Japanese government should declare a public holiday, just like Saudi given a public holiday
Football aside, during WW2, Germany & Japan are axis power! They are friends
I hope the japanese fans cleaned the stadium well that day
I’d compare this victory to the Japanese naval victory over Russia in 1905.
They celebrate so cute
