Oh man, thanks for reminding me of my youth. I was a DE for the Japan U19 team back in 2004 when it was known as The NFL Global Junior Championship (GJC). I graduated high school at the time in Houston and was pretty much done with my high school football career until I got a message from my HS football coach. Since Houston was hosting the Super Bowl in 2004, Mike Johnston, Head Coach of the state champs Katy HS was the GJC Team USA Head Coach in 2004. He called up my coach since he knew that I was Japanese who played DE and team Japan was in dire need of additional members since some of them couldn't make the trip last minute. So here I am, quickly put to the fire and learning as much as I can with the new to me team a few days before the tournament started. I remember our first game, losing to Canada 10-2 with me and my partner DT getting credit for the safety score. Followed by a loss to Mexico and a win again Russia, who was a first time participant, and getting destroyed by the USA 35-0 in the first round of round robin play. We made it to the 3rd place game by beating Russia for the second time but lost the 3rd place game to Mexico 34-0. All in all, it was soo much fun. I remember meeting Elvin Bethea (HoF DE from the Houston Oilers) as he was the honorary chairman for the GJC that year after the Canada game congratulating me on the safety score as we were both DEs. Got to meet a few Texans players since we were using some of their facilities including Jabar Gaffney and a very young Andre Johnson.
@@packers12to80 I remember there were 4 of us D-line guys on the roster so we rotated out on 3rd down in pairs so me and "partner" Defensive Tackle were in that safety scoring play. Normally you switch defensive 'packages' based on the situation, however since they wanted to have simple directions, "partner" was easier to pronounce/understand for the Japanese guys than "send in the nickel package", etc.

I have capched amateur ball, and we [Peru] have defeated other South and Central america teams before covid.
@@heyheyhey33351 Well the reason being to help it grow internationally, people are starting to pay attention more, in Japan American football is currently the 4th most popular sport I believe. And the reason why its mainly D3 college is because most teams are about the level or lower, but Japans preforming at a D2 college level cause they are taking it more seriously due to culture/sport popularity.
Idc if its supposed to be low level US players, go out and PLAY instead of sleepwalking through this match. USA deserves this embarrassment for the level of effort here
@@troybaxter Well it doesn't help either that we sent 2 star, d2 and d3 players, while other countries send their best highschool players.

