Mitoma

Shiogai

3：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 03:59:27.40 ID： ID:s3ay1kEz0

I abide in sub specie aeternitatis 👼

Tanaka-san

4：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 03:59:42.50 ID： ID:TXp2ErxZ0

Daiki Hashioka

6：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:00:57.02 ID： ID:Y8cqi3dR0

Suzuki, who came on later

8：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:02:01.17 ID： ID:5wmxeHuY0

Apparently, nirvana is called Nirvāṇa 💀

None of the subs really fit in, did they.

9：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:02:15.56 ID： ID:Yq73cmwG0

The ref made a lot of simple mistakes regardless of who it favored.
Calling touches that didn’t happen, or calling goal kicks when it was a touch, etc.

10：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:03:10.42 ID： ID:C9lHNp4b0

That guy who gave a ‘nice pass’ instead of clearing it.

11：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:03:19.42 ID： ID:2tGbwamw0

The defense kept making shitty mistakes and passing the ball to the opponent.
We can’t really blame them since they didn’t concede, but still.

12：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:03:40.42 ID： ID:nK6f0O5C0

Long ago, they say the Taijitu was created by a person named Fuxi… cute, isn’t it?

The subs were useless.

14：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:04:06.44 ID： ID:jHLHqsTV0

Nagatomo.
He says unnecessary things.

15：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:04:19.09 ID： ID:8KW8yLYf0

It’s Tanaka, who got the ball stolen there, right?

16：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:04:41.21 ID： ID:3vuqy9jR0

It’s that guy Suzuki.

17：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:04:43.81 ID： ID:4lp04TcWa

It’s Ao Tanaka, yeah.

18：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:04:51.40 ID： ID:ETp7VFWs0

It’s definitely Suzuki, no matter how you look at it.

19：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:04:57.49 ID： ID:GHJfk+l70

Well, it’s Tanaka.
Putting on Machino didn’t do anything either.

20：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:05:02.88 ID： ID:ZqFEiiCI0

Wow, typical.

21：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:05:03.15 ID： ID:X4T10RV+0

Sugawara and Tanaka.

22：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:05:13.55 ID： ID:hLAp+uZF0

Sugawara and Junnosuke Suzuki were inferior in terms of ability.

23：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:05:13.76 ID： ID:tuGPmhU70

The combinations.

24：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:05:16.01 ID： ID:/ka/9+8s0

The defense should apologize to Zion and suck his d*ck.

25：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:05:18.59 ID： ID:71c49N4J0

The defense collapsed, Zion was just making miraculous saves.

38：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:07:37.69 ID： ID:XKK+3MXX0

>>25
The starting lineup didn’t collapse though.
Although the opponent’s #7 was good on the left side in the second half.

26：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:05:21.64 ID： ID:iKrc5Dmx0

No, Moriyasu is the culprit for taking Kamada off and putting Tanaka in.
You shouldn’t put weak players like Tanaka in during crunch time.

27：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:05:38.66 ID： ID:qmcFcFXq0

Zion is doing really well.

28：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:05:41.80 ID： ID:7hh2zNF70

Tanaka-san kept making mistakes.

29：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:06:00.87 ID： ID:cEmamB4s0

Suzuki, Tanaka.

30：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:06:05.01 ID： ID:QrmJ+IT+0

“Our football”.

31：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:06:07.45 ID： ID:WbN0QgLa0

We can’t keep possession without Mitoma and Kubo.
The game lasted about 100 minutes, but Brazil had the ball for 85 of them.

35：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:07:06.29 ID： ID:/ka/9+8s0

>>31
Brazil had the ball for like 95% of the time, didn’t they.
That’s unacceptable.

32：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:06:07.75 ID： ID:wrKwTTko0

Tanaka kept losing the ball, so it was obviously coming.

33：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:06:57.45 ID： ID:Mhg1BY700

Yeah, it’s Tanaka.
His ball-winning ability is high, but he was useless after that.

34：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:07:03.00 ID： ID:JbxkXsGz0

That guy called Kubo, crying despite doing nothing.

36：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:07:07.21 ID： ID:o63SrLLZ0

It’s harsh, but the player is Tanaka. If he’s going to lose it immediately after winning it, I’d rather he not win it at all.
Though the difference in managers and the ref’s bias were huge too.

37：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:07:28.75 ID： ID:9I2JLfG60

Tanaka is just too terrible.

39：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:07:42.19 ID： ID:5wmxeHuY0

It makes no sense why Tanaka didn’t clear it in that dangerous zone at that time.
Too much of a culprit.

