In several videos, Japanese fans can be seen picking up rubbish from the ground, placing it in large blue bags and then approaching the rubbish bin area.
Japan gave away the second surprise of the World Cup: they beat Germany 2-1 with goals by Ritsu Doan Y Takuma Asano. Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan scored for the European team.
The reactions
The gesture of the Japanese fans was celebrated on social networks. Many personalities of that social network, as well as international sports media, have recognized this.
Japan wins again! After a shocking loss to Germany hours ago, Japanese fans stood back, handed out rubbish/garbage/garbage bags and helped clean up the stadium (one practice for every match they attended, even before #WorldCup2022) . This should be universal practice,” one person wrote.
Another user agreed: “Japan had a surprise win against Germany at the #FIFAWorldCup today, then their fans were left picking up trash in the stadium. How not to love this team?
“If nothing else, a victory for Japan would be truly commendable to all the fantastic Japanese fans who have stayed after matches at all the World Cups over the years to clean up the rubbish left in stadiums by others,” wrote journalist Veer Badani . .
Super Champions Prediction
While you might not believe it, this Tuesday is not an unprecedented feat: in Super Champions -or Captain Tsubasa-, the Asian squad had already beaten the Teutonic tank.
This Wednesday was the third meeting between the senior teams of Japan and Germany and the first official. Which, as we have already anticipated, not counting the times they “faced” in the famous anime from the turn of the century.
On May 5, 2002 episode 31 of Supercampeones was aired on television, in which you can see how Japan’s youth team beat Germany 3-2 in the international tournament of France.
The team led by Oliver Atom he’s winning twice. The moment in which the match goes 2-1 in favor of Japan and the scoreboard of the stadium indicates this to which the various clippings of the series that appeared on Twitter after the Japanese triumph in Qatar refer.
What happens next is that Germany draws the match and Japan wins it in the last minute with a goal from their referee.
In the end Oliver wins a duel against Schneider, the German, and scores the winning goal, literally breaking the rival goal net.