To be clear, this is officially the IFAF U-20 Men’s World Championship tournament (the game we see here was a semifinal). The rules for U.S. squad selection are highly restrictive, in order to make the competition . . . actually competitive. (And even at that, some squads, like Brazil and Panama, end up utterly outclassed anyway.) Basically, if you fielded a true U.S. U-20 all-star team, with top underclassmen from D-I colleges, they’d absolutely kill everyone else. And that would do nothing for the growth of the game internationally, which is what the IFAF (and any truly thinking fan of the game) wants. Yeah, there was poor play by the American side, but it looks mostly like the squad have not been practicing together long, nor working long with their coaches. There’s also the context that in international football, while the very best American players are just leaps and bounds beyond the talent in other nations, there are a few countries where American football is taken seriously, and played with some creditable competence: most notably Canada, of course, but also Mexico, Japan, and Germany. In the IFAF Senior Men’s World Championships, while even the sharply age-limited (and non-professional) U.S. squads reliably beat those nations decisively, one can say they at least belong on the same field as the American team. So, the U.S.’s getting beaten by the Japan side here is not a shock. I’m not getting worked up over it, and if it encourages a bit more international interest in the sport, all well and good.
you should definitely look up how they recruit for the team *Step 1: DIGITAL COMBINE - Submit your information, measurables and highlight to the GMTM Digital Combine.* Step 2: INVITE & COMMIT - USA Football personnel will invite athletes to the team, covering: benefits, expectations and team logistics like athlete membership and participant fees. *Step 3: VIRTUAL DEVELOPMENT - Athletes get virtual and on-demand access to X's & O's, Technical Training, Mental Performance, Strength & Conditioning, Nutrition & Hydration, and more.* Step 4: TRAINING CAMP - The U.S. National Team arrives in Edmonton, Canada to prepare for competition from June 14-19. Step 5: INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION - The U.S. National Team steps onto the gridiron to compete against Canada, Japan, Austria, Australia, Panama and Brazil. Our mission is Gold.
I 100% agree. It’s kind of cool seeing other countries be competitive against even our D3 guys. Americans have been playing their whole lives, along with football being a major part of our culture. Imagine the talent we would see in the NFL if it truly went global.
@@Chunkyb514 We are for Punters and some Kickoff kickers because of new rules in NFL we see Australian Rules Players from Australia and some Rugby players from top 13-man Rugby areas in World and are seeing a few big guys from Non USA Samoa who first played in NCAA or Canada Universities as a walk on originally.
Keep in mind that U20 (under 20 YO) is what we'd call in most American competitions 19U (19 YO and under), since you're 19 until your 20th birthday. American football's popularity in a nation depends largely on rugby's *not* being very popular there. Japan's exceptional, since Rugby Union is a fairly big deal there, but of the countries mentioned, rugby's not that big a deal in either Mexico or Germany.
When you have two sets of non-elite athletes, one group of them are dedicated, work hard and give their all during the game. The other group go through the motions, look like they don't care, and don't even look prepared to play. The results shouldn't be a surprise.
I expect nothing less from Japan. America really needs to get out of their ego. You want to be the best? Then show the world and dominate. Losses like this are a byproduct of ego and individualism instead of teamwork and tenacity.
@@troybaxterthey’re also the by product of garbage tier talent. IMG academy would have mopped the floor, an elite D1 football team would laughing by how lopsided the halftime score would have been.
I mean Japan is a client state and the US did help rebuild it so if Japan fails the Us fails. Secondly, it's in the interest of the states to encourage and support IFAF, it means more people watching, meaning more people are playing, meaning theirs more foreign-born competition, meaning theirs more people being forged into heroes, meaning they will create hero kids we can fight for fun, there's not point having a war with yourself it gets boring, it also means new good geneseed that can immigrate here too add to the pile so we can create a group of diverse people created from the best geneseed from the globe as fast as possible to surpass current human limits and conquer the stars.
Before anyone overreacts, please hear me out. 1st, my background - I am an American who has lived in Japan for nearly 40 years. I know Japanese culture, language and thinking VERY well. I have been going to watch the Japanese semi-pro X League football games for 15 seasons now. They got good players who play in the CFL, but they are not main players in the CFL, but rather 3rd string and or practice squad members. 2nd - This is an Under 20 international tournament, not a top level tournament. 3rd - This Japanese team consists of a mixture of Japanese kids who have lived most of their lives in the USA, and, American kids who have a Japanese ethnic background, and, are mixed race kids with dual Japanese and American citizenship. Only some on this Japanese team have true blue Japanese citizenship as in Japanese guys born and raised in Japan only. 4th - This so-called American team consists of guys who at best may play at the NCAA division 3 level, but I suspect some or most of them are at the junior college tech level, or, are guys who played high school ball and this is their last rodeo. Seriously, but look at how out of shape some of those guys are and their lack of athleticism. Plus the coaching on the U.S. side is miserable. 5th - In saying all that, the Japanese are getting better at football, period. There is no doubt about it. I suspect it won't be too long to where we will see a Japanese guy from Japan who will play in the NFL. It may or may not happen in my lifetime, but it is coming. I guarantee. it. 6th - The Japanese never give up. Never. One should never under any circumstances underestimate the Japanese, ever. The Japanese could be getting blown out in any kind of sporting event but you would never know it because they never give up until the very end of the game, ever. What that means is that we are witnessing live from year to year, decade to decade how the Japanese have been getting better and better at football. Decades ago it was just a dream of the Japanese to have a Japanese citizen to play in the NFL and now it is becoming a reality. Again, it will happen, but it is just a matter of time. 6th - If the U. S. had put a respectable team out there on the field, we would see different results. But the fact of the matter is that the U.S. is hodge podge at best and the Japanese team looked really good at this Under 20 level. They looked sharp, practiced, serious, and ready to play. The U.S. looked abysmal. Yet, in saying that despite the U.S. being a ragtag team, they still scored 20 on a better Japanese team. 6th - So what does that mean? It means, as I said before, that that Japanese have CERTAINLY improved at playing football over the years, but I can guarantee that if the U.S. had put a well organized, well-coached USA team out there that the U.S team would win handily. There is not question about it. But, it is what it is and the Japanese are taking this tournament (as all tournaments of any sport ) seriously and the U.S. is not. Japan deserved this win and the U.S. had better re-think their approach to any internamtional tournament that we play in. ( I am sick and tired of the U.S. putting out an inferior product when it comes to football, baseball to give the opposing teams a leg up. It is frankly nauseating. )
I was getting ready to laugh at the uselessness of this tournament until you told me my Canadian team slaughtered their opponent... now this tournament is my world! 😂
Can you also analyze US losing to Austria for the bronze ? This was a great video. It's about time the US starts taking the international game seriously
Well you gotta gave my former student #4 Team Captain Toby Linscott credit for his receiving skills a 65 yd and a TD even though he is actual and All Star quarterback for his University. Team Japan was well coached and i pray will take the Gold Sunday against Canada. Gambatte Nihon!!!
It was mentioned in the comments that Japan’s athletes may not be the “best” but will work extremely hard and give their absolutely best effort in games. We saw the results of that effort. Good job Japan.
Relax, this is just the universe setting things straight and even after USA beat Pakistan in Cricket. To be totally honest, that was huge, more so than 1980 Lake Placid.
The US team only met for the first time six days before the tournament. That is not enough time to get a team together with kids from completely different systems and it showed.
Seriously? And they tried to use the fly sweep??! The fly offense can be devastating when they have the timing for it down, but it's a really poor choice when you have only 6 days.
@@goodmaro I saw retired nfl players saying they would've coached or helped out. The coach is a random high school coach. They also said they could've just sent IMG Academy.
honestly, I would not be surprised to see Japan field a really good offensive line, given their culture Sumo. I'm kinda surprised there haven't been any former Sumo wrestlers in the NFL.
I am also disappointed in the U.S performance but I do hope more countries choose American football over soccer. (I never got the hype of soccer as an Hispanic) 😬😬😬
@@cavebabybezerkers Because its a growing sport internationally. Tbh most teams are about at the US teams lvl, D3/Jr college, but Japan takes it more seriously than most teams in the league, partly due to culture but also because, unlike other teams like Mexico Brazil Panama and the EU teams, American Football is the 4th most popular sport in Japan so theirs just more effort put in.
