacking minded. It is cagey. Still early stages in the
:44:49. > :44:51.match. I expect Japan to go on and win it, but I would like to see them
:44:52. > :45:06.do more. Well dealt with by Vasilis
:45:07. > :45:27.Torosidis. I think Japan is a much better team
:45:28. > :45:33.with Yasuhito Endo in the side. It gives more freedom to Keisuke Honda.
:45:34. > :45:52.Yasuhito Endo is 34 years old. Yasuhito Endo did come on from the
:45:53. > :46:00.bench a couple of times in qualifying. He played well.
:46:01. > :46:17.The referee is unhappy, he wanted taken again.
:46:18. > :46:27.I think it was Kostas Manolas was getting a bit too physical. He has
:46:28. > :46:50.come onto the scene this season, the 23-year-old.
:46:51. > :46:58.We have seen lots of Japanese supporters around Brazil. 1.5
:46:59. > :47:08.million people of Japanese descent live in the country. They came over
:47:09. > :47:09.to either alone or a work that copy plantations in a deal between the
:47:10. > :47:29.two governments. There was a push their by Yuya
:47:30. > :47:37.Osako. He has made himself busy. He is a German second division player.
:47:38. > :47:42.His arm was a big too high. He comes in off the line really well, making
:47:43. > :48:09.space for his full-back, Yuto Nagatomo, the come down the side.
:48:10. > :48:13.They say you should never buy a player of the back of the World Cup,
:48:14. > :48:24.don't they? That is a foul. Kostas Katsouranis
:48:25. > :49:18.decided to stop them breaking away. Nice little bit of skill there. It
:49:19. > :49:41.is a great block. That is about the nearest they have got, really.
:49:42. > :49:53.Yoshito Okubo manage to win the foul. He has his arms on him,
:49:54. > :50:00.doesn't he? He is pulling at him. Yoshito Okubo has looked lively when
:50:01. > :50:11.he has that central position. Keisuke Honda fancies this one. The
:50:12. > :50:15.foul was given away by Sokratis. He is a better player than that.
:50:16. > :51:18.Keisuke Honda stands over it. A bit of afters between Vasilis
:51:19. > :51:25.Torosidis and Shinji Okazaki. That is a good effort. We have seen a lot
:51:26. > :51:31.of goalkeepers struggling to hold onto the ball here. He deals with
:51:32. > :51:34.that in the end. Good quality by Keisuke Honda, just not in the
:51:35. > :52:11.corner enough. It has been pouring with rain in the
:52:12. > :52:20.sunshine resort! After the rain in the opening match, a massive crater
:52:21. > :52:32.opened up, swallowing 20 houses! Has he pulled a muscle? Has he taken a
:52:33. > :52:45.hit? He is capable of giving them the edge that they need. Film fans
:52:46. > :52:51.will probably disagree with that, he was so disappointing. He came with a
:52:52. > :52:58.knee injury to Craven Cottage, barely played a game and then
:52:59. > :53:06.slipped away. It was just a dig in the ribs. They hurt, they are
:53:07. > :53:12.painful. I'm not sure he needs to be down this long with it! He has taken
:53:13. > :53:23.a bit of arrest. He was not nearly fit enough in the full jersey. Have
:53:24. > :53:28.you ever been to the World Cup, to plan things out to finish first or
:53:29. > :53:34.second in the group? You knew what was in front of you. Generally, in
:53:35. > :53:40.the England shirt, you need to win. If you can win your matches, it
:53:41. > :53:45.takes care of itself. What did you think about the England performance?
:53:46. > :53:51.It was very disappointing. We showed a bit of dirt, but looking at the
:53:52. > :53:59.goals that week conceded, look at Mario Balotelli, if you switch for
:54:00. > :54:05.one you get honest. Basic mistakes in defending. If you show your
:54:06. > :54:12.number to the opponent, queue be beaten. We know all about Luis
:54:13. > :55:14.Suarez. -- you will be beaten. Maya Yoshida very rarely lets them
:55:15. > :55:24.down. When the ball comes into central areas, Japan just lacks that
:55:25. > :55:31.little bit of quality sometimes. The header goes over from Yoshito Okubo.
:55:32. > :55:39.He was not picked up. Again, look, great ball in and it is not a very
:55:40. > :55:48.good finish. If they could just get that right, they would be in front
:55:49. > :55:58.in this match. Yasuyuki Konno is distraught!
:55:59. > :56:10.Greece are warming up substitute. I think Kostas Mitroglou will not be
:56:11. > :56:29.able to continue. His bad 2014 continues.
:56:30. > :56:39.Well squeeze the way by Sokratis. His season started so well, winning
:56:40. > :56:49.the German Super Cup, second in the league. We will have the change.
:56:50. > :57:22.Misery heaped on misery. league. We will have the change.
:57:23. > :57:45.replacing Kostas Mitroglou. Another chance for Keisuke Honda. 71%
:57:46. > :57:51.Japanese possession at the moment. Jose Holebas was the one who was
:57:52. > :57:57.caught. It is what you do with the possession, though. They need to
:57:58. > :57:58.take their chances. They need to turn these chances into
:57:59. > :58:42.opportunities. good example of good old-fashioned
:58:43. > :58:58.defending. Sokratis first to the There has been no real end product
:58:59. > :59:08.at either end. Columbia beat Ivory Coast 2-1
:59:09. > :59:20.earlier. Mitroglou Columbia beat Ivory Coast 2-1
:59:21. > :59:34.the hour Mark. Fetfatzidis scored the next. Columbia top the group
:59:35. > :59:39.with six points. The Japanese and Greek fans will not be completely
:59:40. > :59:42.dismayed if it stays as a draw. Colombia will be in high spirits,
:59:43. > :59:57.JONATHAN PEARCE: A red for definitely have gone through.
:59:58. > :00:01.JONATHAN PEARCE: A red for Katsouranis and this is significant
:00:02. > :00:03.for Greece. He knits things together in there.
