It says a lot about the person Kazu Miura that he's still playing at this age and everyone seems to still regard him with smiles. I've not heard anyone talk about him as some hanger-on who can't stop playing, but instead he's someone who just has a love of the game and loves to help people enjoy the game. He's not the player he once was, but he's someone who just has an undying enjoyment of it and just likes making people happy. Here's to King Kazu the Panda.
Definite malice. I'm a fan of baseball, but having grown up in the US in the 80's as a soccer player, I know the feeling of playing a game that very few people around you understand or respect. Great video and tribute!
This channel is way better than Raymar's. Man actually highlights players, shares football history and doesn't focus on popularity or what's hot. He teaches you about the history of the sport and the players who played a part in making it what it is.
Raymar was better when he was doing less frequent vids and not focusing on brand deals. Now he just finds a load of ways to compliment a player for 10 mins.
I'm really proud that he played for my Santos FC. Along with the Japanese GOAT, we had in our club the historic GOAT Pelé, the Queen of football Marta, the GOAT of futsal Falcão and Neymar. Cheers from Santos Kazu, we're proud of having you in our glorious history
There are now players who were *born* after his debut who are retiring, and they're even in an age where it would seem "normal" for a player to retire (mid-30s)
Miura earns my respect big time. Still playing till this day and will only call it quits when he's ready. A rare trait of players who plays for the love of the game.
Thank you for making this video. It brought back memories when I watched him as a child on tv during the 1998 World Cup qualifiers. I was in awe of him he was my hero alongwith with Hidetoshi Nakata and Ali Daei.
As an outsider it always seemed that Japan's Squad had some special players with unique stories/vitas - I have special memories with Shunsuke Nakamura in the UEFA cup for Celtic.
Hey Mr. Lucas, Ive been watching your videos since the world cup in qatar and i want to thank you for helping me get through some tough times. your weekly uploads gave me something to look forward to when things got rough and bleak and it would really make me happy hearing your voice and your enthusiasm and glee when you talk about these players and ill feel so happy when i get a notification that youve uploaded and i always feel so glad and happy when you begin your videos with your iconic line: "So, listen to this..." makes me so excited for the next video already ive been watching your videos religiously and ive never missed a single week since i started and i honestly dont know how else to express my gratitude... please never stop uploading these videos and never stop doing what youre doing, because as your channel's bio says you truly do have the best football documentaries on youtube. God bless you Mr. Lucas, and I hope you are doing well and you are healthy ♥
Kazu should be immortalized as a legend in future football games. Konami has already made several tributes for Kazu in the PES/eFootball Franchise, ironic when he played even before the game was called PES. I think the only player left who has been in the ISS Era, Winning Eleven Era, PES Era, and eFootball Era. 😂
King Kazu laid the foundation now it's up to Japan to chase the World Cup just like in Captain Tsubasa. Also, as far as I know the 22 World Cup is Japan's best showing v Germany. They also put in a valiant effort against former finalists in the form of Croatia.
I hadn't actually realised how cute he was as a younger man 😅 Thank you for making a proper appraisal of the never-ending career of Kazuyoshi Miura. You know, I was about to write that he might retire at 60 - but then I thought, no. He loves the game too much. And nothing else really matters. Where there is love, there is always a way.
I knew when this video is uploaded,I knew about this Japanese legend Kazuyoshi Miura sir who is still playing and I fully respect him which is where I must be playing my favourite sport up to his final playing career,good friends!!!He is a living legend in the world football,not just the Japanese football and I am extremely so happy and proud to see him continuously playing with his extremely so strong fitness,good friends!!!LONG LIVE,KAZUYOSHI MIURA SIR!!!🏋♂️
I don't want to upset you but he is not a legend and probably most of the football fans will agree with me. I totally didn't knew who he is/was, up until now this video showed up you may be a fan of him but he is not a legend. Maybe at Japan but not in the world of football
To be called a legend you have to be far more better than just a good player better than everyone else at your era just like pele,cruyff, maradona,both ronaldo the R9 and CR7,messi etc. For example Neymar and TBH he is far better than kazu, no offense i do like ney he is a joy to watch one of my favourite player but not a legend. Why!! ? Because he still ain't done anything special/great to be consider as legend,for me Neymar is just a good player with great talent and skills something which every players wants and a great career something which most of the players wants to have and we can only dream of.
@@tasogoba2409 Please calm down good friend,I have said that he is a legend is because,he has served for many years,mainly in his domestic football in Japan but underrated in the world of football!!!:-D
@@tasogoba2409 They are legends of course with the future legends for Ronaldo boss and Messi boss but Neymar boss is 31 years old this,good friend!!!He is though,a future legend and doesn't matter whether a male footballer is a great talent and skills,when he plays his games routinely well for years,than the legendary status will be installed to him,good friend!!!🏋️♂️
another amazing video by you! I saw your channel around a year ago, so I’m not a long time fan, but I’ve watched plenty of your videos while I eat. It’s awesome learning about players from years before the late 90s (which a lot of the players I know well are from the late 90s, besides from legends before) so it’s always nice learning about footballers I haven’t heard about, or remember players I haven’t seen in a while. you should post more on your second channel too! I like the more face to face content!
1:04 it’s not a misconception, rather, the author of the series didn’t have Tubasa based on any real life players but has since said that the character is most similar to King Kazu
Kazu es una leyenda viviente del fútbol porque ha jugado por casi 40 años a este hermoso deporte y debido a que supo sobreponerse de la gran decepción que sufrió al no ser convocado al mundial de Francia 98. En cambio, para muchos jugar durante 15 años les resulta demasiado y normalmente se retiran del fútbol profesional apenas cumplen 33 años o menos, alegando que las concentraciones eran insoportables. En verdad., puede que ya no sea el mismo, pero pocos pueden ser disciplinados durante tanto tiempo. Simplemente es ejemplar.
I saw him play v England at Wembley in 1995. He met Sir Stanley Matthews there who was presented to both teams. As you say, he would go on to break Matthews's record...
Would love a Vidic video, or the great late Sinisa Mihailovic who just passed away. Scored a hat trick of free kicks in a match, and won the Champions League with Red Star Belgrade golden generation.
Well baseball was not invented in the US , they stole it from us romanians, it was called "oina" and was invented by us in 1364. And yes baseball it's a sad copy
Absolutely incredible story! The man is a legend and he did so much to help Japan become what they are today! Japan is easily a top 20 if not even higher country in futbol and they will only keep rising! Obrigado Kazu
@daily dose of football Actually in the first Fifa International game for SEGA, the players names were not licensed yet so all the names in the countries given were made up and Miura's name isn't in it. I would know cos I still own the game and yes I have followed Miura since he started his stint in Genoa back in 1994
Btw This Guy does a Cameo in Kamen Rider Revice, thru the entire series the main character has a picture of him in his wall, and in the last episode the guy himself appears on the show
I want to mention that that futsal World Cup wasn’t an afterthought as though not scoring he played every game as Japan squeaked qualification to the round of 16 from a group with two of the great futsal powers in Portugal and Brazil, even drawing the former
This legend is only 2 yrs younger than my father and he is 1yr older than my mother, and Im 35... But everytime I show some clips or news about him to my father, he immediately reacts to him as "This guy is crazy, nuts at least!" xD Its like everytime he sees him he gets complexes because of his endurance and commitment to the game... And I also think its envy a little bit cause my father was also a player and a coach afterwards... xD
The agony of Doha was against Iraq, not Iran, when Japan narrowly missed qualifying for what would have been its first World Cup in 1994. Japan beat Iran in 1997 to qualify for the 1998 World Cup in France. The man is a legend and pioneer of Japanese football. Hail King Kazu!

