Blackburn Rovers forward Yuki Ohashi made his international debut for Japan in their World Cup qualifier against Indonesia in the early hours of Friday.
The 28-year-old appeared as a substitute for the final 10 minutes in Jakarta which Japan won 4-0 with Southampton's Yukinari Sugawara among the goalscorers.
Japan are top of their AFC World Cup qualifying group, five points clear of Australia, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain.
Ohashi, who has scored five goals for Blackburn since signing from Sanfrecce Hiroshima in July, is expected to be involved again when Japan face the bottom side China next Tuesday.
