The Japan national team (17th in the FIFA rankings) will face the Mexico national team (13th in the FIFA rankings). After halftime, posts about broadcasts increased.

When it was announced that NHK General TV, which was broadcast live, would become a sub-channel from the second half of the game, X (formerly Twitter) announced that it would be “moving to U-NEXT because the image quality was so bad.”

“Image quality is better than a lag of just under a minute. NHK should stop broadcasting sports on sub-channels. We will move to U-NEXT.” “The image quality of NHK sub-channels is terrible, so we will go to U-NEXT. For commentary, from Hayashi Ryohei to Toda Kazuyuki.”

On the other hand, there was a post that said, “The sub-channel image quality is so bad that it makes me want to switch to U-NEXT, but I want to hear Hayashi's commentary, right?” and is hoping for the former J-League player's debut as a commentator. There were also some derivative works, such as, “NHK Hayashi Ryohei and U-NEXT are a commentary theory confrontation with Toda Kazuyuki,” and “Amazing! Both are former members of The Spa! They are often omitted from their careers…”

“It's an age where we have to subscribe if you want to see good footage, so it's a bit off topic to criticize sub-channels. Of course, we won't be able to watch WBC (international baseball tournaments) on TV.”
