To fall into a group considered weaker compared to last World Cup, when needed debunking Denmark and Cameroon, from stage side of the Netherlands, Japan hoped to find a classification without traumas in this World. However, the defeat on his debut for the Ivory Coast by 2-1 on Saturday, just frustrating the expectations of coach Alberto Zaccheroni.

The team even went ahead, but ended up taking two goals in the second half and saw the elephants and Colombia, who beat Greece, open three-point advantage. The coach clings to the good record in the playoffs - it was the first team to guarantee a place at this World Cup - to get soften the bad start.

- What do we need to know now, because we have obtained excellent results in past games, so we know what to do.

For Zaccheroni, it is time to consider the points that can be corrected for duels against Greece, 19th, and Colombia, on the 24th.

- I'm used to do an analysis when the team does not render starting with myself. Start thinking about what I did, what could have done differently. I like to think of my own performance and from then evaluate the performance of the players. Let us now consider what to do in the next two games.
