No one expected, no, everyone was looking forward to seeing “Uniform Number 22” on the pitch again. Captain Maya Yoshida makes a shocking comeback at the age of 37. It was not just a festival to honor past achievements, but an extremely tactical and passionate “waking-up ceremony” for Japanese soccer to move on to the next stage.