There are some legit athletes at the lower levels of college ball (I know this because I’ve been involved in California JuCo ball for 7 years now). From what I’ve seen and heard, this performance comes down to a few factors; 1) Coaching and Play calling, which is apparent in the video. 2) American Football culture. There are a lot of coaches (specifically in college) who don’t want their recruits playing in All-Star games anymore because of the risk of injury. So even though there is a lot of talent at the lower levels, most of them are going to turn down offers to play in these tournaments because of outside influences. 3) Japan is really freaking good at American Football, which is a fact people just don’t understand. For reference, they’ve been playing it almost as long as they’ve been playing baseball and they’ve beaten more than a few times at that other “All American” sport. They also have a pro league that’s been around since the 70s.
To be fair the best U20 players in America are all getting ready for their college season absolutely zero of the top 500 available players are there that should tell you all you need to know
Not a bad idea- sumo's have excellent balance and quick feet. They are taught how to control their center of gravity and use an opponents momentum against them. There was an offensive lineman for New England in the 90's that was a solid guard, named Eugene Chung that credited sumo training in helping him be a better lineman. He was born in the US, but had family that introduced him to it at a young age. That helped him get a scholarship to play at Virginia Tech and then played in the NFL for 5 years. Sports Illustrated did a story on him a long time ago.
Honestly, I'm just surprised there's enough from outside the United States to put this whole thing together. Of all the major sports the US is into, football is one of those things I don't see get a lot of traction outside the United States. NFL tried with NFL Europe. Japan? It's Baseball for them and that sport has longer roots in that country. It was introduced in the mid-late 1800s. US lost, that's just how it goes. But for the sport of football, seeing interest from other countries is good.
People are complaining that it was the bottom of the barrel for team USA, so the players didn’t care, but I think it goes to show how “privileged” we are when it comes to football. I would’ve LOVED to play in this game, or any game for that matter, because I have pride for this sport. I played my ass off when it was just me and a couple of strangers from my neighborhood playing backyard football, much less in front of a national audience against players who live thousands of miles away from me. They should be embarrassed. They need to do better. Have some passion for the sport that others always dreamed to play, but can’t. They need to get their asses off of the couch and quit playing Madden and go out and do drills and work out and study. That’s the only way you get better.
Sorry brothers are better they will see no play Japan GTFOH bring that ass to the real players not a bunch of bums. They get no accolades for beating some scrubs. If they beat the Ravens then I’m impressed. The U.S has no choice but to send low level players. No top players would waist there time playing these scrubs.😂😂😂
Lot of people say it would be determental to the global game if qe took serious players, opposite is true imo. Yes an U20 packed with guys from Alabama or Michigan would destroy everyone but more people would be interested in these tournaments, just have to look at basketball and baseball when they started allowing NBA and MLB players into the Olympics and WBC led to a spike in interest globally.
The number of high school football players in Japan is 2616. The number of high school football players in the United States (2022 - 2023) is 1.03 million.
American football, as they call it in Japan, is a university club sport. It is a bit like Fight Club - no joke. They take it seriously. Companies even have teams that play in private leagues.
@Sid-gu5qk a lot kids are doing official visits right now, AAU track & other things are going on right now. Most Americans didn't know this was even a thing til last week. Plus most high rated kids don't wanna risk injury in a meaningless game nobody's gonna watch.
When you realize the fact that if you literally put IMG academy against these guys they would literally win 50-10, if you put Ohio state against these guys they would win 100-10 and if you put the ravens against these guys they would probably put up 150-200 points
That's gonna be loaded with recently retired players, I can't see any NFL teams allowing their players to participate in it tbh. Expect guys like Russell Wilson and maybe Tyreek Hill if he's really retiring after his contract is up
@@TheBigCberry Considering that he would be 34, Reek would either be retired or extremely washed by then. I wouldn't be surprised if Russ or maybe Kirk goes as the QB
Well, especially for a sport like this, a lot of the U20 athletes are focused on being healthy for the big college games rather than a somewhat niche tournament. If you're a freshman or sophomore on mostly any FBS team, International play isn't really worth the risk and reward. Potentially playing in Alabama vs Clemson is much more important with much more notoriety than any IFAF game. There's also the aspect of coaches probably not wanting their players to participate in an even they know isn't taken seriously and to potentially compromise their players with undesirable injuries, missing time at camp or in the film room, and having to coordinate with the IFAF administrators and coaches.
Congrats to Japan, but this isn’t too surprising with young teens/adults of equal size playing. At the 22+ age adult level, because of literal genetics, Japan doesn’t have as many 6’ 6” 300+ lb players as the U.S. Japan is the KING of baseball in the world right now, with masterful pitching, fielding, and batting skill. But in football, while skill and scheme matter, it’s hard to overcome the physical brutality of the sport. If a lineman has 50+ lbs on you or a receiver/cornerback runs .20 secs faster than you, there’s not much you can do.
They do NOT have better major leagues than the United States. Just because they win the WBC, doesn't mean they're the best in the world. Look at the U.S. WBC team...
@@dudydude3287 The best Japanese baseball players are better the best US players in baseball. There just isn't the depth of high caliber players in Japan compared to the US.
Bro I’m just imagining Mahomes to Jefferson as the score at the end of the first quarter is 526-3 (cause of a lucky field goal) to some poor African team 😂😂😂😂😂
Don't worry, America, Canada cleaned up your mess again like D-day. But if it makes you feel better, you can take credit for the win like you do about D-day.
All I can say about USA getting BTFO'd by Japan in American Football is... "Oh you're the red, white and blue, oh the funny things you do! America, America, this is you!"
Why is anyone surprised that America lost? All the top players this age are either gearing up for their senior year in high school, or are already at a D1 school. They aren't going to play a much lesser talented team in Japan. The only people we could send over are D3 kids and maybe a few D1 walk-ons at best.
They embarrassed no one. These are guys who can't even make it in division 2 college football. If they played a team of our best players, most of them would be in a coma.
Hmmm did we sacrifice these guys in order to justify selecting a Dream Team 2.0 next time??? Are they worrying about the pushback they would receive from absolutely obliterating these teams with an actual talented roster??? I’m no conspiracy theorist but I have to find some way to rationalize a complete beat down from a country that not only beat us in the championship game of the World Baseball Classic, but now has beat us in “American” football. I wonder what’s next, a cheeseburger competition? Geeeeezus!
Watch us put out a top team next time lol. Even then, a lot of international teams play together way longer and have better chemistry. But it will be interesting to see what happens if the USA puts its real top U21 team in next time.
Former CFL coach and a handful of 3 star recruits. Let's be honest, we know it's not America's best players under 20. America will never send their best. Why? 4-5 star commits are in off season training and camps already. There's no way they risk their NIL earning potential in a nothing tournament. Love that the game is growing and move on. This is not America's first loss in this tourney anyway.
USA Football’s U.S. National Team boasts a wide selection of accomplished alumni at the professional and college levels, including former NFL All-Pros Trevon Diggs, Tyrann Mathieu, Jordan Poyer, Jonathan Taylor and Wyatt Teller and first round selections Rashod Bateman, Mac Jones, Kenny Pickett, Alijah Vera-Tucker and Chase Young. Many former D1 stars and current NFL Players played in this tournament
@@matthewwelsh294 And yet none of those guys would be able to play under the current regulations. Pretty sure they aren't allowing D1 guys. So I'm just going to take this as a weird flex of your ability to google and put together a list with Mac Jones and Kenny Picket on it in a positive light. Team USA does and will continue not to invest in this tourney in the future. However, they did their part to grow the game globally and that's great.
Wether it's Baseball, Basketball or now Football, somehow it's a repeating pattern: US sends the 2nd/3rd Squad, gets mauled goes "If we had send our best we woulda won easily"...mby at some point just take those competitions serious 😇
@@dannydonnelly8198 I have no doubts about that since football is alot more of a fringe sport outside of the US than Baseball or Basketball. But still pointless for the US to get annoyed about it after the fact. Can't disrespect your opponents and then wonder why things go south.

