Bummer. I hoped Japan would make it through.

I was too. 

A Brazil v Japan match would be something in the southern cities of Brazil.

Mostly São Paulo…but yeah, would have been interesting. I have a Japanese Brazilian friend who has been living in Japan for the past 10 years or so. When she got there, despite being Japanese and speaking the language, it was quite the culture shock.

Isn’t Curitiba also fairly Japanese?

Also, my first 6 days in São Paulo back in 2004, I had sushi twice. Then had sushi again a the yacht club on Ilhabela the next week and wondered what the hell the deal was with all of the sushi when at the time I thought that Brazil was simply a beef country. (I learned from Wikipedia.)

I don’t like that call.

I didnt either, the KOR player had no idea there was a player going towards the ball. and when he last saw the ball, it was a clear ball.

Glad to see Korea being put away so early. Truth is I only want to see European and South American teams moving forward. Japan and Korea had a nice run for Asia.

Agreed. Plus he had possession which should count for something.

Mild heartbreak as I like both sides and hate seeing one knocked out so early. That header from Perisic was gorgeous. The shootout ... not so much.