❤❤
He is a champion 💪
Well Gigi Buffon Is 45 and still playing

Great story, great content as always Lucaś, keep up the amazing work bro, I really enjoy your videos 🎉
Amazing and beautiful story! ❤
I saw him play v England at Wembley in 1995. He met Sir Stanley Matthews there who was presented to both teams. As you say, he would go on to break Matthews's record...
His story is wild. Im really sad he never took any of the overseas club opportunities he had but I’m glad he’s still happy and going strong m.
Great video for Japanese football, Obrigado mesmo🇯🇵❤️
Would love a Vidic video, or the great late Sinisa Mihailovic who just passed away. Scored a hat trick of free kicks in a match, and won the Champions League with Red Star Belgrade golden generation.

Kazu é o Oliver Tsubasa original
King Kazu the 🐐
He looks really good for his age too.
Dinamo Zagreb remembers and loves Miura.
He's doing what we wish a lot of great players would do having fun with it as he gets seasoned
Absolutely incredible story! The man is a legend and he did so much to help Japan become what they are today! Japan is easily a top 20 if not even higher country in futbol and they will only keep rising! Obrigado Kazu
This guy is like an anime character proving that players suck at the game when he is older a better. Bluelock should have taken notes.

Still waiting for the Abo trika video I hope you are having fun preparing the video ❤
When it looked like Kazu would finally retire, he shocked the world by moving to a Portuguese second division team to develop his football
it couldnt be ibrahimović as he is an exciting young talent
Damn hes playing as long as I've lived 😅😅😅.
Gotta love the passion though.
He was playing bad in Croatia...
That was his problem!
But I have 100% respect for him and his Karriere
Do a video on Dwight Yorke please

Forza Genoa! I have his autograph at home.
Great story a Japanese legend. But it's a shame Europe never worked out for him Long live king Kazu
