I’ve been watching football for 20 years, and I swear I’ve never seen a player like that Ferran Torres. To this day, I genuinely have no idea whether he’s good, bad, or even what his strengths and weaknesses are.
Xavi, Flick, De la Fuente, Luis Enrique, and Pep all seem unable to figure out whether he’s actually a good player or not. Even Ferran himself probably doesn’t know.
He’s so weird that he was born on February 29th, meaning his birthday only comes once every four years. The guy somehow even managed to lose the chance to celebrate his birthday every year. 😭😂
🚨 Kevin De Bruyne on Iran goalkeeper Beiranvand:
“Every time we thought we’d finally beaten him, he made another save. At one point I asked which club he plays for. When they said Tractor, I thought they were describing how he got to the stadium.”

Bek Timnas Tunisia, Ali Abdi meluapkan kekecewaannya pada Asosiasi SepakBola Tunisia 🇹🇳💥
🗣:"Lihat tim nasional Jepang hari ini. Mereka bermain dengan hampir pemain dan tim yang sama sejak 2022. Mungkin hanya satu atau dua pemain yang berubah. Itu adalah tim yang telah mereka bangun selama bertahun-tahun.
Sebaliknya, bagaimana dengan kita? Kita mendatangkan pelatih baru hanya satu bulan sebelum Piala Dunia dan mencoba membangun tim yang sama sekali berbeda. Tidak mungkin kita akan mendapatkan hasil dengan persiapan seperti itu. Ini bukan masalah pemain. Cara kita melakukan sesuatu itu salah."

After Japan's draw with the Netherlands, Daichi Kamada was seen outside the dressing room looking upset and frustrated.
He responded by scoring in the opening minutes against Tunisia, helping Japan become the first Asian team to score four goals in a FIFA World Cup match 🇯🇵❤️
🚨Jose Mourinho on Japan’s 4-0 World Cup demolition of Tunisia:
🗣️ “I’ve coached for so many years. When I see a good team, I know it. Japan are one of them.
“One truth never changes — the most dangerous teams are the ones everyone overlooks. Japan have crossed that line. They’re not underdogs anymore.”
“A 4-0 at a World Cup doesn’t come from luck. That’s planning, tactical discipline, quality, and 11 players thinking as one.”
“What impressed me most wasn’t the goals. It was the mindset. No fear, no doubt. They played like a team that believes it belongs with the elite.”
“Before the tournament, all the talk was Brazil, France, Argentina. Meanwhile Japan worked in silence, building chemistry away from the spotlight.”
“Big names don’t win tournaments. Teams do. Teams that trust each other, cover every blade of grass, and fight to the final whistle. Japan ticked every box.”
“The scary part? They’re getting better every 90 minutes. That’s what separates contenders from participants.”
“When I watch Japan I see 3 things: hunger in the press, structure in the shape, sacrifice in the work rate. Those win championships.”
“Some still won’t call them favourites. Fine. But if they keep playing like this, that debate ends fast.”
“Every World Cup has that one team that catches fire. Right now, Japan have the belief, momentum, and form. The fire is spreading.”
“If I were still in the dugout, I’d circle Japan as the last team I want in knockouts. They don’t just want to participate. They’re chasing destiny
Ada yang masih ingat saat jepang bilang mau keluar dari AFC?
Pada bulan oktober 2025, media jepang mengabarkan bahwa JFA mempertimbangkan untuk keluar dari AFC.
Karena ada claim bahwa konfederasi Asia cuma boneka Qatar — 7 dari 11 keputusan penting AFC 2023-2024 menguntungkan Timur Tengah.
Salah satunya adalah saat kualifikasi Piala Dunia 2026 dimana Qatar & Arab Saudi mendapat istirahat lebih banyak dibanding rival.
Bahkan jepang menginisiasi pembentukan East Asian Football Federation baru, terpisah dari AFC.
Setuju ngga kalau Indonesia juga keluar dari AFC?
