In the World Cup, Mori Yasuichi changed formation in the second half of the 2-1 victory over Germany in the first round , but the two substitutes Don Yasushi and Asano Takuma both scored. In the game against Spain in the early hours of this morning, his substitutions also achieved very good results, with two substitute players contributing one pass and one shot.

The Japanese Prime Minister tweeted his congratulations after the Japanese team won, but what is interesting is that many Japanese netizens issued a holiday request under this tweet. The King of Saudi Arabia had given the country a day off after the victory over Argentina.
