Beautiful game is fifth best loved sport in Japan

According to Japan’s Daily Yomiuri, football (soccer) is the fifth best loved sports after the likes of baseball,marathons,ekiden or road relay races. However, 62% of the respondents were interested in the World Cup Finals that will be starting in June. However, I believe this statistics is only true for Japanese people over 30’s. Most of the younger generation still love the beautiful game first.
