1998 World Cup Japan Home Blue Retro Soccer Jerseys Shirt
This is a classic jersey---Japan Home Jersey Retro 1998 by Asics
Asics Japan jersey
This Japan 1998 jerseyrepresents a special moment for Japanese supporters, as their team qualified for the World Cup for the first time ever, making the Japanese join the biggest football celebrations on the world stage.
There are small cracks on the flame logos on the sleeves and Japan letters on the back. This is the fully-customizable short-sleeve home kit for the Japan 1998 World Cup campaign.
Japan uses blue and white rather than red and white due to a superstition. Japan used blue shirts in a 3–2 victory over Sweden in the first game of its maiden major international competition, the 1936 Summer Olympics. When Japan was coached by Kenzo Yokoyama (1988–1992) the kits were red and white, matching the colours of Japan's national flag. After failures at 1990 FIFA World Cup and 1992 Summer Olympics qualifications, the red shirt was scrapped.
It is important to know that Japan was not a major football force until the end of 1980s with its team just a small and amateur team. Since the 1990s, Japanese football became fully professionalized, and Japan has quickly emerged as one of the most successful teams in Asia.
However, the Japanese didn’t fare well at all in that World Cup, losing every single one of their matches and crashing out of the group stage. They lost 1-0 in the opening match to Argentina, 1-0 to Croatia, then 2-1 to Jamaica in their last match. It was a tough group to get out of, however, as the Croatians finished 3rd that World Cup and Argentina is a superpower. Moreover, they played the Jamaicans after being demoralized from their first two matches, which they lost narrowly by 1-0, which is a very respectable performance. We also have the spectacular goalkeeper Japan 1998 jersey with the Kawaguchi imprint on our store.