:00:04. > :00:06.for Greece. He knits things together MARTIN KEOWN: That is ridiculous,
:00:07. > :00:15.the captain. A MARTIN KEOWN: That is ridiculous,
:00:16. > :00:20.discipline. This could MARTIN KEOWN: That is ridiculous,
:00:21. > :00:25.them. He protects the defence. MARTIN KEOWN: That is ridiculous,
:00:26. > :00:41.the midfield together with his passing and he's gone. Yeah. Just
:00:42. > :00:47.looking at it here - he lunges in. If you are on a yellow, it's a real
:00:48. > :00:51.risk. Booked after 27 minutes and 11 minutes later, he is dismissed. He's
:00:52. > :00:57.left his team in a lot of trouble here. Here, Japan are on the attack
:00:58. > :01:09.immediately. Another last-ditch tackle that stops
:01:10. > :01:19.him. 50 minutes they will have to play with ten men. Honda with the
:01:20. > :01:27.corner. Their first of the game. Osako is just outside the six-yard
:01:28. > :01:29.area. Kone up from the back and Yoshida. Osako makes the run to the
:01:30. > :01:43.near post. Away by Gekas. They have lost their main hope for
:01:44. > :01:48.goals - injured - and their captain has been sent off.
:01:49. > :01:55.Torosidis was strong there. He can shoot. Comes back to Gekas. That is
:01:56. > :02:05.a stinging effort. A great effort by the veteran full-back. A top save.
:02:06. > :02:07.Fantastic save. Kawashima, the Japanese goalkeeper, Torosidis - it
:02:08. > :02:15.breaks for him - and he thumps it. A Japanese goalkeeper, Torosidis - it
:02:16. > :02:23.quality save. A lot of determination in that. Cat-like reflexes from the
:02:24. > :02:37.goalkeeper. Kawashima, a very good save. Honda missed that one. Osako.
:02:38. > :02:40.There was concern that Torosidis was standing in an offside position, but
:02:41. > :02:57.he made no attempt to play the ball. That's Katsouranis's red card of
:02:58. > :03:03.this campaign. His team-mates are trying to do the best without him.
:03:04. > :03:05.That's offside. He was sent off in the qualifying campaign. Gekas up
:03:06. > :03:17.Fetfatzidis is being substituted. front.
:03:18. > :03:38.Fetfatzidis is being substituted. This will be a move in response to
:03:39. > :03:42.the sending off. And Giorgos Karagounis is coming on and he will
:03:43. > :03:46.just sit in there. Karagounis and Katsouranis have been together so
:03:47. > :03:51.many times in the Greek side. Karagounis now will be restricted to
:03:52. > :04:01.substitute appearances. This is his 137th cap. Karagounis is the real
:04:02. > :04:05.spirit of the team. He will be trying to get that bit extra out of
:04:06. > :04:09.them. It is up to Japan to move this ball quickly. They are up against
:04:10. > :04:15.ten players and they have to make use of that extra player. Honda.
:04:16. > :04:24.He will just sit in there, Karagounis, the job that Katsouranis
:04:25. > :04:27.was doing. Greece very much now will invite Japan to attack them and try
:04:28. > :04:33.and catch them on the counter. Osako. Yuto Nagatomo. Holebas with
:04:34. > :05:12.the header away. Torosidis - the world is on his
:05:13. > :05:16.shoulders at the moment. He is an angry man. They have to keep their
:05:17. > :05:34.heads, the Greeks. They have already lost one player.
:05:35. > :05:41.That's a foul. The referee is having none of it. Has he given it the
:05:42. > :05:43.other way for handball. He saw a dive there. Kone going in to the
:05:44. > :06:17.challenge. He went down easily. Japan won the only previous meeting
:06:18. > :06:21.between the two sides. Here's a free-kick for Greece, Samaras's
:06:22. > :06:26.shirt was tugged. The retch re-is showing a bit of similar -- the
:06:27. > :06:32.referee is showing a bit of a sympathy to the Greek players. He
:06:33. > :06:38.had no option but to pull a red card out. No, but since then, he has been
:06:39. > :06:41.giving the Greeks quite a few of the decisions. Karagounis with the
:06:42. > :06:45.free-kick. Gekas is forward. Torosidis there as well. Sokratis is
:06:46. > :06:56.up from the back. I think Torosidis realises he should
:06:57. > :06:58.have done better. It's a good ball in. Torosidis gets his head to it.
:06:59. > :07:06.He puts it off target. Nearly went to Fulham in 2013. Then
:07:07. > :07:32.went to Roma from Olympiakos. This almost suits the Greeks down to
:07:33. > :07:36.ten men. They don't necessarily want to attack, so they are happy to sit
:07:37. > :07:39.in and catch them on the break. Tactics that served them so well in
:07:40. > :07:41.winning the European Championships in Portugal, you will remember. Two
:07:42. > :07:52.minutes of stoppage-time in Natal. Deep cross, pulled all the way back,
:07:53. > :08:20.hoping to find Osako. Karagounis. They still have players of real
:08:21. > :08:25.talent out there - Kone. He realises his team have to be wary, but from
:08:26. > :08:28.this position, against ten men... Both managers want to get their
:08:29. > :08:34.teams in at half-time and sort it out. Karagounis.
:08:35. > :08:53.Torosidis. Maniatis is there. Holebas is in the left full-back
:08:54. > :09:01.position. Maniatis into the box. Offside. Let's have a look at this
:09:02. > :09:03.ball. I don't think he is offside. It is a really poor
:09:04. > :09:12.ball. I don't think he is offside. the linesman. He is in. Certainly
:09:13. > :09:14.wasn't he. Samaras putting in a good shift down the left-hand side for
:09:15. > :09:28.Greece and he will need to. Decent efforts for Japan in the
:09:29. > :09:34.the other end from Kone, Torosidis. the other end from Kone, Torosidis.
:09:35. > :09:38.We have had no goals. We have had two minutes of stoppage-time and we
:09:39. > :09:43.have the half-time whistle. The game's big talking point, the
:09:44. > :09:47.sending off of the Greek captain, Kostas Katsouranis. Food for thought
:09:48. > :09:50.for his coach as he goes in at half-time. They have also lost their
:09:51. > :09:55.main striker, Kostas Mitroglou, with an injury. Here in Natal, it is
:09:56. > :10:03.Japan 0, Greece 0. GARY LINEKER: There is nothing like
:10:04. > :10:07.a thrilling game of football to cheer you up after an early
:10:08. > :10:14.defeat(!) Not much in this game, Clarence? Exactly what we expected.
