2 years later and i still don't know how vertonghen scored that header
Maybe luck
Whatever it was it changed the whole tide of the game.
@@100t_unkown2 yea agree with you
Superjan
the whole japanese team was short compared to belgium
I remember watching this game live back in 2018 .. Not a dull moment in the second half .. no time wasting .. no passive defensive tactics .. 49 minutes of joy and excitement ..
Amazing performance by Japan .. But the winning goal was a masterpiece .. a lesson in counter attack and team play ..
Some people blame Japan for being overconfident and letting their guard down .. I'd rather give credit to Belgium for the third goal .. I don't think it's easy to score a goal like this if it was another team .. That was fantastic ..
yeah i agree with all of this, and it wasnt japan being too overconfident, it was belgium managing to find the weakspots quickly and exploit them with fellaini and lukaku
I thought the winning goal was atrocious defending from Japan, they were all over the place and opened up all sorts of holes for Belgium. Especially the guy who was right on Meunier, but leaves him to close down on de Bruyne. They were running on fumes not just physically but mentally, but in all fairness the Belgians were too strong.
@@Wyzzkyd
I agree .. Poor defending and Honda shouldn't have played the corner kick like this in the first place ..
However .. I've seen so many opportunities for counter attacks being horribly wasted .. Either by selfish players or by low stamina ..
Actually I think Lukaku realized that its not his lucky day ( he wasted many opportunities that night ) so he decided to leave the ball for Cahdli instead of trying his luck .. some other strikers wouldn't leave a loose ball like this for a teammate ..
Oy
Oi jafar
Japanese players really know how to hit a shot, just look at that knuckle
honda is world class
Many Japanese people don’t think so. They have lost many chances、、、
They really strike it clean don’t they
Back in 2010 Japan scored the same knuckle goal from freekick against Denmark
They are the best country of Asia, work hard and no excuse
Belgium had world class players and experience.
Japan had discipline and patience.
A game of true sorts. Two opponents respected each other.
Belgium won the match as expected.
Japan won our hearts!!
Games like these what makes Football so exciting
Japanese had fire in their hearts. The way they ran whether while defending or attack is beyond incredible. They put their hearts out in the game. Also, only if they had center back with tall physique and strength, Belgium would have lost this game easily.
Best world cup match in 2018.
Yes, it was full drama but that's right. I hope Belgium will play football against Fiji in my honourable football match.
I find Portugal against Spain
@@aminmon Don't get me wrong. Both were great 1 and 2 for me. But I think the finish in this game is what makes it so special.
Edit: Not every mentioning the 2-0 come back. Yeah definitely my favorite.
France Vs Argentina was
France vs argentina
Portugal vs spain
One of those two mate
That third goal was all Lukaku and he didn’t even touch the ball. Awesome game
Lukaku saw the big picture
Especially because Lukaku's first diagonal run opened up all the space for Meunier on the right wing. Then, once Meunier has it, Lukaku shows back to the ball opening up the space at the back post for Chadli, and to top it all off, he even dummies the ball through for him.
Kevin De Bryun was the architect.. Pure class. Reminded me of Pirlo of 2006
incredible sprint from chadli
Also credit to Courtois for being alert enough to quickly roll out the ball to KDB. It's a great team goal.
The first game I have seen in a longtime where I felt bad for whoever might lose. This Japan team was underrated
full respect to Japan, they almost shocked this world cup
True, me as a Belgian fully remember this game

This is what you call a knockout World Cup game. It had everything: drama, intensity, passion and one of the best counter attack goals ever.
Respect to Japan from Canada. They played really well in this match and just came short. Their team was entertaining to watch in the 2018 World Cup.
Rather ironic considering the way they played in the last 15 mins of their final group game against Poland lol. But they did indeed contribute to one of the best games in the 2018 world cup
Japan always comes up short, maybe because they're all short
@@cantrait7311 8
This defeat hurts a lot, they played so well yet at the end everything collapsed. It is always a pleasure to see Japan's matches, even if they lose but this one was frustrating
at least they defeated germany lol
@@CEOofSleep that was south korea
@@suhasguddeti2375 oh right
@PRO GAMER How does that Affect? Belgium may be Rank 1 but due to Defensive collapse at the final 15 Minutes they won. Ain't saying Belgium is Lucky, In fact taking advantage of Rival Mistakes is crucial. Both showed a great game and 1 thing is for sure.
Both of them would defeat Brasil next round.
Just kidding in that last sentence.

