Look for at least 3 goals to go in against the Uzbeks tonight.

Australia will beat Qatar, Japan will roll the Uzbeks.

JAPAN HAVE NOT SHOWN ANY MAGIC THIS EVENING. Uzbeks have 5 more good chances ahead to collect scores. they will take that chance. Japan is going to Africa. Uzbekistan also. FORZA UZBEKISTAN
