VIDEO: Dortmund star Shinji Kagawa misses an open net for Japan
Although Borussia Dortmund midfielder Shinji Kagawa tallied a goal in Japan's comfortable 3-0 defeat of Cambodia, it's a video of him missing a sitter that is making the rounds post-match.
The win saw Japan move into third in its World Cup qualification group, with its three points at Saitama Stadium adding to the draw against Singapore at the same venue in June.

Some slick interplay from the hosts saw Shinji Okazaki of Leicester City release Yoshinori Muto of Mainz down the left. Muto's ball left the goalkeeper stranded and Kagawa with the goal begging from three yards out. Somehow, the ex-Manchester United flop tapped it right into the grateful goalkeepers hands.
Japan faces Afghanistan next Tuesday, with the match being played at the Azadi Stadium in Tehran.
