said Monday Japan midfielder Shinji Ono received the all-clear after an examination on his stomach.

Ono began to complain of abdominal pains before Saturday's friendly against Sweden, in which the Feyenoord player was substituted midway through the second half, and had tests at a hospital near Japan's training base in Shizuoka Prefecture.

Team doctors attributed the pains to exhaustion and Ono is scheduled to join his teammates on Wednesday, one day later than Philippe Troussier's squad resumes training in Iwata.
