Recently, Japanese legend Makoto Hasebe appeared on the Tokyo TV program “FOOT×BRAIN” and discussed the future of the Japanese national team.
When asked if Japan could win the World Cup in the future, Hasebe frankly admitted it would be very difficult. He also said that achieving this goal would require the whole society to work together.
He said: “(To win the World Cup) it’s not just about those involved in football, but also the local football culture. How passionate are people, how much can they really invest? This includes the media and fans, not just the players and coaches. If everyone is passionate and committed to doing this, it will happen someday.”
