Having taken down Germany on their own home turf; the scrappy Japenese womens' soccer team is now facing the USA in the FIFA Womens World Cup final. In the first half the Americans come out hard, Japan though, knows they have what it takes to hold on and a chance to come through. Afterall their perserverance is born out of the March 11 earthquake and tsunami that devistated a large portion of their country. The team's coaches have even showed them footage in the locker room to remind the underdog team what they're fighting for, and after every game the players have held up a banner thanking the world for support of their country.
The score is still 0-0 at the start of the second half, but in my opinion win or lose, the Japanese ladies have proven themselves warriors and Wee World Wonders on and off the field.
