The Japanese soccer team, under the leadership of coach Hajime Moriyasu, faced a massive defeat in a recent match held in Brazil. The Brazilian press has used the term 'great disaster' to describe the outcome of the match for the Japanese team.

Soccer, or football as it is commonly known worldwide, has a significant fan base in Japan. Significant public and media attention is paid to national team matches, and the performance of the team is a matter of pride for the fans. A loss, especially on a large scale like this one, can trigger disappointment and calls for improvements within the country.

In the US or EU, soccer is also a major sport with a huge following. Defeats in international games are usually met with an equally strong reaction. Media and public scrutiny can be intense, and there may be calls for changes in team management or strategy.
