the same traffic rules as bicycles, including not riding on sidewalks.
Really? In Koto-ku every single bicycle is riding on sidewalks ffs. I want to punch their faces, especially during rush hours and rainy days.

Looks like another European country fails at this World Cup. This might be the last chance for a European team to win. From now on Asian teams and African teams will win.
Asian teams do not have what it takes to win. Too much senpai, kouhai stuff

Very average team.
Japan is the only top-of-the-group team that failed to qualify for the next round. Couldnt overcome aging, slow Croatia team. Shows how lucky they were in group stages.
Got lessoned by abysmal Vosta Rica. Were lucky against Germany and Spain.

Look at all these people who started watching football for a couple of days now. Penalties have been there for a long time. Greater teams and players than Japan were a victim of penalties (ask the English).
Players should be prepared to take penalties, especially in such big tournaments.
