The game ended at this scoreline but it was Hungary who were triumphant in the round-robin tournament after their win a week earlier in Fukuoka. Nakayama became a J.League legend once scoring 36 goals in a season and his international career ended with an impressive 21 goals to his name after 53 appearances. Like the player the shirt entered the hall-of-fame thanks to its superb stand-out design pattern that runs across the sleeve, front and back.
Correct player size print professionally heat pressed, made by Descente in Japan under Adidas licence, design not commercially available in long sleeved, swapped with a USA player and comes from their collection.
