Japan and Korea have already played 3 games together...Korea has won two of those games.  I think it would be silly for Japan to play Korea in the final... and win... and then be considered champions, because Korea-Japan would be split 2-2.

The better matchup would be U.S.-Korea, so I'm hoping for that, but with the depleted U.S. lineup, it probably won't happen.

I'll be glued to the game tonight, though... should be fun.
