I wasn't able to watch the whole match but I was listening to it in the background while doing other things. I got the impression that this was the first time in a while that Japan didn't have to call on heroics from Kawaguchi, which means the team as a whole was performing more effectively?

Matsu: I have a few questions for you after visiting your site (which gets better and better BTW):

I read your previews of the JLeague second stage, but what I wanted to know is who the Marinos second string GK is and what he's capable of in case Kawaguchi actually does go abroad this summer. I guess the Marinos haven't had to call on a reserve GK for ages. Do you know who they have and what they're like? I also saw that Chila is said to be considering a move to Japan - is there any prospect he could be thinking Yokohama? (incidentally - do you have oddds on the Marinos for the Nabisco Cup: the SF shouldn't be a problem - maybe the season needn't be a total write-off)

Secondly, I was trying to find a list of goalscorers for the National team since Troussier took over, but I couldn't find that on your site. Do you have the statistics for it somewhere?
I think it would make interesting reading - my guess is there would be a surprising number of people that have scored 2-4 goals but very few with much more. Then again many of the goals scored would be against poor opposition in Asian matches, so I wanted to see who has done well against better opposition. Can you dig up a list of who scored what against who from somewhere?

Also, the commentators today were saying something on the lines that Troussier is picking a core squad of thirty in advance of the WC and that it is 90% confirmed: logically that means there are only three places undecided. Have you seen a list of who the 27 confirmed (or the 3 unconfirmed) might be?
