Japan FA vice-president Takeshi Okada quits over World Cup responses

Takeshi Okada, who coached Japan at the 1998 and 2010 World Cups, has resigned as vice-president of the Japan Football Association. He said the 'series of responses' to controversies surrounding the World Cup did not align with his personal values. His exit came a week after the Asian Football Confederation's president said the region backed Gianni Infantino's bid for re-election as FIFA president.
