In Happier News: Japan defeats Spain in Soccer

                                             Yukio Otsu, after scoring the winning goal


In happier Olympic news for other Asian male athletes, and perhaps somewhat of cosmic justice (in re: the Spanish basketball team and the Beijing Olympics), Team Japan beat Team Spain in the preliminary rounds of pool play. Spain, a favored team, just lost their second game to Honduras. In both games, Team Spain was shut out. They have been eliminated from medal contention.

The Japanese were pretty impressive in this match and should have had at least two more goals. They were a joy to watch!

I didn't see the match, but I had heard as well that Team Japan had great scoring chances and failed to connect on them. If they had, it would've been a pretty huge victory to put up 4 goals on Team Spain while shutting them out.
