“Football is a sport of solidarity that unites people in good times and bad.”
Agreed. It was silly for Japan to pull out in the first place, as the initial reason for doing so was cited as a need to help with the situation (for which many people asked the obvious, "How are the soccer players going to help on the ground?"). The reasons were changed later, but still... it's good they are going.
