Soccer: Japan beaten by Netherlands in World Cup warm-up 3-0
Japan suffered a second-half meltdown and crashed to a 3-0 defeat in a friendly away to the Netherlands on Saturday. Japan battled valiantly for long periods in what will be arguably their stiffest test in the run-up to next year's World Cup finals in South Africa, but Robin van Persie broke the deadlock on 69 minutes and Wesley Sneijder struck moments later before Klaas Jan Huntelaar sealed victory with a late third.
