Japan striker Ritsu Doan said he was particularly delighted with Wednesday's stunning victory over Germany at the World Cup after being forced to endure patronising comments before he headed to Qatar.

Eight members of the Japan squad play their club football in Germany and it was goals from Freiburg's Doan and VfL Bochum's Takuma Asano that gave them the shock come-from-behind victory at Khalifa International Stadium.

"I gave them a bitter smile while hearing this and I thought 'don't be silly'. As a man, I think the best way to shut them up is with such a result so I'm pleased it turned out that way." Doan said that while the players had enjoyed the victory, they had already turned their minds to their next Group E match against Costa Rica on Sunday.

"Yesterday my team mates and I were very happy. But starting today, we will put it behind us and prepare for the game against Costa Rica without being complacent."