To be clear, this is officially the IFAF U-20 Men’s World Championship tournament (the game we see here was a semifinal). The rules for U.S. squad selection are highly restrictive, in order to make the competition . . . actually competitive. (And even at that, some squads, like Brazil and Panama, end up utterly outclassed anyway.) Basically, if you fielded a true U.S. U-20 all-star team, with top underclassmen from D-I colleges, they’d absolutely kill everyone else. And that would do nothing for the growth of the game internationally, which is what the IFAF (and any truly thinking fan of the game) wants.
Yeah, there was poor play by the American side, but it looks mostly like the squad have not been practicing together long, nor working long with their coaches. There’s also the context that in international football, while the very best American players are just leaps and bounds beyond the talent in other nations, there are a few countries where American football is taken seriously, and played with some creditable competence: most notably Canada, of course, but also Mexico, Japan, and Germany. In the IFAF Senior Men’s World Championships, while even the sharply age-limited (and non-professional) U.S. squads reliably beat those nations decisively, one can say they at least belong on the same field as the American team.
So, the U.S.’s getting beaten by the Japan side here is not a shock. I’m not getting worked up over it, and if it encourages a bit more international interest in the sport, all well and good.
you should definitely look up how they recruit for the team
*Step 1: DIGITAL COMBINE - Submit your information, measurables and highlight to the GMTM Digital Combine.*
Step 2: INVITE & COMMIT - USA Football personnel will invite athletes to the team, covering: benefits, expectations and team logistics like athlete membership and participant fees.
*Step 3: VIRTUAL DEVELOPMENT - Athletes get virtual and on-demand access to X's & O's, Technical Training, Mental Performance, Strength & Conditioning, Nutrition & Hydration, and more.*
Step 4: TRAINING CAMP - The U.S. National Team arrives in Edmonton, Canada to prepare for competition from June 14-19.
Step 5: INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION - The U.S. National Team steps onto the gridiron to compete against Canada, Japan, Austria, Australia, Panama and Brazil. Our mission is Gold.
I 100% agree. It’s kind of cool seeing other countries be competitive against even our D3 guys. Americans have been playing their whole lives, along with football being a major part of our culture. Imagine the talent we would see in the NFL if it truly went global.
In a sea of dumb, uneducated, ignorant takes, this is the correct one.
@@Chunkyb514 We are for Punters and some Kickoff kickers because of new rules in NFL we see Australian Rules Players from Australia and some Rugby players from top 13-man Rugby areas in World and are seeing a few big guys from Non USA Samoa who first played in NCAA or Canada Universities as a walk on originally.
Keep in mind that U20 (under 20 YO) is what we'd call in most American competitions 19U (19 YO and under), since you're 19 until your 20th birthday.
American football's popularity in a nation depends largely on rugby's *not* being very popular there. Japan's exceptional, since Rugby Union is a fairly big deal there, but of the countries mentioned, rugby's not that big a deal in either Mexico or Germany.
When you have two sets of non-elite athletes, one group of them are dedicated, work hard and give their all during the game. The other group go through the motions, look like they don't care, and don't even look prepared to play. The results shouldn't be a surprise.
I expect nothing less from Japan.
America really needs to get out of their ego. You want to be the best? Then show the world and dominate. Losses like this are a byproduct of ego and individualism instead of teamwork and tenacity.
@@troybaxterthey’re also the by product of garbage tier talent. IMG academy would have mopped the floor, an elite D1 football team would laughing by how lopsided the halftime score would have been.
@@fabiantaveras8458that’s the kind of narcissistic attitude that leads to these kinds of blowouts. You missed the whole point.
Who's the American coach, this was atrocious football by USA. We could hadd a better chance with a 13 yo pop Warner team.
@@colonialstraits1069No, it’s not. Because if they sent actual prospects to play in the IFAF the outcome would be different.
As a Japanese, I was surprised that these IFAF games was even recognized by an Americans.
I mean Japan is a client state and the US did help rebuild it so if Japan fails the Us fails.
Secondly, it's in the interest of the states to encourage and support IFAF, it means more people watching, meaning more people are playing, meaning theirs more foreign-born competition, meaning theirs more people being forged into heroes, meaning they will create hero kids we can fight for fun, there's not point having a war with yourself it gets boring, it also means new good geneseed that can immigrate here too add to the pile so we can create a group of diverse people created from the best geneseed from the globe as fast as possible to surpass current human limits and conquer the stars.

