Co-defender Tsuneyasu Miyamoto is so hyperkinetic it's a wonder he hasn't broken more than his nose, which was injured during a practice game and now requires the protection of a leather mask. On offense, Shinji Ono supplies the fancy footwork and sets up the pair of fair-haired attackers?Inamoto and the slightly disheveled beach bum of the two, Takayuki Suzuki...
