Ahead of the first round of the World Cup 2026 finals, Japan vs. Brazil, Japan representative Junya Ito rarely revealed his true feelings. In an interview the day before, he said, “If we really lose, it’s over. I’m a little nervous.” Still, he looked forward, saying, “But I’m more excited. I’m looking forward to playing against a serious Brazil side.” “Once we get into the game, it doesn’t matter.” Ito started this tournament against Tunisia and scored his first goal in the World Cup. At age 33, he is the oldest Japanese player to score at a World Cup. I will turn my stress and excitement into strength and take on the kingdom of Brazil. Kickoff is June 30th at 2am Japan time. *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.
