At the World Cup 2026, the Japanese national team lost 1-2 to Brazil and disappeared in the round of 32. Daichi Kamata, who started all four games and scored two goals, is attracting attention for his recommendations after the loss. “In order to aim for a championship, we cannot win unless soccer becomes Japan’s national sport.” “Japan is, for better or worse, scattered among many different sports.” “In countries that win championships, all of their talented players choose soccer.” These were fundamental questions raised out of frustration, pointing to the gap in foundation between Japan and the world’s best. On the internet, there are many pros and cons, such as “Baseball is absorbing the top athletes” and “We need to win once in the final tournament.” *This video is an explanatory content that reconstructs news and online reactions. *Fan voices are a reconstruction of online reactions. *Includes AI-generated audio and editing.
