(Reuters) - Japan's quest to reach a third consecutive women's World Cup final began with a dull goalless draw as Argentina claimed their first-ever point at the tournament on Monday. The result ensured Carlos Borrello's Argentina avoided defeat for the first time in a World Cup match, having lost each of their previous six games in the competition. I think we're able to reflect upon what Argentina is and what it means as a team," the forward said. Japan, who lifted the World Cup in 2011 by defeating the United States, will be disappointed with their sluggish display in the final third after recording just three attempts on target. Japan meet Scotland in their next match at Rennes on Friday, while Phil Neville's England take on Argentina in Le Havre on the same day.