43：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:08:29.08 ID： ID:yoIbAdQG0

A monkey that made cocky comments even though everyone says you lose if you do.

44：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:08:29.75 ID： ID:pyA6eAwq0

It’s really Tanaka, but I feel like the team’s policy was to keep possession, so an amateur like me doesn’t know.

45：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:08:30.25 ID： ID:r32gL/2p0

The manager went defensive despite being tied.

46：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:08:32.27 ID： ID:GHJfk+l70

And Sugawara left space for Martinelli open.
Well, that’s the difference in level of the bench players.

47：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:08:37.27 ID： ID:R3dMHJuI0

Maeda was the one who was most effective.
The opposing manager has an eye for talent.

48：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:08:48.45 ID： ID:N8YjA0t/0

It’s Moriyasu.

Too early to take off Doan and Nakamura.
Machino and Suzuki really make no sense.
Ogawa and Daizen should have been subbed off before conceding too.

No plan at all.
The players are really trying their best, but the manager is definitely the biggest hole.
Same as the last World Cup.

49：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:08:59.50 ID： ID:iKrc5Dmx0

It’s hindsight, but even if Doan and Nakamura were tired, it would have been better to keep them on.
Sugawara and Junnosuke Suzuki simply weren’t at the level to compete here.

214：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:47:32.78 ID： ID:s7BSBMqw0

>>49
This.
Tired Doan and Nakamura were better.

52：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:09:08.18 ID： ID:6kLbNlkq0

The bench is hopelessly crappy.

53：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:09:24.92 ID： ID:3vuqy9jR0

Well, Ao Tanaka, who was getting dominated from start to finish, was bad.

54：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:09:26.96 ID： ID:o72VFZnF0

Someone didn’t clear the ball at the end, right?

55：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:09:29.17 ID： ID:AW4W1wg80

What about Machida?

58：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:09:53.80 ID： ID:5wmxeHuY0

>>55
Zelvia?

56：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:09:31.98 ID： ID:NdM8gKEn0

Tanaka (Yoshida).

57：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:09:47.96 ID： ID:/gvdYTl/0

Tanaka.

59：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:10:36.27 ID： ID:nIK62Q0b0

It’s not that any one person is bad, but the lack of attacking ideas from the subs was fatal.
If you lose three shadows, you have no options to attack against a superior opponent, and it’s checkmate.

60：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:10:38.68 ID： ID:zFhsomm40

Vinicius doesn’t defend, so it’s tough.
Even Mourinho probably couldn’t fix his mindset.

81：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:13:36.96 ID： ID:nIK62Q0b0

>>60
He actually recovered immediately when he lost it.
Other than that, he was just walking around slowly.

84：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:14:20.80 ID： ID:oCkTshHz0

>>81
Ao was the one who got stolen from, right?

61：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:10:40.52 ID： ID:MXVkvcf1d

Tanaka was the one who messed up, but the other subs were also shabby, so the culprit is the lack of depth.

62：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:11:12.31 ID： ID:qyIMi3Q70

And there’s no good subs.

63：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:11:17.06 ID： ID:AdADOHlt0

We couldn’t attack at all, and the only goal was Kaito Sano’s solo play.
Completely defeated in terms of overall strength.

65：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:11:49.13 ID： ID:o63SrLLZ0

Jun Suzuki isn’t a WB player in the first place, so there’s nothing that can be done.
At least he could handle crosses.

78：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:13:08.13 ID： ID:oCkTshHz0

>>65
We didn’t need the Nagatomo spot after all, did we.

66：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:11:58.69 ID： ID:fYFdW5v/0

If Tanaka is the culprit, the one who put him in is the most at fault.

67：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:12:13.34 ID： ID:mEYlJi7hr

Is Moriyasu still going to continue?
Won’t he do the same thing and lose in 4 years?

75：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:13:01.54 ID： ID:N8YjA0t/0

>>67
I really want him to quit.
I want to see the current Japan national team with a different manager.

68：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:12:16.62 ID： ID:r32gL/2p0

I wish they had been a bit more creative with the starting lineup and substitutions.

I still don’t understand why they went defensive when they were tied.

69：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:12:28.17 ID： ID:fZ58DOKT0

The fastest ratings.
Tanaka: 0
Sano, Zion: 7
Others: 5

70：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:12:45.94 ID： ID:5wmxeHuY0

>>69
Give Maeda a 6.

