They managed a couple of training camps, and two friendly matches were scheduled against Italy and Holland to round off their build-up to the World Cup.Japan...will be taking part in their third World Cup. But this time round in the Asian championship they only managed third place, behind North Korea and the all-powerful Chinese.
