Japan has indeed improved so much to hold Brazil to only a one goal lead. Outstanding! 👍🏻 ONLY lost by a one goal lead in extra time against Brazil and UNDEFEATED in ALL their matches leading up to yesterday. I say this Japan soccer team can hold their heads high! Brilliant team. 👍🏻
There is no shame in getting knocked out by Brazil. Pride of Asia!
No Endo, Minamino, Mitoma, or Kubo... and still nearly pulled this off. Imagine if Japan came into it healthy.
This is a good game, purely attacking football, Japan clearly one of the top team in this planet.
Japan played well!!! Dont be sad, very well played. Brazil is not an easy team and they did so so well. Respect to Japan. World class play and players. You got a new fan. Always respectful and with integrity!❤️❤️❤️
Japan lost several of their important first team players but still they managed to match brazil team.
Unc Casemiro's headers are unstoppable, a Man Utd legend.
So close for Japan!
Japan played really well. Salute 🫡
Wow that was really closer than I thought
Getting the first goal in and then losing must be heart breaking. Although they lost its fair to say Japan has arrived.
Congrats Brazil from Japan🎉
Japan was really team. See you next!
Heartbreaking 😢
The first highlights i'm watching this world cup & it's a banger. Kudos to Brazil for bringing it across the line and a wonderful courageous display from Japan to hold them out as much as they could
Proud of the Blue Samurai they were the best Asian team in this tournament🇰🇷🫡
Written in the stars the moment the groups are drawn. All the strong teams are parked at all 3/4 part of the knockout stage, early knockout is destined
well played Japan!. no need to be sad. its a very competitive world cup, even Germany knocked out today. all 32 teams in R32 are equal strength. Any team can win this world cup 2026 and no clear favourite. Be Proud of reaching R32.
Japan still did Asian football proud despite getting knocked out by Brazil. Well done! 🇯🇵🇯🇵 Hoping they will eventually win a knockout match one day!
The way Brazil played in the 1st half, a France or an Argentina would have killed the game. Brazil came alive in the 2nd half, but Japan played so well, if they had finished a few of the opportunities they got, I bet Brazil would have struggled
