Coach TAKAKURA Asako's Comment

The Norway Women's National Team has led the way in women’s football for many years, winning the title at the FIFA Women’s World Cup in 1995 and the gold medal at the Sydney Olympics in 2000. When I was playing as a player, there were plenty of players from the Norway Women's National Team in the Japanese league, and I am very grateful to be given the opportunity to face such powerhouse with great history. The team consist a powerful striker named Ada Hegerberg, who has been nominated as the Best FIFA Women's Player this year, and our defence will certainly be presented with a great challenge. With both sides already clinching the FIFA World Cup, this match represents a great opportunity to strengthen each team. We hope that many people can come watch this wonderful match-up at Bird Stadium.
