Japanese fans marched through the rows picking up the rubbish and placing it into plastic bags.

They also collected the flags that were dropped at the stadium by the enthusiastic crowd, adding that "these command respect".

The Japanese first gained a worldwide reputation for doing this four years ago at the 2018 World Cup in Russia after a Japan's match against Colombia in 2018.
Netizens around the globe were impressed by their readiness to clean up the stadium after the match.