And then Belgium-France was the polar opposite of that…
aaaand I'm back here three years after the game. I cried so much after the game, but definitely the most memorable WC game of my life. Congrats to Belgium, but equally great job to Japan.
What a game this was!
何回でもこの日を繰り返していい
そう思えるほど人生で一番熱く夢を見させてくれた90分だった
I became a fan of the Japanese team from this match, going in not picking a side. I tend to root for the underdogs when neither is my team or country, and was so happy when they were up 2-0. This game was heartbreaking and I can’t imagine how it felt to the actual Japanese fans that day.
I dont even root for the underdog but they played very attractive football
I am one and it was sooooo frustrating yet I'm sooo proud of them 😭 I really hope they can go past round of 16 next world cup
私は日本人です。
正直言うと、乾のシュートが入った時は勝ったと思いました。
夜中の3時位に家族と寝ずに見ていましたが、希望が見えた後、わずか数分で絶望に落とされました。
Respect JAPAN from Indonesia, you have showed your best play. We are so proud to you 🇯🇵🇲🇨❤
I want Indonesia to qualify again one day, as the true Indonesia

@@KoechingSikucing indonesia playing in WC as Hindia belanda
That's long time ago
@@vanSterdamOfficial That was also when Indonesia was colonized by the Dutch, there were still a lot of mixed players from the Dutch East Indies
It was the biggest overcome of the 2018 World Cup.The winning goal was scored in the final minutes.The winning goal play started with the goalkeeper.Lukaku made a brilliant move and left the ball for another player to score.
It took 11 seconds for the ball to travel from the belgium g.k into japan's net...that counter attack was on fire.
Lukaku's movement on the last goal was amazing. His first diagonal run opened up all the space for Meunier on the right wing. Then, once Meunier has it, Lukaku shows back to the ball opening up the space at the back post for Chadli, and to top it all off, he even dummies the ball through for him.
This was my favorite game of the 2018 World Cup and I think the 2018 World Cup was the best World Cup I've had the pleasure of watching (out of 2002, 2006, 2010, 2014, and 2018... I watched in 1994 and 1998 but I was too young to understand everything and since I'm American I didn't have anyone to explain the sport to me). In addition to Chadl'is amazing goal, Japan's second goal was truly exceptional, too. What a crazy shot, it was such a pure strike that the ball didn't rotate a single time on the way in.
Best comment ever
@@edwarddominguez7186 Thanks!
But final was boring
@@khalidsaif2798 I mean, how many World Cup finals finish 4-2? It was one of the better finals in recent memory!
@@kevinanderson6094 perfectly described
After watching this for maybe the 10th time, Honda's knuckle free kcik was a thing of beauty that no one talks about. Perhaps could've been higher but great read and save by Courtois.
I really hoped it was gonna go in :")
One thing that is extremely underrated about this game is how Japan never backpedaled, never stepped back, never was afraid of an immensely superior Belgium team. A lot of teams would have just parked the bus in front of their goal after stumbling into a 2-0 lead, but they kept attacking, giving their fans a show. Really admirable.
Your comment is more than perfect
You can´t park the bus when Belgium players are 20 cm taller. You have to keep playing
I still get my shivers whenever I go back to see Chadli's goal. The moment of "can you believe it" by the commentator
same, that goal, from the moment the keeper rolls it out, its so dramatic, every player knows 'this is it'...the japanese players running back for their lives, goosebumps.
belgium shoyldve lost honestly im still mad they won when they had to no right to, belgium shouldve just given up and let japan win. Chadli should not have any right to score. i mean let's face it its always they overrated top rank team that win
the underdogs japan were suppose to win it. i wouldv'e just disallowed that goal and given the win to japan. underdogs like nippon deserve to be on top
@@nickdaddario9152seems a little unfair doesn’t it? Japan was great, but in fair football the strongest rules. Fair games come with brutal outcomes.
As a 90's kid growing up watching many Japanese animated series/movies, and being Captain Tsubasa one of my favorites, Japan always has had a special place in my heart.
What a fantastic match the Japanese played!

