Coach's Comment

Bruno GARCIA, Coach
This is the first opportunity for me to take a decent amount of time with the players after becoming the team’s Coach. We will have five international matches during this tour. I expect these match experiences will be good preparation for the up-coming international matches later this year such as the Asian Indoor Games and the AFC Futsal Championships Qualifiers. This is also a very precious opportunity for the players who usually play in European countries, since this is the only chance for them to join in the squad during this year. For the players who have not gone through or have had very few international experiences, I expect this tour to be a good experience to get ready well for the mentioned international matches of this year.
