Two sessions of morning and after trainings were held in Chonburi, Thailand on second day. It gets quite muggy under the dazzling sun in daytime but it is rather easy to stay in early morning and evening as none of forecast of raining was not materialized.
Preparing for upcoming match against U-16 Hong Kong National Team, U-16 squad is going to play two games on 29 and 31 August. Overcoming the series of hard training held for days, 98JAPAN is aiming to get the championship as they keep on developing themselves.

The second day training in Thailand was held under the piercing sunshine. Much different environment from Japan, I think I was mentally trained by tough training program. I managed to get over it with calling each other in loud voice.
I can see my team mates getting exhausted at the late stage of the game, which is when I have to defend the goal mouth by advising in big voice for making a tight coordination with defense players. As training match coming up tomorrow, I want to take it as first match of the championship and want to win the match with all the players united.

The form gets out of form gradually when the trunk training is held after I exhausted but I know I have to keep a good form no matter how hot and exhausted. Regarding play, I want to be much conscious about watching other side players. I am going to cheer up the squad for the final matches in the championship games.