These are the games that make me love the world cup
I have never forget this match. Fellaini and Nacer Chadli were really change the game
What a game this was! I wanted Belgium to win this world cup even though i am a hardcore Brazil fan...I was rooting for Belgium even before start of the world cup as this is the best ever talented team of Belgium comprising of Premier League superstars...I was watching this game with my father and when Japan was leading 2-0 i told him that Belgium has the capacity to make a comeback...but this sort of comeback was like a going to heaven feeling...fought hard throughout and very unfortunate to lose against France in the semis...but still attained the 3rd place in the world cup beating England...hope this team returns strong in 2022 world cup.
You bet they will. I highly anticipate them to make it far
@Zepar if you think it that way...it's ok...I don't care...I know what I think.
Did you support brazil in the quarter finals Against Belgium? 😒
@@youhankabir3433 well honestly I wanted both teams to face each other in the final. But what Iam saying is since Brazil has already won five World cups it was ok if they lost against Belgium because it's a superstars team. But it was very unfortunate for them to lose against France in the semi-finals.
Hello! It sadly didn’t go all that well in 2022 WK. As a Belgian I am fairly disappointed that we didn’t come far at all. It’s fun to see our Red Devils when they were at there prime! That’s why I watched this vid back!
nothing beats these moments in world cups! absolutely magical and devastating at the same time
I was so heartbroken for Japan... that was such a brutal defeat
they shouldve moved on and not belgium the underdogs shoudlve won chadli had no right to score that goal
The japanese gk is amazing !🤩🔥💥
4:56 just look at the shot technique, the ball flying still into the net. satisfying to watch
A Brazilian fan . But felt bad for japan more than brazil. Because they deserve something great in that world cup.
Greatest comeback ever
But you know already who wins the supporter's heart
Anjay
I am Belgian and proud of my team, but my heart cry for Japan, I am so sad for them :(
Japan played their hearts out on this game but Belgium was too much for them
My words won't be able to express how fond I am of Lukaku. He missed 2-3 of his signature plays throughout the game, which, if had gotten in, would have been decisive. But in the very end, when the ball was passed to him, and he would have bee able to score, he selflessly let it pass to his colleague. What a player.
Watched this live, was rooting for Japan as the underdogs, the final goal was so dramatic, the moment the break began you could see every player realised 'this is for all the marbles'...goosebumps.
Ah yes the day I lost 2 years of my live due to all the strokes I had during this game as a Belgian.
Love 🇧🇪 from 🇯🇵
Japan is the proud of asia.from❤️🇧🇩
You mean Asia is......
That unbelievable header by vertonghen, the double save of Japan's goalkeeper, the great comeback and counterattack by Belgium, and that fake by Lukaku. This is undeniably the best match in the best world cup ever.
Guess you didn't see 2006 FIFA World Cup when Italy went to Berlin instead of Germany at their ballpark. Ghana-Uruguay in 2010? Zidane masterclass against Brazil?
@@HardHustler956 2006 and 2010 didn’t have as many exciting matches as 2018
I watch this from time to time. I believe that this match is one of the best and most fair matches ever that were played during a World Cup. It should have been the Finals.
Belgium roared when our Red Devils scored that final goal but our hearts bled for the Japanese players, who equally deserved to win. We are fully aware of that fact.
After the 0-2 most of thought it was over. Only the maturity and teamwork of the Red Devils assured our victory. Not many teams could come back from a 0-2 but they managed to do just that.
Greatest of respect to the Japanese players also. They grabbed us by the throat at the start of the match. They fought like honorable warriors and never relented in their attacks. They kept their game up to the very last.
Together, both our teams played one of the most beautiful and fair matches that were ever played during a World Cup. Too bad there had to be a winner.
Has to be the best comeback for all time 🔥🔥🔥🔥
this game breaks my heart every time i watch it. well played by Japan. I can't imagine what the players must have been feeling when that final whistle blew. Every goal scored was quality (though i don't think even Vertonghen knows how he scored that first one lol), but Japan's were just some top drawer stuff.
Everyone with a heart for football and a brain knows this was the best game of the wc
Best comeback in World Cup History
No, the best comeback in the world cup was in the final of Switzerland, 1954. Germany defeat Hungary 3-2 , after 0-2.