:10:15. > :10:16.An exciting game, a lot of shots on goal(!).
:10:17. > :10:25.Every time the Greeks come up, they are putting a wall in front of their
:10:26. > :10:31.goal. The Japanese are not taking advantage of the space that there is
:10:32. > :10:36.still on the sides. Yeah. That's it. Not the best. We can talk about two
:10:37. > :10:38.yellow cards and that led to a red, of course. Katsouranis. I thought
:10:39. > :14:17.the first one was a bad tackle. is a great fighter, and has talent,
:14:18. > :14:22.a great right foot. I'm just looking at the lack of movement by Kostas
:14:23. > :14:33.Mitroglou here. I am waiting for him to do something, move, or gets the
:14:34. > :14:36.goalkeeper. Nothing at all. They have to gamble, go there expecting
:14:37. > :14:44.the ball to run through. They are just not interested. Injured again,
:14:45. > :14:47.unfortunately. Let's remind cells of what happened earlier. We are
:14:48. > :15:01.suckers for punishment. Daniel Sturridge, trying to get it
:15:02. > :15:12.through the Wayne Rooney. It was blocked by a hand.
:15:13. > :15:29.I was out of my seat there! I thought it was in! That was a
:15:30. > :15:36.mistake by Phil Jagielka. He just left his leg. Something different,
:15:37. > :15:46.and the cod England right! That was a great effort by Cavani. Off the
:15:47. > :16:00.bar! Wayne Rooney came in and came so close!
:16:01. > :16:09.Here is Cavani. Glen Johnson backing away. Luis Suarez on the end of it.
:16:10. > :16:18.He gives Uruguay the lead! Brilliant movement by the Liverpool man. Just
:16:19. > :16:27.a ricochet past Steven Gerrard. Great ball by Cavani. England have
:16:28. > :16:37.to get their heads right. Here is
:16:38. > :16:49.for goal! Muslera did well. It nearly went in again. England are
:16:50. > :17:23.up against it. A brilliant stop by Muslera. That
:17:24. > :17:30.was the best moment of the match so far by England. Great saves. Nicely
:17:31. > :17:37.done by Daniel Sturridge. Nicely done by Glen Johnson. Wayne Rooney
:17:38. > :17:44.is there! His first ever World Cup final school! How wonderful cross by
:17:45. > :17:48.Glen Johnson. He deserved that goal, Wayne Rooney, the night. -- the
:17:49. > :18:12.night. There is no flag. Luis Suarez!
:18:13. > :18:16.of the most simple goals he will ever see. England lost
:18:17. > :18:23.concentration. Most crucially, they lost Luis Suarez! I can't believe
:18:24. > :18:36.for all the beautiful football in this turbulent, it was just a long
:18:37. > :18:43.ball upfield. The emotion is written large across Luis Suarez and his
:18:44. > :18:51.team-mates. It just had to be Luis Suarez.
:18:52. > :18:56.I thought we did well enough to get back in the game to get it back to
:18:57. > :19:01.one - one. I even thought we could go on and win the game at that
:19:02. > :19:06.point. When they scored the second goal, time ran out. I am
:19:07. > :19:11.disappointed for everybody. We came with such high hopes are not able to
:19:12. > :19:20.deliver. We were in the driving seat all game. We had there back to the
:19:21. > :19:26.wall. They were defending deep. They got the goal from a long kick. It is
:19:27. > :19:30.incredibly the stripping. We have one more game and we have to hope we
:19:31. > :19:35.have something to play for. No one let me down, the team down, the
:19:36. > :19:43.country down. We made the mistake with the second goal and that has
:19:44. > :19:49.put us out. So, England's Fiat is out of their hands. If the Italians
:19:50. > :19:55.won the two remaining games, England could still qualify on goal
:19:56. > :20:03.difference by beating Costa Rica. Let's more reaction. Daniel
:20:04. > :20:07.Sturridge has tweeted, I feel sick right now. Heartbroken. Sorry to the
:20:08. > :20:12.fans and everyone back home, but it isn't over until it is over.
:20:13. > :20:21.Newspaper reactions. These are the headlines tomorrow morning. The
:20:22. > :20:26.Daily Mirror says that England was tormented by Luis Suarez. The Times
:20:27. > :20:32.uses a boxing analogy, with England on the ropes. The front page of the
:20:33. > :20:40.daily Star claims that England needs divine intervention. They certainly
:20:41. > :20:46.need something miraculous to get through. I don't agree with what Joe
:20:47. > :20:51.Hart said. He felt there were the better team. I thought they were the
:20:52. > :20:55.better team from every 15 or 20 minutes in the second half when they
:20:56. > :20:59.got the goal and Wayne Rooney had another chance. Other than that, I
:21:00. > :21:04.don't think they played particularly well. There were huge questions
:21:05. > :21:07.don't think they played particularly the defending. Ultimately, that is
:21:08. > :21:13.what cost us. They came here with flu expert nations. It is an unusual
:21:14. > :21:18.mix of young players and players in the twilight of their careers.
:21:19. > :21:26.Should we have expected much better? What is most disappointing today is
:21:27. > :21:32.that the game was a step backwards in terms of the performance. There
:21:33. > :21:59.were positives from the Italy game. This performance today was subdued
:22:00. > :22:00.in some respect. Wayne Rooney was probably the only real bright
:22:01. > :22:01.spark. It seemed like a step backwards. We can look to the
:22:02. > :22:04.future. Perhaps the one real let down was the winning goal. It was
:22:05. > :22:07.such a shambles. We talk about experience players. These are two
:22:08. > :22:12.experienced players. As a defender you can't get out of your line. Luis
:22:13. > :22:17.Suarez has to be marked to every second of the game. Poor judgement.
:22:18. > :22:22.You always second of the game. Poor judgement.
:22:23. > :22:29.ball can come through. This is just incredible, incredible. This is the
:22:30. > :22:34.same Uruguay that conceded three goals against Costa Rica. I was
:22:35. > :22:54.reading that England should go on and win this game. But they didn't
:22:55. > :23:11.have Luis Suarez, to be fair. Remember the World Cup against
:23:12. > :23:30.Germany last time? We have not learned our lessons. This is painful
:23:31. > :23:39.to watch, isn't it? A familiar story. A long kick up the field.
