Daisuke Matsui grabbed a brace + assist this weekend in a 5-0 rout for Grenoble over Auxerre. Watch the highlights of the match here. This was by far Matsui's best effort for Grenoble since his acquisition last year and we can only hope for more similar performances. While Matsui is surely guranteed a spot on the World Cup squad, with the plethora of talented midfield players, he will be fighting for a starting spot. A match like this will not go unnoticed by Takeshi Okada and will raise his stock. Matsui, as showcased by his second goal on the video, is more of a dribbler than his other Japanese compatriots, and I personally think that diversity in playing style benefits team Japan a great deal. Way to represent for Nihon, sir.