This was by far the best Match of 2018 world cup..
Full of energy, and both teams roaring 🔥
Japan is my favourite country, I love everything about Japan, the people are so nice and cultured. I'm from India, and to be realistic, I don't know if India will ever even qualify to FIFA World Cup given its focus towards cricket and neglect to football. So I wish I see Japan lift world cup one day. ❤️
Haha well. As it seems, oriental asia is football oriented while south asian is cricket oriented.😂🤣
@szewei85 The oficial name is East Asia, just like the oficial name for midle east is West Asia. No country in East Ásia has football as favorite sport, but it is still much more popular then in South Asia
@S CZ I believe korean still prefer baseball over football, just like Japan. And chinese like pingpong more than basketball. And in Southeast, Philippines like more basketball than football.
@S CZ Uzbekistan is a very respectable team in Asia, I hope you can go to the World Cup this time and represent Central Asia for first time in World Cup history, I believe It's possible!
Weeb probably.
Asian sadness 😭Respect Japan! Asian proud of you ❤️
Huge huge respect for Japan for representing Asia up there , challenging one of the top teams in Europe❤️❤️
It was a game where you sat on the edge of your seat until the last second. Awesome game, great comeback.
One of the best matches I've ever seen! Pure adrenaline rush!
This one will go down in history. It had everything.
Lukaku’s off the ball movement for that third goal was just 🤌
last i checked belgium should've just given up, they had no right to win that nor score that 3rd goal. it shouldve just been the underdogs. Belgium shouldve just walked out like cowards and pull a dpr Korea
And today Japan shocked everyone again by beating Germany 2-1
Never forget that Lukaku produced the greatest counter attack of all time without touching the ball.
I’ve watched a shorter version of this match highlights for a couple of times and today watching this extended version brought me more excitement. I’ll never get tired of praising the commentator, on his fabulous poem-like rendering of the game. When Hazard was shooting, the way he called out his name was like a father to his beloved son or a teacher to his best student!
1点目が悔やまれるな〜
まさか狙ってくるとは思わなかったけど、
あれで流れが変わった感ある。
にしてもあの場面で枠内に蹴れる本田と香川のパフォーマンスすごいな
I'm a Chinese.I was deeply shocked by the performance of the Japanese team.Japanese team is the Asian pride.And I hope one day Chinese team can do so well,too.

Hello, I am Belgian. This match was incredible. Even if I was happy at the moment and during the tournament I felt sorry then after for Japan because your team played very well. Since then more and more football players from Japan do play in the Belgian league.
Best counter attack in football🔥
This is the game I remember most from the World Cup, amazing referees did spot on and a great game of just football honestly Belgium deserved this win and I love how Belgium realised theyre much taller and bigger so they started just shooting up high into the box and it worked
This was one of the most extraordinary matches between two nations, an extraordinary comeback in men's FIFA World Cup history. I'm glad to have seen it live.
That turning and crossing from Hazard 💥

Looking back at this game, that Vertonghen Header really changed the game. Call it whatever you want, but that goal really lifted Belgium’s morale.
Kawashima, the goalkeeper, at least should've tried to punch the ball at the time of Vetronghen’s header. His negligence changed the tide of the game. 😭😭😭