:23:40. > :23:49.When you least expect to be hit, that is when it happens. At that
:23:50. > :23:59.point of the game, we look at like we were going to win. Godin, should
:24:00. > :24:08.he have had a second yellow card? I think so. I think extremely lucky.
:24:09. > :24:11.That was a goal opportunity. I think you've was really lucky here. I
:24:12. > :24:14.mean, that should have been a yellow card, no doubt about that. He
:24:15. > :24:16.impeded Daniel Sturridge and he would have got there if he didn't
:24:17. > :24:17.stick his arm in his face. Great forward play, stopped by shrewd
:24:18. > :24:18.defending, really. Wayne Rooney, your team-mate, colleague.
:24:19. > :24:20.defending, really. Wayne Rooney, playing in his customary role. From
:24:21. > :24:31.the first minute use a much more comfortable looking Wayne Rooney.
:24:32. > :24:37.There was a free kick in the last game, and he let Steven Gerrard
:24:38. > :24:43.ticket. He banks closing day in, day out in training. When he is
:24:44. > :24:57.confident, and goals are flowing, that would have gone in. That is one
:24:58. > :25:03.he should have scored. Yes, he had enough of the gold to go for, not
:25:04. > :25:15.just straight at the goalkeeper. You need to have admired this. He wins
:25:16. > :25:22.the ball. This is really good play. Superb from Daniel Sturridge and
:25:23. > :25:26.Glen Johnson. It is the kind of goal you want to see. Back at the
:25:27. > :25:32.beginning of the turn and, Steven Gerrard said there are no excuses.
:25:33. > :25:38.No excuses for in them. We weren't good enough when it really mattered.
:25:39. > :25:49.Well, it is Japan against Greece at the moment. No goal so far.
:25:50. > :25:59.Giorgos Samaras has gone for it straightaway! A very cheeky advert
:26:00. > :26:05.from the Celtic striker. Look at this! Certainly worth the effort,
:26:06. > :26:21.the goalkeeper had his back turned to yet.
:26:22. > :26:30.Yasuhito Endo has come on for the captain, Makoto Hasebe. He is
:26:31. > :26:51.obviously still suffering from the knee injury he was suffering from
:26:52. > :26:59.for a good part of this year. JONATHAN PEARCE:, just to remind
:27:00. > :27:06.you, that Greece are down to ten men, because of the sending off of
:27:07. > :27:18.Kostas Katsouranis. Keisuke Honda is playing slightly further forward.
:27:19. > :27:30.If Japan win this, it would be a huge step forward for them. They
:27:31. > :27:31.have only one to out of seven World Cup final matches against European
:27:32. > :27:51.opposition. Japan have lost their opening game
:27:52. > :28:08.of all three World Cups that they have attended.
:28:09. > :28:20.Yasuhito Endo has always played in Japan.
:28:21. > :28:29.If his team does not win, Colombia are definitely through. Alberto
:28:30. > :28:34.Zaccheroni will feel a responsibility, he has had the
:28:35. > :28:37.half-time with the players, they can get their tactics right and they
:28:38. > :28:43.have a real opportunity against ten men. He won a title in his first
:28:44. > :29:06.season with AC Milan, before it all went wrong.
:29:07. > :29:14.He is asking why the decision was given that way. He is quite right,
:29:15. > :29:26.isn't he? JONATHAN PEARCE: No free-kick given.
:29:27. > :30:01.MARTIN KEOWN: That was Straightaway,
:30:02. > :30:07.from Endo. He can find and pick those passes. Scored a terrific goal
:30:08. > :30:21.in South Africa against Denmark from a free-kick.
:30:22. > :30:36.Nagatomo. Pulled by Kone. He can't complain, he put his arm around him.
:30:37. > :31:01.This is the missile deflector, as he was called in Spain.
:31:02. > :31:19.All the way through. He is unlucky there. Honda is
:31:20. > :31:22.All the way through. He is unlucky made that run into space - look at
:31:23. > :31:28.Honda, taking it in there. He tries to find him. Just a bit too much on
:31:29. > :31:32.it. You can be sure Endo is trying to pick out Honda there. Unlucky.
:31:33. > :31:36.He is limited to roles from the bench these days. It is his ninth
:31:37. > :31:41.major tournament. He's bench these days. It is his ninth
:31:42. > :32:08.in the J League best 11 ten seasons. One of the features of this World
:32:09. > :32:13.Cup - and the recent ones going back to 2002 - the number of fans
:32:14. > :32:36.Endo. Turned wide by Yoshida to not involving their countries
:32:37. > :32:39.Endo. Turned wide by Yoshida to Konno.
:32:40. > :32:49.Already, he's changed the game, Endo.
:32:50. > :33:19.Honda and Karagounis went with him - no foul. That is a good challenge
:33:20. > :33:24.from Karagounis. Honda is just about to pull the trigger. Endo, a lovely
:33:25. > :33:57.ball in. Just takes him out. Good challenge.
:33:58. > :34:02.Greece have still only scored in one World Cup Finals game against
:34:03. > :34:25.Nigeria four years ago. Now, Maniatis has left a bit of a
:34:26. > :34:32.gap. No protection on the Greek right-hand side. Honda. And the foul
:34:33. > :34:41.for the challenge on Okubo. Samaras. He's done so much work tracking
:34:42. > :34:51.back. Samaras knows what he is doing here.
:34:52. > :35:11.He is high, he is late. Yellow card. Surely Greece can hang on only so
:35:12. > :35:18.long. The referee ordering the wall back
:35:19. > :36:37.behind the shaving foam line. Japan are going to make another
:36:38. > :36:45.substitution. Shinji Kagawa is waiting to come on. Honda. Goal
:36:46. > :36:47.kick. Karagounis applauds the decision. He is fired up, as he
:36:48. > :37:04.always is playing for his country. It is going to be Yuya Osako who
:37:05. > :37:12.goes off. He was fairly bright in the first 20 minutes or so. But the
:37:13. > :37:19.goal wouldn't come for him, so they have gone for Kagawa, who has five
:37:20. > :37:24.this season for Japan. He lost possession too many times against
:37:25. > :37:28.Ivory Coast. That cost him his place in the starting line-up tonight. 16
:37:29. > :37:43.times he gave the ball away. Just looking at the tactics here
:37:44. > :37:49.from the Japanese manager - it's ring the bell time. You have to play
:37:50. > :37:52.Honda down the middle. He's moved Osako into the middle, when Honda
:37:53. > :38:11.should be the one that plays at the top of the team.
