Japan faces challenges in World Cup knockout rounds

Japan's national team continued its failure in the knockout stages of the 2026 World Cup, as they were defeated 2-1 by Brazil in the Round of 32, thereby ending their dream after leading in the first half with a goal from Kaisho Sano. Brazil scored two goals in the second half through Casemiro and Gabriel Martinelli in the 96th minute, leading to dramatic turnarounds and extinguishing Japan’s hopes of reaching the quarter-finals for the first time in their history. This loss marks Japan's fourth consecutive defeat in the knockout stages, perpetuating their streak of failing to secure any victories in critical matches from their previous tournaments.
