RWC: Japan v Russia (Pool A)
-
Not a bad game for a couple of tier 2ers
-
-
Japan in for their second try - debateable forward pass - to go in for oranges with the lead
Russia have done their level best fair play, but second half should be a romp for Japan.
Very cool to have a solitary gong to signal time up.
Japan 12 - 7 Russia
Half-time -

Enjoying it a lot.
Russians doing far better than I thought they would.
Yeah, I hope it stays close too. But the fitness is starting to look suspect

That Russian openside looks handy.
So does their left winger
-
@MiketheSnow the gong was a nice touch.
-
Leitch is very good for Japan but looks old and is starting to wilt
-
What a touch finder
-
Russians not surrendering fair play.
-
Shit
-
Bit unlucky there. In from the side was Japan.
-
Well done Japan, to repel that Russian attack. Russia won;t get many more gift-wrapped opportunities like that
-
Russia deservedly get penalty and points
Japan 20 - 10 Russia
61 mins gone -
Another foray into the Japanese 22 and an infringement will see a Japanese player go to the bin
Then it could be interesting
