Even after the match, we received unexpected kindness from Brazil.
Several Brazilian players, including Alisson, Neymar, and Cunha, came to console the Japanese players.
Most movingly, Carlo Ancelotti himself personally spoke with Shogo Taniguchi.
Ancelotti has won the Champions League five times as a manager. For someone of his stature to show such consideration toward players from the opposing team was deeply humbling.
We are truly grateful for the sportsmanship shown by Brazil.
