Germany v Japan

[Alberts__Lob]

There is literally no atmosphere in the stadium except a couple of people whistling

There is a big distance between the pitch and the spectators, but I think it sounds quite atmospheric, Albert.

Japan are going down.

Japan win 2-1,

I couldn't hear any atmosphere for the first 25 minutes. Ally McCoist said it was the worst he'd experienced at the WC so far....perhaps it got better during the match?

Just seen the final score

Fair enough, I heard chanting all the way through. Shocking result - very good for the tournament too!

Am I right in thinking that Germany now need a result against Spain, if not an actual win to go through? That is if Japan beat Costa Rica which going by the result in the other game in the group (7-0) is probably likely.
