We showed excellent bal- ance tonight and brought joy to the fans.” Aguirre abandoned the tinkering that contributed to an alarming run of form in the Mexican’s first four matches in charge, naming 10 of Japan’s World Cup squad among his starting eleven in Toyota. And it took the Asian champions just nine minutes to open their account, defender Maya Yoshida stoop- ing to head into an empty net after a wicked corner from dead-ball specialist Yasuhito Endo. Endo, discard- ed by Aguirre since the former Espanyol manager took over from Italian Alberto Zaccheroni following the World Cup, marked his return with a superb goal as he extended his record number of Japan caps to 147.

This summer may not be any different for them, especially given the turmoil in terms of the now former head coach Vahid Halilhodzic being sacked one month ago.
