World Cup Watch: The best free-kick takers
Posted Wednesday, April 28, 2010 by The Independent
Shunsuke Nakamura (Japan)
Nakamura came to the attention of most English football fans with his devastating displays against Manchester United in the Champions League in 2006. He scored dramatic free-kicks for Celtic in both the home and away ties during the group stages of that year. The Japanese midfielder has a habit of scoring dramatic goals - none more so than the injury-time free-kick against Kilmarnock in 2007 that landed Celtic their 41st League title. Now at Yokohama Marinos, Japan will be relying on Nakamura's speciality to progress from a tough looking World Cup group.