71：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:12:48.50 ID： ID:GqM4j+/a0

Tanaka, Machino, Sugawara.

72：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:12:49.12 ID： ID:CzKB0EZB0

Did Machida do anything?

105：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:17:25.16 ID： ID:TFi6nkdM0

>>72
Receives the ball free and hits it against the opponent.
Gets physically hit, stumbles, and gets counter-attacked.
Counter-attack from a shitty cross.
Ueda gets crushed, then just walks around.
Hits the ball against the opponent, then a counter-attack.

73：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:12:51.74 ID： ID:WbN0QgLa0

I mean, it’s seriously impossible to win if we get possession dominated like this.
The defense is too exhausted because Brazil always gets the rebounds even if we clear it.
There’s no way we could win, seriously.

74：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:13:01.25 ID： ID:v+deBNX40

The chance of scoring dropped to 0 after Kamada left.

76：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:13:02.57 ID： ID:ajY10B1t0

Zion really made like 3 god-like saves.

77：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:13:04.07 ID： ID:s3ay1kEz0

I thought it was Tanaka at first, but it’s Moriyasu.
He should have swallowed his pride and called Morita if Endo wasn’t available.

79：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:13:29.07 ID： ID:CweYsBbr0

It’s the manager’s half-assed substitutions.

80：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:13:30.47 ID： ID:MIJ50OHI0

Moripo reduced the number of midfielders, so it was tough once Kamada and Sano got yellow cards.
Kubo and Mitoma weren’t there to hold the ball up front, and Nakamura was dead defensively too.

82：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:13:50.45 ID： ID:Yq73cmwG0

Even if Tanaka’s mistake is hindsight, putting Junnosuke in as a WB is just incompetent.

83：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:13:59.08 ID： ID:AeCNQHO00

The substitutions were too horrible.
Well, he probably didn’t have any good options though.

85：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:14:32.79 ID： ID:v+deBNX40

It should have been Morita.

91：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:15:32.34 ID： ID:Wq6C7ZkH0

>>85
It would have been much easier if Endo or Morita were there.

86：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:14:35.05 ID： ID:MXlyoW5I0

I’m just a casual fan who only knows Mitoma, but why do they keep clearing it like that?
You almost never see such stupid clearing in the Premier League, usually they connect it to an attack if they get it, I think.

92：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:15:36.29 ID： ID:v+deBNX40

>>86
Japs can’t counter-attack.
Ueda was doing well, but because Machino was slacking off, losing the ball on his hold-up play was just too shitty.

106：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:17:41.60 ID： ID:MIJ50OHI0

>>86
Depends on the manager.
It’s good if you can connect the ball carefully from the back, but clearing to end the play is also important if you’re going to make mistakes trying to do that.
The old Barca connected even in dangerous situations, but it’s impossible unless you have immense technical superiority.

87：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:14:41.60 ID： ID:r32gL/2p0

I’m strongly against Manager Moriyasu continuing.
I can already see the future where he messes up again from the starting lineup selection.

88：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:15:08.70 ID： ID:cjrLufWw0

Moriyasu.

89：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:15:19.50 ID： ID:z0Et03Ww0

Tanaka isn’t just a culprit. He’s totally a Brazilian spy.

90：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:15:28.13 ID： ID:B69LUy6G0

The guy who made the mystery substitution to take off Doan and Nakamura.

93：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:15:36.99 ID： ID:k7AwQPDf0

Brazil is saying it was boring.

94：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:15:38.15 ID： ID:4x5kgHk60

Nakamura was too quiet.

95：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:15:49.43 ID： ID:N/CXgeQ20

Typical, you lose if you say unnecessary things.

96：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:15:49.65 ID： ID:S/V+god50

Is this the best ever? It was 70% left to Zion.

97：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:15:54.87 ID： ID:6LEVSBPw0

The only option to replace the two midfielders who got yellow cards was Ao Tanaka.
Morita was needed after all.

135：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:24:31.57 ID： ID:AEkLNv/m0

>>97
It happened just as everyone was worried about.

98：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:16:01.02 ID： ID:GHJfk+l70

Zion and Sano -> Stepping up.
Nakamura -> Stepping up to a Big 4 first division.
Maeda -> Stepping up to a Big 4 first division promoted team.

Well, that’s about it.

99：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:16:15.22 ID： ID:r32gL/2p0

It was also bad to take off Junya Ito.

223：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:50:20.89 ID： ID:s7BSBMqw0

>>99
Using Ito in the first half for defense was the problem in the first place.
If we had more depth, he could be used as a trump card from the second half.

