Japan's coach Osim has stroke

TOKYO (AFP) Japan coach Ivica Osim, a Bosnian who led the former Yugoslavia to the 1990 World Cup quarter-finals, suffered a stroke Friday and is in serious condition, the Japan Football Association said.
"His situation is very unstable and at this stage it is not appropriate to give prospects for the long-run," association president Saburo Kawabuchi said. "I hope he survives."
Kawabuchi, who fought back tears as he announced the news, said Osim collapsed overnight in suburban Tokyo and was rushed to hospital, where he was in intensive care.
