The Legacy
Philippe Troussier managed Japan during the 2002 World Cup as the nation co-hosted the tournament with South Korea. The side advanced from a group featuring Belgium, Russia, and Tunisia before a narrow defeat to Turkey in the Round of 16. Hidetoshi Nakata directed the midfield play alongside Junichi Inamoto and Shinji Ono, while Masashi Nakayama provided experience in the attack. This Adidas away kit reflects the campaign where Japan reached the knockout stage of a World Cup for the first time in their history.
Key Moment
