Japan Fans Clean Up Stadium After World Cup Elimination
Forget banners. Many Japanese fans were waving bright blue garbage bags at the group stage finale against Colombia.
The Japanese have
touched spectators around the world by cleaning up their trash after
every match at the World Cup. After their 0-0 draw against Greece last
week, fans of the Blue Samurai shrugged off disappointment and cleaned
up after themselves inside the stadium following the final whistle. It's
a class act that has its roots in Japan's values of being respectful of
hosts and protecting the environment.
Japan's 1-4 loss to Colombia on Tuesday eliminated the team from the World Cup.
