Chinese reactions to the basketball loss against Japan.jpg

‌

"Please stop bringing up the September 18th (the date of the Manchurian Incident when Japan invaded China) story. Looking at today's field goal percentage and rebounds, the pressure on the players to defeat Japan on September 18th was just too immense."
"We should take a page out of North Korea's book. In North Korea, if you can't play football, you go to prison. We don't need to go that extreme every single time, but while other games are one thing, losing to Japan on September 18th is something that warrants sending them to prison like in North Korea."
