Talking about our team, it will take some time before we get used to the time difference, but we will make the best possible preparations in the next two days. I heard that Urawa Reds are a very strong team and have wonderful supporters as well. Furthermore, I have an impression that they have a distinctive style of football. I believe it will be a difficult match, but our motivation to win is quite high as well. Right now, we are focusing on this coming game. I further expect that this will be a historic match for us as well.
Vai demorar um pouco até a gente se adaptar ao fuso horário, mas queremos nos preparar bem nos próximos dois dias. Sei que o Urawa é um time muito forte e com muita torcida. Eles jogam um estilo bem característico de futebol. Vai ser um jogo difícil, mas estamos extremamente motivados. Temos que nos focar para essa partida que acredito que será histórica para nós.

(Having played for Avispa Fukuoka of J. League) I am happy to come back again to this wonderful country. Urawa Reds are a good team, but we will make a good preparation and compete for this championship. We are reminded of all of those who suffered from the recent tragedy, but, at the same time, I believe if we can take a victory home, then it will be a wonderful uplifting for Chapecoense and the people in Brazil as well.
(Já joguei no Avispa Fukuoka, então) é uma alegria enorme voltar ao Japão. O Urawa Reds é um bom time, mas a gente quer se preparar bem e fazer um bom jogo. Desde a tragédia, nós carregamos um peso nas costas, mas seria maravilhoso para o Brasil poder voltar para casa com uma vitória.
