    Zaza Mhin: Would England have won against this Japan team if they were 2-0 down? Perhaps coming 2nd in the group might be fortunate

    Japan coach Akira Nishino: "I am devastated. Yes we took the lead but we couldn't win. It might have been a very small difference but I felt there was nothing in it. Maybe it was my decisions as a coach or my tactics, and we couldn't keep up with Belgium, who upped their game."

    Colin B: Wonderful game. Japanese players must be very tough. I don't recall anyone rolling around in agony when one of the opposition has the audacity to challenge for the ball

    Gregory's goals: Lukaku is now the only person who can realistically stop Kane getting the golden boot and he's LEAVING the ball to set up a teammate? Bizarre. Sometimes personal glory should come first.

    Belgium 3-2 Japan

    Japan coach Akira Nishino: "My players can run if it is a long run or a number of sprints. Our players are strong but to exploit those sprints in the game is another matter. We need skills, tactics, how we are going to pass is more important."

    Bishnu: Japan bows out with their head held high. They were brilliant until the last minute. Hopefully this will reenergise Asian football. I am interested to know what Iniesta brings to J League.

    Amrul: Uruguay v France at 3pm on Friday? I feel as though I am coming down with something..

    What other number 9 in world football would have the presence of mind to leave that cross for Chadli rather than take it on himself? Lukaku take a bow son
