The post says, "After an historic victory against Germany at the FIFA World Cup on Match Day 4, Japan fans cleaned up their rubbish in the stadium, whilst the Samurai Blue left their changing room at Khalifa International Stadium like this. Spotless."
FIFA wrote, "Domo Arigato," in Japanese meaning "Thank you."
It also posted a picture of paper cranes left behind by the Japanese players with a thank you note written in both Japanese and Arabic.
