Japan’s Fumiaki Tanaka  is not a man we suspect that goes looking for fights very often.
He’s the smallest player at this year’s tournament standing at five-foot-five, but he has had a wonderful impact as his side have created rugby history by beating South Africa and overcoming Samoa as well today in Stadium MK in Miltown Keyes by 26-5.
The Panasonic Wild Knights Otago and Highlanders man was in the wars this afternoon however as he found himself being pinned to the ground by one of the Samoa man mountains Kahn Fotuali’i.

Craig Joubert took no more actions Samoa were already pinged for being offside but the bravery of the number nine just shows that Japan have feared absolutely no-one at this year’s World Cup.
