Oh, The Drama: The Ten-Man Japanese Late Show
Japan looked down and out, down 2-1 and a man halfway through the second half, the clear momentum shifting to the hosts. And then Qatar met Shinji Kagawa.
Well, they'd already met him since he technically nodded in Japan's first goal too, even if it was going in anyway.
One of Europe's brightest new stars, absolute terror of the Bundesliga, scored the first goal while Japan was down a man, then created the winner in the 90th minute while, sending Japan into the semifinal to face the winner of South Korea and Iran.
