JAPAN'S World Cup qualifier against North Korea will go ahead as planned today after initial fears it would need to be put back a day due to an approaching typhoon.
The Japan Football Association said yesterday the game will proceed despite Typhoon Talus being forecast to come close to Japanese coastal areas tonight.
Both Japan and North Korea qualified for the 2010 World Cup and will be favorites to progress from Group C, which also includes Uzbekistan and Tajikistan.
Japan, the reigning Asian champion, is unbeaten since Italian coach Alberto Zaccheroni took over a year ago.
However, North Korea could provide a sterner test in Saitama, and Japan had called in all of its big-name European stars like Shinji Kagawa of Borussia Dortmund.
