BEIJING, Aug 21 (Reuters) - Substitute Fatmire Bajramaj scored twice to give world champions Germany a 2-0 win over Japan in the women's soccer bronze medal match on Thursday.

Bajramaj put Germany ahead in the 69th minute, 10 minutes after coming on, when she snapped up a rebound to score from a narrow angle after Miho Fukumoto saved a Kerstin Garefrekes header.

Three minutes from time, she cut inside her marker and drilled home Germany's second.