100：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:16:46.67 ID： ID:bEyVcE2N0

The best ever (goalkeeper).

101：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:16:48.12 ID： ID:cjrLufWw0

So weak.

103：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:17:05.56 ID： ID:yoByJf/U0

We only maintained the tie thanks to Zion and Tomiyasu working hard, but it was just a matter of time.
Since we were pushed back this much, it would have been better to have Ito Junya on the bench, Doan as a shadow, and Tomiyasu as a WB.

104：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:17:12.00 ID： ID:hcxPmPL10

That’s because Nagatomo said embarrassing things like “We’ll beat Brazil, just watch” even though he wasn’t playing.

107：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:17:58.65 ID： ID:JNpQexj70

If it wasn’t Zion, we would’ve been beaten 1-5.

108：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:18:05.61 ID： ID:oalFlMx10

Today’s subs were horrible.
None of them fit in.

109：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:18:25.55 ID： ID:GHJfk+l70

And Ueda might also be able to step up to the Big 4.

110：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:18:28.78 ID： ID:dCnjTiSR0

Zion could have stopped it.

111：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:18:32.89 ID： ID:pyA6eAwq0

Looking closely, isn’t this hard for Tanaka?
I’m starting to feel it can’t be helped.

112：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:18:46.68 ID： ID:lsoGCwe70

Even if Tanaka didn’t make a mistake, we would have lost anyway.
The culprit is Machino.

113：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:19:14.79 ID： ID:e7ZOpZ6M0

We were just lacking players after all.

116：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:20:09.57 ID： ID:Yq73cmwG0

From Machino’s perspective, he must be like, what am I supposed to do here.
And why did he call so many CFs for the center but so few wingers?
Seriously, what was Moriyasu thinking calling so many CFs?

117：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:20:09.66 ID： ID:cF4lphnn0

Simply lacking players.
The bench is shabby.

118：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:20:11.34 ID： ID:8wuHW5Fg0

Why didn’t Shiogai play?
Chicken.

120：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:20:19.98 ID： ID:IvRgFrU30

Moriyasu.

141：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:26:54.24 ID： ID:22bJIWpo0

>>120
I think it’s wonderful in terms of team building, but the substitutions this time are seriously indefensible.
The intent for both WBs is understandable, and Tanaka is hindsight, but Machino can’t be defended if he gets criticized.

121：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:21:54.46 ID： ID:b+FJkQFo0

Kubo should retire from the national team.
The same thing happened last time; he’s not there when it counts, and you can’t count on him.

122：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:22:40.82 ID： ID:lv2rp2W00

Shiogai probably wasn’t used because he said something unnecessary.
If you put him out there, it’s obvious the opposing players and supporters would get hyped up and energized.

126：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:23:00.84 ID： ID:zKuaoM5k0

The second goal was Tanaka and Sugawara.

127：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:23:06.43 ID： ID:ofyPCL0G0

The front line was completely finished once Daizen left.

128：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:23:12.72 ID： ID:WPeSFcgK0

It should have been Goto instead of someone like Shiogai, normally.

129：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:23:23.88 ID： ID:adHZmasi0

Almost everyone.
Too many lost balls.

130：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:23:57.71 ID： ID:4lp04TcWa

If we had at least one player with ball-holding ability in midfield.

139：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:25:36.87 ID： ID:JI2WseQW0

>>130
It was the manager who didn’t call Joel Chima Fujita.
He has top-level dribbling stats while playing midfield and shadow in Germany.

131：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:23:59.45 ID： ID:fUSzAZ8M0

Shiogai is a culprit.

132：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:24:17.05 ID： ID:RwJS6CT80

Ultimately, I think the cause is that players who are tough, players who aren’t, players who want to attack, and players who want to focus on defense all got mixed up on the pitch.
Maybe it was a management failure where they couldn’t communicate properly.
The inconsistency on the pitch was noticeable.

133： Security guard[Lv.2][Sprout] ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:24:21.33 ID： ID:Ia69YpHE0

All in all, they did pretty well considering so many regulars were missing.
It’s a tournament I wanted to see with all the regulars present.
They keep bringing on bench players you can’t have expectations for, that’s what it is.
The expectations were higher for the previous World Cup.

134：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:24:28.03 ID： ID:LWDyW3rk0

It’s tough that we had to use Ito and Maeda as starters.
We wanted to use them to tear the opponent apart as subs.

