Japan Futsal National Team held two training sessions on 2nd day of domestic camp
04 February 2016
Japan Futsal National Team held two practice sessions on the second day of their training camp in Chiba. In the morning, the players spent their time understanding the coach’s aims by using the ball in a practical game format. The game was occasionally stopped and started again from a kick from the second penalty mark, just like a real match.
In the afternoon, they focused on physical exercises. The players stayed vocal, while concentrating in the one-hour session. It was YOSHIKAWA Tomoki’s (MAGNA GURPEA/Spain) 27th birthday. During dinner, the players held a celebration for him and NISHITANI, who recently turned 30 years old.
The atmosphere around the team is getting better and better prior to the match against Uzbekistan.
Players' Comments
MUROTA Yuki (ESPOLADA HOKKAIDO)
We practiced with the ball in the morning, and moved onto physical training in the afternoon. As there was an excellent atmosphere around the team, I think we stay focused during the practice sessions. I’d like to continue to concentrate in the remaining time before leaving for Uzbekistan. Lastly, happy birthday again to YOSHIKAWA and NISHITANI!
NISHITANI Ryosuke (FUGADOR SUMIDA)
During the ball training, we were required by the coach Miguel to increase the detailed quality more than before. We shared a very productive time with the team, and were more focused. Although we have only got a limited time before the AFC Futsal Championship, I’d like to prepare myself well. My birthday was a little while ago, but my teammates celebrated my 30th birthday for me during dinner!
YOSHIKAWA Tomoki (MAGNA GURPEA/Spain)
We held excellent sessions both in the morning and in the afternoon today. I believe we are getting ourselves in good condition for the coming AFC Futsal Championship. With only limited time before the opening match, I’d like to do my best from tomorrow and focus on each practice session, sharing everything in detail, so that we can improve even more as a team. Today was my birthday, and my teammates celebrated after dinner. I was so pleased that I had my birthday with this "family".
