Merchandise of the Japanese and South Korean teams is high in demand after both Asian nations advanced to the World Cup knockout stage.

Together with Australia, which later crashed out of the tournament after losing to Argentina on Sunday, this is the best showing by members of the Asian Football Confederation , with three teams making it to the round of 16.

“So basically Japan and Korea ever since they won a lot of the games, the increment is 50 per cent,” said Raihan Juraimi, a senior sales assistant at Weston Corp, which sells football merchandise and equipment. “I feel very happy that Japan and South Korea managed to get into the top 16," said another customer at the store in Queensway Shopping Centre.

Other sporting apparel shops are also reporting brisk business, as the World Cup ignite football fever and enthusiasts take to the soccer fields.
