The Ivory Coast came from behind to beat Japan 2-1 in their first 2014 World Cup match, but despite the tough loss, the Japanese fans in attendance at the Arena Pernambuco in Recife, Brazil still made time after the final whistle to clean up after themselves.

科特迪瓦在世界杯首秀中以2:1逆袭日本。虽然日本队失利，但还可以看到累西腓(Recife)的伯南布哥体育场（the Arena Pemambuco）上，在终场哨响之后，日本球迷仍耐心的捡拾看台垃圾。

As the stadium emptied, some Blue Samurai supporters walked up and down the aisles filling trash bags. Though this is a customary practice at Japanese sporting events that has been carried over to previous World Cups, it's still something most fans from other parts of the world wouldn't even consider doing.

当赛场再次归于宁静，一些“蓝武士”球迷们穿梭在看台过道中，捡拾垃圾。虽然，这一行为在日本体育比赛中是正常之举，也在之前的世界杯中这样做过，但很多其他国家球迷都难以做到这一点。

But the respectfulness wasn't just limited to the fans. Before the clean-up began, the Japanese players lined up and bowed to their loyal supporters. Though players often applaud their fans after a match, the world would be a slightly better place if more people felt the desire to pick up after their neighbor and do the occasional group bow.

另外，尊重并不止于这些球迷们。在他们开始清扫之前，日本球员排成一排，集体向自己的支持者们鞠躬致谢。如果球场内能多点日本队球迷和球员之间这样的礼遇和文明，世界杯的比赛也会更加美好。