@@ricknelms you truly think it’s because they had white DBs lol
Here's some trivia -- in the first two IFAF Championships (1999 and 2003), Japan beat Mexico in the final game.
The US didn't participate until 2007, to be clear.
Before anyone overreacts, please hear me out. 1st, my background - I am an American who has lived in Japan for nearly 40 years. I know Japanese culture, language and thinking VERY well. I have been going to watch the Japanese semi-pro X League football games for 15 seasons now. They got good players who play in the CFL, but they are not main players in the CFL, but rather 3rd string and or practice squad members. 2nd - This is an Under 20 international tournament, not a top level tournament. 3rd - This Japanese team consists of a mixture of Japanese kids who have lived most of their lives in the USA, and, American kids who have a Japanese ethnic background, and, are mixed race kids with dual Japanese and American citizenship. Only some on this Japanese team have true blue Japanese citizenship as in Japanese guys born and raised in Japan only. 4th - This so-called American team consists of guys who at best may play at the NCAA division 3 level, but I suspect some or most of them are at the junior college tech level, or, are guys who played high school ball and this is their last rodeo. Seriously, but look at how out of shape some of those guys are and their lack of athleticism. Plus the coaching on the U.S. side is miserable. 5th - In saying all that, the Japanese are getting better at football, period. There is no doubt about it. I suspect it won't be too long to where we will see a Japanese guy from Japan who will play in the NFL. It may or may not happen in my lifetime, but it is coming. I guarantee. it. 6th - The Japanese never give up. Never. One should never under any circumstances underestimate the Japanese, ever. The Japanese could be getting blown out in any kind of sporting event but you would never know it because they never give up until the very end of the game, ever. What that means is that we are witnessing live from year to year, decade to decade how the Japanese have been getting better and better at football. Decades ago it was just a dream of the Japanese to have a Japanese citizen to play in the NFL and now it is becoming a reality. Again, it will happen, but it is just a matter of time. 6th - If the U. S. had put a respectable team out there on the field, we would see different results. But the fact of the matter is that the U.S. is hodge podge at best and the Japanese team looked really good at this Under 20 level. They looked sharp, practiced, serious, and ready to play. The U.S. looked abysmal. Yet, in saying that despite the U.S. being a ragtag team, they still scored 20 on a better Japanese team. 6th - So what does that mean? It means, as I said before, that that Japanese have CERTAINLY improved at playing football over the years, but I can guarantee that if the U.S. had put a well organized, well-coached USA team out there that the U.S team would win handily. There is not question about it. But, it is what it is and the Japanese are taking this tournament (as all tournaments of any sport ) seriously and the U.S. is not. Japan deserved this win and the U.S. had better re-think their approach to any internamtional tournament that we play in. ( I am sick and tired of the U.S. putting out an inferior product when it comes to football, baseball to give the opposing teams a leg up. It is frankly nauseating. )
Those American players aren’t going make it in the nfl . I heard they were rejected . The game wasn’t on tv in Japan
I was getting ready to laugh at the uselessness of this tournament until you told me my Canadian team slaughtered their opponent... now this tournament is my world! 😂
Number 1 for Japan was a dawg
He should get some scholarships if he’s around that age
He could play!!!
Yes how is nobody else talking about that. He has the peak safety build and is clearly a baller. Dude could absolutely play D1
Eyeshield 21 in real life.
Glad I wasn’t the only one thinking this.
How are we Americans supposed to compete when the Japanese players are out there pulling out Spear Tackles and Devil Bat Ghosts?!
Can you also analyze US losing to Austria for the bronze ? This was a great video. It's about time the US starts taking the international game seriously
Well you gotta gave my former student #4 Team Captain Toby Linscott credit for his receiving skills a 65 yd and a TD even though he is actual and All Star quarterback for his University. Team Japan was well coached and i pray will take the Gold Sunday against Canada. Gambatte Nihon!!!
It was mentioned in the comments that Japan’s athletes may not be the “best” but will work extremely hard and give their absolutely best effort in games. We saw the results of that effort. Good job Japan.
Relax, this is just the universe setting things straight and even after USA beat Pakistan in Cricket. To be totally honest, that was huge, more so than 1980 Lake Placid.
Pakistan will wreck USA in football
The US team only met for the first time six days before the tournament. That is not enough time to get a team together with kids from completely different systems and it showed.
Seriously? And they tried to use the fly sweep??! The fly offense can be devastating when they have the timing for it down, but it's a really poor choice when you have only 6 days.
This is true and the roster is full of players that are unranked or 1 or 2 Stars
Also, a lot of retired nfl players wouldve done it if they knew about it. The coach is a random high school coach. It doesn't make sense
@@JennaJennaFoFenna Retired from the NFL and still less than 20 years old?
@@goodmaro I saw retired nfl players saying they would've coached or helped out. The coach is a random high school coach. They also said they could've just sent IMG Academy.

