Full coverage of the clash between the Netherlands and Japan in Durban. Japan's coach Takeshi Okada has set his side the target of reaching the semi-finals but that seems an unrealistic target with Group E looking like a tricky one to negotiate. Also, history is not on their side as Japan have only managed to get out of the group stage once in four previous attempts. They will certainly have their hands full dealing with a Holland squad blessed with a glittering array of goalscoring talent at their disposal. Coach Bert van Marwijk has the luxury of selecting from the likes of Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, Robin van Persie and Wesley Sneijder to score the goals he hopes will help the Oranje lift the World Cup trophy for the first time.
