🚨🇯🇵Thierry Henry: “Japan Played With Courage, Intelligence and Identity”
“Every World Cup, Japan earn a little more respect, and tonight they deserved every bit of it. People always talk about the technical quality of Brazil, but what impressed me most was the courage Japan showed without the ball. They stayed compact, they trusted each other, and every player knew exactly what his job was.”
“When they won possession, they didn’t panic. They attacked with purpose, and Kaishu Sano’s goal was a perfect example of belief meeting execution. Against Brazil, one mistake usually costs you, but Japan kept making Brazil think. They frustrated them, they slowed the rhythm, and for long spells they made one of football’s greatest nations look uncomfortable.”
*“This Japanese team has an identity. They don’t rely on individual stars to carry them; they move as one unit. That discipline, that humility, and that tactical intelligence are why they continue to compete with the biggest countries in world football. Whether they go through or not, every top nation now knows that playing Japan is no longer a favourable draw—it’s a serious football match that demands your very best.”

Brazil's equalizing goal was a clear offside, and this entire tournament is corrupt. VAR was designed to disqualify teams that don't use it properly. FIFA wants this for publicity and other reasons. This tournament is run by advertising companies, not FIFA. The first equalizing goal was clearly offside. The VAR code shows the Japanese player's foot and the Brazilian player's header. There was massive manipulation of the match production and VAR technology, and the direction was clearly biased. These are shots from the pitch, without any manipulation by the directors. You're playing inside a FIFA game.