Throw in Myles Garrett, TJ Watt and Mahommes also lol.
this is an Under 20 league though
best we could do is make a team of D1 freshmen and five star recruits
@@PhantasyStarved They would wreck the whole league 😂
@@PhantasyStarvedIf you're a D1 player, will you risk injury though to go this? I mean D1 can make millions in the future.
honestly, I would not be surprised to see Japan field a really good offensive line, given their culture Sumo. I'm kinda surprised there haven't been any former Sumo wrestlers in the NFL.
Wtf this was held in my town?!? Edmonton, Alberta Canada lol. That's weird.
Yeah, there was basically zero promotion for this.
I've never seen this shit in my life
When Japan starts putting sumo wrestlers on their offensive line, it's over.
I am throughly impressed with how well the Japanese team was coached and their caliber of athletes. Kudos to them

The world : no shit Sherlock, that's how it works. 😂😂
Why was the game in Canada
@@AbimaelLopez-hz3qqso what. Why were them bums even selected
@@cavebabybezerkers Because its a growing sport internationally. Tbh most teams are about at the US teams lvl, D3/Jr college, but Japan takes it more seriously than most teams in the league, partly due to culture but also because, unlike other teams like Mexico Brazil Panama and the EU teams, American Football is the 4th most popular sport in Japan so theirs just more effort put in.
When I saw a yt guy playing cornerback I knew we were in for a long day….
A Sanford and son reference lmbao .. but so much FACTS lol
Your commentary on white DBs absolutely had me in bits.
Hrs right ✅️
The left and right tackles are just throwing people around in the air hahahaha
There are some legit athletes at the lower levels of college ball (I know this because I’ve been involved in California JuCo ball for 7 years now).
From what I’ve seen and heard, this performance comes down to a few factors;
1) Coaching and Play calling, which is apparent in the video.
2) American Football culture. There are a lot of coaches (specifically in college) who don’t want their recruits playing in All-Star games anymore because of the risk of injury. So even though there is a lot of talent at the lower levels, most of them are going to turn down offers to play in these tournaments because of outside influences.
3) Japan is really freaking good at American Football, which is a fact people just don’t understand. For reference, they’ve been playing it almost as long as they’ve been playing baseball and they’ve beaten more than a few times at that other “All American” sport. They also have a pro league that’s been around since the 70s.
No we just sent lesser bums on purpose like some clowns
To be fair the best U20 players in America are all getting ready for their college season absolutely zero of the top 500 available players are there that should tell you all you need to know

