Copa Japan 1963 Sweatshirt

Automatic translation Original description available here

Japan surprised the world by winning a bronze medal at the 1968 Olympic football tournament in Mexico City, yet had struggled to make the same impact four years earlier with the advantage of playing as host nation.

Circumstances were on Japan´s side when group stage opponents Italy withdrew from the tournament and a big surprise was sprung as they overcame Argentina 3-2 in their opening fixture, goals in the last 10 minutes by Kawabuchi and Ogi giving them an historic win. A 3-2 loss to Ghana still allowed Japan to qualify for the Quarter Finals where they would come up against the might of the Eastern Europeans.

Firstly Czechoslovakia easily won their Quarter Final tie 4-0 then further punishment arrived in the shape of a 6-1 defeat to Yugoslavia in a Consolation Round played between the beaten Quarter Finalists.
