Bunker reviews are going to kill this World Cup. Same as Curry, he was just standing there and the Japan player ran into him.

Japan 21-7 Chile
That conversion is the last action of the half.
The tone has changed completely for Chile now. They have defended manfully and played some great rugby, but ill-discipline could cost them here.
Japan, now 14 points ahead and potentially a man up too with a bunker review pending on Chile captain Martin Sigren, could really make them pay.
Amato Fakatava (40+1 mins)
It pays off.
From the line-out we get a maul, it circles around clockwise allowing second row Amato Fakatava to break free and score his second try of the day.
Rikiya Matsuda converts again, another very fine kick.
Amato Fakatava (40+1 mins)
It pays off.
Japan 14-7 Chile
Japan have a clear plan whenever they get a penalty - kick for the corner for a five-metre line-out.
They have one more such opportunity now before half-time.
Japan 14-7 Chile
Martin Sigren is sin-binned and it could be escalated further - it's under review.
There was no intent but it was dangerous play, he was too upright in the tackle.
Japan 14-7 Chile
A TMO intervention here, and Chile captain Martin Sigren could be in trouble.
He has collided heads with Kotaro Matsushima following a late tackle.
Japan 14-7 Chile
Who had this game down as the most entertaining of the opening weekend? It's certainly up there.
This first half has flown by.
Japan 14-7 Chile
Japan turn the ball over through great play by Michael Leitch, and they are almost away with a kick over the top.
Second row Amato Fakatava tries to chase it down but instead runs painfully into an ad hoarding. Thankfully he's OK.
Meanwhile for Chile, Matias Dittus is back after his 10-minute spell in the sin bin and it is 15 v 15 again.
Japan 14-7 Chile
Japan have had 73% territory so far, that second try was inevitable.
For Chile, who have committed themselves well, it is about ensuring they do not fall further behind before the break.
Jone Naikabula (30 mins)
It has been coming.
From the scrum, the ball is played to number 11 Jone Naikabula who has too much pace and power for the Chilean defence to keep him out.
Rikiya Matsuda is on target again, and the lead is seven points.
Japan 7-7 Chile
Japan are pressing very hard for a second try here.
A Chilean knock-on gives them a great chance just a few metres from the try line.
Japan 7-7 Chile
Confirmation from that review - Matias Dittus' yellow card has not been upgraded.
It was a poor late challenge on Jiwon Gu, but unlike Tom Curry yesterday it was to the legs rather than a head-to-head contact, so the Chilean number three will be back with us soon.
Japan 7-7 Chile
You can tell that 30 of the 33 players in the Chile squad play their club rugby for the same team.
They know exactly how each of their team mates will play and look absolutely in sync so far.
Japan 7-7 Chile
Following that sin-bin, Japan kick for touch and try to roll the maul over the line after the line-out.
But Chile rip the ball away! Yet more great defending by the underdogs.
Matias Dittus (Chile)
Boos from the crowd as replays of that tackle from Matias Dittus on Gu are shown on the screen.
Dittus gets a deserved yellow card, and it will be reviewed off field. Like Tom Curry yesterday, that could be upgraded to a red.
Japan 7-7 Chile
Kotaro Matsushima is a danger man on the wing, and Chile have clearly identified this. The Japan number 14 is being double-teamed every time he gets the ball.
Another Japan player, Jiwon Gu, is down in pain after getting his knee clattered by a late tackle.
Japan 7-7 Chile
Chile are even trying to run the ball out from their own five-metre line.
It's a risky move, and the debutants are eventually sensible and kick away.
Japan 7-7 Chile
Japan try to get the maul rolling over the line, but the ball is held up!
Great defence from Chile, who reach the drinks break all square.