@@troyfrei2962 I would actually cry 😭 atleast we have Arthur Smith now
Sumo wrestlers on that line
Not a bad idea- sumo's have excellent balance and quick feet. They are taught how to control their center of gravity and use an opponents momentum against them. There was an offensive lineman for New England in the 90's that was a solid guard, named Eugene Chung that credited sumo training in helping him be a better lineman. He was born in the US, but had family that introduced him to it at a young age. That helped him get a scholarship to play at Virginia Tech and then played in the NFL for 5 years. Sports Illustrated did a story on him a long time ago.
@@rolmodel12. no doubt. Lot of sumo wrestlers could be natural o-linemen.
It's pretty simple. It was Japans best vs. nobodies from the US.
Honestly, I'm just surprised there's enough from outside the United States to put this whole thing together. Of all the major sports the US is into, football is one of those things I don't see get a lot of traction outside the United States. NFL tried with NFL Europe.
Japan? It's Baseball for them and that sport has longer roots in that country. It was introduced in the mid-late 1800s.
US lost, that's just how it goes. But for the sport of football, seeing interest from other countries is good.
I just subbed to you. Love your stuff.
Sounds like the coaching staff needs to be overhauled
Only a few Brothas on the team so I knew this was not the top dudes.
The brothas were the extra useless weight
StyleswithCourtney Both of em ???
People are complaining that it was the bottom of the barrel for team USA, so the players didn’t care, but I think it goes to show how “privileged” we are when it comes to football. I would’ve LOVED to play in this game, or any game for that matter, because I have pride for this sport. I played my ass off when it was just me and a couple of strangers from my neighborhood playing backyard football, much less in front of a national audience against players who live thousands of miles away from me. They should be embarrassed. They need to do better. Have some passion for the sport that others always dreamed to play, but can’t. They need to get their asses off of the couch and quit playing Madden and go out and do drills and work out and study. That’s the only way you get better.
My high school varsity team would’ve competed better than this, and I coach for a school that allows kids from approximately one square mile…
I hope some of those Japanese kids get a chance to play at the next level.
Sorry brothers are better they will see no play Japan GTFOH bring that ass to the real players not a bunch of bums. They get no accolades for beating some scrubs. If they beat the Ravens then I’m impressed. The U.S has no choice but to send low level players. No top players would waist there time playing these scrubs.😂😂😂
They do have college football in Japan
How are people embarrassed about something no one even knows exists smh
Still. The embarrassment comes from the total disrespect of the roster put together. It's a sick joke. Kinda like the white house 🏠
Lot of people say it would be determental to the global game if qe took serious players, opposite is true imo. Yes an U20 packed with guys from Alabama or Michigan would destroy everyone but more people would be interested in these tournaments, just have to look at basketball and baseball when they started allowing NBA and MLB players into the Olympics and WBC led to a spike in interest globally.
I like the American DBs "Miami Miracle" Gronk impression 5:23
when they lose, you can hear all kinds of crap and reasons
Yoichi Hiruma and Kobayakawa Sena would be proud.

Did I just see "0th and 0" on the screen?
Going into this video, I expected Japan to be strong at speed positions (e.g. WR, CB, FS, RB) but struggle on the line of scrimmage...
Did they take down C.J. and Justin Jefferson? I done see Aaron Donald on the field. 😂😂😂

If we actually put our top dudes on the field, it’d be like Georgia Tech vs Cumberland
I didn’t even know of this particular competition but it means the sport is growing.

American football, as they call it in Japan, is a university club sport. It is a bit like Fight Club - no joke. They take it seriously. Companies even have teams that play in private leagues.

When you realize the fact that if you literally put IMG academy against these guys they would literally win 50-10, if you put Ohio state against these guys they would win 100-10 and if you put the ravens against these guys they would probably put up 150-200 points
The 2028 Olympic flag football team better be only NFL players - and I mean *ONLY* NFL players!
The obvious flipside is who will or won't volunteer. And out of those who do, how will the general public react when someone is left off.
That's gonna be loaded with recently retired players, I can't see any NFL teams allowing their players to participate in it tbh. Expect guys like Russell Wilson and maybe Tyreek Hill if he's really retiring after his contract is up

@@aarond23widener what!?

