"Ken Okawa, 30, said he was happy to bring this tradition to his very first
World Cup match as he stooped down to collect discarded cups and other
garbage from the floor around his seat

Japanese fans celebrated their team's 4-0 victory over Tunisia in the
1,000th match in World Cup history on Saturday by staying behind at
Monterrey?s stadium to collect rubbish from the stands.

The practice, known in Japan as *gomi hiroi,* reflects an emphasis on
taking responsibility for shared spaces.


Ken Okawa, 30, said he was happy to bring this tradition to his very first
World Cup match as he stooped down to collect discarded cups and other
garbage from the floor around his seat.


'It's common sense in Japan,' said Ichiro Oyo, 27."