:38:12. > :38:19.Holebas has given chase. There are three in the middle. And they
:38:20. > :38:26.surprised everyone in Portugal in 2004. Can they pull off a major
:38:27. > :38:35.surprise here? Manolas going forward. He is the nephew of the
:38:36. > :38:37.former Bolton player, Stelios. Sokratis is forward. Torosidis is in
:38:38. > :38:53.there as well. Torosidis attacks the near post. Got
:38:54. > :39:02.a glance on. Honda touched it. Kone. Another corner.
:39:03. > :39:07.They will take their time over it, I would imagine. Karagounis will take
:39:08. > :39:22.a long walk over. One table in the restaurant we were
:39:23. > :39:27.in yesterday - there were Greeks, Japanese, Croatians and Australians
:39:28. > :39:38.cheering on Croatia. Karagounis with the cross.
:39:39. > :39:42.He embodies the spirit of Greek football in the modern era,
:39:43. > :39:47.Karagounis. He whips in a football in the modern era,
:39:48. > :39:54.there. They are enjoying the rest as well. They are taking their time.
:39:55. > :40:10.The block by Honda. Honda! The goalkeeper had to make a great save.
:40:11. > :40:13.It came all the way through. Great reflexes from Kawashima.
:40:14. > :40:16.It came all the way through. Great stretch a long way. 6ft 1in
:40:17. > :40:30.goalkeeper. Hasn't scored since March of last
:40:31. > :40:35.year for his country. Actually retired until Fernando Santos
:40:36. > :40:41.persuaded him to come back. The header away, met by Kone. He can hit
:40:42. > :40:52.a spectacular goal, as we were telling you earlier.
:40:53. > :40:58.Gekas was so unlucky. Just comes off the defender. Takes a bit of the
:40:59. > :41:04.sting out of it. Torosidis at the other end. All
:41:05. > :41:25.around the houses! Free-kick. I think Manolas was
:41:26. > :41:30.blocked as he came for it. All these free-kicks are letting Greece off
:41:31. > :41:36.the hook. Japan can't mount enough attacks. They are taking their time
:41:37. > :41:42.again. Presumably Fernando Santos will have told his players to break
:41:43. > :41:44.it up as often as you can. They don't want a rhythmic second half.
:41:45. > :41:50.They want to grab a goal if they can don't want a rhythmic second half.
:41:51. > :42:03.always been difficult to beat. Samaras now. Clipped from behind.
:42:04. > :42:10.Free-kick given. Samaras, that is what he is good at, brings it down
:42:11. > :42:18.on his chest. Definite foul. Maybe not. That gamesmanship again. If
:42:19. > :42:19.there is any doubt, the referee is giving the Greeks every free-kick he
:42:20. > :42:26.can. Karagounis will not be in a hurry.
:42:27. > :42:31.Torosidis up from the Karagounis will not be in a hurry.
:42:32. > :42:40.Manolas. Gekas is in there as well. Kone. Lovely ball. Hard luck.
:42:41. > :42:57.the run. Kone. Lovely ball. Hard luck.
:42:58. > :43:06.Samaras will bring it out. Foul. Honda.
:43:07. > :43:15.Samaras will bring it out. Foul. was waiting for it, Samaras.
:43:16. > :43:34.Down goes Maniatis. Caught by Honda. He brushed him. No mark.
:43:35. > :43:39.You heard the studio debate about England's defending today. What is
:43:40. > :43:43.the major difference between defending in the Premier League and
:43:44. > :43:48.defending at a World Cup Finals? For me, it's concentration. Thinking
:43:49. > :43:52.back to - it is exhausting at times. You have nothing to do for large
:43:53. > :43:56.periods and top players will then punish you with pace. Pace is the
:43:57. > :44:36.key thing. You have to have it and that awareness for danger.
:44:37. > :44:44.The referee is giving the Greeks everything! The Japanese just have
:44:45. > :44:58.to keep their heads. The goalkeeper did not get it
:44:59. > :45:14.plainly that time, but did enough under pressure. Now Shinji Kagawa.
:45:15. > :45:37.Eventually, the referee you visit. -- gives it. The referee looked at
:45:38. > :45:41.the two men on the floor, then allowed the play to go on. I think
:45:42. > :45:52.that is a back problem for Vasilis Torosidis. He was clattered by both
:45:53. > :45:53.the goalkeeper and the defender. Maya Yoshida gets up really well
:45:54. > :46:09.there. The keeper punches it. Maya Yoshida had an injury hit
:46:10. > :46:38.season for Southampton this season. Keisuke Honda stands over it. 25
:46:39. > :47:06.minutes to go. The two injured players are back on
:47:07. > :47:30.the pitch. Orestis Karnezis will be looking for
:47:31. > :47:56.a club this summer, I would have thought.
:47:57. > :48:02.Giannis Maniatis has been pushed up the pressure rise Yasuhito Endo. --
:48:03. > :48:26.pressure rise. What a horrible mess! The cross from
:48:27. > :48:37.the full-back, he had done so well to get in there. It was a glorious
:48:38. > :48:43.past. Great run by Maya Yoshida. He has to hit the target from there!
:48:44. > :48:54.That is the nearest we have seen to a great opportunity. At least put it
:48:55. > :48:58.across the goal! He was the player who was in the international
:48:59. > :49:10.wilderness for four years. That would've been his first goal since
:49:11. > :49:15.November 2008. I just feel that if that had fallen to Keisuke Honda, it
:49:16. > :49:18.would have been in the back of the net. You have got to get him in the
:49:19. > :49:44.final third. Giorgos Karagounis Canon protest all
:49:45. > :49:46.day long, but he clipped him. Great change of direction by Shinji
:49:47. > :50:17.Kagawa. Greece had been forced to park the
:50:18. > :50:24.bus since the sending off. Their captain, Kostas Katsouranis went
:50:25. > :50:35.off. He was dismissed for his second yellow card.
:50:36. > :51:16.I think if Keisuke Honda went down there, he might have got a penalty.
