Scoring sequence (Japan's score shown first): 8min-pen Japan, Goromaru-3-0,24min-try Japan, Penalty try; conv. Ayumu Goromaru-10-0, 34min-pen Japan, Goromaru-13-0, 40min-try Japan, Akihito Yamada; conv. Ayumu Goromaru-20-0, 48min-pen Japan, Ayumu Goromaru-23-0, 59min-pen Japan, Ayumu Goromaru-26-0, 64min-try Samoa, Paul Perez-26-5.
After having a good rest and preparing well enough, Japan won with a score of 26-5 to get the second win in a world cup for the first time in their 8th participation in the rugby world cup. Japan showed a stable performance which couldn't have been expected before, such as beating Samoa with powerful players and low tackles, inducing penalties by pushing in scrums, etc. Actually, according to the values stated by local book makers, Samoa had a big advantage, therefore Japan surprised the world again following the match against South Africa.
What was impressive in this match was the try by wing Akihito Yamada just before the first half ended. He avoided a tackle by Samoa's big player, wing Tuilagi, by turning his body and jumping in the right corner to score a tricky try. It was a try which was possible since it was by Yamada and he had studied strategies against the opponent for years. “We were able to show what we have prepared for the past week,” said Goromaru. Head coach Jones praised the players, saying “A team who have been able to win only one match in the Rugby World Cup won two matches in this cup to change Japanese rugby history. Today, especially, the forwards overwhelmed set pieces. It was amazing.”