Why does America never send its best players to compete in international games. It doesn't make any sense someone please explain.
Well, especially for a sport like this, a lot of the U20 athletes are focused on being healthy for the big college games rather than a somewhat niche tournament. If you're a freshman or sophomore on mostly any FBS team, International play isn't really worth the risk and reward. Potentially playing in Alabama vs Clemson is much more important with much more notoriety than any IFAF game. There's also the aspect of coaches probably not wanting their players to participate in an even they know isn't taken seriously and to potentially compromise their players with undesirable injuries, missing time at camp or in the film room, and having to coordinate with the IFAF administrators and coaches.
Now imagine if America decided to send NFL players to that game, we'd be talking about the U.S embarrassed Japan
I don't think the NFL have any U20 players my boy. The youngest is right now is 20.
@@kidn00b1 I know, but I'm just saying

@7:44 i'm sorry can we talk about the play japan made here to make sure that ball goes into the end zone? that team was just flat out better coached
Congrats to Japan, but this isn’t too surprising with young teens/adults of equal size playing. At the 22+ age adult level, because of literal genetics, Japan doesn’t have as many 6’ 6” 300+ lb players as the U.S.
Japan is the KING of baseball in the world right now, with masterful pitching, fielding, and batting skill. But in football, while skill and scheme matter, it’s hard to overcome the physical brutality of the sport. If a lineman has 50+ lbs on you or a receiver/cornerback runs .20 secs faster than you, there’s not much you can do.
They do NOT have better major leagues than the United States. Just because they win the WBC, doesn't mean they're the best in the world. Look at the U.S. WBC team...
The USA focus' on domestic leagues FIRST, then the international stage. "King of baseball" is anything not named MLB
They could compete in weight-limited Sprint Football.
@@dudydude3287 The best Japanese baseball players are better the best US players in baseball. There just isn't the depth of high caliber players in Japan compared to the US.

"Oh you're the red, white and blue, oh the funny things you do! America, America, this is you!"

🤔
Why is anyone surprised that America lost? All the top players this age are either gearing up for their senior year in high school, or are already at a D1 school. They aren't going to play a much lesser talented team in Japan. The only people we could send over are D3 kids and maybe a few D1 walk-ons at best.
They embarrassed no one. These are guys who can't even make it in division 2 college football. If they played a team of our best players, most of them would be in a coma.
Hmmm did we sacrifice these guys in order to justify selecting a Dream Team 2.0 next time??? Are they worrying about the pushback they would receive from absolutely obliterating these teams with an actual talented roster??? I’m no conspiracy theorist but I have to find some way to rationalize a complete beat down from a country that not only beat us in the championship game of the World Baseball Classic, but now has beat us in “American” football. I wonder what’s next, a cheeseburger competition? Geeeeezus!
Calling the same run sweep play over and over is like my coach in EA college football road to glory calling the same running play over and over again.
Canada still won the Gold Medal!
The scoreboard operator was pretty sloppy, too lol
THAT OFFENSIVE LINE WAS HORRIBLE...... THE COACHING WAS HORRIBLE...... THAT IS SO HARD TO WATCH
Watch us put out a top team next time lol. Even then, a lot of international teams play together way longer and have better chemistry. But it will be interesting to see what happens if the USA puts its real top U21 team in next time.
Former CFL coach and a handful of 3 star recruits. Let's be honest, we know it's not America's best players under 20. America will never send their best. Why? 4-5 star commits are in off season training and camps already. There's no way they risk their NIL earning potential in a nothing tournament. Love that the game is growing and move on. This is not America's first loss in this tourney anyway.
USA Football’s U.S. National Team boasts a wide selection of accomplished alumni at the professional and college levels, including former NFL All-Pros Trevon Diggs, Tyrann Mathieu, Jordan Poyer, Jonathan Taylor and Wyatt Teller and first round selections Rashod Bateman, Mac Jones, Kenny Pickett, Alijah Vera-Tucker and Chase Young. Many former D1 stars and current NFL Players played in this tournament
@@matthewwelsh294 And yet none of those guys would be able to play under the current regulations. Pretty sure they aren't allowing D1 guys. So I'm just going to take this as a weird flex of your ability to google and put together a list with Mac Jones and Kenny Picket on it in a positive light. Team USA does and will continue not to invest in this tourney in the future. However, they did their part to grow the game globally and that's great.
Luke Gatsey must be the head coach for running a play six times in one game😂😂😂
Wether it's Baseball, Basketball or now Football, somehow it's a repeating pattern: US sends the 2nd/3rd Squad, gets mauled goes "If we had send our best we woulda won easily"...mby at some point just take those competitions serious 😇
Fairpoint but this is honestly not even in the top 10 squads that could be formed from available players of this age in US.
@@dannydonnelly8198 I have no doubts about that since football is alot more of a fringe sport outside of the US than Baseball or Basketball. But still pointless for the US to get annoyed about it after the fact. Can't disrespect your opponents and then wonder why things go south.
