The biggest sporting event in the world happens a week from now. Thirty-two of the best football teams will compete in Brazil for 2014 World Cup.
I will definitely watch the matches that will feature Japan. Japan's Samurai Blue is the first Asian team to qualify for World Cup Brazil. At the Asian qualifiers, Japan stood head and shoulders above its Asian opponents to qualify smoothly to Brazil.
Keisuke Honda, Shinji Kagawa and Shinji Okazaki will lead Samurai Blue's campaign. Bracketed with Ivory Coast, Greece and Colombia, Japan stands a good chance of entering the round of 16. In a World Cup tune-up, Japan beat 34th ranked Costa Rica to set hopes up high for a good showing in Brazil.
With Coach Alberto Zaccheroni still the head coach of Samurai Blue, Japan is very much a team to watch. With the tremendous support of its fans, Japan might just pull one of the biggest surprises in Brazil.
Samurai, the time has come to fight !
