He appropriately grabbed the openings, exceeding expectations all through as the Samurai Blue advanced from a gathering which additionally included the Netherlands, Denmark and Cameroon.
That denoted Japan's first movement to the knockout stage on remote soil. While it's unquestionably an accomplishment to be pleased with, it was their misfortune against Paraguay in the second round gathering that Kawashima still regrets. Truth be told, Kawashima and Co inspired against the South Americans by holding them goalless following 120 minutes, just to miss out 5-3 in the punishment shoot-out.
"We were so disillusioned by the outcome in 2010," the 35-year-old told FIFA.com in an elite meeting. "We verged on achieving the last eight. In any case, at last we missed the possibility. Thinking back, I feel that a few subtle elements had the effect and chose the outcome."

Four years on, these same gear-teeth stay in the accomplished center of the present squad making a beeline for their third FIFA World Cup.

So with a blend of experienced veterans and gifted youth players, I am sure that we are equipped for impacting the world forever in Russia."
Vintage goalkeeper
