Beckham Putra shares special moment with Japan captain after defeat

According to Bolasport.com, Beckham Putra Nugroho experienced an unforgettable moment during Indonesia’s match against Japan — despite his team suffering a heavy 0-6 defeat in their final Group C World Cup 2026 Qualification match.

During yesterday’s game, the Red and White team struggled to develop their play — failing to register even a single shot on target due to the Blue Samurai’s complete dominance.

However, behind this defeat, the 23-year-old Persib Bandung midfielder received a special surprise when Japan’s captain Wataru Endo invited him to exchange jerseys after the match.

“Exchanging jerseys with Wataru Endo was an incredible experience for me,” Beckham stated.
