Fans were shocked at the Japanese team coach’s action

As the Qatar 2022 World Cup progresses, fewer and fewer countries remain in the competition, with the goal of lifting the long-awaited trophy that all nations want to have in their trophy cabinets, but few achieve it.

Fans were shocked after Japan coach’s action

“The players can think about competing against everyone from the same level. They showed us the future of Japanese soccer, a new era,” said Hajime Moriyasu, after Japan lost on penalties to Croatia and failed to advance to the quarterfinals.

For many teams, the simple fact of doing a good job and getting through some stages is already of great merit, so they can go home happy.

Others will want to do the impossible to stay in the race or at least learn from their mistakes, to come back with more strength in the next edition.

That seems to be the case of Japan, a team that had a great performance in the group stage, topping their group by defeating Germany and Spain

In a match that went all the way to penalties, going to extra time after 90 minutes, the European team won, thanks to the great performance of Dominik Livaković

As a result, the Japanese took a bitter result after the good World Cup they had been having. However, far from being angry about the elimination, the coach of the Asian country, Hajime Moriyasu, had a gesture of gratitude to the fans who went to cheer the team in all these matches and cheered until the last minute.