:51:17. > :51:20.the final third. Every outfield player is now deep in the Greek
:51:21. > :51:27.have. Sokratis pushed it straight into the
:51:28. > :51:55.path of the but he pushed it wide! It was Maya
:51:56. > :52:07.Yoshida. He just can't manage to wrap his foot around it. It is
:52:08. > :52:16.starting to come for the Japanese, though. They just need to be
:52:17. > :52:17.patient. The Greeks will get tired having to defend that this, shifting
:52:18. > :53:02.from side Giorgos Karagounis was looking for a
:53:03. > :53:09.free kick there, Keisuke Honda left something on him. Down to ten men,
:53:10. > :53:14.this is the only way they could play in this humidity. It is not a hot
:53:15. > :53:48.night, but humid. 17 minutes to go. The referee will
:53:49. > :53:53.be adding on time. We could be here until Christmas. He
:53:54. > :53:58.be adding on time. We could be here Greeks are good at it. It is up to
:53:59. > :54:29.the Japanese to move the ball quicker.
:54:30. > :54:35.Good tackle by Kostas Manolas there. He has played well. But Japan keep
:54:36. > :55:06.up the pressure. Giorgos Karagounis is going to
:55:07. > :55:19.retire after this tournament, he says. Looking at that, keep it to
:55:20. > :55:29.hands on him. He is lucky to get away with that, Sokratis. Shinji
:55:30. > :55:33.Okazaki was going down already. Yes, he was, but he did make contact,
:55:34. > :56:19.Sokratis. Still 15 minutes to go. There was a
:56:20. > :56:58.push thereby Yasuyuki Konno. -- don't forget that Japan run out of
:56:59. > :57:04.steam against Colombia. They ran out of gas in the second half in the
:57:05. > :57:09.tournament here last summer. The Greeks are so good at wasting time!
:57:10. > :57:42.It is like they are playing in slow motion.
:57:43. > :57:49.Again, the goalkeeper, Orestis Karnezis, has thought of Japan. --
:57:50. > :58:16.stop Japan. Don't forget, later on today, you
:58:17. > :58:25.can see Italy against Costa Rica at four o'clock. It is so important for
:58:26. > :58:32.England's that Italy win. That could keep them in a third goal difference
:58:33. > :58:41.is enough. -- their goal difference.
:58:42. > :58:52.I think he will either for about five minutes! Here is the long-range
:58:53. > :58:57.shot. That is a great camera angle, you get a fantastic idea of how the
:58:58. > :59:12.ball is moving in this tournament. The keeper just taking no risks.
:59:13. > :59:25.Here comes Dimitris Salpingidis. manager has sent him away, he is not
:59:26. > :59:52.ready yet to make the change. Any opportunity that Giorgos
:59:53. > :00:01.Karagounis gets the head the deck, he takes it. He is a wily old fox.
:00:02. > :00:06.One point apiece keeps them both alive, but only just. There is
:00:07. > :00:15.Dimitris Salpingidis, still waiting to come on.
:00:16. > :00:27.Japan play Colombia in the final game. He has done well for his team
:00:28. > :00:31.there, Panagiotis Kone. This could be their moment. It is their third
:00:32. > :00:37.corner. Now they make the change. Panagiotis
:00:38. > :00:54.Kone will go off. Now they make the change. Panagiotis
:00:55. > :01:22.time. He can be a brilliant player one moment, infuriating the next.
:01:23. > :01:29.Giorgos Samaras was unlucky there. One of those teasing crosses. He
:01:30. > :01:51.just can't get on the end of it. JONATHAN PEARCE: Pulls it back, Endo
:01:52. > :01:56.arriving and Karagounis did just enough. Samaras has given it away.
:01:57. > :02:01.Honda. He's done a brilliant job on
:02:02. > :02:18.Karagounis since he went on. MARTIN KEOWN: A brave, professional
:02:19. > :02:34.performance. He is putting a shift in. They have
:02:35. > :02:36.squared up and Yoshida bumped to the ground by Maniatis. Maniatis is a
:02:37. > :02:56.little bit out of order there. Four in the middle to hit. He could
:02:57. > :03:00.only find a white shirt. Okazaki pulls off instead of going through.
:03:01. > :03:01.For me, it's a good cross, but there should be somebody getting on the
:03:02. > :03:05.end of it. Endo.
:03:06. > :03:26.player who turned down Everton Endo.
:03:27. > :04:00.2012 to stay in his beloved club in his play, but he's been emboldened
:04:01. > :04:02.after the opening moments. his play, but he's been emboldened
:04:03. > :04:36.a good ball from Holebas. In comes the cross and away by
:04:37. > :04:41.Sokratis. The two centre-backs have been towering. They love heading the
:04:42. > :04:44.ball. Good, old-fashioned defending. It is up to Japan to shift them,
:04:45. > :04:47.ball. Good, old-fashioned defending. though. You can't get
:04:48. > :04:51.ball. Good, old-fashioned defending. in those central areas.
:04:52. > :04:54.ball. Good, old-fashioned defending. played into feet now and advancing,
:04:55. > :04:54.ball. Good, old-fashioned defending. beyond Samaras. Uchida. There was
:04:55. > :05:05.cover again from Holebas. MARTIN KEOWN: A yellow card. It is
:05:06. > :08:52.like a tag-team. Just tries to cover inside.
:08:53. > :09:04.Handball. He takes his opponent out as well.
:09:05. > :09:16.Good measure. This is a better area, though. Endo looks like he fancies
:09:17. > :09:22.it. He has scored 13 for his country. Scored one in the warm-up
:09:23. > :09:25.international against Costa Rica. This will be so very vital. Honda is
:09:26. > :09:42.there with him. Just over a minute to go. There will
:09:43. > :09:47.be significant time added on. They have kept in front, you are right,
:09:48. > :09:51.Martin. Good spot. Here's Kagawa. Kone has been in top
:09:52. > :10:19.form for Greece. This is the free-kick here.
:10:20. > :10:30.Perfectly placed. It is a great effort and a good save.
