Japan headed for World Cup

Japan survived a late onslaught to become the first country to join host South Africa at next year's World Cup finals after a gritty 1-0 win away to Uzbekistan in an Asian qualifier June 6. Japan claimed one of the two automatic spots from its group after improving its record to 14 points with four wins and two draws from six games. Qatar, however, rained on Japan's qualification parade with a second-half penalty to earn a 1-1 draw in Yokohama on June 10. (The Japan Times)
