A Japan fan has gone viral for his epic meltdown after losing to Brazil in the Round of 32 The Samurai Blue scored first and took a 1-0 lead into half time against the Seleção But a stoppage time winner by Gabriel Martinelli sealed the fate of the Japanese teamThe fan, who was wearing a blue home shirt and even had his hair dyed blue, yelled as he angrily took off what appeared to be either a jacket or kimono.Other Brazil fans tried to wrap him in their national flag in some show of condolence, but the fan was having none of it.He continued yelling into the air as cameras captured a mob of friendly Brazilians eventually surrounded him with hugs in a show of comradery.Social media took the clip and ran with it, pointing out the passion of the fan. ‘imagine going through the worst pain in your life and the people around you are celebrating the thing that caused you the pain,’ read one comment on X.Another comment said, ‘Painfull to watch !! JAPAN WAS ONE OF THE BEST TEAM THIS WORLD CUP !! MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS TO THEM.’ ‘that’s honestly kinda funny seeing fans from different countries just vibe together,’ wrote another user.One user posted, ‘I was dying laughing when I saw this live lmao instantly raised my mood again after the loss.’ However, this was likely staged. The broadcast showed the fan passing his phone to a person in front of him with his device set up to record his reaction.While this was surely one of the more entertaining moments of the Round of 32 so far, it may not be authentic at all.Just moments before the broadcast captured the fan’s reaction, they showed that same fan handing his phone to a Brazil fan in front of him.The Japan fan had a smile on his face and held his phone horizontally, as if to have the person in front of him record his reaction.While the reaction may have been faked, the result wasn’t as Brazil have once again qualified for the Round of 16.They will take on the winner of the match between the Ivory Coast and Norway in the next phase on July 5 at New York New Jersey Stadium.