:10:31. > :10:36.What was wrong with that, tell me? The referee was blowing very early
:10:37. > :10:44.for that one. I didn't see that as a free-kick. First round of group
:10:45. > :10:48.games had such thrills and spills, so very exciting. One or two of the
:10:49. > :10:52.second round group games have disappointed. Four minutes of
:10:53. > :10:54.stoppage-time signalled. It is unusual by the way for the World Cup
:10:55. > :11:26.to dip in the second phase of games. Fernando Santos has an engineering
:11:27. > :11:30.degree. He has certainly worked this one out today so far, tactically,
:11:31. > :11:41.down to ten men. Honda is allowed to run. Uchida is away on the right.
:11:42. > :11:46.Looking for Okazaki and away by Sokratis Papastathopoulos.
:11:47. > :11:56.It was a telegraphed pass, though, wasn't it, for Honda? Giving Osako
:11:57. > :12:12.no real chance to get on the end of it. More time wasted.
:12:13. > :12:24."Call me Zac," when they gave him the job.
:12:25. > :12:45.Just hammered away by Karagounis. Just hammered away by Karagounis.
:12:46. > :12:56.there - six of them on the edge or near the edge of the penalty area.
:12:57. > :13:06.That is hopeless! The goalkeeper just lying on the ball. Over two
:13:07. > :13:13.minutes of the four-minutes stoppage-time left. A couple of
:13:14. > :13:19.thousand short of capacity. Not too sure about that. Here's Endo.
:13:20. > :13:38.Nagatomo. Endo. Yamaguchi. Honda. Greece are
:13:39. > :13:46.holding a line of six on the edge of their penalty area. Free-kick.
:13:47. > :13:52.Greece are doing it really well, the way they are shifting across, nice
:13:53. > :13:53.and compact. They have done what was required, really, after going down
:13:54. > :14:25.to ten men. Another foul. really seems to have spoiled the
:14:26. > :14:36.game. We have not seen really seems to have spoiled the
:14:37. > :14:40.commit and tried to place the ball, but when they went down to ten men,
:14:41. > :14:53.they have just tried to protect what they have. It has run away from
:14:54. > :15:04.Japan. It is all over. Greece down Japan. It is all over. Greece down
:15:05. > :15:11.to ten men with the player sent off, simply shut up shop. You can hear
:15:12. > :15:23.the crowd booing. It is one point the piste. Neither team are out. The
:15:24. > :15:27.sending off of their captain led the defensive tactics
:15:28. > :15:33.sending off of their captain led the Japan. Very, very disappointing.
:15:34. > :15:37.sending off of their captain led the round, hasn't it? I'm
:15:38. > :15:43.no goals. If you are still with us, well done
:15:44. > :15:50.you! Beyond the call of duty, I would say. Colombia qualify from
:15:51. > :16:01.Group C. The Ivory Coast are the favourites to join them in the last
:16:02. > :16:05.16. The Japanese must win and hope the result and the other match goes
:16:06. > :16:14.their way. The same applies to Greece. Japan had 74% of the session
:16:15. > :16:19.in that game and only four shots on target. It says it all. Not enough
:16:20. > :16:24.quality going forward. A decent result for Greece in the
:16:25. > :16:29.circumstances. As soon as they went down to ten men, they were always
:16:30. > :16:35.going to shut up shop. They are not great anyway going forwards. No
:16:36. > :16:40.ambition. It was a very, very disappointing game, and that is
:16:41. > :16:47.being polite! Japan were awful, really. Against ten men, due should
:16:48. > :16:51.have a better go than that. They didn't show any will to get behind
:16:52. > :16:59.the Greek team. They should know and you see as of the ball. They were
:17:00. > :17:03.taking three, four, five touches. It was boring to watch. They didn't
:17:04. > :17:14.even look click there were going to win the game. Do you concur? I think
:17:15. > :17:21.they are jet-lagged! They don't seem fit. The Japanese players are very
:17:22. > :17:30.fast, full of running, and we didn't see that. There were a few
:17:31. > :17:34.opportunities in the game. This was the header from Theofanis Gekas.
:17:35. > :17:39.This was one of the few opportunities that they had. He
:17:40. > :17:48.climbs well, Theofanis Gekas. It on target and it is a decent save in
:17:49. > :17:54.the end. The goal-scoring by Greece in the World Cup is awful, isn't it?
:17:55. > :18:01.They now have a clean sheet, though. That is a positive! And, they are
:18:02. > :18:07.still in it. Shinji Kagawa made a difference. He is a fantastic little
:18:08. > :18:14.player. I was willing him to do well. He played a great ball over
:18:15. > :18:19.the full-back's head. This is him, getting into that number ten kind of
:18:20. > :18:28.role. He picks it up, sees the run, perfect execution. I scored a goal
:18:29. > :18:34.from that position against Newcastle, actually! He was quick to
:18:35. > :18:38.remind you of that! He was trying to put it on a plate for his team-mate.
:18:39. > :18:43.He did, really. He should score from there. Shinji Kagawa show that
:18:44. > :19:05.little bit more sharpness, little bit more guile. A bit of a chance
:19:06. > :19:13.for Maya Yoshida. He was unaware that there were people around him.
:19:14. > :19:19.Again, you have to score about. The defender got it cut up. As a
:19:20. > :19:26.defender, you just want to kick it out of their as soon as possible. He
:19:27. > :19:35.was trying to run out of there. That is a terrible mistake. Do you think
:19:36. > :19:58.Japan should have had a penalty, Clarence? Maybe. No, I wouldn't say
:19:59. > :20:05.so. He should have gone for the ball. If he had done that, he would
:20:06. > :20:11.have ended up at bash outside the box. That is why he didn't. We are
:20:12. > :20:17.scratching around is that things to look out! The early kick-off today
:20:18. > :20:37.saw Ivory Coast take on Colombia. This is where the danger comes from.
:20:38. > :20:55.That is a great ball. What a chance for Samaras! -- Samaras!
:20:56. > :21:09.That was a fabulous ball in. Brilliant vision!
:21:10. > :21:16.Off are waiting for the net after this.
:21:17. > :21:29.Great play again. That is a lovely ball to Gutierrez.