136：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:24:36.07 ID： ID:aIP3tiYf0

Brazil was moving the ball properly, but our passing wasn’t functioning at all, so it’s good we lost.
Better than winning by fluke and getting cocky.

137：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:24:48.05 ID： ID:N4zgtC4m0

But ultimately, I can’t think it was close.

145：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:27:41.47 ID： ID:LWDyW3rk0

>>137
Yeah, we were just being attacked in the second half and there was absolutely no sign we could score.
The score looks like a respectable fight, but the difference in power was clear.

140：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:26:07.76 ID： ID:FqVHQaie0

It was a game like, in baseball, where we somehow managed to lose 1-2 while escaping bases-loaded situations every time.

192：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:40:00.52 ID： ID:3upbr6G90

>>140
The toughest kind.

143：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:27:16.94 ID： ID:ruGB4SyW0

Even if we kept possession, the ball wouldn’t connect anyway, so a safety clear would have been fine.
But we had to attack, otherwise we wouldn’t score, so it’s difficult.

144：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:27:32.79 ID： ID:ESSj3tMA0

Endo and Kubo don’t affect the big picture, but I wanted Mitoma to be there.

156：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:30:05.11 ID： ID:22bJIWpo0

>>144
It would have been totally different if we could use Mitoma -> Nakamura or Maeda or Suzuki.

147：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:28:08.54 ID： ID:m/3IEi/z0

The substitute players were all garbage lol.

148：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:28:48.66 ID： ID:zy9FY2jp0

If Japan had Haaland, Xhaka, Pedri, Van Hecke, and Laporte, we would have beaten today’s Brazil.
Japan is growing.

171：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:36:02.60 ID： ID:brzWuzTM0

>>148
That’s no longer Japan.

149：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:28:51.84 ID： ID:RwJS6CT80

The symbol of distortion was the Machino substitution.
It’s not that Machino is bad.
He can be a starting point for power play, fall back as a second striker, and move like a center-half, but he’s a jack-of-all-trades and master-of-none.
They should have clearly put in a defensive player, or a player like Suzuki who can counter-attack alone.

150：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:29:12.15 ID： ID:gLN1IxCD0

Are they stupid for letting them pop crosses so freely?

155：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:30:04.59 ID： ID:adHZmasi0

>>150
Seriously this.

160：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:31:48.39 ID： ID:RwJS6CT80

>>150
Attaching a player to the center-back Magalhaes is not realistic in terms of balance or stamina.
If Magalhaes is crossing, it means there are enough people to respond to the cross, so they should have cleared it.

151：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:29:18.21 ID： ID:7CKhFyg20

Did everyone have eggs?

152：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:29:29.23 ID： ID:Zyt0XgLr0

If Japan had Messi, would it have been a draw?

246：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 05:05:15.42 ID： ID:izzf040I0

>>152
We’d easily win.
He’s just special.

153：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:30:02.88 ID： ID:0uyIPcKe0

The direct culprit is Tanaka.
The subs Sugawara, Suzuki, and Machino weren’t at the national team level.

154：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:30:04.46 ID： ID:4lJaw/nyM

I wasn’t watching the match specifically, I was only looking at the real-time stats on Sportnavi, but with these stats, it wouldn’t be strange for Brazil to have scored.
And then Brazil did score.

Even with stats that show you’re being outplayed like this, if you had specialists for set-pieces, penalties, and free-kicks, Japan might still have had a chance to win.

157：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:30:34.89 ID： ID:3vuqy9jR0

Well, it’s really 1-4, so 2 goals is lucky.

158：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:30:59.81 ID： ID:adHZmasi0

It’s partly Mitoma’s fault.

159：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:31:45.52 ID： ID:KB68AkHS0

People who aren’t here due to injury when it matters don’t count. Learn from Daizen.

161：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:31:51.55 ID： ID:yoByJf/U0

Defense tried hard, but they couldn’t perform to their full ability overall.
Kamada was completely erased, so it was checkmate early on.

162：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:32:20.35 ID： ID:22bJIWpo0

The most surprising thing throughout the tournament was the quality of Ueda.
He’s seriously world-class.

168：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:35:28.60 ID： ID:sIpkW/iZ0

>>162
Like where? lol

164：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:33:39.49 ID： ID:FVoBOPrP0

>>162
You can’t call someone world-class who is invisible against a superior opponent.

194：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:40:16.39 ID： ID:22bJIWpo0

>>164
Are you serious?
Ueda was doing the job required of him, and it would have been better if those around him could follow up more, but they couldn’t because they were pushed back.
Machino might have been expected to do that, but it wasn’t Machino.

