watching all these underdogs play their first world cup matches, seeing countries most people barely ever talk about go toe-to-toe with former world champions is such a beautiful feeling. it feels like a small glimpse of decolonisation in sport, a reminder that football doesn't

Saat berjalannya pertandingan tadi ada satu perkataan komentator yang menarik yaitu "there is no inferiority complex in Japanese football today". Sudah tidak ada perasaan inferior pada sepakbola Jepang (timnas) sekarang.

Bukti bahwa level Jepang sudah tinggi baik permainan maupun mental. Dan yang mengakui ini adalah komentator yg merupakan orang Eropa langsung.

Bukti bahwa blue print jangka panjang mereka berjalan dengan baik. Kalau yg mengikuti Jepang pun pasti melihat bahwa progressnya terlihat.

Jepang juara dunia 2050? Sangat masuk akal.

Wirtz is the conductor of Nagelsmann’s Germany ie the one controlling the rhythm finding pockets, connecting phases, flowing the attacks with 1 touch combos.

Nagelsmann doesn’t restrict him to a position he platforms him as a roaming problem-solver.

Every tournament Japan 🇯🇵 gets the “dark horse” label, then everyone’s shocked when they bully another European team. Bro it’s not a surprise anymore. Elite technique. Tactical discipline. Relentless engine. Fearless vs the giants

Henry is cooking in all his comments

[Vfynn_🥷🏼 𐙚 @Vfynn_]

🚨🗣️New: Thierry Henry reacts to the Brazil, Morocco, and Netherlands press conferences, where questions in Spanish were reportedly not permitted for Hakimi, Vinícius Jr., and Frenkie de Jong:

“I have covered World Cups for years, and this situation makes absolutely no sense to me. You’re telling me a World Cup co-hosted by Mexico can stop journalists from asking questions in Spanish? That’s like hosting a Formula 1 race and banning cars from using their engines.

We saw it with Hakimi. We saw it with Vinícius. Now we’re hearing similar stories involving Frenkie de Jong. The players understood the questions. The journalists spoke one of the most widely spoken languages on the planet. Yet somehow the language became the problem.

Gianni Infantino talks about inclusion, diversity, and bringing football to everyone. Fine. Then explain this contradiction. How can FIFA celebrate diversity in every promotional video and then create headlines because Spanish journalists are being told to switch languages at a tournament hosted by Mexico?

Spanish isn’t some obscure dialect spoken by a handful of people. It’s the language of hundreds of millions across the Americas and beyond. If a journalist from Mexico, Spain, Argentina, Colombia, or anywhere else asks a question in Spanish and the player understands it, why is football creating barriers where none existed?

The irony is unbelievable. FIFA keeps telling us football belongs to everyone, but this controversy has many fans asking whether some voices are more welcome than others.

Maybe there’s a logistical explanation. Maybe it’s a translation issue. But perception matters. And right now the perception is terrible.

Because what fans are seeing is simple: a World Cup hosted partly by a Spanish-speaking nation, players who understand Spanish, journalists who speak Spanish, and officials telling them not to use Spanish.

If that’s progress, somebody needs to explain it better. Because from the outside, it looks like football’s governing body is tripping over its own message.”

“FIFA wanted a celebration of diversity. Instead, they’ve handed the internet a controversy that won’t stop being discussed.”

🇯🇵Jepang tidak hanya bermimpi untuk juara Piala Dunia.

Pada tahun 1992, bahkan sebelum mereka lolos ke Piala Dunia untuk pertama kalinya dan ketika sepak bola Jepang masih sedang terpuruk, Jepang mengumumkan "Visi 100 Tahun" mereka: menjadi juara Piala Dunia pada tahun 2092.

Pada tahun 2005, setelah sudah tampil di dua edisi Piala Dunia, Japan Football Association memajukan target tersebut. Mereka kini menargetkan menjadi juara dunia pada tahun 2050.

Tim nasional Jepang, yang dijuluki Samurai Blue, selalu tampil di setiap Piala Dunia sejak debut mereka pada tahun 1998. Edisi 2026 menjadi penampilan kedelapan mereka secara beruntun.

Jepang juga tidak pernah keluar dari 20 besar peringkat dunia sejak 2023. Bahkan, mereka mampu menyusun seluruh skuad berisi 26 pemain yang semuanya hampir bermain di Eropa. Sementara masih ada banyak pemain berkualitas lain yang berada di luar skuad utama.

Semua tanda menunjukkan bahwa Jepang sedang berada di jalur perkembangan yang tepat. Bisa mengalahkan Jerman, Spanyol, Brazil & Inggris juga bukan sebuah kebetulan. Namun pertanyaannya, sejauh mana Jepang bisa melangkah di Piala Dunia 2026?

Atasan aku (WNA) waktu ada demo beberapa waktu lalu: “Gimana menurut kamu soal orang-orang yang demo?”

Jujur, aku pikir beliau mau komplain soal macet atau hal semacamnya. Tapi aku gak mau jawab bohong.

Aku: “Saya mendukung, Pak. Karena mereka menuntut hak mereka, hak-hak kami yang tidak bisa ikut turun untuk demo.” (Takut sbnrnya jawab begini)

Bapake: “Aku juga mikir gitu. Setiap aku lihat driver aku, art aku, karyawan-karyawa local, orang-orang jualan, liat orang yang desak-desakan di transum… hati aku sakit dan aku ngerasa gak tega. Kalian harus tuntut dan dapatin hak kalian. Udah gajinya gak seberapa tapi masih aja ditindas. Aku dukung banget kalian menuntut.”

Aku dengerinnya sampe speechless.
