Japan’s goalkeeper is a legend

日本の皆さんこんにちは 私は韓国人です 下手な日本語になるはずだが、何卒ご了解お願いします。 まず、何人の韓国人の無礼な行動をお詫び申し上げます。 本当に恥ずかしく、申し訳ございません 私は日本がとても好きです。 非常に尊敬して前で受けた2試合の競技力、選手たちの紳士的なプレー、ファンのマナー、やっぱり日本はすごくて世界的に本当に最高だと思います。 多分韓国が日本の立場イオッオド最後の試合は同じだったのだと思って、十分に理解してアジアの代表として良い成績を続けて行きたいです。 今にでも日本で住みたいくらいに日本を愛します。 いつもみんな元気でいてほしいです。 頑張れ侍!

Congratulations Poland From Morocco 🇲🇦 🇵🇱 💕💕 😍😘👍👍

Well done Poland greatings from Croatia

Automatic KZfaq lyrics: Speaker: Lewandowski Lyrics: love and dog sleep 😂😂😂😂😂

Bednarek is very underrated. He was like the best player for Poland in this world cup

From a pole, I am so happy for Bednarek! He had a hard child life, no one except for his brother believed in him, and for him to score the winning goal in the world cup is awesome. He has potential. Go Polska ! 🇵🇱🇵🇱

As someone said: It is very easy to criticize when you're not involved. They gave up from around 83' onwards. That's 83 minutes of actually trying, just 9 minutes shy of full time. We could've seen much worse, like Japan just passing around for 90 minutes, since Japan will also advance with a draw. You guys are just being overdramatic. It was the safest way for Japan to hope for an advance. Some people said Japan gambled, but it would be even more of a dangerous gamble if Japan had tried to score. Poland had no less than 5-6 players in the box in every Japanese attack. With such density coupled with their physical superiority, and competence, a goal for the Japanese was virtually impossible. They would fail and be overwhelmed with a very lethal Polish counterattack. Lewandowski was inches away from scoring. Twice. Both in counterattacks. Now that people ask why their Asian neighbor, Korea, played with stunning ferocity, yet Japan is the one who advances? Simple. Korea lost both matches. They played like a madman the last match because they no longer give a shit. They had nothing to lose, they were going home anyway. Japan, on the other hand, played beautifully and didn't lose their matches. They had nothing to gain and everything to lose (if) pressing the Polish for an attack. Put yourself in the boot of the Japanese manager. Anyone would have done the same.

Lewandowski: Miss 442oons: now is the time I present myself

Japan had played a nice game in the match against Colombia and Senegal, and it's them that was the ONLY team from Asia that advanced to the Round of 16! 「恭喜日本晉級16強！給波蘭的表現鼓掌！」 "I would like to dedicate my sincere respect and congratulations to Japan for the Round of 16 , along with my greeting and applause to Poland!"🎉 Give "LIKE👍" to Japan and Poland from Taiwan👋

Congrats for Poland !! Some people criticize Japan because of the boring game, but their priority was going through the stage, not meeting your expectation of showing an entertaining game at the risk of being disqualified. All the teams play to advance to the knockout stage. You may want to watch a 'good' game, but you can say so because you are not responsible for the result of the game. You can say "I'm sorry for the loss, it was a good game though," but don't forget that the World Cup is special for the players and the loss can decide the future of the players. It doesn't make sense to say that they should rather lose to entertain you instead of building another professional career. They have made tremendous efforts to be professional football players and to be selected for the national team. There is a huge difference form them between being kicked out and advancing to the knockout stage. The game against Poland is no easy task. Comparing the risk of losing another score or adding additional fouls / cards which would result in being disqualified to the risk of relying on Columbia's winning the game, Japan took the latter. They no doubt wanted to entertain people and win at the same time. But in this game, they had no choice to take a risk to go through. Japan's coach and all the players understood the situation and chose the tactics in exchange for taking all the bashing. The coach made a big bet. Japan lost the game but they won the ticket to the knockout stage. They will play full out in the next match.

