90 (+1) mins: Eric van Meir heads goalwards for Belgium but Seigo Narazaki saves comfortably.
90 mins: The hearts of the Japanese fans inside the Saitama Stadium are in their mouths as Wesley Sonck is sent crashing down in the penalty area after colliding with Seigo Narazaki. The referee awards a corner kick, much to the home fans' relief.
88 mins: Belgium win a free-kick in a dangerous position on the left wing, but the delivery is poor and Japan clear.
85 mins: Junichi Inamoto hits the ball into the net after dazzling the static Belgian defence with some good footwork - but referee William Mattus disallows the goal for a foul. It is a dubious decision.

81 mins: A clumsy tackle by Eric van Meir on Atsushi Yanagisawa earns the Belgian a yellow card.
80 mins: Japan have another flurry of chances. First, Atsuchi Yanagisawa finds space after a poor defensive header and blasts in a shot which is about two feet too high. Moments later, Eric van Meir produces a fine tackle to stop Yanagisawa as he looks to break clear.
79 mins: Belgium try a long ball towards substitute Wesley Sonck, although it is just too strong.
74 mins: Japan's lead lasts just six minutes as Peter van der Heyden springs the host nation's offside trap and neatly lobs Seigo Narazaki for his first goal in international football.
Japan 2-2 Belgium
71 mins: Japan's Tsuneyasu Miyamoto - wearing a striking Lone Ranger-esque face mask - takes the field as a replacement for captain Ryuzo Morioka.
70 mins: The stunned Belgians are rocking and substitute Hiroaki Morishima breaks clear down the left, although the Belgians regroup in time to block his shot.
68 mins: The euphoria in the Saitam Stadium turns into utter delirium as Junichi Inamoto of Arsenal puts Japan into the lead.
Picking up the ball in midfield, Inamoto displays fine pace to power past Eric van Meir into the box and hammer the ball past Geert de Vlieger into the net.

Takayuki Suzuki is the scorer, running in behind Jacky Peeters to latch on to a long pass and prod the ball beyond Geert de Vlieger, sending the fans into wild celebrations.
Japan 1-1 Belgium

45 (+2) mins: The referee's whistle brings the half to an end.

44 mins: Ryuzo Morioka is hassled by Mark Wilmots and forced to pass back to his goalkeeper from the halfway line.
40 mins: Gert Verheyen's back header is on target, but easily claimed by goalkeeper Seigo Narazaki.
39 mins: Daisuke Ichikawa, on the right wing, latches on to a good pass, and jinks into the box - although he is unable to find a cross which does justice to the build up, and Belgium clear.
36 mins: Bart Goor is guilty of a glaring miss for Belgium. Gert Verheyen's cross from the left is only partially cleared, and the ball comes to Goor who blasts wildly off target from 10 yards.
35 mins: The passionate Japanes fans shriek as a Hidetoshi Nakata snapshot flies just over the Belgians goal. If Japan score, the fans will go bananas.

30 mins: Kazayuki Toda becomes the first Japanese player to be booked after a somewhat reckless challenge on Gert Verheyen.

26 mins: Bart Goor makes a mess of attempting to retain possession near the touchline and the crowd unleash a huge roar. The reverential, polite atmosphere which has characterised some of the previous games is certainly not in evidence here.
23 mins: Japan's Takayuki Suzuki just lacks a yard of pace as he attempts to break clear, and the Belgian defence snuffs out the danger.
22 mins: Belgium fashion their first clear-cut opportunity, Jacky Peeters crossing to Gert Verheyen whose header is not far wide with Japan keeper Seigo Narazaki struggling.
20 mins: Peter van der Heyden is the first player into the referee's notebook, as he is cautioned for cynically scything down the flying figure of Daisuke Ichikawa.
19 mins: An ambitious 35-yard drive from Kazuyuki Toda flies high over the bar. Not that the crowd care - there is a crackling atmosphere inside the Saitama stadium.
17 mins: Hidetoshi Nakata's neat skill and pass finds Takayuki Suzuki, and although the Japanese striker loses possession, the host nation have enjoyed the better of the game so far.
14 mins: Junichi Inamoto displays some neat skill to beat two Belgians in midfield, although the move breaks down with a disappointing final pass.
11 mins: Japan win their first corner as Takayuki Suzuki finds space inside the six-yard box. Hidetoshi Nakata's cross is good, but Geert de Vlieger takes the ball well.
10 mins: Some smart play down the right sends Arsenal's Junichi Inamoto into space, although his cross is over-hit.