163：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:33:06.91 ID： ID:8anEFaKU0

Assuming the injured are the biggest scum, everything else except Zion is low level as a player.

165：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:34:39.85 ID： ID:xib7txJX0

The worst ones are those who aren’t playing because of injuries.

166：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:35:07.04 ID： ID:y2le9rNdr

Everyone who isn’t here due to injury is a culprit.
Get back to fitness with spirit, you idiots.

167：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:35:18.01 ID： ID:Dcd20LWD0

Endo is just a closer when we’re in the lead, and Minamino is a player who basically disappears but occasionally scores.
So it really hurts that Mitoma wasn’t there.

169：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:35:39.42 ID： ID:Sip+381P0

The selection was crazy from the start.
Calling Nagatomo instead of Morita.

170：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:36:01.97 ID： ID:yRHfs3rI0

Well, first of all, please fire Moriyasu.
What was that crappy second half?

172：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:36:21.83 ID： ID:XBjjjYnJ0

Play-by-play: “Ao Tanaka’s defense!”
Commentator: “Eh?”

>>172
Does Tanaka get an assist for this?

183：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:38:07.61 ID： ID:brzWuzTM0

>>172
I thought he was going to clear it, but he was holding it.

188：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:39:03.02 ID： ID:ajY10B1t0

>>172
No matter how many times I watch it, he leaves him too open.
No wonder they scored.

196：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:40:46.12 ID： ID:Ra3hzpE80

>>188
Japan national team: “They should clear it…”
Brazil national team: “Clearing, huh…”
Tanaka: “Hmm, let’s pass to the Brazil player!”

189：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:39:41.76 ID： ID:Mhg1BY700

>>172
Tanaka, who had it stolen, is bad, but letting him be free in front of the goal is even worse.

207：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:45:00.00 ID： ID:z0Et03Ww0

>>172
Tanaka is a spy, lol.
There’s no way to beat a superior opponent 10 vs 12.

218：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:49:14.15 ID： ID:II3OhvXv0

>>172
Why are those 3 people in front of the goal just watching the ball?

225：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:51:28.53 ID： ID:ajY10B1t0

>>172
If one of the two people flanking the player who eventually scored wasn’t watching the ball, it might have been different.
These two are also culprit candidates.

226：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:52:26.75 ID： ID:s7BSBMqw0

>>172
Only ball watchers.

228：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:53:59.05 ID： ID:HZ/rw4IdM

>>172
Do you Japs even know the meaning of teamwork if no one follows up on mistakes?

229：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:54:08.50 ID： ID:1+XcNtYY0

>>172
Was that Tanaka who had it stolen?
No guard.

173：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 04:36:30.30 ID： ID:3vuqy9jR0

For now, Zion’s manager is getting lots of job offers.

241：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 05:03:29.16 ID： ID:6P43Dak80

Morita.

245：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 05:04:20.82 ID： ID:/jeS1fnf0

Even our only pride, fair play, was full of vicious fouls and we got a lot of cards.

248：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 05:06:43.48 ID： ID:ajY10B1t0

Someone provided commentary.
Sugawara couldn’t come further inside because he was worried about Vinicius.
Machino simply wasn’t fast enough.

250：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 05:08:55.98 ID： ID:cr/F7FDT0

Are we too weak against crosses?
Did they even practice properly?

251：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 05:09:57.14 ID： ID:Gu1JWQiE0

Well, we found the challenge that Japan’s strengths crumble when we meet really strong teams.
They did well.

252：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 05:10:20.28 ID： ID:d5Mxhr5v0

Keisuke Honda says, “I can’t blame Tanaka, who couldn’t stand up.”
Even after losing the ball and conceding, “Everything else he did was worthy of praise.”

253：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 05:10:55.41 ID： ID:EHHaLs8f0

I would have accepted the loss if Mitoma, Kubo, and Endo were there and we lost.

254：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 05:11:19.78 ID： ID:CMW5mDHd0

It’s too painful that Mitoma, Kubo, and Minamino aren’t there.

255：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 05:12:08.12 ID： ID:tbYqgOag0

What do you mean by injuries?
Go fight with the resolve to die for the country.

239：Unknown Japuzz Watcher ： 2026/06/30(火) 05:02:11.50 ID： ID:4uXJp9iL0

Zion should be beating up the starters.
No matter how much he stops, it’s the same.