Congrats Polish brothers - from Hungary 🇭🇺

Players did not waste these four years.負けても良いから攻めて欲しかったと言う人がいるが、選手達の4年間をなんだと思っているんだ。

Gratulacje z okazji zwycięstwa Polsko Bardzo podoba mi się polski kraj Pozdrowienia od nas Indonezja 🇮🇩 🤝 🇵🇱

Poland gave Japan a little present in last 10 minutes

世界中から批判を受けるのをわかっていながらも戦わないという選択をしたところにむしろ日本代表の覚悟が伺える。ほんとかっこいいわ。

Congratulations Japan🇯🇵!..from the Philippines! 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

Respect Poland from Russia brother.

Congratulations Japan and well played Poland!!! from Korea ^-^

なんて言われてもしゃーない試合や でもこの試合のおかげで最高のベルギー戦が観れた

love you Japan players go go

Well played Poland !! 🎉 Greetings from NEPAL 🇳🇵

I was supporting Japan but their last 15 minutes was disappointing. Still, you advanced to the round of 16 so congratulations and good luck Japan🇯🇵

"risen to frown profoundly"

0:44 Kawashima are real Wakabayashi...

A surprise win, Congratulations Poland 👏👏 From Turkey

Very frustrating last few minutes when Japan stopped playing pretty much.

What an impossible save by Japanese defender!!

Next Japan vs Belgium

Finally Polands Win🙄

Indonesia suport you japan

1:22 Lewandowski at Match he says "O k*rwa". I saw do at live 😂

Let's🇯🇲Go💥Japan 🇯🇵 Turn up the Ferocity & Truth in your game !!!!

I love Japan :D Gretting from Perú

Congratulations to Japan and Colombia!!! But I was a little disappointed with this game

Congratulations Poland. Nishino did not have the option of strategy, because Poland was convinced that it was strong.Although it was an unintended choice, I will support the commandment of Nishino's director.

I love Japan 🇯🇵🇯🇵

とりあえず16強おめでとう！どんな形であれ次に進めて選手、監督に感謝です。批判する人たちも多いけどルールに則ったきちんとした勝ち上がりだし次も頑張って欲しい

Japan will win the 2018 Wold Cup. I love Japan

Este juego fue realmente bueno! Todos participaron en ello. Buen trabajo

Best game ever for POLAND

Japan's coach made a risky decision of not starting their best players but it turns out to be very fruitful. I feel like Japan can advance into quarterfinal or even into semifinal. I really hope that Japan would make a big mark in the history of asian football in worldcup. I support you team Japan. from South Korea.

Congratulations Poland ,,, from Indonesia 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩

good game japan .. i am from thai .. i am proud of your country .. because the only country asia represents up to the level that is proud

I love my Poles. Keep your head up, y’all did well.

I saw this game in Volgograd Arena. The game was🤮🤮🤮🤮. One super pretty polish girl supporter was most interesting event in Volgograd Arena this day. ❤️🇵🇱

Are you seriously saying this team advanced because *"They played fair games."* ? Are you freaking serious ROFL

That save from the Japanese goalkeeper 🔥🔥🔥

Polish free kicks over Japan and Senegal were overstunning, the only two goals performed by Poland ⚽️⚽️

🇯🇵 + 🇵🇱 = 🇬🇱

Congratulations Poland From Turkey🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷

Love and respect for japan from INDIA

Ahhhh Poland's streak of "Nothing to play for, let's play some footy" continued...

Love Japan for India.....