:21:30. > :21:50.They have a corner out of that. Into the roof of the net! James
:21:51. > :22:00.Rodriguez! The golden boy scores the first goal of the game! That is what
:22:01. > :22:02.you call a celebration! Of all the people, you wouldn't expect him to
:22:03. > :22:38.score with a header, would you? counterattacking team. Caught in
:22:39. > :22:39.possession by James Rodriguez. Juan Quintero scores his first
:22:40. > :22:45.international goal. If T3 macro has done well. William
:22:46. > :22:58.run! -- if T3 FairPlay to Gervinho for staying on
:22:59. > :23:05.his feet, FairPlay to Gervinho for staying on
:23:06. > :23:10.The complexion of FairPlay to Gervinho for staying on
:23:11. > :23:19.changed again. Play on, says the referee. That was not the worst
:23:20. > :23:30.idea. The goalkeeper had come a long way out. Maybe over the 90 minutes,
:23:31. > :23:35.the most dangerous team has won. Colombia are already through, of
:23:36. > :23:46.course. Ivory Coast would have to be favoured to join them?
:23:47. > :23:52.course. Ivory Coast would have to be who was crying during the anthems,
:23:53. > :23:57.he lost his father only two hours before kick-off. It is amazing he
:23:58. > :24:09.even played. We can now hear from the England captain, Steven Gerrard.
:24:10. > :24:16.Obviously, there is still a glimmer of hope. We are relying on other
:24:17. > :24:23.people. That is exactly the position we didn't want to be in. Of course,
:24:24. > :24:27.we will be professional and see what happens to see if we have a chance
:24:28. > :24:35.going into the last game. It was very disappointing. Defensively we
:24:36. > :24:40.need to improve. Over the two games, the performances have not been bad.
:24:41. > :24:44.There have been some good moments. It is very the stripping standing
:24:45. > :24:49.here. We talked so much about Luis Suarez in the lead up to this. He is
:24:50. > :24:56.world-class, deadly in front of goal, he is cute. He gets to chance
:24:57. > :25:02.is to be chemical and he takes them both. This is a player who hasn't
:25:03. > :25:06.played for five weeks. We were well aware of him and his ability. It was
:25:07. > :25:14.certainly his night to night. Roy Hodgson. Roy Hodgson says it wants
:25:15. > :25:16.to continue to lead the team. He is a fantastic manager and this isn't
:25:17. > :25:22.the time the questions. He gave us a good game
:25:23. > :25:26.plan and we haven't delivered. The players have to take responsibility.
:25:27. > :25:35.We have fantastic players in the dressing room. I'm sure all those
:25:36. > :25:40.supporters back home, the staff, they know there are positives in the
:25:41. > :25:43.dressing room. Everything is very raw at the moment. We need to see
:25:44. > :25:50.what happens in the results tomorrow. If Italy win, we have that
:25:51. > :26:01.small chance. I want to correct myself on that
:26:02. > :26:13.story, his father did not die just to hours before kick-off. Serey
:26:14. > :26:18.Die's ladder did not die just for kick-off, it was eight years before.
:26:19. > :26:25.Let's talk about England. There were numerous examples about England not
:26:26. > :26:29.getting set pieces right. We conceded from a set piece against
:26:30. > :26:36.Italy. This poll should never have got the Joe Hart. The position of
:26:37. > :26:44.Danny Welbeck was completely wrong. Joe Hart is trying to cheat and
:26:45. > :26:49.comfort the cross. That is another one. That is twice the ball has got
:26:50. > :26:58.through. That is Danny Welbeck's position. It shouldn't get through.
:26:59. > :27:03.This is another set piece. The Italian goal was similar. It was.
:27:04. > :27:08.People are not doing their jobs well and defensively onset pieces and it
:27:09. > :27:12.is costing us. We went into this World Cup worried about our defence.
:27:13. > :27:20.It offers he wasn't the strongest part of the team. Yes, that is true.
:27:21. > :27:24.But windy here that talked about, aged give you an extra lift to come
:27:25. > :27:29.out can prove people wrong. You look at that and think, well, how big
:27:30. > :27:35.question in my ability? That is your motivation. In the last two games we
:27:36. > :27:42.have given up too many opportunities and it has been disappointing. This
:27:43. > :27:52.is a bad clearance, maybe and it has been disappointing. This
:27:53. > :27:57.panic. That was a great striker. In an Everton shirt, you don't see that
:27:58. > :28:03.from Phil Jagielka. He is a consistent performer. This is just
:28:04. > :28:14.basic. Glen Johnson is there, says the danger. He really should have
:28:15. > :28:23.hit the target there. He has to get act quickly in the position, leave
:28:24. > :28:33.the outside space open. That is European, Italian defending and an
:28:34. > :28:36.England we aren't as good. Clarence, something you spotted on the
:28:37. > :28:38.celebration something you spotted on the
:28:39. > :28:46.goal. You think there was uniformity. Your best player finally
:28:47. > :28:54.gets his goal. As a team, every persons should be coming together.
:28:55. > :28:59.To celebrating in the middle, three come later. I'm not saying it is
:29:00. > :29:05.divided, the spirit together, let's get the other goal and when it. It
:29:06. > :29:16.looked more like relief than anything. Ahead of the Italy game
:29:17. > :29:20.tomorrow, Mario Balotelli has been talking to the media. What is your
:29:21. > :29:37.opinion about Costa Rica? We watch the videos about this team.
:29:38. > :29:44.They are a really good team. We need to respect them, and the way to do
:29:45. > :30:06.that... GARY LINEKER: A ticking off from the
:30:07. > :30:11.boss for speaking English! Clarence, you can translate any language? It
:30:12. > :30:14.is good to see Mario Balotelli like that. He seems relaxed and good.
:30:15. > :30:19.That will be great for the tournament. We have run out of time.
:30:20. > :30:23.Thank you for your company. That is it from us on another disappointing
:30:24. > :30:31.World Cup night for England. I tell you what - I'm supporting Italy from
:30:32. > :30:34.now on! Good night. We came here with such high hopes and we have not
:30:35. > :30:40.been able to deliver. It is hard to know what to say.
:30:41. > :30:48.COMMENTARY: Time to respond to the threat of an early flight home.
:30:49. > :30:57.COMMENTARY: Luis Suarez gives Uruguay the lead!
:30:58. > :31:09.COMMENTARY: Luis Suarez has thumped it in. One of the simplest goals you
:31:10. > :31:23.will ever see. It is very raw at the moment. It is
:31:24. > :31:24.a major sadness for
