OK, this is American football, not soccer.
On Wednesday, a team of Japanese boys beat the American team in the IFAF U20 World Junior Football Championships semifinals. The score was 41-20.
"How in the world does any country put together a team that hits the field against America in football and wins? It makes absolutely no sense," David Hookstead wrote for Outkick. "This is a country that has high school teams stacked with multiple future D1 players. Instead of sending some elite talent, I didn't recognize a single name on the USA roster."
Outrage spread quickly on social media:
Did Japan play with Godzilla or something?