CONGRATULATIONS POLAND!!!! 🍾😃💕

槙野が存在感出したのは給水のみ

１５分で勝ち進んだわけではない 最初の２試合で勝ち点４をGETしたからこそ勝ち進めた 他の敗退したチームはそれができなかった　だから日本は素晴らしい

こういう時は精神論だとかスポーツマンシップで叩いて、決勝敗退してたら結果論で叩いてたんだろうな 普段サッカーを見ない人も集まるのがワールドカップだし、こう叩かれても頑張ってほしい ミーハーサポーターたちの手のひら返しをまた見せておくれ

Such a boring game.. I expected Japan to bring more energy after their game against Columbia. I hope they understand their next opponent is England or Belgium

I love you Nippon.. no matter u win or lost .. gambatte..

Go Go Poland 👏

Congratulations Poland, well done boys!!!

Negetive match from 85 minutes, both team don't even wanna attack:)

i love *Poland Flag* , it's reminded me of another Flag *Asian Country* , i forget About that _Name_ , but they Also have Stronger Football Team in 2025.. yeah not now , but Future .. hope soon Poland meet Them. *congrats Poland* 👍🎉 *congrats Japan wakabayashi Genzo*

ここで批判してる国の奴、悔しかったらベスト16入ってみやがれ （誰か英語訳して)

Wow Japan congrats. Senegal was so close, good luck in the knockouts.

What a match it is like a win-win situation for both for Japan they are into the next stage for Poland they have proved that they qualified for the world cup not just by a MIRACLE (which was said to the press by a Polish player)

Peter Drury best Commentator 😍

Hard luck Japan, from Japan.

*_Get ready for season 2 of World Cup: The Anime_*

Japan is not SAMURAI today...

Awesome sportsmanship

Lewandowski during the match in Bayern 2 goals and 1 assist, this time in the national team at the world championship 1:17

this game was a disgrace

Poland!!!

Best game ever

Beautiful Japan T-Shirt

後半の作戦が本当にベストな選択だったかは正直疑問だが、結果として決勝に導いた西野監督は有能だろう。 勝とうが負けようが次は批判を吹き飛ばすようなサッカーをしてくれ！西野JAPAN🇯🇵⚽️

Thankyou i love you japan iam from iran

Mexico coach Juan Carlos Osorio urged action against repetitive fouling after his team was on the receiving end of 24 fouls in their 2-1 win over South Korea at the World Cup. 3 games total 68 fouls(top)（Japan 28 fouls）

両方勝っても嬉しいね

Congrats to Japan from your Asian brother India

The internet is to blame.

eh at least we won something :)

The problem was that the Japanese coach used mostly substitutes as if they're already through, could have played so much better with their regular lineup

terribly boring ending, there should be a rule to prevent situation like this

well played Poland congratulations all tigers love you 😘😘😗😗😗🙌🙌🔥👍👌👏🎉🎉🎉🎉💙❣💙❣💙❣💙❣💙❣💙❣💙❣💙❣💙❣💙❣💙❣💙❣💙❣💙❣💙❣

Japan did what had to be done and did not break any rules. Any team would have done what Japan did, to keep their advantage. Had they tried to attack and conceded or collected cards, people would call them out for their stupidity. Had Senegal scored that 1 goal, people would also call Japan out for their stupidty. Japan had a guranteed advantage in that last few minutes to qualify, they gambled and it paid off. So well done Japan. Messi did the same by wasting time to keep their advantage, England did the same against Belgium, every football team in the world have and would have done the same thing. So whoever thinks that Japan did a disgraceful act or against the spirit of football are wrong. Football requires brains alongside skills and so on, so lets not consider our players as dumb robots solely made for our entertainment. They're on a mission, they've used their brains and they've succeeded.

I’m polish and not gonna lie- when I heard Poland was qualifying for this for the first time in years- I was hella excited, but soon, it became a humiliation. On the very first match, we were beaten badly, and next one was even worse. It was just the second game, but we’d already lost that tournament, our chance was gone. But here is where this game steps in. We’d lost but we still did our best and it finally paid off. This is why this match will not be forgotten. We may’ve lost, but at least we weren’t a total failure, and at least when we left the game we knew that we had achieved at least something.
